      Super pleased with this establishment. Order the chicken shish bowl, mint lemonade, pita with eggplant dip and hummus, and rice pudding through Uber eats. The chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned full of flavor. The lemon potatoes, beet salad and village salad plus super greens were also fresh. The bowl was a good size. The rice pudding was excellent and so was the eggplant dip. The hummus had a flavor I didn't personally enjoy and I am not sure I received tahziki w my bowl as I requested but I didn't even need it that's how tasty it was . So happy I found this place and will be ordering again soon

      Randomly stumbled upon this restaurant because I was in the area .

      I ordered the fried fish gyro and it was fresh and good!

      At this restaurant you can choose your protein, topping and sauce . They also have the bowl option if you don't want the gyro pita.

      I ate inside the restaurant which was small but comfy.

      However the young girl at the front taking orders speaks and understands very little English which will always be a problem for me when it comes to taking orders and customer service .

      The fish gyro was only $10 so the prices are very reasonable !

      How have I lived near this place and never thought to try it! So delicious and fresh.

      My boyfriend and I decided to pickup an order from here and we were pleasantly surprised.

      I'd suggest ordering online because they have so many options you're bound to miss something in person. I got a chicken bowl with ancient grain, tomatoes, Kalamata olives, power greens and fries. Oh and it was drizzled with tahini and it was delicious! The fries were so so so good, crispy and seasoned perfectly. The power greens mix was really nice and fresh. Everything was perfect.

      My boyfriend enjoyed his platter with lamb and shrimp too. Their pita is out of this world - perfectly soft and chewy. I liked their hummus and tzatziki as well.

      This restaurant is in a small complex so parking isn't a problem. The staff is also really friendly. Definitely stop by if you're feeling like something fresh and healthy with a Greek twist!

      Was really craving some good fries but didn't want a greasy burger. Decided to take a chance on this place that I had bookmarked a few weeks ago, really happy I did so!
      I ordered the Greek festival platter, it comes with beef/ lamb gyro, thick cut french fries, tzatziki sauce and a salad with feta dressing. I feel like the pita should come with it but it's an extra charge.
      Fries - thick cut and delicious. Definitely satisfied my craving.
      Salad - the feta dressing was delicious.
      Gyro - not salty like most places, meat was cut thick and not dry at all.
      Tzatziki - tasted fresh & homemade.
      Pita - normal pita

      Excited to have found a new Greek spot & definitely will order from here again.

      Greek festival platter, comes with lamb/beef gyro, fries, taziki and a salad with feta dressing. Grilled pita on the side is extra

      Expansive menu with a variety of delicious options. We tried the Chicken Gyro, Lamb bowl with every imaginable option, Stuffed Grape Leaves and baklava. Staff were welcoming. If you're looking for fast, fresh, and delicious Greek food (that does not compromise quality) --go here first! Cozy ambience and friendly service. We will definitely come back.

      See you soon Tasso and team!

      I love Athenian grill. I love how good, healthy and flavorful their food is. If there is a small complaint I must give,is that sometimes they are a bit inconsistent with the food. & I'll give an example: I usually order the "Zoe bowl" and every time I do, they give me something different on it, it's never the same thing and sometimes they skimp on it too lol. Nothing too serious obviously because I still gave 5 stars. But just something to keep in mind.

      But other wise, this is a place where I'd go too for lunch or dinner everyday if I could!! The feta dressing!!! Amazing! I absolutely love it and always add extra to my food

      I am so ticked. First of all, their phone number doesn't work - says "all circuits are busy."

      Second, I got someone elses sandwich. I ordered a lamb gyro and received someone's chicken with totally different toppings. I don't know if this was the UberEats driver or the restaurant...because their phone number doesn't work! At least UberEats gave me a refund for the sandwich.

      At least my appetizer was good - they got my drinks right too but the chicken gyro went to the trash.

      Live this place! Lots of vegan options with environmentally friendly containers. They hit it out of the park! The staff was very friendly & helpful.
      The food came out quick, was delicious, reasonably priced with a nice portion. I get the wrap & grilled vegetables but you cannot go wrong.
      I cannot express enough how impressed I am with everything about this place. Look no further.

      Definitely my new favorite spot in North Arlington!!!

      I was just leaving my resilient women event at my local church and got very hungry. I was craving for some Mediterranean food and found them which is right around the corner from my family's house. I'm so happy I found them, they were so nice, friendly and the food is DELICIOUS! I ordered a falafel wrap with a side of fries with some feta/mayo sauce... OH SWEET LORD WAS IT AMAZING!!!?!?! So amazing I was in fried potato heaven!!!

      The place is neat, really clean and the ordering process is very smooth. I will definitely come back for those fries. One of the gentlemen asked me how the fries were and my response was "Best decision I've ever made!".

      So happy.

      The Greco Fries are to die for. Feta/mayo/garlic heaven! Made fresh with our old family recipe. We're so happy to have you as part of our Greek Family.
