It
is
said,
you
have
to
open
many
oysters
before
finding
a
Pearl.
Tucked
away
from
my
own
Awareness,
die
to
the
side
of
town
I’ve
always
lived
on,
Athens
Cafe
the
long
standing
Pearl
of
Jacksonville.
It
doesn’t
scream
for
your
attention,
advertise
with
big
budgets,
nor
try
to
sell
some
image
of
being
more
than
what
it
is.
Athens
Café
is
authentic
in
its
totality,
from
people,
food,
service,
and
environment.
It
is
a
humble,enchanting
jewel,
who
commits
to
its
art,
its
craft-
making
authentic
Greek
food
with
passion
and
love.
Do
what
you
do
with
love,
all
goodness
will
flow
forward,
right?
That’s
Athens
cafe
.
The
owner’s
presence,
greeting
you
at
the
door,
was
the
same
mirrored
warmth
felt
throughout
the
entire
evening
by
all
staff.
This
is
the
second
time
in
8
years,
I’ve
given
a
restaurant
in
Jacksonville
5🌟s.
My
perception
of
dining
comes
from
a
background
working
high
end
restaurants
growing
up
in
Atlanta.
If
Athens
Cafe
was
in
Atlanta,
you
would
need
reservation
a
day
in
advance
for
lunch
and
dinner.
The
professionalism
and
overall
hospitality
made
you
feel
like
you
were
visiting
a
place
where
you
were
once
remembered
and
missed.
The
Environment
was
nostalgic
and
enchanting,
capturing
all
my
senses.
When
I
thought
it
could
not
get
better,
the
food
was
absolutely
amazing!
From
the
presentation,
portion,
and
the
flavor.
I
almost
forgot
to
capture
a
photo
before
my
plate
was
wiped
clean.
Every
moment
of
our
experience
at
Athens
Café
was
more
splendid
than
the
next.
I
wish
I
new
social
media,
I
would
spread
their
greatness.
