    The food and service at Athos are always outstanding! Our server, Efe, was very professional, competent, friendly, and helpful. I have dined here many times; it was a first visit for my guest. She loved it! Definitely at the top of our return visit list!

    Wonderful dining experience for our party of four on Thanksgiving Day. We had the turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Food selections and table service were excellent. Pumpkin pie dessert was an added treat!
