The Take
Order the gyro platter at Athens Restaurant and swap the fries for extra salad. This spot earns a 39 Slop score because the lamb and chicken hit right while the fryer and breakfast wraps drag it down.
Real feta, olives, and tzatziki deliver single-ingredient wins. Default pitas and skillets push ultra-processed territory that most people order to signal quick Greek comfort.
The Verdict
Athens Restaurant delivers honest Greek classics when you stick to the gyro platter and request olive oil plus lemon instead of house dressing. The fryer remains the wildcard that tanks most orders.
Buy the gyro platter sub salad for fries with extra tzatziki on the side. Skip anything fried or the loaded breakfast skillets. Slop Score: 39.
