I am now a repeat customer at Cafe Athens. The gyros and souvlaki are always fresh, never dry. And the tzatziki sauce is outstanding (it's hard to get a good tzatziki sauce these days).

Great Greek food, the best Greek in town. It is a good place for a low-key date night. Good atmosphere, although can get loud, great food, great service!

I don't know why I keep going back. The food is incredibly greasy, especially the potato wedges and non-chicken gyros. The potato wedges had a puddle of oil under them that covered the bottom of the plate. My chicken gyro tasted fine, but it was all chicken - - no veggies to speak of. And then I chomped down on...

I've been to this place a few times now, and every time I go, it's perfect! The service is wonderful, the food is amazing, they are always very fast, and the prices are very inexpensive. I definitely recommend this place to everyone. And the fact that they have both authentic Greek food and American food is great for those picky... More

Cafe Athens is authentic, home made and just plain good. Soup is out of this world! Meals are all fresh, fast and real greek. I am from the east coast and this is the best greek food around. They also have a restaurant in Centera in Loveland, same quality and great servide

I have been coming here since it has been open and make it back regularly. Love their gyros and always crave their feisty feta app.

This place is terrible! Terrible service. Food is over cooked, over salted, mushy and flavorless too. People like this place?

Overall, disappointed after reading the reviews. Just OK across the board. The lamb was mostly tough with a few tender pieces thrown in. Meat was too spicy (too much oregano) and salty. Ambiance and service nothing special.
