    Gyro Sandwich
    Glenn M.

    Met up with some family members. We started out with some stuffed grape leaves which were very good. Then we had saganaki "Opa". I enjoyed a gyro sandwich and we had a spicy gyro sandwich. Service was great. We had an enjoyable time.

    Say "Hi" to Pete the owner of Mt. Athos!

    I would give this restaurant 10 stars if I could! I have eaten breakfast, lunch and dinner at Mt. Athos and have never had a bad meal. Absolutely delicious!

    We were in the Florence area for some other activities and decided to stop at Mount Athos for a late lunch. It seems like it's in the middle of nowhere but they have much to offer here. Their food is delicious, the service is attentive and the prices are reasonable. There was a meeting taking place in one area of the restaurant and's many other tables filled with patrons so it was a great indication that it's quite a popular local hang out. We had the Chicken Souvlaki pitas and were very happy with our tasty bites! The next time we're out in this area we'll have to come back for more tasty Greek goodness!

    Greek salad with gyro meat

    Returned with a group of 6 for lunch. Comfortable seating. Hailey took our orders and kept our drinks refilled. Had the Greek salad with gyro meat. Very nice. Big chunks of gyro, not little slivers. Very enjoyable

    Superb quality food at a reasonable price! Culinary excellence! Very personable staff! My favorite restaurant!

    I've lived in Florence for nine years now and only recently tried Mt Athos, which was really a shame because the food was excellent. I believe that it's because I'm not really into Greek food,so I just didn't give it a shot. But they do pasta, burgers, liver and onions and so on. So don't wait, give them a shot. I am sorry I didn't do so until now.

    A Saturday afternoon, and getting hangry. Tried another place in town, and couldn't get any service. Drove right over here, was Welcomed and seated right away and placed orders. We both knew what we wanted, in a Greek restaurant, gyros! Very pleasant waitress brought our gyro dinners which included a large serving of good gyro slices, a mound of rice, a smaller mound of very tasty carrots,and a nice little salad. Service was let's say, relaxed! We don't mind waiting for freshly made food. Everything was tasty, ample and pleasing. Old school ambience fitted the small town atmosphere. Living in Queen Creek, it's an easy drive, and worth it. We will be returning.

    Came here while we were in town for my sons wedding at the windmill winery. Food was delicious, service was excellent and restaurant was clean. My daughter had the Gyro plate and said it was the best she has had. I had the special chicken parmigiana delicious and my son had the chicken sandwich he said it was amazing. If you're in Florence please stop by here it's worth it!

They definitely complemented my burger! Britney, the manager/waitress, delivered impeccable customer service! When I got my food it was fresh off the grill and still hot. This is very important part of great customer service for me! I showed up and she certainly delivered! Thank you very much Coolidge Patio Grill for an impeccable experience! See you all SOON!

We still have nice weather so we decided to sit outside on the spacious patio out back. Our bunless mushroom burger, a blue cheese burger and sweet potato fries were quite tasty plus the portions were generous and reasonably priced too! Our server was very attentive and quite accommodating to any special needs. It was quite a nice surprise to find a cute spot to eat at in Coolidge. We enjoyed ourselves and would come back again! I look forward to returning to enjoy the outdoor sitting area in the evening to enjoy that area too! There was a little coffee shop (or something like that in the far corner) called Coyote Den but we didn't get to check them out this time but maybe next time we're here. There was plenty of street parking out front. The staff cleared the tables very quickly so everything was nice and clean even outside! Restroom was cute and clean. I wish them much success and hope others go out to check them out!

That's BS even googling this scenario they say a place should not delay your order for a later order. Won't be going to this place anymore. Edit: the owners response is asinine. If they had some big order that was before mine, they should have told me the pickup time that I requested could not be fulfilled. And if the owner can read, I stated that I walked in for my pickup, they charged me, and then told me I have an additional wait. I wouldn't go here if I were yall, if they cannot be transparent, I question if they are taking other portions of the business seriously. Now the "under new managment" makes sense.

    First time. Stopped today while running errands…read more Summary: delicious. I notice that a lot of Yelpers like hole-in-the-wall places. The little find on the corner, so to speak. Simple surroundings, but excellent food. This is one of those places, in my opinion. Ordered the Greek salad w/ beef kabob. They even asked how I wanted the meat prepared. I went for rare, and it was rare. Very fresh greens, soft and warm pita bread. Dressing on the side, which I like, because Greek dressing can sometimes be a little acidic. This was not. Smooth, with light acidity. Very tasty. The meat (see picture) was loaded on and delicious. Charred nicely on the outside, rare inside. Presented very well. Baklava for desert. What can I say - I've never really had bad Baklava. Very buttery, honey, pistachios. I'm giving five stars, because I didn't expect this to be so tasty. Expected good. Nothing fancy as far as dining, but very clean. But I don't order the tables and chairs - I order the meal, and that's what I eat. You order at the counter and they serve. The young lady was very friendly - perhaps limited English, but no one was rude. She served my food, and I forgot to grab utensils. She went back to get them w/ no attitude. I saw the cook (maybe the owner/mgr?) serve a couple and very friendly. I saw some bad reviews regarding service, so just wanted to explain that didn't happen to me. Anyway, I will go back here. Hopefully, will be as good as the salad.

We also never leave without ordering a few baklava to go & eat later because we are so full. It's a little place off Apache Trail & Ironwood. Order, sit down & they bring the food to you.

    I've been twice to this restaurant. I ordered the dolmas both times, forgetting that I ordered them…read morelast time. They taste very good. They are perfectly seasoned and exactly what you'd expect. Unfortunately you get 4 stuffed grape leaves for $6. That's $1.50 for a grape leaf with about a tablespoon of filling. I'd either expect to get 6, or expect the price to be more like 3.50 or 4 dollars for the amount. I'm posting a picture of the beef souvlaki pita I ordered. It's $9.99, so basically $10 for about an ounce and a half of beef on a pretty basic store bought pita. Does it taste good? Yes it does, but for ten dollars, I'd definitely expect at least two more slices of meat. It just is not worth what is charged. I did not get the full meal with fries but it is $5 more to add fries to your order and I just can't imagine that it would be worth it. I did see another customer with fries and at best, I'd expect to pay maybe $3 more for what they were served. I don't expect to return. It's too bad because everything does taste good. It just isn't worth the price. Also, I ordered baklava with my to go order. There was only one table there eating and they'd already been served so they were not busy. They forgot the baklava and I had to go back in for it. $2.50 for a 2x2 inch square.
