    The service and food was outstanding. I traveled with my daughter for my “traveling into 50” goal. This was my splurge meal in New Orleans and I was not disappointed! We both had the ribeye and then split the fries (plenty of food). Drinks were delicious and the dessert was out of this world. I decided to eat as many bread puddings as I could this trip and this was by far my favorite!

    Great fish, friendly service, but kind of noisy, especially for not being that crowded.

    If you are looking for authentic Greek cuisine, Athenian bar and grill has all the classics, salad, kebab, fresh made dips (made from scratch daily), soups, seafood and grilled meats. All of the ingredients are of high quality and very fresh. We ordered the dip sampler, meat board, seafood board, Greek salad, and lemon chicken soup. Definitely try the soup, so delicious! Everything we ordered was tasty, but the soup stood out. Also wait staff was very friendly and attentive. Five out of five stars.
