Athenian Room - Chicago

If we were regulars, this is a place where everyone would know your name! It's family owned and the owner and son are there greeting guests! There is an adjoining bar where you can order drinks. You cannot go wrong with their charred burgers and chicken! The Greek fries are so mouthwatering and lemony! It's a great place for families as well. They even gave us free baklava for dessert! Whenever we are in the area, we make sure to stop in and bring our friends as well!

I had never been and can see why the chicken meal is a classic. Hard to beat a half chicken with salad and fries for $15. The skin of the chicken was amazing and crisp, and those fries dunked in the chicken sauce were stunning. A little disappointed by the kalamasalata but everything else was excellent, really friendly service and great atmosphere!

The Kalamata Chicken and Greek fries were outstanding. Plenty of feta cheese on side salad. Gyros dinner was enough for two. Baklava was heavenly. No free refills on soft drinks was the only downside. Bonus was it was close to Oz Park and the 4 statues. Great photo op.

Athenian Room is absolutely amazing. Located in Lincoln Park on Webster, Athenian Room serves tasty Greek cuisine in a casual yet sophisticated environment. It is a great restaurant to have a chill dinner with good friends. The vibe is very exciting, I always get the spanakopita. 5 stars.

Came here Friday night , I’ve heard so much good things about this place , walked in there was a big wait list , the lady at the front the hostess told me There was about close to 2 hour wait , well I slipped her 50 bucks and I end up Getting the next available table so that was good , first off the steak was to die for , very moist tender and juicy got the half chicken , it was the best chicken that I even tried , also got the feta burger and dip it in the steak juices , also do not think about smoking right in front of the restaurant , the owner and the valet drivers are always keeping an eye to see if someone does and they won’t be happy about it ,
