Little Athens Greek Restaurant Bucyrus

This place is a little bit quirky, with an odd layout; and you order your food at the counter, and they serve you in styrofoam clamshells with plastic forks…. …But, the food is of exceptionally good quality, with authentic seasonings, ample portions, and excellent prices. Great spot for Bucyrus.

Saw that this place got great reviews on a travel group I’m in so we stopped in yesterday when we were in Bucyrus. I was so disappointed. First we walked in and we weren’t sure if we were supposed to order at the counter, wait to be seated or seat ourselves. Waited a couple minutes then asked a lady who was standing along the wall. She said she didn’t know as she had never been there and was getting food to go. Saw a menu so stood looking at it for a couple minutes. Still not greeted or sure what to do so we seated ourselves. Seats on the booth were a bit dirty and very uncomfortable. Sat looking at a menu and a lady came and delivered food in a bag to another table. Never greeted us and walked away. My sister went back to the counter and ordered. Never asked her name. She came back and sat down. About 10-15 minutes a lady came and plopped a paper bag on our table. Again never said a word except maybe “here you go.” She was gone so fast. My sister got a gyro. She said it was OK but preferred the gyros from a place local to us. I got the small Greek nachos. It was packed in a tiny to go styrofoam container. I could not even see the chips or even get to them unless I wanted to dump everything out but I wasn’t given a plate to do so. So I had to eat pretty much all the toppings before I could get to the chips. The feta and tzatziki sauce was good. There were only 3 kalamata olives and the tomatoes were huge slices which would be better if they were diced. I ended up not eating them as I was just given a plastic fork and no knife to cut the tomatoes. The meat tasted good but overall I was so disappointed. If they are going to serve everything as a to go order, then the nachos should be packaged in a larger container so that it is easier to eat the way nachos should be and not eaten with a fork. Maybe if they ever go back to pre-Covid ways and serve food on plates, I may consider giving them another try.

Very friendly and great food! Not super fast but it’s because everything is made to order. Didn’t expect such great Greek food!

Agreed that this is a quirky restaurant. They make such good food nothing else matters though. I have a hard time driving through town and not stopping. The cheese pies are as addictive as the chicken gyro. Best fries in Bucyrus and the Greek nachos are amazing. Can’t go wrong with anything on the menu.

This is a gem of Bucyrus no doubt. The baklava was right on, border line perfect. Gyro is one of the best I've had, and I've had bad ones let me tell you, this is a great one. I seen someone claim best fries in town and honestly I can see that too I was surprised how good the fries were cover them in tzatziki sauce would be my suggestion if you go. I'll definitely be back when work brings me this way

Great food in a great atmosphere. Enjoy eating either there or at home. Best Gyros I have ever had.Food: 5/5

This is an awesome small town place to go! I have lived in the area for a couple years now and have always seen it but never been! I highly recommend it. The food and service is outstanding. The gyros are wonderful and the kalamata dip is delicious! I honestly don't think you could order anything bad here!

I bring all my friends here. Best Greek around. Quaint atmosphere, clean and friendly. Best fries in Bucyrus. If you eat...do it Greek! Here's a tip...order your fries extra crispy...

Large portions of deliciousness! We each had a traditional gyro and fries. Their fries are amazing! As soon as I posted about this place on social media, I received several additional recommendations for menu items for our next visits there!

Homegrown and delicious. One of the best local eateries, with friendly staff and amazing, traditional Greek fare. Don't forget to pick up some housemade baklava for dessert, absolutely incredible.
