Athena restaurant in the Greektown neighborhood of Chicago (S. Halsted St.) adheres to its long-standing tradition of providing its diners with authentic Greek cuisine.
The menu includes staples like lamb, gyros and spanikopita. One of the most popular dishes, chicken breast lemonati, is a Greek version of stir-fry made of sauteed chicken with lemon sauce and vegetables over rice. The extensive wine list is changed twice a year to keep up with the trends.
Athena is family-owned and operated by the Tsoukalas brothers who pride themselves on the friendly nature of the restaurant. Whether it is your 1st or 30th visit to Athena, they say they will learn and remember your name.
The three-tiered patio is the focus of the restaurant’s decor. Complete with a flowing waterfall, the patio treats customers to a gorgeous view of the Chicago skyline while they enjoy Athena’s traditional dishes.
