  This place is one of our go to lunch spots. It’s definitely a family run joint with family pictures hanging up on the wall. I have tried many gyro’s in the Charlotte and surrounding area and this has hands down the best one!

  I’m pleasantly surprised to find such good Greek food in Concord! I’ve visited Gateway to Athens twice – once for takeout and once for a sit-down meal, and both times it was excellent.My takeout order took very little time (I dropped by on a whim and didn’t call it in), and the gyro combo was excellent. The meat was tasty, the pita was soft, and the fries were crispy and hot even after driving 10 minutes home. I came in more recently for a date and was equally impressed. We split hummus and fiery feta apps, and let me tell you, the fiery feta dip should definitely be ordered. Their grilled pita was well seasoned and honestly tasted great on its own, and the hummus was solid. We split a Greek calzone with gyro meat as an entree..and thank god we split it because it was huge! It was really tasty too. They added a good amount of cheese and peppers to boost the flavor but not too much too overpower the gyro meat and pita. Only one server was working, and she covered the entire 6-7 tables inside, but service didn’t suffer and she was very nice.I’d definitely recommend this place for quick, quality takeout or a casual sit-down meal if you’re in the mood for some Greek food!

  My family and I ate here last night and it was awesome. Great food and friendly service. My kids are very picky eaters but we thought we would try it. They loved d it. We got the chicken and potatoe dish and gyro rice bowl also the greek mac and cheese. So so good! We highly recommend this place and will be back soon. Thank you for a great dinner.

  A hidden gem, we stumbled upon this little treasure a couple years ago and have been loyal to this place ever since. My husband always gets the rice bowl with the lamb and vegetables and I seem to stick to the baked chicken. Have been here a few times for family functions and although this place runs off of a seemingly small group of employees, they seem to make sure to make us feel like a part of the family whether its just us, or a group of people. We walk in and the waitress knows our order before we even sit down! The owner has even come out a few times and sat with us while often times providing a complementary beverage or (my favorite) one of the homemade desserts one of the waitresses makes as a specialty! The stuffed grape leaves are to die for–and make sure to try the baked chicken, you can’t go wrong! This place seems to be run by a small tight-knit group, and I think it’s fair to say that we have only had one bad experience and it was corrected right away, and very generously I may add. Sometimes it does seem to get a bit hectic and since they run on one waitress and a few young men in the back, I think it should be understood by most–don’t be alarmed thought, the hospitality of the staff and the quality of the food is worth the wait. Best little Greek authentic restaurant in town!
