“Bakersfield is the halfway point to meet our son to return his dog so we're always looking for a dog friendly restaurant .In the past we've tried the temblor brewing company and the BLVD so we wanted to try something different Athena's Greek Café and Grill. When I first called them they said they would setup a table in the back but when we were on our way there we called again and they said NO DOGS even though they have a sign saying they do allow service dogs. It's located in downtown Bakersfield and At first the location seemed a bit sketchy because we passed a drug rehabilitation home a block away and there was a homeless guy in the parking lot with his bed mattress. It seems the further east you go the worse it gets which is the reason we haven't tried the Pyrenees restaurant yet. Getting back to the food review the service was great. we called in the order ahead of time and everything was ready the prices were a little on the high side we spent over $100 to feed four of us and we had it to go. Here's a list of what we ordered - [x] two baklava''s that were delicious $6.50 each - [x] two spanakopita $11.49 each, we got them to go uncooked and baked them the next day and it was spot on delicious. I would come back just to buy this - [x] chicken pita $13.49 was OK - [x] one order seasoned fries $8.99 OK - [x] Chicago style gyro $13.49 OK - [x] gyro plate with fries $19.99 OK If you want a five star Michelin Restaurant You're not gonna find it in Bakersfield however triple D gave it a thumbs up so we thought we'd try it out and it wasn't bad, So until the next visit we're probably gonna try the Pyrenees next but I hear bikers are welcome so I may wear my motorcycle Harley Davidson shirt just to fit in with the regulars at the bar, and that's the rest of this review!“
