Went to Athen’s after hearing so much about it recently. Happy to report it was incredible and so different from the Greek food I am used to! Had lamb with orzo and tomato-seriously so good if you like lamb. And the pork fricasse!

    If you don’t want the cookie cutter Greek food – Anthens is the place. Very traditional dishes.

    Honestly looks absolutely disgusting lol but I’m glad it was good 😂

  3. honestly the presentation of food at this place isn’t great but it is so good you just forget about it

    I don’t get the hate tbh. lol I mean yeah it’s not presented like food in a fancy restaurant, but the food looks decent.

  5. Oh hell yes, looks just like some of the homestyle meals I had in Greece last summer! Good, hearty one pot dishes.

    I can understand folks being harsh about the friscassee, the greens and avgolemono sauce definitely aren’t the prettiest thing, lol. But it’s absolutely delicious, creamy and lemony.

    And giouvetsi is just the Greek version of American goulash (aka pasta, meat and tomato sauce), so nothing scary there.

    Guess I need to take a trip to Danforth, it’s about as close to Greece as I’ll get for a while.

    You are not helping promote this establishment, looks horrible

    The challenger’s ugly food has shown us that even hideous things can be sweet on the inside.

    If they like you enough you can get an invite to their gambling den next door 🙂

    The pork fricasse looks like it has such a deep flavour – like it’s been cooking for hours

    The opinions on this post are atrocious, where are the admins at?

    These are the worst “positive review” food pics have ever seen in my life.

    🤮

  11. Don’t share such a beautiful place with such snotty plebs! Athens is a gem

  12. Athens slaps. Food is so good. Nice hospitality too.

    You know this isn’t very appealing to the eyes…

    It looks awful. Sauces splitting, weird colours. Drab, it looks drab.

  15. I guess this is the case where the food doesn’t have to be aesthetically appealing to be fulfilling
