Athena Greek Restaurant

"Hit Athena to take advantage of their outdoor patio. It’s decorated with fountains and columns to mimic the ancient city of Athens, and for a split second on a nice day you might feel like you’re there. Then a taxi will honk and you’ll remember where you are, but it’s nice nonetheless. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation

"Athena’s spacious outdoor terrace is already a rarity in Greektown, but the restaurant tops itself with both a retractable roof and waterfall." - Naomi Waxman, Eater Staff

"Many Greektown restaurants are popular but none have a spacious outdoor terrace (complete with a retractable roof and waterfall) for al fresco dining like Athena. The scenic view and old-world bites like housemade pork sausages and lamb with artichokes in lemon sauce draw crowds to this longtime spot. Many top it all off with galaktobouriko, a dessert of lemon custard in honey-dipped filo dough." - Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam

"Though Greektown might not feel the same as it did in the ‘80s, Reveliotis mentions restaurants like Greek Islands, Athena, Spectrum, 9 Muses, and Mr. Gyros." - Ashok Selvam
