   I only have a photo of the starter because I forgot to take a picture of the main course — I tried it, and before I knew it, the plate was empty. Everything was absolutely delicious! The beef just melts in your mouth. I truly recommend this place — the food is outstanding!

   We had our wedding celebration at The Athenian Tree in August 2025. The owners and staff were highly accommodating and went above and beyond ensuring our special day was the best ever. We had a small celebration with a total of 34 people. The food was great - traditional, delicious and very big portions! All our guests commented on how good the food was and how well the restaurant catered for our celebration. The owners were incredible hosts and kindly allowed us to rearrange the tables to create a better atmosphere for the guests ensuring that it felt like a celebration and not just an afternoon at a restaurant. The service was excellent! We would highly recommend The Athenian Tree for great Greek Food whether it is for a celebration, a meal out or even for a cosy take-away night in.

   We had a delicious meal here. Friendly and helpful service, food arrived quickly but didn’t feel rushed. They were happy to let you take home what we couldn’t finish. Strongly recommend gyros or moussaka.

   First time visiting this restaurant for my sisters birthday! Very friendly waitress, love that they use the Greek language to greet you. Calm and cosy, Greek atmosphere. The food was absolutely incredible! I had the mix dip with pita bread, the tzatziki was so tasty. For the main, I had meatballs with rice, the meatballs were so succulent and the sauce was lovely and rice was so fluffy and thick. Definitely recommend and will be going again :)

   No frills Greek restaurant in Canton. Tasty food with generous portions. Gyros were the perfect hangover cure (veggie options available) great value for money. Lovely friendly waitress.

   Me and my parents dined here last week and we loved the food! The atmosphere is that of a family run restaurant which is lovely. We shared three starters and the Mixed grill which left us feeling super full. Everything tasted fresh and delicious.

   Top place! Deserves 5 stars. From the outside looks small, but it's a nice sized place with plenty of tables, cosy feeling, and amazing friendly staff. The food cooked fresh and tasted lovely, with short wait times. Definitely recommend the food, I personally had the meatballs with half rice and half chips!

   Booked this for a 50th birthday celebration for someone who loves all things Greek. Restaurant is quite small but adequate and there is a car park opposite which is great. Staff were lovely and friendly. The one downside is there is no children's menu (or smaller portion option). The few items on the menu my 4yr old may have eaten were unfortunately not available. Food was tasty and fresh. I'd highly recommend the Athenian Feta to start, it's so nice! The Halloumi was also lovely and a generous portion! I was expecting my main meal of gyros to be an actual wrap however it's a plate of meat and chips with pitta and dip on the side. One party member ordered the mousaka (their favourite Greek dish) as their main however they said it had a very strong aniseed taste which they was not keen. I'd recommend a visit and probably pre-book a table due to the restaurant size. We live 40mins away otherwise I'd try the takeaway option to!

   My husband and I had such a lovely meal last night xx The cheese pie starter was beautiful, the lamb chops and the kleftico were amazing. We were so full we didn't order desert, but the owner kindly gave us some little cheese pastries in honey to finish off the meal, and they were gorgeous. Such a lovely evening, will definitely be going again.
