* Review: I CRAVE the salads from the Athenian Grill on a semi-constant basis. Every time I make my way home I have to stop in and have one with the AMAZING homemade Greek dressing Mama cooks up. She’s the little Greek woman sitting behind the cash register. The Athenian Grill is by far the best Greek food in the state of Arkansas. It seems to get overlooked due to its location in the suburbs, but it is well worth the drive. The grill closes really early, so if you want dinner make your way across the river ASAP. Mama makes homemade spaghetti with meatballs once a week as well. I’m not a big fan, but people swear by those meatballs. Her spanakopita seems to be made on site, unlike the same offering by the area competition (which is bought pre-made from a food distributor). The Athenian Grill is a hole in the wall, but has spectacular Greek cuisine in the Little Rock area.
