I'm not sure what their hummus was, but it was terrible. It was clumpy, watery and had an odd taste which might as well been oatmeal. The pita bread had an odd taste too. I ordered the pork chops, okra and rice pilaf. I'd give it a 2/5. The okra wasn't terrible, the rice wasn't traditionally basmati and was okay. The pork chops were edible probably because they were marinated so they didn't come out overcooked or dry. My husband got the chicken kabobs, which were flavorless, dry, and overcooked. Overall, the food lacked quality, texture, and flavor 2/5. Service 4/5. Kritikos Grill will not be on our Galveston foodie's list.

I got the loaded shawarma fries (mild spice) and the owner gave me some Afghan daal to try. Everything was so good, flavorful and fresh. Not to mention the portion for the fries was HUGE.

It is inside a convenience store, so it's not the fanciest place to eat, but there were tables set up if you wanted to eat there. They also offer a UTMB discount. I will be back for sure, wishing them the best of luck on this endeavor! UPDATE: per the owner, the chicken is NOT zabiha halal. Only the beef, lamb and gyro are.

Having worked in restaurants before, I'm a bit more sensitive towards restaurant workers needing to break down, clean up, close down, and go home. I'm never one to go in five minutes to closing and order a meal. My buddy says, "They're open, let's get some food." "They look like they're getting ready to close. No customers. No wait, they look like they're still cooking. Let's see what they got." We went in and were greated like long lost family. They were so nice and welcoming. We ordered gyros and rice to go. The food was fantastic! Everything cooked perfectly. Definitely going back.

So the tzatziki sauce and hummus spilled everywhere which I don't think is a problem with the driver. It's a problem with the restaurant putting more liquid items in Styrofoam containers.. They also put a salad with a dressing on top which made the lettuce very soggy. Just a very lazy way of packaging to go order. Please take this feedback for better food quality, especially for to go orders. Don't use Styrofoam containers for white items and don't put dressing on top of the lettuce.

This was our first time trying this place and we were excited because we love Greek/Arabic food (having spent many years in those areas). However, when my husband asked how the leftovers packaging and pricing worked (it's a self-serve buffet), he was met with a snarl and disdain by the cashier who acted like my husband was an inconvenience for asking the question. When we finished our meal and returned to the cashier to check out with our leftovers, Snarl McSnarlson (the cashier), was even more aggressive towards me and my son. I reached for the receipt that printed after I selected a tip and tapped my card to pay but McSnarlson snapped, "That's for to-go orders!" And snatched the paper from the machine. I then inserted my card and the payment screen quickly changed to the Home Screen skipping the section to select a print, text, or email receipt. I asked McSnarlson if he canceled my receipt and he waved at the machine then snapped, "Was I not supposed to print your receipt?!?" I asked, "Do you have a problem?" And he yelled at me and my child again, "You asked for one and I printed it." I had not. My husband suggested we leave to avoid further escalation, and McSnarlson muttered, "Get the f*** out of my restaurant." as we were halfway through the door.

The sauce might have been a little too heavy, but if it is for you, you can always get it on the side. The cauliflower was different. I've never had it done like this before. It could have been a little warmer. Maybe I would have enjoyed it more. The side of spinach I ordered, I definitely would not order again. It didn't taste great. Definitely needed more flavor and it was too wet. But the lamb gyro was the best. I loved how everything was neatly in the pita bread, the lamb was tasty, and very satisfying. I'll definitely do that one again.

Best Bites takes you to Seabrook!…read more Today, while visiting my grandson, we enjoyed a wonderful lunch at Athena's Corner Greek Restaurant in Seabrook, and it was absolutely delicious! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm Mediterranean charm. The restaurant is beautiful, inviting, and filled with Greek-inspired décor. You can choose to dine inside or relax on their lovely outdoor patio. Our waitress, Rachel, was exceptional--friendly, attentive, and genuinely hospitable. She made us feel right at home! We kicked off our meal with a couple of appetizers, and they were every bit as impressive as they were delicious. The hummus was smooth, creamy, and served with warm, fluffy pita bread. We also enjoyed the falafels--perfectly crispy on the outside, soft and flavorful on the inside, and even better dipped in their spicy feta spread! For my entrée, I chose the Lunch Special featuring a savory spinach pie, served with a fresh Greek salad and a cup of their famous Avgolemono (Greek lemon soup) . It was light, comforting, and packed with flavor. My grandson ordered the Chickpea Salad , a dish he loved so much on a previous visit that he couldn't resist ordering it again. That's always a good sign! My husband selected the Stuffed Shrimp Special . The plate was absolutely beautiful--jumbo baked shrimp stuffed with a savory crab dressing, served over a bed of mushroom orzo. It tasted every bit as incredible as it looked! If you're ever in Seabrook, Texas, and you're craving something fresh, flavorful, and satisfying, I highly recommend Athena's Corner Greek Restaurant. You'll enjoy a relaxing atmosphere, outstanding hospitality, and food that's made with care and bursting with authentic flavor. Best Bites Approved! Have you been to Athena's Corner?

Our sides consisted of caramelized onion hummus, creamy pasta, cucumber salad, roasted cauliflower, and tabouli. All were very good, especially the hummus. Their pita bread is so soft, probably the best pita bread in Houston! Really made the hummus even better.
