Athena's Cafe

My husband and I came here for lunch while in Mooresville. We wanted to support a small local place and came across Athena‘s. We were greeted promptly and politely. We ordered and food came out quickly. I ordered the Greek Chicken Wrap with onion rings and my husband had the Gyro with mixed vegetables. Everything was delicious! Onion rings were hot and crunchy, the vegetables even came in a seasoned broth that was really good! Our server was polite and helpful. Our two meals with drinks as $38. We will be back!

We visited Athena’s for the first time last night and it was a great experience. We love a good diner, and this is a local gem right here in Mooresville. Great food.

The pasta was cooked al dente, and overall the dish was flavorful. The salad, on the othe

First time ordering from here, probably won’t again soon. Just ok, very bland. Showmars has a better gyro. Chicken Mykonos was all angel hair pasta (although we asked for orzo). Not sure what dressing was on the Greek salads, it wasn’t lemon and olive oil, was red and had little flavor.

Today, my husband and I visited the establishment for breakfast and had an enjoyable experience. The food was satisfactory, and the service was exceptional. The female staff members consistently greeted us with a positive attitude and warm smiles and very lovely hospitality. However, we observed that the female servers were subjected to poor treatment and derogatory remarks. We could discern what appeared to be a male manager issuing rude behavior and making loud movements in the background and raising voices to the lady’s. After a few minutes, we noticed the servers hurriedly passing by with uncomfortable expressions, indicating a tense atmosphere. It was evident that the servers were distressed and disinterested in continuing their work regardless they kept a good attitude with all the c
