In the running for best Gyro in town! Little Athens has a great mom and pop sort of feel that I knew was going to be great food when I stepped foot inside. The fries were fine, but the Gyro was really good. There’s more seating than I expected, and the parking is better than I would have thought too. If you like a good gyro you should try them out!

Found this place in 2016. Best Gyro around! Small quaint little mom and pop place. Has survived because of all the regulars it creates. If you want the best Gyro in town this is it. Food is fantastic and traditional deserts are unbelievable. If you don’t want to wait for the annual Greek festival for your next Greek craving give it a try.

I’ve been coming to this place for years. Moved out of town for a few years, came back and this place is still #1 in Tallahassee. The service is great, it’s a small family owned business that truly cares about the quality of the food and their customers. Ordered the gyro meal with the rice/gravy, also came with a drink (I mixed the cinnamon tea with the lemonade- which was terrific). This is definitely my go to for authentic, flavorful, fresh gyros. Food comes out piping hot which is always a plus for me, and it’s simply delicious.

This is absolutely some of the best Greek food I’ve ever had. I got the chicken shawarma and some pistachio baklava and both completely blew me away. The couple who run the place were very friendly and the food was about as hot and fresh as it could be. I’ll definitely be a regular customer.

Listen, that Meat Trio with rice gives me life! When I tell you the photo didn’t make the review, because I couldn’t stop eating it. Add a few dashes of the oil and vinegar. Please purchase some on the Cinnamon Honey Tea. Thank me later!

Hands down the best gyro in Tallahassee! I got a meal and the fries weren’t good at all, but the sandwich was so fresh and delicious so I can’t complain. You can tell they put a lot of effort in the quality of their food and service

I’m sitting here right now in the restaurant and haven’t even fully finished my food while writing this 5 star review. I almost never write restaurant reviews either, but I had to give this place 5 stars. I’ve been missing Greek food for over a year and also have been having trouble eating. As soon as I sank my teeth into the gyro, any trouble I usually have went away. All I could focus on was how delicious the food was and how authentic and fresh it tasted. I had tried buying a tzatziki sauce at Publix but that store-bought sauce DOES NOT COMPARE to this homemade recipe, and I am not exaggerating. The food was piping hot when I was given it, and the baklava looked obviously made at the restaurant and not at a factory or what not. All of the food tasted freshly prepared and, as I said earlier, absolutely delicious. I didn’t realize how much I was missing real Greek food. A piece of baklava, a lamb gyro with no side, and a spinach cheese pie appetizer (I didn’t buy a drink) was about $20, which is not too bad (especially considering the amazing quality of this food). I highly suggest trying the lamb gyro and baklava especially, and I will for sure be eating here again! Pay attention to the restaurant hours because this restaurant does close at 4 pm, I asked to make sure since I was confused by the sign outside. I walked in at 3 pm on a Wednesday during finals week and it wasn’t too busy! Will for sure be taking my dad here the next time he visits me; he loves finding the best places to eat wherever he travels, and he will not be disappointed here! I’m considering even buying some leftovers to eat later for dinner. I wish this place was open later since I have late classes and I would eat here all the time if it was!

Little Athens has the best gyro in Tallahassee!! It’s right across from campus so it’s convenient for students and the price is not bad for all the food. The meat is delicious and it is piled high with all the extras you could need. The fries are seasoned very well. I have also had the pita fries and they are good, I think I prefer the regular. The Honey Cinnamon tea they make is amazing! It is sweet and is so refreshing!

The food was nasty. Fries were very oily and did have not enough salt. The food was bland and not appetizing at all. An old lady behind the counter was rude and walked away half way while I was asking her a question. She also began arguing with the older gentleman behind the counter. I don’t get where the high ratings come from, the food was not good at all.
