  • I've been here twice so far. The first time I just ordered a bowl of avgolemono soup and an appetizer of scordalia. I have to admit I was kind of testing them. Detroit has really really good Greek food and I've been to Greece before so I'm picky about Greek food. The soup was perfect. It had the right amount of lemon and a good consistency. The scordalia was good but different than what I'm used to. They add vinegar. I went back last week to try a complete meal. I was greeted with a bread basket full of delicious bread. I was extremely excited to see retsina on the menu. I didn't get a glass but I will next time I go. I got the Athena combination plate because I wanted to try everything. The lamb was delicious. I'm used to my lamb being braised in a tomato sauce but this was extremely tender and very flavorful. The stuffed grape leaves were amazing. I usually don't like stuffed grape leaves and I was almost going to ask my waiter if I could substitute something else, but I'm glad I didn't. They had a ton of meat in them compared to rice and the sauce was basically avgolemono soup without the rice so I loved it. The pastitsio was ok, it wasn't the best thing on the plate but it wasn't bad. The tomato sauce was really good though. Just a perfect hint of cinnamon, it wasn't overbearing in any way. My favorite was definitely the moussaka. It had a ton of meat in it and the eggplant was cooked perfectly. It also had a layer of potato in it which I'd never had before. The béchamel layer was perfect too. It was delicious and a wonderful consistency. Nothing worse than a runny béchamel! The sides were delicious too. There were lemony roasted potatoes, rice with tomato sauce and Greek style peas which I adore. I have to say that everything I tasted was PERFECTLY seasoned, not just with salt and pepper but with herbs and spices as well. I really wanted to try and dessert but I couldn't even finish my dinner so I got an order of baklava to take home with my leftovers! The interior of the restaurant is really beautiful too. I love how open and clean it is and the mural on the wall is lovely. The service here is also amazing. The first time I went in I chatted with my waiter for a bit and found out he's from the Detroit area too. The second time my waiter was just as great. Since I was alone he checked on me often and stopped to talk to me when he had time. I will absolutely 100% be back. Even if I can never get my husband to come here with me I will continue to dine at Athena Greek alone lol!!
