“ I had amazing Greek pasta, my husband had the meatloaf. He loved it. Offered me a bite....NOW I want to try EVERYTHING on thier menu..really DELICIOUS...RECOMMEND BOTH ”
“ This is a fantastic family owned restaurant! They have a sister location in North Tonawanda called, Athenas also. My family and I were recently banned from Athenas because our favorite waitress was having a bad day and we told her the ice cream in our ice cream sundae tasted freezer burnt just so they know, but she became unglued and screamed at us, called the cops and banned us right in front of all the other patrons. That restaurant was the place I've been going to all 30 years of my life and for years would go every single Friday for their fantastic fish fry, and was the last place still open I ate with my grandparents for years before they passed. So being banned broke my entire family's heart, especially over simply making a comment that we thought would help their business. I used to recommend everyone to go there that came into my very busy and well known Niagara Falls hospitality job also. But now I recommend Kalamata! They have a lot of the same food and we've never had a problem there! Absolutely LOVE Kalamata and we visit every time we go to Lockport! In fact it was the first place my autistic brother ate pasta with sauce for the first time, so making new great memories here! I posted a picture of their cannoli French toast here, it was TO DIE FOR! ”
“ From the hostess, our waitress, and the nice woman who refilled our coffees, our service was superb! The heaping of food we received was more than enough and definitely shareable. I'm definitely looking forward to coming back to try lunch and dinner. ”
“ There is a very pleasant atmosphere here and the waitress was very kind. I got the calamari and Greek fries. Both of them were good. I liked the Greek fries since they were different from what I usually have in other restaurants. This is a place I would come back to and try more food on the menu. ”
“ Went for lunch, place was busy and it's not a very big place. The fish, subs and wraps we had were very good. I love Greek food and looking forward to going back. ”
