Athos in Freyburg (Unstrut)

Great food, friendly and very attentive service. Can only be recommended!

The store was full, good service and the food tasted very good, come back

very nice staaf and food quality is also very good

Super tasty and totally warm – a piece of Greece in Freyburg!

Big place, very crowded. Service tried hard, food ok

It was very tasty. Great service. Very nice atmosphere. Successful evening.

We were there in a large group and had to wait forever for our food. In the end it came out cold and incomplete and for some, not at all. We waited forever for drinks.

Hello Achim, thank you very much for your super friendly and competent service/catering this evening. The appetizer platter was outstanding! Many greetings from the “4 wine glasses” after the after work. Highly recommended!

The food was very tasty, the restaurant is beautifully designed and the employees are very, very nice. Thank you for the delicious food and the friendliness.

Restaurant visit from July 31, 2022 (Review is now public again) “Our secret(s) - Our quality” is how guests of the “Athos” in Freyburg are greeted above the entrance. Put another way, they would be better prepared for what awaits them because: the many qualities that this restaurant may have are largely kept secret from the customers. Unfortunately, the vegetarian moussaka we ordered was no longer available, but that may happen. As an alternative, a starter plate is recommended, although it is not vegetarian at all, as is evident when served: meatballs and fish cream cheerfully decorate the plate. The communication between the operating staff and the kitchen appears to lack quality. The starter salad for the other main course is brought twice, so the coordination between them also has certain quality deficiencies. The biggest problem of this place, however: the boss. - He's constantly running around the guests, making a loud noise, pulling weeds out of plant pots here and there or collecting cutlery that one of his employees had previously distributed on the tables. Of course he is also there to collect... - When he has nothing to do, he enjoys whistling and hollering over the heads of his guests when he recognizes a familiar face on the street. Since it seems to be the busiest and noisiest street in Freyburg, this happens quite often. - A couple of guests are sent outside from the interior or the existing winter garden; after all, in summer you shouldn't sit in the winter garden (author's note: wasps are of course not an argument for indoor dining...). The guest's remark that she would now like to leave is met with a laugh. A few minutes later, the boss begins to warn other arriving guests that it would soon rain and that he would then retract the awning covering the terrace, to the delight of all the guests eating or waiting, including of course the couple who had just been driven outside. - When asked about the unfortunate outcome of the vegetarian order when paying, he unleashes a cascade of explanations and justifications, which include: 1. Many dishes are no longer available on Sundays (Author's tip: If it is not possible to plan for a holiday weekend, perhaps you should not open continuously on the weekend...) 2. Fish is vegetarian 3. The serving staff has no authority to suggest alternative dishes because: "They don't know what's on the plate." 4. Variations on or information about dishes cannot be taken into account in the kitchen, as only the numbers on the menu are used there. To be on the safe side, I would like to emphasize at this point that I have described a stay of around 1 1/2 hours up to this point... It turns out that good food - and it's really good there in itself - can't be edible if there's so much wrong with it... ...especially if the fish stinks from the head. I can't understand the good reviews, maybe apart from the food. Clear non-recommendation.

There were 4 of us here on a Friday and it was well attended. Unfortunately the staff was a bit overwhelmed and there weren't enough service staff. Service was friendly but wait times were long and we had 4 different cellars in that time. The food was good so far, except for the side salads (boring and watery), the starter platter was very good. I still recommend the Athos 👍🏻

A very beautiful restaurant, the service is excellent 🤩 and the food is very delicious 🤩🤩🤩🤩 🍷 drinks 🍸 delicious

So-so… Food is rather mediocre, small portions, high prices. Service makes an effort, but is rather lackluster. It was much better with the previous owner.

After the change of ownership, the Greek restaurant is highly recommended, it was a really nice evening. Friendly service and a nice atmosphere, the food was extremely tasty.

Unfortunately, the change in operator didn't do any good for the quality of the food. Staff friendly and quick. We were there on Friday evening, the restaurant was full and therefore it was very loud..

Since the new owner changed.. everything is different and top.. mega delicious.. great ambience.. nice staff, very attentive.. everything is harmonious.. I would like to go there again

Very tasty food and attentive, friendly service... We would love to come back.

Thank you for a wonderful evening with very friendly and nice service and delicious food. Gladly again :)

Food was very tasty. The staff was very friendly. Didn't have to wait long either. The price was also very reasonable. We'll definitely be back.

We visited this Greek restaurant for the first time while we were passing through. We really liked the atmosphere and the service, and there was nothing to complain about with the food either. A clear recommendation from me. 😀

Today we were at Athos in Freyburg. The food was super tasty (grilled trout). The employees are super nice. We can warmly recommend the restaurant. Thank you very much, dear Athos team.👍

Simply perfect, nothing more can be said. Staff super nice. Food super tasty and beautifully prepared.

We like going here. The food, service and ambience are great 👍 keep it up.

Absolutely recommended. Great service. Food came quickly. Extra wishes all fulfilled. We'd love to come back

I can only recommend the great food, the service is always great and very friendly. The atmosphere is decorated with a lot of love. If you don't try, you're missing out.

Phew... I don't even know where to start. We ate here in a larger group and what can I say: it was a complete disaster. For a long time there was neither ouzo nor anything normal to drink for the descendants. One had to hope that a waiter would come to our corner to order. After repeated inquiries about the ouzo, they said there were no more glasses. (?!) But then they were so friendly and put a half-open bottle of ouzo on the table. When the food was brought, the scampies were forgotten in one meal (despite the fact that this dish was ordered 3 times (!)) and another was simply completely forgotten. When this was brought in, the food wasn't quite cooked yet, so it had to be taken back to the kitchen. When the dessert was brought, one was forgotten again and after repeated inquiries they suddenly said there were no more plates. (?!) It was then served on another plate. To say something positive: The food itself was very tasty and the portions were completely sufficient. The atmosphere is very cozy and invites you to feel good. All in all, this was my first and last visit.

Today we ate at Athos Palace for the first time since the change of ownership and we were thrilled. The service is friendly, considerate and accommodating. The food was warm and on point. The price is almost too cheap compared to the excellent service and quality of the food. We would like to thank you very much for the evening, especially Taransit Singh, and look forward to the next time. Great recommendation!

Hello So I wanted to leave some feedback from yesterday. I was very surprised in a positive sense of course It was all very, very tasty Everything went very quickly. I'm always happy to recommend it. 😁😊

The service and the staff are really great 👍, the food is also good and the ambience is plain and simple but great ✌️ stop by yourself and enjoy it.🍻

Achim, my goodness, it was very tasty, keep it up, we'll come to you more often now, kind regards, Ronny and Jeannine

We felt very comfortable, the staff were well looked after and everyone was very friendly.👍🏻 Ambience modern, we were very satisfied with everything and would like to come back.☺️ It was a very nice evening 🥂

I absolutely have to write this review because I can't understand the 3.8 star rating!!! It was just really beautiful there!!!! Friendly welcome, Ouzo as a greeting, prompt service, great ambience (live music!), Ouzo as a farewell, well and the most important thing: mega delicious food!!! We're not from Freyburg, but we'll definitely come back!

I quote my son: “…I haven’t had such a delicious gyro in a long time…”! It was very tasty, beautifully prepared and the staff was very friendly.

Mit grossen Erwartungen nach dem Wechsel des Wirtes haben wir die Gaststätte besucht. Eine überaus freundliche Bedienung. Essen war o.k.Alle unserer Gäste waren zufrieden. Weiter so!!!

So I can say that everything has improved. Food, service, friendly and everything is very nice. Keep it up….I can only recommend it!!!!

An ideal place with family and friends - the food is delicious and plentiful. Fast and cheerful service. I will always come back.

The food was very tasty and everyone was very friendly. We'll be back,,👍👍 Thank you very much

Once and never again. The boss should think about a job change. He has no place in the catering industry. Just cheeky

Yesterday we had dinner in Athos, it was very tasty, you can see that the chef feels like eating, thank you Athos team

Today we were six adults and a small child and were very enthusiastic: delicious and very plentiful food, freshly prepared and very tasty. Service was super friendly, very attentive and accommodating. Now this restaurant is worth visiting again, the change of operator was definitely worth it. We'd love to come back.

The best Greek food far and wide in the Burgenland district!!!

Hello girls, I think it's beautiful here. Eating is like being taken from the Mediterranean. Pure Greece! Service first cream👍🏻 I know where the wine warehouse is 😁 If you finally want a good meal, come here!

We were here today for the first time since the reopening, due to the good reviews and a recommendation. Unfortunately, we really can't make any recommendations here. The cards handed out are dirty and seemingly ancient, dishes with chipped corners, tables wobbling, different music is played in the front part of the restaurant than in the back, which is extremely annoying after 5 minutes. Unfortunately the food was a disaster, pork fillet, fish, gyros, calamari were all fried so dead that the sole of a shoe would have been easier to eat. Spices have not seen meat or fish. The branding on meat and fish tasted bitter, indicating an unclean grill/grate. The salad tasted like the container in which it was stored, and there was only a mini dollop of dressing. We will therefore not be coming back

Yesterday we were in the restaurant with 9 people, we were divided into 2 tables even though we were a group and had made a reservation. Regarding the service, yes it was ok with small weaknesses. The food actually tasted good but unfortunately all of the food was cold when it was served. Really a shame! Regarding the ambience, the interiors turned out great. There's a lot of rubbish outside, mainly in the car park - you could cover it up with privacy screens and put away the old kitchen appliances that are there next to the rubbish.

Unfortunately my food wasn't that tasty. Personally, my Suflaki skewer was too well cooked and therefore very dry. I don't even know the Suflaki skewer. Otherwise the service was good.

We sat very nicely, with a view of the Unstrut. The staff is super friendly and we were immediately greeted with an Uso. The food- bifteki, gyros with metaxa, Athos potatoes and rollo as a starter. Everything is super delicious 😋. Big praise to the kitchen team! If we go back to Freyburg, we will definitely come back to Athos. Thanks to the team for the lovely evening.

We used to eat there with the club, the team and the board. With a few exceptions, we were always satisfied. On September 21st We went to dinner again with 7 people. We booked a table for 6:30 p.m. The first round of drinks came pretty quickly. A little later we were complete and the orders were taken. - Starters and main courses. An hour later... some of us went out for a smoke, 2 waiters walked past and it looked like our starters, they went to the wrong tables, luckily no one there had ordered anything like that, we pointed out to them that the dishes were ours Heard the table...the tzatziki was great. Luckily the main course didn't take long to arrive because we were hungry. The pork fillet I had was dry, unseasoned, the herb butter was tasteless, Athos potatoes used to be better too... well seasoned but very soft and mushy. There was a lot of ouzo, but that didn't make the whole experience any better. The whole team is completely restructured and disorganized, but always friendly. However, as a trained man in this industry, it hurts my heart to see something like this. 4 different waiters taking orders at one table is too much...

friendly welcome, delicious food and free parking directly behind the house

Very nice atmosphere, staff very friendly and accommodating. Food was super delicious.

Great atmosphere, very nice and friendly service, great food definitely come back

Excellent service, excellent food and structurally (from the ceiling height and the overall ambience) a palace. After being assigned our seats, we were immediately greeted with an ouzo for our good friends. The drinks were generous throughout the evening. I had the Poseidon plate. Everything was cooked perfectly, the tzatziki was great and the garlic potatoes are recommended to anyone who praises garlic.

Service is very friendly. Food is good. Music is a bit loud.

Last night we had dinner at the Athos Palace at the end of our annual visit to Freyburg. However, I have to say that we were torn about whether we should really eat there. Unfortunately we didn't have a good experience there last year, but that was still the old owner. That's why we thought we'd give the new owner and the restaurant a chance and it was the best thing we could do. When we got there, a small live band outside started entertaining the guests. The boss greeted us very friendly and we felt very welcome. The food came at very pleasant intervals so that you could eat your starter or salad in peace. The main courses were simply great and the meat was really on point. There was always ouzo in between and the waiters were in the mood for jokes. We can only recommend everyone to stop by there and see for yourself. We would be happy to visit this restaurant again

It was tasty and plentiful. The staff as well as the boss were all super friendly and accommodating. We'll definitely come back again.

Everything was right and the staff's friendliness couldn't be surpassed, they made you feel at home

This is not a restaurant, it's a complete disgrace! We had reserved as a group of 15 people. And despite repeated requests that the two of them had to leave at a certain time, they actually got the food almost last and then of course left without eating! We also had to wait forever for the food. When the food came for us, some of it was almost cold, a lot of it was completely wrong and two of the meals were completely forgotten! We then found out during the meal that some of the food was spread out on other plates?! We also had to wait a long time for subsequent drinks and had to remind us several times. The waiters conveyed a complete chaos, hectic pace and pure stress! Everything is totally chaotic and nobody knows what they are actually doing. They don't listen to you! Now it's definitely enough and we'll never go here again!!

Friendly welcome, attentive waiter. Food delicious. I can recommend the Greeks.

Yesterday we had family dinner with you and were again given a very friendly welcome, thank you... After an ouzo, our drinks arrived quickly, the food was freshly prepared so we were happy to wait 20 minutes. In the meantime, the nice waiter kept checking and asking about our well-being. My in-laws, who were in Athos for the first time, were very impressed by the friendliness, the great view of Unstrut and the wonderful sunset. When we are in Freyburg we are also in Athos. New operator, test passed 👍 We wish you nice guests and continued enjoyment of the catering industry. Carsten & Yvonne

Great, nice welcome, nice staff, good service, delicious food Everything's fine Gladly again

This is not a restaurant, it's an imposition! We had reserved as a group of 12 people. Had to wait forever for the food. When it finally came, one part was cold, another part was burnt and the fillet was so fried that you could no longer chew or cut it. The ambience was characterized by dead flower pots and plenty of cobwebs including builders in the windows. Never again!!

Food tasted very good. Staff very friendly. I'll definitely be back. Thank you very much

We were here for dinner during the week. Good thing we had reserved, it was full. Visited because of the good reviews from the last few weeks after the change of operator. Great ambience, friendly and courteous service and the food is excellent. Super great concept, very high quality and very good. It's something new and that's wonderful. We would be happy to come back and can clearly recommend the restaurant.

Delicious food, we would love to come back!

The service is very good The price is also okay I would come again and again

Super nettes Personal, bei dem man sich willkommen fühlt.... Wir wollten eigentlich nur etwas trinken, aber haben uns zu einer tollen Vorspeisenplatte hinreißen lassen, welche rundum lecker war.

Very tasty food and nice atmosphere, we were very happy Keep going thanks Athos team

First the positive: The ambience is really nice and cozy. In addition, the boss was very friendly and accommodating. Now for the not so nice part: The service from the young lady left a lot to be desired. First the drinks came very late. The food, calamari was fried to death, came at long intervals. In addition, the poultry meat had no taste and was rather watery. We had to ask three times for ketchup for the children because they kept forgetting it. When the children had almost finished their food, the ketchup finally arrived. The young lady who served us didn't seem particularly motivated and seemed rather annoyed right from the start. It's a shame and we should work on it. The whole thing may still have to settle in as the restaurant has just been taken over. You should definitely give it a second chance later.

A nice restaurant with a good atmosphere in a good location. The menu is quite clear, but there should be something for every taste. Unfortunately, the food was mediocre and the service seemed very chaotic. My chicken had hardly any flavor and was somehow quite tough, as if it wasn't cooked properly. The starter salad was also very tasteless. The food for six people arrived at a very different time, we had to ask three times for ketchup/mayo for the children's fries and the service seemed a bit disinterested and annoyed. The manager of the house was very nice and accommodating. Since the owner has just changed hands, we would give the restaurant another chance, everything will definitely have to come together a bit.

We wonder how this store managed to get the last few good reviews. We have never experienced such a bad Greek. No spices were used, the meat was not of good quality, the side salad looked different for each of us, and there was no dressing. We CANNOT recommend this store.

Waren schon zwei mal, Begrüßung und Bedienung waren sehr freundlich. Essen war lecker und reichlich. Gehen auf jeden Fall wieder hin Ist zu Empfehlen Viele Grüße

Just typical Greek cuisine, everything well done, but very friendly staff

Typical Greek restaurant located right on the water. The selection was extensive, the service was good and the ouzo was tasty. It's definitely not a bad decision to eat here.

The food is very good, we had the Bifteki, just great 👍. The view of the Saale is really very beautiful. We come again

A really great greek restaurant! The food was very delicious and there was plenty of it!The atmosphere on the outside terrace was cosy with an amazing view to the castle.

Very tasty food and good service 👍👍

Super delicious food and very nice service :) wonderful evening ☀️

My wife and I went to the beautiful Greek restaurant today and we were very happy with the food and the service. The new boss is still working here. There was nothing to complain about and I am very critical. 👍 It's a great atmosphere and I can only recommend it. Many thanks for the lovely evening and to the whole team. 👍👍👍🍻

Friendly, often courteous staff, delicious, varied food in a stylish atmosphere.

Were relatively late today looking for something to eat. Super nice welcome, really great service and very good food. That was really worth it. We were completely satisfied and thrilled. Until the next meal. Thank you 🫶

Since the recent change of ownership, the restaurant is worth a visit again. You are looked after in a friendly and loving manner and the food is very tasty. We got a table unannounced on Friday evening and felt in good hands. Big praise to the entire staff!

A really nice Greek restaurant! Everything tasted very good and I can only recommend it!

The visit to the Greek restaurant was the end of a very nice bike tour on the Unstrut. We are enthusiastic about the location of the restaurant right on the banks of the river, the very tasty food, the fast and attentive service and the ambience of the restaurant. It should also be noted that the extensive menu has moderate prices.

Very nice staff and really tasty food. We can recommend this restaurant with a clear conscience.

Food was very tasty, beautiful view of the Unstrut and very nice staff

Lange angemeldet kamen wir dann doch ungeplant ins Restaurant, da hier der Besitzer inzwischen gewechselt hatte. Jedoch recht unkompliziert war es möglich am Samstagabend für 10 Personen einen Tisch zu erhalten und wie man leckeres griechisches Essen kennt, mit Vorspeisen, Getränken und Ouzo serviert zu bekommen. Das Team des Restaurant Athos war sehr eifrig, machte einen netten, jungen Eindruck. Als Überraschung zum Geburtstag, welcher unser Anlass war, gab es Platten mit Eiskugeln, Melone, Orangen und Kerzen! Das war ein sehr schöner Ausklang! Wir sagen "Danke" und wünschen dem Team zum Neustart "Alles Gute".

The food was very good, the staff very friendly. Can only recommend this restaurant.

As Freyburgers, we come to Athos regularly. This was our first time there since the change of operator. We were very enthusiastic about the service and also the food and were warmly welcomed.

Everything was perfect. Would also give 10 stars 🌟

We showed up unannounced with 12 people, found a seat at a royal table on the terrace, had a delicious meal and were pampered by the attentive staff. The restaurant is a real tip after the recent change of operator! Thank you very much, good luck and keep it up!!!

An already extremely friendly welcome at the door continues into a very, very friendly, attentive and courteous service that you don't often experience. Very fair prices, for a rich and very tasty meal. The next time we visit friends here from Düsseldorf, we would be happy to come back again.

Ordered food for school. Everything perfect. I can only recommend. Excellent. Thanks

Very nice service, delicious food, lots of ouzo and a big thank you to the entire team!!! Anytime again 👍👍👍

Just great class! The team has been partially renewed and that is noticeable. Kind regards to Achim from the Berliners

A nice restaurant with a nice ambience. The food tastes delicious. Unfortunately there are some problems with the simplest orders, which is a shame and makes me never want to go to this restaurant again.

The food was okay, it took some time (about 45 minutes) until the starter came. The main course came pretty quickly. The service from the employees was great. However, some of the group wanted to go smoke in between. The boss offered us a table to sit down while smoking. The second time we went to smoke we were turned away from the terrace and told by the boss that we were not welcome. An absolute “no go” if you offer seating beforehand. Not recommended.

A mega gastronomy in BLK It's also possible to order after 10 p.m., so kind, so sweet, I've never experienced such hospitality before.

A Greek as you would expect. In the rear winter garden you have a fantastic view and the food is typically Greek. The 2-3 ouzos on the house don't hide the fact that courteous service isn't exactly a priority.

Pleasant evening with good food and nice ambience. I will visit again. I can only recommend.

The reception by the boss was rude and not interested in customers. The employee took us to a nice place. The food came quickly and tasted good. Service from the employees was okay. The boss was impossible.

A Greek restaurant as you know it🤗 Delicious food at fair prices. The view of the river alone is worth a visit. Service very friendly and attentive👍 This time I didn't take pictures of the food because we weren't there alone but with friends.
