The Athenian Cafe - Altoona

Excellent food and friendly staff. I have had their pastiche, spanakopita, and baklava. All were incredible. I also think they have the best hamburgers and cheeseburgers in town.

We drive over an hour just to go here. It's mine hubby's special little place. Went last night for my birthday. Absolutely love the ladies that work there. Always kind and with a smile. Food is always spot on and full of flavor ???? ????

The feta stuffed falafel is absolutely delicious! ?

Delicious food waitresses were very helpful and knowledgeable

Authentic Greek food in a casual atmosphere. Everything is exceptionally clean and has a comfortable feel. It was apparent from the other patrons that many locals frequent this establishment. Both my husband and I ordered a traditional gyro platter with a Greek salad and fries. The portions were very generous and the food was fresh. The beef and lamb were seasoned perfectly, but what really made the gyro exceptional was the homemade tzatziki sauce. Our delicious Greek salads were loaded with fresh feta and a house-made vinaigrette. And the pita bread is absolutely heaven. We took dessert to go and it was every bit as good as the meal. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The owner waits tables and interacts with all guests. You can tell she takes pride in her restaurant. This is a stop worth making for anyone who enjoys Greek food or who wants better quality while supporting local small businesses. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options are listed.
