    #10 Chicken Kebab
    Heidi M.

    I always go to Yelp when I'm looking for a new place to try, and this is where I found Athena Pita. We both love Mediterranean food, so we thought this would be the perfect spot for Sunday lunch. It's a cute little place tucked in a strip mall that has a walk-up style counter where you place your order, and then your food is brought to your table. We ordered a chicken shawarma plate and a chicken kebab plate. One with salad and one with fries. First off, they don't skimp on portion size. It's a lot of food! We both like the rice and the kebab. The texture of the chicken shawarma was a little different than what we normally have, so I think that's why we both preferred the kebab. The fries were super good...nice and crunchy, probably the star of the whole meal!

    Wanted a gyro so badly! Came in a little close to closing time, it has been a while since I had been in the area. They were cleaning up the dining room [still quickly took my order]. I just got what I normally use to when I lived in the neighborhood, and when I got home I quickly remembered why I love 'Athena Pita'! They have fast prompt service, thoroughly cooked tasty food, so much food for the price point [always have more leftovers for later] and a very clean establishment no matter the time of day! When I got home my food was even STILL HOT! Here's a pic of my meal when I got it back home

    Love their chicken shawarma pita and come often for it. So fresh and juicy every time. I also love the French fries here. Service is always great and everyone is super friendly. A great quick spot for a healthier meal and I highly recommend.

    Gyro salad with tzatziki sauce
    Alex S.

    Food is amazing, I always get the Gyro salad. I recommend the fries as well, very crispy and full of flavor. If you are fortunate enough to find the Dubai chocolates in stock, jump on them. Staff have always been super friendly and make me feel welcomed and appreciated. They have quite a bit of seating, with both tables and booths with chill music playing in the background. Come enjoy a great experience here!

    I've never been inside this place. I've driven by, which is how I knew of them. I ordered them once via Doordash and the pink stuff threw me but all the food was delicious. I've been craving chicken shawarma so I decided to order it today via Grubhub. The order arrived within the promised time frame. The food was packaged nicely. I requested utensils but did not receive any. One day I'll order in person, but for now I order through a third party and I haven't had any complaints.

    Chicken and Steak Kebab Plate
    Gracias M.

    I love Athena Pita, and i look forward to eating there every time I charge my car because it's close to an electric car station. They offer such a great variety of Mediterranean dishes at a great cost. The food honestly taste too good for the price but that's just me. The staff is also quite welcoming and attentive. A place I would recommend for Pita and Gyro lovers

    Came here the first night they were open late and was treated like family! We got three free deserts and amazing customer service. The food is authentic and delicious this is a must stop for anyone in the phoenix area!!!!

    After the DBacks game we were looking for a place to grab an easy dinner before heading home. The…read morefirst place we were considering is apparently closed on Sundays, so we found Nick's. I went with a traditional gyro and hubby chose the gyro plate. Both were good and service was quick. If I still worked downtown, I'm sure if stop in for lunch now and then. But it was a good option before hopping back on the light rail to go home. There is plenty of seating inside, more than I'd expected. If you're downtown for an event and looking for a quick meal, Nick's is a great option.

I decided to try the $12 lunch special, which came with fries and a drink. With tax, my total was only about $13--definitely a great deal! My order was ready as soon as I walked in, which was a huge plus. The restaurant was clean, open, and spacious, and they have plenty of options whether you're grabbing something to-go or dining in. For to-go orders, you can choose from bottled drinks and soft drinks. If you're dining in, they also have specialty teas and other drink options. They even offer beer for those who are interested. They also have a Buy One, Get One Free special, so definitely check out their current promotions on the Uber app. You can order for pickup or dine-in, making it super convenient. The only complaint for to go order is to make sure that the fries are made very last to avoid the fries from getting so soggy Overall, a nice lunch option, especially if you're working nearby and looking for something affordable and convenient. Definitely check them out while these specials are going on!

My friend order the chicken....I've never seen or tasted drier chicken....we jokingly called it Chicken Chips. Should have returned it but didn't. They must have known as they were plating? Ate very little.... I ordered the lamb kabob....it was ok but pretty bland, looked like processed little meat balls. . Service was good and friendly, no owner on site. In past visits I loved their Asobuco but none was on the menu. That's what I wanted to order. There was free baklava ....wasn't looking for free....went up to the counter to order some. Then was given two out of a bunch of stacked containers behind the register. If I hadn't inquired wouldn't have known. In past visits they always walked around with a tray and offered. This was dry as well..... I do appreciate free but not dry. I was willing to pay. I probably caught them on an off night, business was good which is always a good sign. I'll give them another shot but won't order the Chicken Chips.

George does a great job working the room and providing welcoming entertainment. Celebrating a special occasion? Don't be surprised if you hear the smashing of plates followed by a loud "OPA!" The owner George and his family have been in the restaurant business for decades and they truly have a passion for sharing authentic Greek dishes and cocktails. One of his sons served me and my wife. I inquired about their bourbons on the shelf and received an impromptu tasting of a few whiskeys and given a list of personal recommendations. They include menu mainstays like the mousaka as well routine specials like the souvlaki. The food is wonderful, based on fresh Mediterranean staples like lamb, feta, grape leaves and olive oil. But the service truly steals the show, time and time again!
