    The food and service at Athos are always outstanding! Our server, Efe, was very professional, competent, friendly, and helpful. I have dined here many times; it was a first visit for my guest. She loved it! Definitely at the top of our return visit list!

    We had a good time with a party of 4. We made a reservation and were seated promptly. The chips, salsa and guacamole was very good, our entrees were all quite tasty and had good portion sizes (we all boxed up leftovers). The cocktails were very good and the service was polite and professional. The ambiance was a little modern and not typical for a Mexican restaurant and the noise level (on a busy Saturday night) wasn’t conducive to a lot of conversation.
