Restaurant Athen in Dresden

Delicious food, attentive service, good portions

The staff was super friendly and we got a table even though we didn't have a reservation. The food was delicious; we haven't had such a good meal in a long time. They asked us several times if everything was okay and if we had any other requests. Thanks for the delicious dinner, we'll be back.

If there were 10 stars for service, ambiance, and food, they would be right HERE. The dining rooms are so stylish, high-quality, and lovingly decorated. Not a single speck of dust, not even on the end of the upholstered bench on the floor, those corners you tend to forget. You walk into the restaurant, are greeted by the manager with a firm handshake, and shown to your reserved seat. There are fresh flowers on the table. The service is as perfect as we have ever experienced. The waiters glance quickly at the other tables as they pass by, and empty drinks are immediately recognized and offered to the guest with a friendly offer of another. The food was fresh and delicious. EVERYTHING is really just right here.

It was very nice here, even though it was very busy, we really didn't lack for anything! The food was delicious and the staff handled everything very well. Everyone was very friendly and we didn't have to wait long. Thank you very much! Best regards from Bavaria 😉

Another successful evening. As always, with welcoming hosts 🥰 and delicious food 😋 at our regular restaurant. The perfect way to get in the mood for our upcoming vacation under the Greek sun.

We visited this fantastic Greek restaurant for the first time yesterday, and it certainly won't be our last. The service was fantastic and friendly – ​​we received a warm welcome and immediately felt at home. The food was delicious and the value for money was excellent 👍🏻 We'd love to come back 😀

Super Essen und tolle Bedienung. Wichtig, im voraus Plätze bestellen!!!

A very good restaurant, highly recommended.

A very appealing, modern restaurant with very friendly staff, excellent service, and consistently delicious food. Here, the customer truly is king, and despite the attentiveness, there's no hint of intrusiveness. It's highly recommended.

It was simply perfect all around 🥰! As soon as we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff and were able to choose a table outside in a relaxed atmosphere. The service was fast, attentive, and very friendly. The food was absolutely outstanding – we haven't had anything this delicious in a long time! The atmosphere was also wonderful, and they always asked with a smile if everything was to our satisfaction. Overall, the entire team was incredibly warm and accommodating. We'll definitely be back!

We spontaneously walked into the restaurant without a reservation. The service was very friendly and prompt. Thanks to the great team, we'll be back.

Good place..delicous food..full of varieties..service great..i advice people to visit it 👍👍👍

We have been regular guests here for years. The quality of the food is consistently great, the team is so warm and friendly. Everyone is always on point and you never have to wait long for your orders, no matter how busy the restaurant is. I love the ambience, inside and outside, everything is cozy and stylishly furnished, the outside area is sufficiently covered so that you can sit outside even when it rains. It's also beautifully lit in terms of color, which is something I absolutely love. On weekends I recommend reserving a table in good time as the restaurant is always full.

Very good restaurant. Super delicious food. Large selection. Great prices. The staff is fantastic!

Highly recommended. Great service and excellent food. I'd be happy to come back. We've been there before, and everything worked out great. They had a small room for us (9 people).

We were here for dinner. We had a reservation, which doesn't seem necessary during the week. The restaurant was busy, though. We received quick and friendly service. The food we had was plentiful and tasty. The value for money was good.

Beautiful, spacious and cozy place with decent selection of the Greek food, bifteki dish was really tasty, service fast and welcoming.

The ambiance is stunningly beautiful. You walk in and immediately feel at home. The terraces are also very pleasant. The menu is very extensive, so there's something for every taste. We've enjoyed everything we've had so far. The staff is very friendly and attentive. We are completely satisfied and can highly recommend the restaurant.

I had a lovely evening at Athen. The meat was wonderfully seasoned and not too dry. There was a generous selection of side dishes: fresh tzatziki, crisp salad, rice, and fries. The portion was more than sufficient, so I could end the evening feeling truly full and satisfied. The service was also very friendly and attentive, without being intrusive. The atmosphere was cozy.

Friendly, funny, tasty, portions more sufficient than generous, but satisfying.

The food was typically Greek and delicious. It's a bit noisy in the dining area during the week, but it's okay on weekends. The interior is cozy and pleasant.

Delicious, top-notch service, and delicious again! Highly recommended!

We were there for the first time, and it was simply fantastic. The food was excellent, the staff very friendly and accommodating, and the atmosphere was also great. We'll definitely be back again. Keep up the good work 👍

Super delicious, nice interior and very nice people

Very good food at normal prices, friendly, fast service

As always, it's a pleasure to visit Athen. The hosts are lovely people. Everything about this restaurant is just right. We'd be happy to return. Petra and Gerold

So, all in all, we were very satisfied. The service was very attentive and extremely friendly. The food came very quickly despite the restaurant being very busy. We would be happy to come back.

Always worth a visit. The staff are polite and attentive, very attentive and friendly. The food is delicious as always. Kudos to the kitchen, and we hope to see you again soon.

It was a wonderful evening. The service was excellent, and everyone felt very comfortable. The staff is very friendly and fully caters to customers' wishes, ensuring they are completely satisfied. The food is delicious, and you don't have to wait hours for it. I would recommend this restaurant to everyone. Keep up the good work.

Very friendly service and tasty food, always happy to come back.

We went for dinner today...that's what you'd expect from a restaurant...very friendly, very attentive, and wonderful, delicious food. Thank you for the service, we'll be back!!!

A family-run restaurant, run with love and passion. All guests are personally greeted; reservations are highly recommended. The restaurant is always busy and highly recommended for celebrations. The selection is very good, and the food is of high quality. There's something for every taste. Of course, there's also the obligatory ouzo, and hospitality is lived here. Whether it's asking if everything is okay or the speed of service, you feel welcome and appreciated here. In our opinion, this is not only the best Greek restaurant in Dresden and the surrounding area, but also worth a visit for the good food and ambiance!

Highly recommended, super friendly service, and my dog ​​and baby were welcome. I just didn't see a changing area (but I didn't ask). The food was delicious, and they offered a non-alcoholic alternative to the Uso, which was great ☺️

Personally, I'm rather reserved when it comes to Greek food. Too meaty, tzatziki overshadows dry grilled food, etc. When my girlfriend recently decided we should go there, I was still skeptical. This is my third time here. The cuisine is varied, and the staff is super friendly and attentive. It's best to book in advance. I think I'll go again. Jammás

Super friendly personel, nice atmosphere, big portions and super delicious food… couldn’t be better 😊

If you live in the area very good Greek. A bit tight to sit on and very dark.

Very tasty, affordable and nice service. Would love to come back.

Very good food. I had the lamb shank with spaghetti. A dream.

It was a very nice evening and I have nothing to complain about 😉. We had the lamb shanks, which are always delicious. There really isn't much room for improvement in terms of price, especially when it comes to drinks, until we have to stop visiting regularly....

Very friendly staff, a cozy, pleasant atmosphere and very good Greek dishes characterize the Athens restaurant. There is a guest garden for the warm season. Due to the good quality, which has obviously not gone unnoticed, a reservation is always recommended. It is usually full, especially on Fridays and Saturdays.

Good service, nice and fast, large portions, tasty, Greek beer, very good tzatziki, great dessert, we like to go there

Best Greek food in Dresden so far

Very personable and very attentive) :) :)

Delicious Greek in Tolkewitz, reservation recommended

Athens, a highly recommended Greek restaurant that, in addition to its delicious food, also has a very chic interior. The staff is always friendly and accommodating! Keep up the good work.

We visited this restaurant with a group. Fast service, competent advice, flexible offers for all of my guests' special requests. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy everything was. The food at lunchtime was very good, everyone found something tasty and enjoyed it. All in all worth a visit, we'll be back.

What can you write in capital letters, super warm welcome, great Greek beer, super friendly service, delicious food, a great evening Thank you dear Athens team.

As always, it tasted very good. 02/19/2025 The waiters stink of sweat and the food no longer tastes good. The prices are much higher. This is how I imagine “good gastronomy”.

The food was fantastic. Price/performance was reasonable I would say

This fine Greek restaurant is now the best in Dresden. At least for us. Although we are unfortunately quite hesitant when it comes to drink prices. The prices for the food are manageable and really good. This is also more expensive in Dresden. It tastes very tasty and the portions are, as usual, large and deliciously seasoned. The atmosphere is cozy, nicely decorated and not too loud when the tables are full. Everyone is polite and courteous. You feel very comfortable and welcome. You will be asked whether everything is OK. is whether you still have wishes. Thank you very much, we always like to come by 😀

Absolutely recommended. Everything perfect. We'd love to come back.

Delicious food, large portions and reasonable prices 👍

The perfect place to spend your evening! I recommend it to you.

Excellent food with very friendly service. Food comes quite quickly.

There's nothing bad to report... Everything was great

Fantastic, beautiful ambience, delicious food and a nice family that makes every guest's heart beat faster. Here you are not just a guest, but a friend

Business is looking really good. The service was very nice The food is exactly what I was looking for. Gyros with tzatziki and rice and salad. That's how I know it. Not found here in Dresden yet. Thanks to someone who said this is the best restaurant and I wanted to try it. Now I will always come Thanks for my children's lollipops.

Sehr gutes Essen. Zu empfehlen.

Always very well attended. You should reserve in advance.

It's like coming home every time

A very nice restaurant with good, attentive service and delicious food, everything to the point. In addition, a fairly moderate pricing policy. Absolutely clear recommendation!

Super nice, super tasty, always happy. Here, gastronomy and hospitality are still very important.

I ate very well here Food was really good 👍🏻

Very nice restaurant, friendly service and the food, unfortunately radically deteriorated. Apart from the increase in prices, the quality went down sharply. Example "Bifteki", in contrast to the last visit, the Bifteki is much smaller in size, carelessly fried on the outside, too light. Instead of cheese there is now too much tomato filling. Last but not least, the taste is bland and Greek spice is completely missing. You can also save yourself a lot on food. Consequence, you change the Greek restaurant and save even more money. It's a shame, at the wrong end, the taste was saved.

The food was hot and tasty, the service was top, in and out, highly recommended.

Best hospitality, food is above average or excellent! Family business with heart and soul.

Drinks are too expensive. The most delicious cutlets.

Always great food and excellent service ☺️ Mythos beer on tap 👌🏻 what more could you want 🥰 A little piece of your favorite country on your own doorstep 😊

Great food, nice staff and great prices. Simply great

As always, everything was great, service and food were excellent. It's not for nothing that he's the most awarded Greek in Dresden. Thank you for your hospitality

Very nice restaurant, friendly staff, delicious food and perfect service. We'd love to come back

Very cheeky, very nice service 😉

The service was very courteous and always present. The food was simply delicious. If we go on vacation to Dresden again, we will come here again. 👍🏻

Great restaurant, I can really recommend it. We finished our short vacation there. If we're here again, we'll go there again.

Nice hosts, good food, gladly again!

Super friendly and I can only recommend the Gyros Special, everything tastes good.

It was definitely better, one waiter was arrogant, only nice to the neighboring table with the women... For a handful of fries and chicken, 20€, another fries ordered to fill you up, then 3x mayonnaise was charged extra... Of course you still got a generous tip because the other waiter was nice, but first try other Greek food. Thanks

Family-run restaurant with friendly people and great food. It's always nice to be with friends.

Very accommodating, friendly, fast service, warm atmosphere, would be happy to come back

Very tasty and cozy, we love being here, the lamb shank or mixed grill platter is simply wonderful.

We decided at short notice to go out for dinner on Saturday evening. Called at 7 p.m. and an effort was made to find a place. It worked, the service was very friendly and the food was also delicious.

Another delicious dinner! 😊 We always enjoy coming to the Kapouranis family. Great service, friendly hosts and a cozy restaurant.

Despite its size, a very cozy restaurant with simply well-organized service. That means that in terms of the time interval between our appearance, taking a seat and serving the salad or main course, everything went perfectly. The food itself was also very good with completely sufficient quantities, highly recommended.

Now a native Greek. You are always warmly welcomed and everyone is very accommodating. Food is always there. After the renovation some time ago it became a really nice shop.

Heute wieder da gewesen. Das ist der Beste Grieche Dresdens! Die Familie ist ein Unikat. Der Chef kocht selbst und fragt jeden Gast ob es geschmeckt hat. Das ist Service, das ist Liebe zum Detail. Wenn Grieche, dann hier.

I love this store. I love the hosts and I love the food! Just thank you for the many lovely evenings.

Very leggoorr eaten 🍽️ 👌🏻🤤 and great staff 👍🏻 gladly again.

Very tasty food, super friendly staff. The staff really stands out compared to other restaurants. I think the dining room is pretty full with chairs and tables. But I understand. You just want to get the most out of the room.

What a relaxing evening. We were guests for the first time and were thrilled by the warmth and the beautiful ambience. Everything well maintained and clean. The service was friendly, quick and considerate. The food was simply fantastic and special requests were no problem. We'd love to come back.

Great food with nice service...we always come back when we are in Dresden

As always, excellent, friendly and very accommodating, always recommended.

Super warm welcome, super delicious food! no long wait, everything was great!

Stopped here spontaneously. Very comfortable, you can also sit outside in the garden. Menu very extensive. I can only recommend a visit to the Greek restaurant "Athens".

Great restaurant, very friendly staff, very tasty food, very clean, great ambience, definitely recommended!! Holidaymakers from Goslar

It's been a long time since I've been there and I love it more every time! It was like coming home for me. The welcome from the Kapouranis family, the warmth and joy of the team at work - a dream! Of course, the food was fabulous as always. If Greek in Dresden, then Athens! Many thanks to the entire team for the lovely evening and see you soon. 👋🏻

Simply great, fast, tasty and very friendly. Thanks

One of our favorite Greeks when we are in Dresden. Very nice service staff and very tasty food. We would love to come back 😁

The food was very tasty and the staff were friendly. It is recommended to reserve a table, but it still worked out with the seats when we spontaneously wanted to go out for something to eat.

We were in Athens in August '24 and were very impressed. Friendly staff and the food was freshly prepared and tasted excellent!!!

The food was outstanding, the service exemplary, and the atmosphere was holiday-ready. Highly recommended!
