Athens Market
$-$$, Greek, Downtown
User Rating: **** 3.8
Fodor's Review:
This cheerful eatery with an outdoor patio bustles with office workers and members of San Diego's small but active Greek community. Appetizers such as taramosalata (fish roe dip), hummus, and stuffed grape leaves are particularly tasty. Entrées include arni psito (roast leg of lamb), a very convincing rendition of moussaka, and the house Greek pasta, with garlic, onion, and cheese. The galaktobouriko (a layering of crisp phyllo pastry, eggy custard, and clove-scented syrup) makes an excellent dessert. Athens Market seems as timeless as Greece itself, and remains a local classic.

Great Greek

I had heard wonderful things about this restaurant, and needed takeout on a day where we were going out for an afternoon sail. They made a delicious Greek salad and we had Greek appetizers and delicious pita bread. It was perfect and the staff were helpful in putting it together for us.RATING: 5.0
