It’s a challenge to find authentic Greek food in the midwest, but Athen’s Café seems to have cracked the code to success. Don’t let the outside fool you; there’s no fancy decor or frills in design here but the food speaks for itself. The locals claim Athens serve the best gyros and hummus in the area. Simple yet effective, the hummus is a fresh blend of chickpeas, tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil. With the available combo platters, diners will never have to choose between lamb or chicken gyros.
