New Athens Grill

Modern Greek cuisine echoes ancient traditions by incorporating the basic ingredients of olive oil, olives, cheeses, bread, grains, beans, herbs, and vegetables. In its purest form, these foods are the backbone of the Mediterranean diet. Also borrowed from antiquity is the very social nature of Greek dining. Small dishes known as Mezedes are eaten in Ouzeries and Mezedopolion in a relaxed atmosphere blending seasonal dishes with lively conversation. Savory pies, meats and fish are enjoyed, often followed by traditional pastries and cookies. As common practice, sweets are offered in Greek homes as a sign of hospitality. So we invite you to sit back, relax and enjoy a taste of Greece here at Athens Grill.
