We need a survey of our parking lot so we can put up some fencing and signage. Tag your favorite surveyor 🤣

Also a friendly reminder that our parking lot is the one across 7th Avenue. The other parking lot belongs to the golf academy and they need their spaces for their customers.

Thank you!!

You know when a side of tzatziki just isn't enough? Go ahead. Get the appetizer, ask for a spoon. We don't judge. 😂

Athenian Café is looking for a part time grill cook! This position will include cooking/ grilling on bussiest shifts (Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights), light prep, and keeping your areas clean and sanitary.

We need to bring on someone reliable who can replace us, the owners, in the kitchen so we can help grow the business. The ideal person will be fast moving, detail oriented, and focused on putting out delicious looking and tasting food the way we have been doing for decades.

We need someone who has proven reliability, hot line experience, a good attitude, and who is available Thursday, Friday, and Saturdays afternoons/evenings/nights. You'll get moved to the front of the line if you're also available Sunday mornings (we'll be starting brunch after we get our brewery license in the next couple months). This very likely could turn into a full time position for the right person.

We offer very competitive pay!

We are serious about what we do but we have fun doing it!

Our kabobs are so delicious. They are grilled meat (or falafel or mushrooms), grilled peppers, onions, and tomatoes served over a bed of seasoned orzo pasta (or lemon turmeric rice if you prefer). You also get a side salad and toasted pita bread.

Pictured is our large steak kabob. We use sirloin tip that we cut and marinade ourselves for all of our menu items containing steak.

Treat yourself!
