Delicious Greek Cuisine in Albany
Restaurant: Athos Restaurant Address: 1814 Western Ave, Albany, NY 12203 Two people ordered 6 dishes + 2 desserts, averaging $100 per person. Main Courses: Grilled Whole Bronzino: The skin was perfectly crispy, while the inside remained juicy and not greasy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Lamb Youvetsi: The lamb leg was tender and fall-off-the-bone soft. The sauce underneath was so delicious that we used it to dip our pita—clean plate! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Hot Appetizers: Grilled Octopus: Expertly grilled and incredibly tasty! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Zucchini Chips: Surprisingly sour, not as enjoyable as the ones at Saloniki in Boston. ⭐️⭐️ Cold Appetizers: Mezze Platter: Included my favorite tzatziki, my boyfriend’s favorite melitzanosalata (eggplant dip), hummus, and a chunky eggplant salad. The one in the middle was slightly spicy with a refreshing cucumber sweetness. We enjoyed dipping pita into each sauce and later got creative, wrapping the pita around lamb, fish, octopus, and zucchini chips—it went with everything! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Albany #AlbanyEats #Restaurant #AlbanyNY #LifeInTheUS #NewYorkState #AlbanyFoodScene#AthosRestaurant
