Athina by Joulis Kitchen in Düsseldorf

Fantastic!!! Delicious cuisine and top service!! Compliments

Very beautiful, clean space with nice design!! The food was delicious and the staff very kind and helpful!!

Not really a restaurant, not a snack bar. Not large portions, but also clear prices, value for money OK

While looking for a Greek restaurant we came to Athina. What a delicious meal we had. Excellent chef and super friendly staff and at least you won't be shocked by the bill! We will definitely eat at Athina again when we are in Düsseldorf.

Very tasty Greek food at reasonable prices. The restaurant is modern, clean, and the staff are incredibly friendly. The Gyros and Bifteki were delicious. I would definitely eat here again, highly recommended!

We ate there today and the meat was extremely good, very tender and nothing to complain about at all, service was quick and polite

Really bad service, the food is not authentic, only those who can't get a table anywhere else eat there.

Clean and welcoming environment. The food is fantastic and very varied. They really treated us well. I recommend it to everyone.

Excellent Greek restaurant. All freshly made and delicious choices.

A great restaurant - grill in the center! It has some tables outside on the pavement, but also inside. Food was tasty and good portions for the price! Plate suggested: Kontosouvli

From my experience, a positively “different” Greek meal. Slightly smaller portions, but excellent quality. Very good taste and attractively presented. Clear recommendation.

The food was frozen and not well cooked. Unfortunately when I write exactly the truth they don't let the comment go up normally.

Great service, great mixed grill. If only there wasn't a busy road next to the terrace...

Set to Greek music, the place is not very big but the food is delicious.

Boring food and unfriendly service. Kavala Restaurant is more than recommended as an alternative. Better food at cheaper prices, friendly staff.

Boring food with poor service… not recommended

Bad service, unfriendliness, prices way too expensive

With one of the best Greek Pita Gyros places in Düsseldorf. Today I tried a pita with chicken gyros. It was so tender and juicy and simply delicious. The staff is very friendly and you can sit nicely inside or outside.

Delicious food in a great restaurant. Price performance top. Nice staff. 👍

Here the boss still cooks herself in the open kitchen - we gathered there and actually spent a cozy evening. The waiter was very friendly and always served us quickly and in a friendly manner. Drinks were brought to us first by the boss. While we were deep in our conversation and didn't say thank you straight away, there was a sharp comment: okay then not. For food - I had shrimp which, together with other ingredients, tasted okay. The shrimp themselves had no taste. It said on the menu that it was gratinated, so the expectation was different. It's also a shame that some of the shrimp were still in their shells - unfortunate if you pickle them with your fingers in the liquid sauce. The grill plate was again very good and seems to be the restaurant's specialty. Next time I'll try this one.

Catastrophe! Raw bifteki swimming in fat, the “salad” was old leaves garnished with an onion, fries dry and unseasoned. We had to wait a long time even though there were only two other guests in the “restaurant”. We didn't eat. That brings us to the next point: “Restaurant” has no place here. Snack bar It's more accurate, unfortunately not considering the price... never again

It's not a real Greek restaurant. They didn't have any moussaka (it was on the menu). My husband ate a baked gyro that was a sea of ​​mayo and cheese. Frappe was good. Only good thing was that they were child friendly (we were with a 3 month old baby).

Was just for coffee, great people! 🙏

I ordered grill plate with rice...they brought it with fries and told me no rice and to eat it like that...they couldn't even come to tell me before serving me my food and were very disrespectful and the food was tasteless...not seasoned enough for Greek food

Unfortunately we didn't like the food, it came a little wrong and wasn't of the quality we're used to. But the staff was very friendly.

A cremated meal in the picture should not be even delivered on the client table. While multiple waiters stands and do nothing, client do not have a knife and can not get their drinks

First of all, we came to the restaurant with a group. At first everything went well until the orders came. A member of our party was not present when we ordered the drinks, so we made up the drink order while ordering the food. From this point on, the restaurant really disappointed me in terms of service. Being spoken to by the waitress was the least of the problems. The drink, which was simply a 12oz bottle of Sprite, was simply forgotten, as was probably our food. Because we had to wait almost an hour for that. The restaurant wasn't crowded or anything like that when we arrived. Towards the end it became more crowded, so that one would understand. However, at this point we had already been waiting for almost an hour. There was nothing wrong with the food. It was delicious. The service was subpar. My recommendation would be that if this restaurant is to be yours, it should only be for takeaway.

Dishes from star chef Björn Freitag, the finest tablecloths and high-class service meet a Greek snack menu. Doesn't fit together for me. The meal had its highs, with the crispy gyros, but also its lows, with a dry Kontosouvli that has nothing to do with the original. My tip would be less pretense and more concentration on a good result on the plate.

The best restaurant I've been to so far.... Super service ... super food ... super atmosphere, I recommend it ... I was with my husband and brother this Wednesday, I'm very satisfied ... I'll go back for sure ... the meatballs I made myself were very delicious, everything was highly appreciated ... I also thank the lady service that spoke Albanian... thank you

The restaurant is cosy. Food is not tasty and a lot different than real Greek style! Service is Ok but waiter hospitality is nothing to do with Greek hospitality! Price: expensive I would not recommend this restaurant!

I've picked up some super tasty pita bread to take home a few times now. The price of €5.50 is unbeatable for a quick lunch on hand and the people there were always incredibly friendly! The meat is also great. I'll definitely stop by here for dinner with some friends soon!

Beautiful place, nice people and lovely food

We ordered two gyro plates. We received two cold mini portions with RAW unseasoned fries. There weren't even any onions, we cut them ourselves. The meat was very fatty. Tzatziki was apparently bought and tasted like nothing. Once and never again ! 25€ Ciao

Very cozy, great service, very accommodating. Delicious food. Price-performance ratio TOP!!! We'll definitely be back

Very nice and delicious food with great staff

Wonderful food, reminds me of Greece. House wine is amazing. I definitely recommend it to everyone! Service is in the top

The best of the best in Dusseldorf. The food is amazing, very taste, just like on Greece. The atmosphere is super nice, beautiful fancy decoration. The employees are very kind and warm. Just come here and u will love it!!!

Get schnitzel delivered instead of chicken breast. Meat totally gristly and tough, fries unsalted, salad with no taste, a complete disappointment.

The food was really tasty and well seasoned, and you didn't have to wait too long for it. The interior of the restaurant is modern, with tasteful tablecloths and cloth napkins. However, there is one aspect that could be improved in the future. The pita bread mentioned on the menu was missing from both dishes we ordered. When we tried to order a cappuccino, we were told that it was not possible because the kitchen did not have milk. The menu of the day with home cooking promised on the website was not available. And a very strange observation: the toilet door of the restaurant could not be locked as the key was missing and there was no other way to lock it. All in all, the food is recommendable and the price-performance ratio is very good. The menu also offers many dishes that you won't find in other Greek restaurants in Düsseldorf.

Delicious food, ambience more like a snack bar feeling (probably intended more for to go). The service was friendly and the kitchen was still open at 9 p.m. during the week. All the Japanese were already closed.

For the price, too many gyros, not enough fries and even less salad, a shame

We were there for the first time today. We don't come from Düsseldorf, the store itself makes a good impression, very well maintained and a nice atmosphere. Even during the week we still managed to get a table for 6 people. Now to order the food. It was a bit chaotic, 2 of us ordered starters and a main course individually, so far so good, the food came quickly and was super tasty. The others always ordered appetizer platters for themselves. They also said which appetizers they would like and which they wouldn't (for reasons of allergy, intolerance or similar). The lady brought the plates, it wasn't as ordered. And even things that you can't tolerate were a shock at the end of the evening, despite being told about them. On the bill we had 15 euros per starter plate plus another 7 euros for baked feta per plate, although this was on the plate and it was not mentioned that we had to pay extra for it. I find it absurd. For the 4 with the platters it was about 30 euros per person, and for the 2 with starter and main course 20-25 depending on the drinks. In my opinion that relationship is absolutely not correct. Maybe we were just unlucky. Next time we only know how to order dishes as they are on the menu, then we won't have any unpleasant surprises at the end. Furthermore, one bill was charged 4 euros too much. A pity. Food was really damn tasty and you can give it 5 stars. For the price/performance ratio only 1 star.

Very good . Friendly, personable, fresh and delicious

Good and tasty selection of traditional Greek food. I was there with my colleagues and we enjoyed and liked the food there. The staff was also polite.

Food quite ok, the condition is nice but it causes a lot of confusion when ordering but otherwise it works

Food, service and prices are great, my wife is "Coeliac" and the souvlakis, Feta and Tzaziki among other things are Gluten-free it's just a matter of letting your waitress know about it. Since Düsseldorf has very few affordable gluten free options, will definitely go back and recommend.

Guests from HH at ATHINA over the carnival weekend...Unfortunately the food portions were very large! manageable 😒 According to the menu, bread and salad should be served with every meal... it wasn't available for us 👎🏼 When the waitress brought one of us the wrong food, she asked us, “Now what?” There was no excuse and our friend also had to pay extra for the pita bread as a side dish for the starter!!! A PITY!

Delicious food...friendly service...super fast...tastes great...gladly again

Quite solid greek restaurant with fair prices, reasonable portions and friendly service. We loved the offer to choose different meats, including many non-pork options. Chicken and beef skewers were tasty, pork gyros and stuffed beef-bifteki also good.

Yesterday we had a brilliant evening at Athina's! Original and original Greek cuisine cooked from the heart paired with fast service gave us an unforgettable experience! Absolutely recommended, nothing more can be said!!!!

The moment you enter, the door handle was sticky, but we gave it a chace because of the 4.7 stars review on google maps. We were dissapointed, also food was not good.. I don't get it how this people stay in business!

We hadn't made a reservation and yet the staff tried to offer us a table! Special requests are accepted when ordering, but not implemented and sometimes forgotten 🤔🤷‍♂️ Not all food and drinks are available! An ouzo as a welcome is not included! Were really disappointed 😞

It took quite a long time until we got our food. And the appetizers we ordered weren't there. The waiter probably didn't pass it on to the kitchen. The food wasn't bad, but nothing special either. Something got mixed up with the reservation too. No recommendation.

A successful example, the appetizers and especially the tuna were very good

Haben 40 Minuten darauf gewartet, dass unsere Getränke aufgenommen werden, während Gäste, die weit nach uns kamen, bereits ihr Essen serviert bekamen. Gyros total wabbelig und geschmacklos. Das Schnitzel glich optisch eher Chicken Wings und bestand lediglich aus Fett mit Panade. Das Hacksteak wurde leider teils roh serviert. Dem Hinweis darauf und der Bitte es nochmal mitzunehmen und durchzugaren, entgegnete man mit Augenrollen und Stöhnen. Das zu einigen Speisen dazugehörige Brot fehlte und musste mehrfach eingefordert werden. Die Pommes waren kalt und fad. Der Lillet schmeckte ausschließlich nach Wasser und der Weißwein schien anhand des Geschmacks schon einige Zeit geöffnet gestanden zu haben. Als die Rechnung kam, wurde leider auch noch versucht zu betuppen. Nach unserem Hinweis auf die falsche Abrechnung wurde uns plötzlich noch ein Essen mehr angedichtet. Absolut schlechter Service, konstanter unangemessener Ton und sehr, sehr schlechte Qualität! Nie wieder…Spart Euch das Geld.

I got two pita gyros chicken via Lieferando. Delivery was quick but it was very disgusting. They delivered pork. I couldn't eat it and I didn't like it. I called them and they say it's 100 percent chicken. You can clearly tell that it's pork. It also tastes different. I can tell the difference between pork and poultry meat. Well, I didn't find it tasty

Sehr freundliches Personal. Küche einsehbar und sehr lecker. Außergewöhnliche Gerichte. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Very good service and friendly.. And food is good and in plenty ! In Dusseldorf...

Super food and service !! Totally recomend it👌👌

Das Restaurant selbst ist klein und könnte leicht mit einem Imbiss verwechselt werden. Kommt man rein, steht man erstmal vor einer großen Theke und im Hintergrund dreht sich ein Drehspieß mit Fleisch - ein bisschen wie in einem Döner-Laden. Weiter hinten gibt es aber sehr gemütliche Tische und eine wirklich sehr schöne und heimelige Atmosphäre. Das Highlight ist aber ganz klar das Essen! SELTEN (!) so gut griechisch gegessen! Die Chefin spricht selbst nur gebrochen deutsch und es gab auch nicht alles, was auf der Speisekarte stand, woraufhin wir uns einfach von ihren Empfehlungen haben leiten lassen - und das war wirklich großes Kino! Und zwar von der Vorspeise über die Hauptspeise bis zur Nachspeise (warmer Nusskuchen mit Vanille-Eis - wäre ich nie auf die Idee gekommen das zu bestellen, war aber geradezu unfassbar lecker)! Ich gebe dem Restaurant und seiner sehr sympathischen Chefin (und vor allem ihren Koch-Künsten) 5 Sterne, und spreche eine Empfehlung aus, die genauso warm ist wie dieser leckere Nusskuchen zum Schluss 😋

Από την Κρήτη απευθείας στην Αθήνα του Ντισελντορφ!! Φοβερό σουβλάκι , ωραίο μέρος και πολύ Καλη εξυπηρέτηση !!

Last night's dining experience was exquisite; the culinary delights were truly exceptional, complemented by the warm hospitality of the people. The flavors were not only palatable but evoked an authentic essence reminiscent of Athenian cuisine.

A lot of delicious food. We were lucky to find this place in the Christmas Eve

Restaurant roch nach Chlor , Service kompliziert und Preise unverhältnismäßig teuer, thanks but No thanks

Five of us for food and 5 stars given. The food was fantastic the service second to none the restaurant flawless. This was a delicious meal which we all finished 100% satisfied. Thank you Athina for my birthday meal.

Gute Preise. Gutes Essen. Nettes Personal.

Tolles Ambiente, sehr leckeres Essen und das wichtigste: eine wunderbare Inhaberin mit super Service. Gehe immer wieder gerne zu Athina :)

Alles sehr gastfreundlich und lecker 👏🏻

Für mich einfach der beste Grieche in Düsseldorf. Danke für diesen schönen Abend.

Nettes Restaurant mit freundlichem Service, sieht man von außen zwar nicht so. Ist aber einen Besuch wert.

They have walk ins without reservation and the food was decent. My only concern was we were seated in the front table next to the window and it was freezing cold.

Das Essen war wirklich lecker. Das Ambiente hat mir nicht gefallen, es wirkte ungemütlich. Die Bedienung musste ich immer wieder suchen, Bestellungen wurden vergessen oder falsch abgerechnet.

Sehr leckere, authentische griechische Küche. Endlich mal ein Restaurant das zB Skordalia und zB Fasolakis führt

Υπέροχη ατμόσφαιρα , ευγενικοι, εξυπηρέτηση στο έπακρον, νόστιμο φαγητό, το συνιστώ ανεπιφύλακτα, θα ξανά πάμε σίγουρα, η Juli αγαπάει αυτό που κάνει και φαίνεται στο νόστιμο φαγητό που σερβίρει, όσες φορές και αν πήγαμε φύγαμε πολύ περισσότερο από ευχαριστημένοι ❤️

Jedzenie poprawne, aczkolwiek bez rewelacji... Jedynie sos tzatziki był naprawdę super. Baranina niedobra... Jak ktoś lubi grecką kuchnię i ją zna to się zawiedzie. Ja nie wrócę. Przykro mi.

REALMENTE INCREÍBLE , LA COMIDA MUY BUENA CALIDAD TOP , EL SERVICIO INMEJORABLE Y LA ATENCIÓN DE 10☺️volveré sin duda.

Es war sehr schön, wir hatten eine tolle Betriebsfeier hier! Sehr nettes Personal, leckeres Essen, immer wieder! Kann es voll und ganz empfehlen — sehr professionell! ☺️

Haben hier eine albanische feier organisiert es lief alles problemlos und die gastgeber waren sehr zuvorkommend und mitdenkend.

πολύ καλό φαγητό, ωραίος χώρος και καλή εξυπηρέτηση!

Der Laden ist ganz schön. Den Tisch vorne am Fenster kann man nicht anbieten, da es von der Lüftung total zieht. Nicht auszuhalten. Auf das Essen haben wir fast eine Stunde gewartet. Das geht garnicht. Wir sind in der Zeit nicht einmal gefragt worden, ob wir noch etwas trinken möchten. Das Essen war überschaubar. Etwas Salat 10 Pommes und 5 Calamaris-Ringe, für 13 Euro. Wir werden nicht wieder kommen.

Very delicious chicken gyros, will be coming back!

Essen war sehr gut schmackhaft sehr gut gewürzt und zubereitet Bedienung frdl Preise moderat Ein Besuch lohnt sich

Wir haben am Abend hier gegessen, sehr lecker und zu empfehlen, es gab Souvlaki Grillspieße, den Grillteller und ein Schnitzel. Auch vom Preis-Leistungsverhältnis sehr in Ordnung. Kommen gerne wieder!

Φοβερό φαγητο άψογη εξυπηρετηση

Super Service Tolle Atmosphäre sehr nette Bedienung Essen unfassbar frisch und lecker

Amazing food!!!!! And the owner was super nice! I definitely recommend this place if you want authentic Greek food and a nice atmosphere! I will be going back 😊

Essen war sehr lecker und frisch der Ambient war auch sehr modern die Mitarbeiter sehr nett und hilfsbereit kann es nur EMPFEHLEN!!!

Nice place good food and super service

Grossartig-klare Weiterempfehlung!

Der beste Grieche NRW‘s fast alles selbst gemacht. Durch Zufall dieses Lokal entdeckt. Ich würde es als echten Geheimtipp bezeichnen. 🥇

Ausgezeichnetes Gyros, sehr authentisch! Sehr freundliches Personal und angemessene Preise. Update August 2023 Ich war erneut bei Athina zu Gast und habe erneut sehr gut gegessen 🤤 Es gab Pasteli (frittierter Feta mit Honig und Sesam) als Vorspeise und Gyros als Hauptgericht. Als Nachtisch dann Karidopita (Walnusskuchen). Auch die Bedienung war wieder super freundlich 😄

Super essen, Super liebe kellnerin, sehr saubere toiletten und allgemein sauberes interior. Gerne wieder

Das Essen war sehr toll da die Leute die da arbeiten sind super gewesen und das Essen hat super super geschmeckt

Der Melizanosalat schmeckt wie bei Oma in Griechenland, Pita Gyros war auch sehr gut!

Top Essen. Die besten Bifteki im Deutschland 👍👍🇬🇷🇬🇷

Excellent restaurant. Nice atmosphere. Toilets clean and maintained properly. Service was also good! We enjoyed the food. Good quality for the price.

Griechisches Restaurant, insgesamt okay, aber aus meiner Sicht kleinere Abstriche beim Service und Geschmack. Gyrosteller ausreichend groß, allerdings hätte das Fleisch heißer sein können und die Pommes einen Moment länger im Fett.

Sehr stilvoll eingerichtetes Ladenlokal. Das Essen ist ausgezeichnet. Der Fisch war on Point gegart und die Bedienung immer freundlich.

Πολύ ωραίο φαγητό!!πολυ καλή κι γρήγορη εξυπηρέτηση από το προσωπικό!!
