Athens Restaurant

Grilled Octopus

Charred tentacles with a tender pull and smoky depth, usually dressed with olive oil, lemon, and capers — a benchmark dish for any Greek seafood house

Whole Grilled Fish

Market-fresh fish (sea bass or bream typically) grilled whole and served with lemon and herbs — ordered by weight, priced accordingly, and worth every dollar

Calamari

Tender squid rings with a light, crisp batter — a reliable opener that holds up well here compared to lesser versions on the strip

Saganaki

Pan-fried Greek cheese arriving table-side with a dramatic flame, salty and rich with a golden crust

Tzatziki

Cool, thick yogurt with cucumber and garlic — a properly made version that earns its place as the table's anchor

Spanakopita

Flaky phyllo triangles filled with spinach and feta — a crowd-pleasing classic done competently

Grilled Shrimp

Large prawns grilled with garlic, lemon, and olive oil — simple preparation that lets the quality of the seafood speak

Moussaka

Layered eggplant and ground meat baked with béchamel — a hearty, old-school rendition for diners not in a seafood mood
