Absolutely love this restaurant! My family and I have visited multiple times and every experience has been consistently great. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and authentic, and the portions are generous. I've also ordered lunch pickups several times, and everything is always prepared quickly and packaged perfectly. The staff is friendly, welcoming, and makes you feel like family every time you walk in. Whether dining in or grabbing takeout, the quality and service never disappoint. Highly recommend the hummus, grilled meats, soup and fresh pita everything we've tried has been delicious. Definitely one of our favorites! read more

Wow the food here was super good! Normally I prefer Middle Eastern food over Greek food but the Greek food here was top notch and super flavorful! I ordered the 2 kebab plate for $16.99 and paid the $2.50 up charge to get a steak kebab in addition to the chicken kebab. Both kebabs were perfectly cooked and very flavorful. The steak was medium and tender and not overcooked at all - it was perfect! I also liked how there were red peppers and onions layered with the kebab. So tasty! The chicken was also perfect. The stars of the show in addition to the kebabs were the side dishes that came with it: orzo pasta (DELICIOUS!), tzatziki sauce (oh soooo flavorful! I wiped the container clean it was so good!), and a really delicious greek salad with kalamata olives, feta cheese, onions, cucumbers, a peppercini and lettuce with a really yummy dressing. They had multiple slices of pita bread as well which was soft and super fresh. Overall, this was a super delicious meal and I think this restaurant deserves 5 stars. I will FOR SURE come back here! I also noticed many people getting takeout too. There's plenty of seating inside and they give free cups for water. The ambiance is casual but nice. I'm so glad I tried this restaurant and can't wait to return! read more

Athens West - 2 kebab plate 10/10 delicious!!! - Greek Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Has anyone else had trouble using the 10% off coupon for Athens West? The food is delicious but expensive, so we would really like to use the coupon. It must be used online by May 15, 2026. (Today is May 9, 2026.) We placed an order for over $40.00. When we put the coupon code in of 1BEACH it would not take it. Tried many variations of the same code and even called them to make sure we were reading it correctly. Even had my husband take it in when picking up the online order in person. Should we really have to work this hard to get 10% off? read more

I was gait with my meal and went to get a second soda, but I noticed some dirt build up on the counter and decided to take a closer look. What I found was appalling. The soda fountain looks like it hasn't been cleaned in a year. It has syrup, dirt, rust, and what looks like mold on the underside where the dispensers are. The service was pleasant and the location is convenient. This along with good food is why I'm giving it a 2 star and not a 1 star rating. As to the cleanliness, this is a failure. read more

Great value for the food. Everything tasted good, but I've had better mediterranean food. They also have no garlic sauce! Chicken and beef could be bigger pieces. read more

Cashier check male was on his phone the entire transaction Rude customer service looks like the owner was a cashier did not greet me when I walk in made a rude remark to the cook after I placed my order. Food was plain no flavor definitely did not leave a tip. read more

The guy at the register is more concerned with his phone and is rude when a customer asks for a box or extra sauce... talks fast and when ask to repeat what he said gets loud, I did not say I could not hear you I asked what did you say. very condescending I will not be coming back...plenty of other places to eat ..........foo read more

Got the gyro pita. It was stacked with meat and very good with the tzatziki sauce. The manager was the one who helped me and was very nice and served me to my table. I will definitely be coming back read more

I had a reason to celebrate the holidays early and needed to feed 15 people. We love Athens West and they offer catering! We had an amazing meal of skewers, gyro, orzo, pita, falafel, hummus, spicy feta and Greek salad! We live close so we picked up. When I got home, I tossed the salad and called everyone to grab a plate. Everything was self contained and oh so easy! I got rave reviews from my guests and we have been eating leftovers for two more days! Perfection! Thank you Athens West! read more

Athens West - This is my vegetarian daughter's plate. The rest of us had gyro, chicken, steak and shrimp too! Mmmmm! - Greek Near Me - Huntington Beach, California

Very disappointed there was NO Tzatziki Sauce with Gyro platter or Super Gyro Sandwich when we opened up the bags at home!!! Just checked the menu and Gyro Sandwich states it is served with a side of the sauce. Pretty sure it's been included always on previous orders. Food is good but this is a major mistep. read more

We popped into Athens West after a football game and we're immediately greeted by a smiling teenage boy behind the register. He was genuinely happy to serve us and ensured our order was correct when placing it. The location has ample seating inside and out, and is stocked with napkins, straws, and water cups for self serve water on the counter which I loved! They have a one person bathroom in the back of the store that was clean and well stocked. When our food arrived the same boy who took our order at the register carried it to our table. Overall the service was excellent, the food delicious, and the quality great. We will absolutely be returning!! Our kids gobbled up the Gyro meat, and my husband and I enjoyed a Gyro sandwich with a generous salad and fries. So yummy!!!! read more

Got severe food poisoning. It was so bad I passed out trying to purge. I now have a black eye and a tweaked back and can't stand up. Food poisoning is very real. Ordered my meal Friday evening. Felt strange a few hours later. About eight hours later... boom... my body erupted. read more

What does a funnel encounter about the Greek food and I'm a fast food place food is incredibly healthy. I ordered the steak pizza without onions and I ordered a side salad and then I did not regret it. I only regretted not ordering two of them. They also have a really cute order and pay kiosk Free similar to larger fast food chains. The seating is very comfortable and I found the staff to be really cool. They offer a unisex bathroom with a lock door, but I will tell you give them a little bit of time because they're incredibly popular and obviously, for a very good reason the food is fresh. It's delicious And I'm super thankful that I stopped by read more

I came here for an early dinner before heading out to the beach and my meal was delicious! I ordered their Spanakopita platter which had a bigger portion than I thought. The spanakopita was flaky and crispy and there was a good amount of spinach and cheese on the inside. The included pita was warmed up and I could tell it was freshly made and not frozen. The fries were nice and crispy and the salad was a refreshing side to the rest of the platter. There is plenty of seating inside and patio seating if you prefer sitting outside. You order at the counter or at the big tablet display they have on the side. Every order is made to order so it takes about 10-15 minutes before your food is ready! Overall, I recommend coming by if you are craving some delicious. Mediterranean food, you won't be disappointed! The quality and portions are great! read more

They over charge because they charged me 5% for using my debit card and didn't inform me. They do not charge you the advertised price. They have no prices on the board at the establishment you have to check the website. They won't give you an itemized receipt either. Corrupt, reported to SBA. It's a shame, sneaky so I don't think I will return. read more

Stopped by for a quick bite before going to the beach. The lamb gyro was very tasty. Meat was moist and not dry, flavors were great. The fries were nice and crispy. Good seasoning. Def a nice place to go for some gyro. Also love that they have outdoor seating. I can bring my pup with me. read more

I ate here in the past and didn't have any issues, but I saw a giant cockroach my last visit. I was sitting in the booth by the door and it was between me and the cashier. The employee's seemed embarrassed and killed it but I can't go back. read more

I usually order their lamb chops three pieces with salad . I asked them always to separate the sauce

Great calamari . Very large and light batter. Quick service . A lot of parking available

Stopped by here after our beach walk because we were starving. My mom loves this place, so of course, we had to get lunch. We got two combo platters to share and it was the perfect amount. The meats were juicy and seasoned well (not too salty and not over cooked). Everything tasted really good and perfect way to end our late morning walk. read more

The best Mediterranean food in town! We absolutely love coming and eating here. We usually have our go-to's which are the Gyro Platter and/or the Gyro Salad. Their portions are really filling and their meat is truly cooked to perfection and full of flavor and aways fresh! It's never chewy or hard like some gyro can be. If you order the salad plate, you'll get the crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, cucumbers, olives and tasty gyro. It comes with dressing and a side of pita with tzatziki sauce. When you order the platter, you'll get a small salad with the same fixings as the salad plate, orzo rice, gyro and your pita with tzatziki sauce. Customer service and staff is always very friendly and helpful and the restaurant is clean on the inside. Recently, with the COVID-19, the store has been practicing good social distancing and even some really nice discounts during the week when you order. I will continue to return here over and over again and I can't wait until we can dine in again! read more

Athens West isn't good .... It's DELICIOUS! I was shocked at how good and addicting this tiny place is! The Greek fries topped with steak are a home run! The lamb chops are heaven sent! The guy behind the counter is always friendly and includes tons of sauces! This place is amazing! read more

Food did not taste fresh at all like most places these days as the quality has changed so much.

Hours say open at 11am. Showed up at 11:20am and door was locked. 3 workers inside and we gave them the universal "what's up are you open?" gesture and they just ignored us. They should update their hours if 11am opening is not correct. There are plenty of other food places in the center. read more

I have been here a few times. I love the Orzo Pasta plate with Kebabs. The Lamb Chops plate taste good here as well. Athens West is another favorite of ours. Not too expensive here either. Depends on how much and what you order. Nice sporty beach looking Greek style vibe inside. Nice staff and workers here. Always a pleasure to keep coming back. read more

Their gyros was Fresh and a good portion ! The service was very good. It helps when the employees are happy! read more

Always good, reliable takeout Greek food. We get the gyro platters and it's nice that they have orzo instead of plain rice or even pilaf. The meat is pretty rich (aka don't come here thinking this is lean) and I wish they had baba ganoush, but it's an easy, inexpensive, and quick go-to spot. read more

Wait time for phone and ononline ordering is going down hill. This placed used to be normal to fast completing phone orders. Each weekend we get placed on hold for 20 min then the order takes another 30 minutes to be done. The kid on the phone says they are very busy, yet when I arrive two employees are standing around at the register watching 2 people cook. Management needs to hire more people and get adults who can multitask. The increased price and bad service is making this place more and more inconvenient. read more

Good food, fair price, portions were very generous. The place is like a "fast food joint" so is cool for a fast Greek nice food. The gyro plater according to my husband was very good, meat was savory, we read on several reviews it was salty, but according to him NO..IT WAS GOOD. Tzatziki Sauce was very very good, fresh made pitas, the salad was super well balanced. The reason why I didn't rated with 5 stars was because the cashier guys was super rude, the lady looked nice, but the guy ufff. Overall, another good score on my business trip "search for food moment". read more

Food is really good. Meat is tender. Price is pretty reasonable. Friendly service and food gets done pretty fast.

The restaurant is in need of something. What I'm not sure. The humus was good. Not enough pita bread. Will I come back. With the economy and many restaurants holding on to succeed after COVID I cannot give a bad review. read more

Outstanding Gyros, soup, & hummus (that is all I've had so far). Fast service for take-out orders, as well as friendly staff. The gyro sandwich is our favorite, with plenty of meat & really good pita bread. Stacks up to any I've had in HB. read more

Been here a few times since it's a local spot. They sell coupons for this place on Local Flavors, apparently, Athena west doesn't want to honor the terms of the gift certificate. Namely requiring a minimum purchase of $30 for either take out or dine in. Whereas the certificate states that a minimum $30 purchase is only required for take-out. So, I'm guessing agreements on the certificate don't mean anything. What's to stop you now from saying our certificate is only worth 1/2 of what it's suppose to be or any manor of change you want to make. We purchased the Certificate in good faith and you sold the certificate having, presumably, agreed to the terms. At least I know for future reference. Just want to give a heads up to anyone that may of purchased the Certificates. Cashier also could be a bit more versed in Communication. read more

The food is delicious. They have the food ready to pick up quickly. I love their chicken salad.

I stopped in at around 1:25pm to grab a quick bite. The line was a bit long and slow moving. I finally got to order and opted for the salmon salad and a platter with chicken and lamb off the rotating spit. The salad consisted of romance, cucumbers, tomatoes, one olive, pepperoncini's, mushy feta cheese and a dressing that i'm really not sure what it was. It did have some red wine vinegar in it. Definitely not your traditional greek salad dressing. The salad was very average and i would definitely not order it again. The 3.5 other ounce piece of salmon was sitting on top of the salad. Fresh and tasty salmon. This was best part of the salad by far. The lamb was was served with a small salad, pita bread , orzo, chicken on a skewer and sliced lamb. Both the chicken and the lamb were on the dry side. i dipped my meats in the yogurt sauce to liven everything up a bit. Not really much help. Very forgetful. I guess i'm a bit spoiled especially when there's an authentic place called HB Pita. +2.5 stars. read more

** They have beer and wine ** That's all I really need to say hahaha! For a "fast food" type restaurant this place is great. The portions are huge! You are bringing home leftovers. No matter what plate or bowl you get. It is a lot of food. The staff is so kind and patient with those who are not familiar with the menu. Ask for extra sauce or dressing and they give it to you with a smile. I would say the plates are shareable. The bowls probably not so much. But either way you are getting plants of good food! read more

Payed 20 for a platter that doesn't even come with rice. Plenty of family owned Mediterranean spots that will give you much better portions for much cheaper prices. read more

I have been coming here for 10 years! Best Mediterranean food around. Everyone is so kind and friendly. I highly encourage everyone to go!
