Love the Greek salad always cold and fresh and for a little more you can get it with any meat on top, I have had gyro and the chicken both were excellent and a lot for a few dollars more. They have many different things and combinations. Food is delicious and the prices are good!
This restaurant is by far my favorite in my area! I spend at least $200 A month here for me and my family! Every time I order my Gyro is always packed with meat! And every time I order they never disappoint me with their portion size that’s why I keep coming back affordable great food and healthy!!! Highly recommended! Order the fries and a Gyro and I bet you’ll be back. Thank you for always having fresh food Athenian 💪
I ordered from this spot for lunch and was looking forward to trying it. I ordered for delivery and everything was on time and it wasnt too expensive. I ordered the falafel platter with fries and rice. When I got in I dug in and it was pretty good. I wasnt feeling the tahini sauce too much, it was a bit bitter. The tzatziki sauce on the other hand was pretty good. The falafel was a tad dry but was still tasty. All in all I had a good experience.
The food here is amazing. Always fresh and delicious. It’s packaged well and the portions are great. And the steak is so tender. One of my favorite places to eat!
The food is great! And the folks behind the counter are great. . If you are looking for a good Greek place to eat, I suggest you give this family owned business a try!
Food is sooooo delicious and the man behind the counter who prepared my meal was super friendly! 100% recommend! I will be back often!
Been coming here for the past 3 years, around 15 minutes away from my local area because the gyros arent bad. I placed a 2 gyro, 2 fry pickup order this evening and came in the 20 minutes they said it would take. It appears they had 2-3 people who ordered in person and around 3 pickup orders waiting on the side. 15 minutes after I arrived someone asked what my order was. 30 minutes later a younger employee gave me my order and I went to my car. After checking the bag, an item was missing and another item wasnt right. When I went back in, I was ignored 4 times by the same employee when I politely said excuse me to get their attention. The man who appeared to be the owner made no effort to update me on my order while I was waiting and had no apologies to give for the whole situation.I understand mistakes happen and sometimes orders come out slower than anticipated, but if you dont even try to communicate with the customer and acknowledge errors, youre not doing right by your customers. BEWARE if you order from here.
Great food Horrible Service. Been coming here for years but my goodness how long does one have to wait for a cup of soup and then when you finally do get the soup it is COLD! Its not the first time this has happened. I ask myself why do I keep coming back if Im gonna continue to get poor service. Stop microwaving your soup or change the older gentleman in the back that doesnt pay attention when the orders are placed. When its not something where you are waiting a long period the order is missing items. Its almost like I want the owner of this place to contact me.
You will get lots of food for the money you pay.A specific meat was not ready, so management gave me that meat & another type for free to compensate me for my waiting time. I loved the respect & care for customers here!
I was searching for a Mediterranean restaurant around this place and found this one is with enough car park and nice seating for family and road facing high chair. Food is tasty and delicious.We have ordered Argos drive bowl, Aphrodite platter and apollo platter. Enjoyed our meal.Owner looked like a Hollywood actor and the staffs are too nice and she has suggested some food. Overall nice experience.
Good food, good price, healthy and fast! One of my favorites restaurants!
Been ordering from here since they open. Food is good but NEVER consistant. Sometimes i get what i asked and is great. But like today i got skimped of what i asked for didnt get like 5 things i checked off on. Tried calling goes to voicemail.Update tried 1 last time. My chickn gyro is messed up. Just chickn and sauce nothing else. The number still.dosent work. Some one needs to put order in that kitchen. Done
Tonight was our first time ordering from here and trying Greek food. I can say that the food’s taste was amazing! Everything was freshly cooked from the salad to the chicken and shrimp. Will definitely order from here again! 😊Had to change my rating, as my last order was missing one of my protein choices and I have called 2 times to see when to expect my refund. I have been told the same thing 2 times to wait until their boss arrives after 7pm. Have not heard back.
Just ordered from there yesterday, I am a frequent customer. Im pandemic lazy....so I door dash my food, however its always packaged very well. Ive had a variety of options never disappointed me yet. I have been there in the past, establishment well maintained
Attention ‼️If you are looking for Greek food, this is fresh amazing and so clean. The owner always greets me with a smile! The employees work so hard and the food is always exceptional.🇬🇷This place is amazing. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Go try it out you won’t be disappointed 🤤 😋
Waited one hour to get back to work with no chicken, or any of the add ins I paid extra for.
The food is great but almost every time we order for delivery there is an issue no matter what site we use. We have had missing items from our order and the food always arrives late because of a delay at the restaurant. Their website doesn’t even have an accurate number for you to call them so basically you are out of luck if anything is wrong. Wish the service was better because we love the food.
This place was good. The last 2 times the online orders were not right. Each time I asked for no onions on a gyro. And both times that was ignored. I understand it happens sometimes but this is now consistent.See how my next order goes before deciding not to go there anymore.
Very well organised and welcoming place. They provide big portions and for inexpensive rates. I liked the meals a lot and the waiters were very friendly and explanatory. Highly recommended.
If I wanna be exact I give it 3.75 stars... but Ill round up. This place is exactly what it looks like. Its a fast food style Greek spot. Will the food blow you away? Probably not. But its solid and consistent. Gyro platter was good, wish it came with pita. Greek salad tasted fresh. Little too much dressing but whatever. Falafel was eh, little on the dry side and crumbled too easily. Ill come back when I want an affordable filling dinner. But there are better Greek places within 10 to 15 minutes.
First time ordering through door dash and I’m missing an order. So disappointing because I’ve read that this happened To people but was hoping it didn’t happen to me. Really wanted to try the chicken wings
Its ok but they always short change you.
Excellent attention and food, recommended 100%
This place is great, and the owner Taso is a nice dude. I always go for the Argos Bowl. Giving 4/5 because sometimes employees and managers, when Taso isn’t there, can be inconsistent in how they treat patrons. I know if Taso was there, he would lay the smack down on them, so that makes me feel better. I would definitely come here for sure if I were you!
WOW! That’s the first word that comes to mind when I think of Athenian Fresh Grill. When it comes to their customer service, to their cleanliness, to their location, to their food, and to their staff, the only word that does it justice is wow. They are so incredibly nice to the customers. They have an amazing loyalty program to build up points. The restaurant is always clean, organized, and bright. It’s a very comfortable atmosphere especially with the lovely Greek music playing in the background. They know how to make you feel like family. Of course, you’re going there for their food. So let’s talk about it. My personal favorite is the build your own gyro. You can add a variety of vegetables, dressings, toppings, and/or meats to your gyro. It’s so versatile and it never ceases to fill me. And I mean the food is really filling. A gyro usually last me two meals. The desserts are amazing and imported directly from Greece. So you’re getting top of the line Greek cuisine along with flavorful desserts. They also have an assortment of platters, salad bowls, grain bowls, and pita wraps to choose from. No matter what you get from Athenian Fresh Grill, you will always be satisfied. Especially when you can get a decent sized gyro for $10. Definitely pay them a visit, so you can also enjoy the amazing atmosphere and some great food. Make sure tell them that “Jennifer “ sent you 😂
The food and the service was very good. The only thing I question is the COURTESY SERVICE they charge for online service.WHAT! I COULD UNDERSTAND A DELIVERY CHARGE ..BUT FOR A PICKUP?
GREAT FOOD BUT EMPLOYEES ARE BAD AT WEARING MASKS: I have been here multiple times during quarantine and I can say without a doubt that their food is excellent but their employee mask wearing policy is terrible. It seems like none of the employees were trained on how to wear their mask. Ive seen two different cooks in the back and they are never wearing a mask at all (on one occasion one cook had their mask clipped onto their shirt?). Then the employees in the front are constantly pulling their masks up and down WHILE they are preparing food. Ive seen multiple employees do this. One time when I asked for a clarification on choices, the lady pulled down her mask when answering and did not pull it back the entire time she was preparing my food. She was communicating with her coworkers, so technically she was breathing and talking all over my food. And if they need to adjust their masks they should at least be replacing their gloves after! Im not a very vocal person so I didnt say anything. Obviously I kept coming back because the food is delicious, but Im always hoping their mask policy will have changed every time I come back but it is always the same. If this doesnt bother you too much, definitely come here cus the food is so fresh and so great but otherwise come back after COVID is over.
Delicious food. Great Friendly staff. Highly recommend!
Great location for tasty greek food. Dont worry if its busy, it is worth the wait. I look forward to a return trip. The place has an awesome atmosphere.
Food was fine, too bad HALF the order was missing, and instructions (sauce on the side) were not followed. The chicken souvlaki in the grain bowl was delicious (though the amount was skimpy), and the “ancient grains” (couscous) tasted weird.
I really love this place!!!
Great staff. Awesome Greek food. Very friendly and funny employees.Update on my review since its new owner and new restaurant.Everything improved. Food is so delicious. You order like chipotle. You are going to want to pick everything.We travel to Greece every summer and the thing u miss the most coming back to Jersey, is the Greek food.Well Im glad we got this place near my house ... this is closest to Greece you can get.Good job w the renovations 👍
Was slow, the guys cooking don’t have masks on. Some in the front barely wear it properly. The pita was hard. Disappointed in my visit and it’s not the first time either. 🤷🏼♀️ Used to really like it here.
Great food. Amazing staff. Great management
Editing my previous 5 star. We have tried time and time and time again and every single time there are things missing. A salad, a meat, this or that, EVERY TIME!! Ive decided to never order again and this was a weekly spot. But has gone completely downhill and now every time I try to call, for weeks now, the number doesnt even work. Hire new people who know what theyre doing and can remember to put lamb in the lamb bowl I ordered or veggies in the gyro. Completely disappointed.
One of the best Mediterranean Greek Food I have had.Zesto Greek Fries and Zesto Chicken Wrap is a must!
I had my first visit tonight and I thought the food was AMAZING! It was all so fresh and some interesting combinations. It means a lot to say that it was all fresh as I went 45 minutes to closing! The chicken was juicy and I loved the spicy feta. I can’t wait to visit again. At the end the owner came over to ensure I was satisfied and it was great to see the pride in his business!
Just helping out our local and friendly Greek Place. Previous customer review is absolutely wrong i hope everyone reads this no one can make up policy per customer choice. breathing over your food we have been doing this for years so now its a problem? Now let me educate the customer and owner of this store. CDC and local governments do not require a chef or cooking staff to wear a mask. This has to do with health issue in regards with carbon monoxide over the grill which release grease vapors if not very dangerous and can be a health hazard and safety issue.Secondly the only person that should be wearing a mask is line staff and cash register person, however pulling down below the nose is acceptable as our nose is our key filters.3rdly if the glass at Athenian is high enough as i can remember than they do not need to wear a mask but as protocol the owner should check daily temperatures of their employees.I hope this can clarify some justification and knowledge. And o Yes i am food truck owner who has been inspected in 7 counties and 25 towns since covid.
Food was cold lamb was unchewable in the gyro. Never again.
The food and service here is great. The owner gave us baklava on the house when he found out we were out celebrating our friends birthday. I personally prefer the chicken over the lamb, but overall everything was good and it tasted very healthy. The fries were the best part. I normally dont like my fries thick, but these were pretty good and seasoned well.
Excellent quality and delicious food. I love the build your own bowl options. Chicken is marinated well and very tender. Easy, quick and healthy go-to spot for lunch. I order from here twice a week. I highly recommend this place!
Never disappoints! Fresh tasty affordable and good portion size. The Greek brownie tho-oh my Goodness!!
Awesome food!!!!!!!!!!The best Greek food I’ve had.. Love their Pita wraps(whichever I’ve ordered)..Haven’t had such tender wings with crispy crust..Don’t miss the Baklava and Nut Rolls(I haven’t tried the other ones...) The perfect amount of sweetness...Even my friend from NY loves this place.. He has visited 4-5 times...The management is super friendly as well!!Overall wonderful experience!!
1st time visiting. The place was clean and everyone was nice what more could I ask for. I ordered the goddess salad with steak instead of chicken and it was delicious. Will return again.
Love this place! Very good quality food and tastes great 👌 - good prices as well. I recommend something between lemon potatoes, beef & lamb gyro, spicy feta, gigantes, maybe cauliflower rice.
Ordered from Uber Eats. Food came fast and was delicious and fresh. Lots of healthy options. Definitely will order again!
Ordered online for pickup. Totally screwed up the order. Ordered side of fries, nope put on gyros instead. Ordered sauce on side, put it on the gyros. Noticed before leaving, ask to remake the 2 gyros as requested and side fries. Of, course received the fries, but the 2 gyros were the same with the sauce still on them so they just pulled the fries out of the incorrect ones and didnt make new ones. Also, no sauce on the side. Now, I could have walked out initially only paying $24 for the 2 incorrect gyros, which had added meat by the way, and my yai yai platter. The price was what made me question the order in the first place since it should have been almost twice as much, but Im way too honest for that. Also, telling me that isnt what I ordered when I received a detailed receipt of said order via email is comical in itself. Just carefully read the online orders please. Left a tip for the cooks anyway during these trying times.
Good food and good customer service. If you never taste any of the other items, they will give you a small plastic spoon or plastic cup to taste it. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Best Greek food I’ve had in years I’ve been looking for Greek food since I’ve moved to nj and haven’t been able to find a really authentic good spot. For now on I know if I want authentic great Greek food my friends at Athenian grill will always have my back.
AMAZING!!!! 10X BETTER THAN ITS GREEK TO ME. The service was good the food delicious everything fresh even the soda was great no artificial pure cane sugar. I got to meet the owner and he was friendly. I will definitely be going back and will be my first pick when Im hungry. Fresh fast and healthy
Absolutely love their food. Always fresh and made to perfection
Great place and really fresh food
I wish I took pictures. Usually by the time I remember Ive already eaten most of my food! Everything Ive ever gotten is fresh and delicious. The bowls are huge with lots of options to fill it. The steak is especially excellent. Well worth the couple of extra dollars. The tzatziki is fresh tasting. The potato salad and lemon potatoes are great too. The gyros kick butt. Again, plenty of filling and delicious. The staff is great and the owners are very friendly and proud of their food. Highly recommended.
Food good. Service horrible. Employees texting, not paying attention and messed up my order.
Great food. Friendly, quick service. New favorite thing, garlic feta spread. Yum.
I love their mini gyros! All the food here is super flavorful and delicious. Consistent. Have not tried desserts. Customer service is good. Will continue to come back.
Fantastic selection of food. Excellent quality and great service. I loved the desert options as well.
The service, price, and quality of food was excellent. Everything was very fresh and very delicious. Also the restaurant was very clean.. They do a great job all the way around.
Food and atmosphere was great, one of the cleanest and tastiest gyros I’ve had in a while. Prices is very reasonable especially with the amount of food you get. Staff was great and owner was very friendly and interactive with his customers. Will definitely be back.
Great food in my opinion. Discovered them from Uber eats and just kept coming back. I get the grain bowls and the pita wraps. I like theyre completely customizable.
This isnt a reboot of the old Athenian Grill. The new AG is worth a look. Great food. Friendly staff. Fantastic value. The desserts are amazing!
Always delicious, fresh cuisine with very helpful service. Love the healthy options and ways to customize my order. Always looking forward to my next visit.Such amazing service from everyone there and delicious bowls and platters. Extremely helpful in finding the healthiest options. Everything is so tasty. Looking forward to my next visit.
The gyros are delicious and the grape leaves are fresh and one of the best Ive had.
I just tried this place yesterday with my wife and we loved it! Food was delicious and fresh. Drinks were a little overpriced. They were very kind and helpful. Will come back for sure!
Very tasty very good food was amazing high five
Amazing Food
Wow! Just wow...I don’t normally make time to write reviews but this place deserves it!I am so happy to have such a gem in town.The “make your own Salad bowl with their Spicy chicken” Is one of my favorites!!! Followed by the “make your own gyro with shrimp!” And you can doit with a whole wheat pita!!!!And let me tell you I was able to try these zucchini fritters well I guess everything is just so good!!!
Very good quality food excellent service 👌
I have had some great greek food. This place is a chain restaurant. When I walked in I felt like I was in a chipotle restaurant a chain fast food. I was not impressed food was eh! They need to work on there food make it sing make it speak. The food I had was not good. The potatoes were crunchy the rice was dry and the chicken tasted like grilled chicken. I also had the stuffed grape leaves they were dry and tasted like a sour patch candy too sour. Are they using something else than lemon?
I always come grabbing some food in this spot. I liked the efficient customer service and well prepared food. Highly recommended.
Customer service was great and the food was amazing! Everything was fresh!
Great food! I always get the beef/lamb gyro with extra meat and fresh cut fries. The food here is delicious!
Great fast casual place for Greek food. I had the greek festival platter and it was good.
I always get a salad bowl. I have never been disappointed with their food or service. I wish them the best of luck!
I had a falafel wrap! It’s the first time I’ve tasted falafel. It was absolutely delicious! I am going to introduce it to my whole family. It’s so nice to have a tasty vegetarian choice. I am in love with falafel 🥰. Athenian Fresh Grill is the best. The food is perfectly seasoned, hot, fresh, fast and served with a smile. I recommend this restaurant to everyone seeking a healthier choice.
Simply the best Greek place around! The food is always fresh and delicious, the owner and staff are very friendly, and the atmosphere is absolutely delicious wonderful!
Yes! Found my go-to Greek spot.I got a gyro pita, greek style fries, and grape leaves (which Ill explain shortly). The food was all fantastic. They put fries into the pita, which I love, and overall it was the best Greek food Ive had in a long time.As for the grape leaves - Ive never had grape leaves before and I didnt order them, but somehow they ended up in my order. The staff were extremely friendly and took the charge off right away. Since Ive never had them before, I didnt know what to expect. They taste amazing! I dont have any comparisons, but I do know that the next time I go Ill actually be ordering them!Overall a quick pickup order, friendly staff, and great food. Will go back soon for sure.
Poor customer service untrained teenagers.I stopped at this place from its looks on outside. Looked like a serious gyro place. Not just a gyro sign. The whole building had Greek theme. You heard this before. Its not the outside but the inside that counts. And inside is waiting for you untrained teenagers bunch of them waiting around for the next guy to say may I take your order. After 5 minutes passed, a newbie took my order. He had look of he had no idea what food he was serving . The best part of my platter should be the gyro. I was dissappointed for 20 dollars paid. Gyro was very thin and very little and oily without no flavor.Included with my order was appetizer which no service crew bothered to serve me . After I finished my platter I went ask for it. The clue less teens went on short exploration in kitchen to look for it. The food the whole experience was waste of time and money. Its disgrace.
Very polite staff and amazing greek food, third time ordering in a month.
Best greek food spot i have ever been to. Just amazing the steak is to die for tender juicey and awesome flavor. This place is a MUST TRY
Staff is sloppy! Everybody all over the place, reaching over your food trying to complete orders, spilling food all over the place. Its a turn off.
Excellent overall experience! I was greeted courteously by the staff as soon as I walked in. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the girl who prepared my order offered me samples of different menu items to assist with my decision. I ordered one of the platters and received a generous portion with freshly cooked chicken even though it was getting close to closing time. I received my food quickly, and everything was delicious, including the desserts (they didn’t stand a chance, Tassos!). The atmosphere is casual yet modern, warm and inviting. I had the opportunity to meet and speak to one of the owners, and he made me feel like family. It’s obvious that he and his staff are genuinely committed to customer satisfaction. This restaurant is a must try! Thank you, Tassos and the rest of the Athenian Fresh Grill team! I wish you continued success and will definitely be back soon! 😊
Definitely adding this to my list of favorite places ever. I finally made it in there after passing lots of times. Wow....have I been missing out!!! The food is our of this world and the owners and staff treat everyone like family. The greco fries and Gyro are the stuff dreams are made of. 😊
Great tasting with variety of selections to choose 👍😋
What a amazing place. My husband and I came all the way from Morristown. The owner is a really down to earth guy.thank you so much for taking our pic. Your food is great. We will definitely be back!! We definitely had a great conversation with owner. My husband said what a really nice dude. Awesome falafel! The number 10 great! The staff so friendly. Thumbs up!! 👍
Loved it! Flavorful and a lot of different foods to choose from. Clean and nice atmosphere.
Very nice and food is really yummy! They threw in extra stuff for us and were really nice! ! Highly recommend 😁
Great place for good food in a simple way. I love the food concept. Great seating area, clean and cozy.
Great Greek food ! The gyros is flavorful, very tasty, and perfectly seasoned.Amazing deserts !Excellent spot for an authentic taste of Greece.Highly recommend!
I’ve seen this place for years but never actually went it. I noticed they close & started remodeling so it must’ve been a good restaurant if they had the capital to remodel.One day after the gym, didn’t know where to eat & a buddy of mine told me to check it out. So here’s my review.Young staff who was extremely friendly & knowledgeable about the menu. Never been to a greek restaurant to I relied on them to guide me through the process. Very similar to a chipotle style of fast casual dining. Picked out the items I’d like in the form of a rice bowl.While I was paying, the owner/manager (idk) came up to me and said he appreciated my business and if I had any questions or concerns to let him know. That feeling of reassurance that he arrived to put out a great product and relied on his customers to provide him with feedback is the reason I’m giving this restaurant 5 stars (The food was also great and priced correctly).Very simple, A business owner who values his customers will always make money.Thank you guys for the experience, keep up the great work!
I love this place!!!! The food is simply delicious!!!! Everything!!!! 5 stars 👌👌👍🏻👍🏻😀😀😀😀
I have been there several times...the falafel is delicious!
Stopped in for takeout dinner. We ordered 2 Argos Rice bowls, one with the chicken and one with the gyro meat. Both were very good. Would have liked an option for all white meat chicken (might be possible I forgot to ask). Greco Fries were awsome. Falafel was good, a little dry but overall good flavor. For desert we grabbed some baklava also very good. Everything tasted fresh, and had great flavor. I will definitely be coming here more often.
Service is super friendly, food is good, portions are generous.
Just had the best Gyro ever!
This place is under new ownership, but the food is as good or better. Its now more of a chipotle for greek food, but the quality of the meat and ingredients are much better. Also the place is halal
