“Cafe Athens is an excellent lunch spot. It’s clean and the atmosphere is pleasant and friendly (and they don’t go overboard with the Greek decorating cliches). The menu is fairly extensive, although I decided to go with the basic gyro. It was very good, and the tzaziki sauce (the key to a really good gyro) was excellent. I must say that the service was amazingly fast; my food arrived within a matter of minutes during the lunch rush. I think that’s the fastest service I’ve ever experienced at a restaurant with table service.” – Yelp User
“Yes! I finally realized Cafe Athens IS the former Renzio’s from the ruins of Foothills Fashion Mall and I really was missing that place. Gyros are always fresh and even the fries seem to be made fresh with every order. With decent coupons floating around online and through various circulators you can eat fairly cheap her (it’s not too expensive to begin with though). Meat is always tender, hot, and perfectly seasoned. The table seasoning is great on anything really. Service has always been good. The first time I was here I was questioning the server on their Greek pizzas and he was very knowledgeable of their menu and ingredients.” – Yelp User
“This is a great spot for lunch – my husband and I were in and out in around 40 minutes. The service was really prompt and friendly as well. Even though I don’t usually like sugar in my coffee, I really enjoyed the Greek coffee. The avgolemono soup was a little ‘meh’ to me. It was more like extra lemony chicken soup, and also had short grain rice instead of orzo. The gyros were pretty solid though.” – Yelp User

“So if you’re looking for a gyro this is the place. It’s all about the Lamb. Big seating area and you can order take out if you’d rather do that. But what makes this place special is the variety of types of gyros you can order. The Greek salads are fresh and highly recommended, especially if you enjoy the feta. It will satisfy your desire for great Greek food and it’s perfect place for a middle of the week luncheon.” – Yelp User

“I love Cafe Athens. It’s definitely boasts the best gyros in town. I love the feta, it has a strong and creamy texture that is hard to find with domestic cheese. Our waiter was very friendly and made us feel welcomed. He also made a brilliant suggestion: the glao pie swirl or Bougatsa. This is a flakey pastry filled with delicious custard. So rich and so original. Get the gyro or chicken gyro with feta and tzatiki, and get a side of falafel! So bomb.” – Yelp User

“We love Cafe Athens! We’ve been there three times now and each time we have had… 1. Extremely Friendly Service 2. Delicious Food 3. Very speedy cook times on our food. As someone who enjoyed eating Gyros in the city of Athens when I visited a few years ago, I am always searching for a place that can compare to those delicious pita “sandwiches” that I long for. Cafe Athens comes very close. Their gyro with tsatziki, feta, and “hot and spicy” (jalapenos) is wonderful: flavorful and HUGE. Last time we were there, the cook also sent us out a free plate of piping hot fries, seasoned with delicious Greek seasoning. He came out to check on our meal and make sure everything was great. We love going there and will keep going for delicious Gyros!” – Yelp User

“Great lively atmosphere, bright, good service and the fries – oh the fries are wonderful! For a table of two you could easily each order a gyro and then split a side of fries because the portions are quite generous. Having been here as well as Taverna I’ll take Cafe Athens any day, hands down. Definitely better prices and maybe a better value… Could easily do a casual business lunch here or a date night dinner. Not the most upscale place but man their food is good! Enjoyable experience all-around, every time I come here.” – Yelp User
“Came here for lunch today with wife and 2 1/2 year old son. The menu was extensive and the food was delicious. I ordered the hot and spicy gyro plus the hummus trio for an appetizer. I verified that the tzaziki sauce was made with a yogurt base versus sour cream or mayo which was a good sign! I’ve been to plenty places that call themselves Greek, but make the tzaziki sauce all wrong, this place passed the test. The pita bread was soft and warm, the lamb pieces were thick, and the gyro got its’ spicy kick from jalapeno slices and hot sauce; it was amazing. I agree with one of the other reviews that the kids options were limited, however our son simply ate the pita/hummus and had bites from our gyros. I highly recommend this place if you are craving Greek.” – Yelp User
“Cafe Athens is fantastic place for a gyro or any other Greek food. Authentic and tasted delicious. I originally went to Cafe Athens for the Greek food, but their french fries are the best in Fort Collins. The portions are large and the servers are friendly. Try it out you will not be disappointed!” – Yelp User

“Cafe Athens is one of the best locally operated cafe’s in Fort Collins. I enjoyed their food, service and hospitality. I am not one to try new things, b/c I am very particular. But I am so glad my boyfriend made me try this. There gyros were absolutely amazing, even their fountain drink of sprite was to die for. The service was very speedy. Within 10 min after ordering we were served the most delicious gyros and french fries that were out of this world. Our waiter was absolutely amazing and so very helpful in explaining the food.You will enjoy the food and experience.” – Google User
