It’s a rarity to find a Greek restaurant in a small town–unless you happen to be in lovely little Lowell, Indiana at Athens Grill!

When the word on the street repeatedly pointed out the existence of a wonderful Greek restaurant in town, Athens Grill, well, I didn’t have to think twice.

The place was super, super tiny. Really, it is just adorable. It’s also so easy to find! Right off the main drag in this small Indiana town, we didn’t even get lost or confused!

Walking inside, wow did it smell SO incredibly good!

I freely admit that I love Greek food. Greek salads, Gyros, burgers…it took me a bit of time to decide. There’s a lot of choices here.

Since the natives were getting restless and, according to Kid #1, were also starving, we decided to take advantage of their carryout option. We decided to picnic over at Lowell’s Evergreen Park.

Kid #1 had a shish-ka-bob that he thought was really fun to eat. It came with a pita buried underneath a mound of French fries. He was in Heaven!

Hubs had a mile-high Gyro. It looked and smelled so good.

I eventually decided on Athens Double Cheeseburger: Feta cheese, mushrooms, and green olives. Once again, little Indiana hit the jackpot: Everything was wonderful!

Great Greek!

Athens Grill has got quite the sandwich menu. I’d love to try their Reuben sandwich!

Inside and out, we enjoyed our experience. It’s firmly on the list for places in which I’d like to return.

Do yourself a favor and jet on over to Lowell, Indiana in Lake County. It’s good Greek.

    I’ve been going to Athen’s Grill for years! I had both of my brothers work there as well. We love the family that owns it and the food is out of this world! Best Greek Food Around! Every time we order it is always made fresh and delicious! Would recommend to anyone and everyone!

    Absolutely amazing. :) It’s not very often you find Greek food, let alone GOOD Greek food in a small town! Lowell is lucky to have this one.

    Thanks for stopping by.

    Is there anything comparable a little closer to the Lafayette area? I’m going to have to think of some reason to head north. Or may have to get cooking. So many of your posts make me want to take a long drive…just to go eat somewhere!!!

    LOL! Lowell would make for a great day trip–it’s about an hour away from Lafayette.

    Hey, just imagine being me–all these great places to eat but I can usually only go there ONE TIME! Ah! Nothing worse than getting a craving for something I’ve had that’s four hours away!
