Athenian Room

Chicken Breast Shish Kebob: The marinated meat is freshly grilled to order, so that it stays juicy and well seasoned. It's stuffed into a fluffy and soft pita , along with crunchy onion .

This popular restaurant has been a Lincoln Park staple for more than 40 years, serving a small menu of Mediterranean specialties like chicken Kalamata and flavorful gyros . Read more

According to the cultish customer base that swears by this place, it’s on your third visit—when you order the juicy chicken kebabs , the Greek fries or the flaky spanakopita—that the spell is cast. Read more

Chicken Kalamata dinner , spanakopita , pork shish-kabob salad , Steak ! Can't go wrong with anything offered.

Great value for a gyro meal!! One of my favorites in the city . You can order food off the menu at the bar connected to the restaurant

You may try the gyro salad , slices of meat sitting atop simple greens, and think: “Not bad.” But according to the cultish customer base , try the juicy chicken kebabs or the the vinegary Greek fries . Read more

Very affordable Greek fare! Kalamata chicken had excellent flavor, and for the love of food, make sure you get feta cheese with the salad ! Greek fries are super worth it too.

A Chicago classic, cash only . You can't go wrong with anything on the menu.

Super authentic Greek restaurant . Food is amazing. It's a small place attached to the bar . Highly recommended!

The Greek fries are so good I can't even stand it! Really like the house salad with feta too - they are so generous on the feta

The Kalamata chicken is the best chicken in Chicago, and quite possibly the world.

Love the Greek Salad , authentic gyros sandwich or dinner . Chicken is very good with roasted potatoes & rice .

Best Greek food in Chicago! Get here early on summer nights so you can grab a seat on their patio .

The skirt steak is to die for. Only thing I've ever eaten here because nothing can even compare. Definitely worth the price!

Order a side of tzatziki and pita (if it doesn't already come w/your meal). So good! Light and fluffy w/a spicy kick . Ps they don't serve the avgolemono (lemon soup ) on Weds.

You may try the gyro salad , slices of meat sitting atop simple greens, and think: “Not bad.” But according to the cultish customer base , try the juicy chicken kebabs or the the vinegary Greek fries .

Every item on the menu is good. Great value . Friendly service .

The skirt steak and the half chicken are both amazing!

The traditional lamb/beef combination is flavorful, served with perfect crispy edges. Read more
