A Mediterranean Kitchen & Bar located in the heart of Pacific Beach. Established in 1990, Cafe Athena has been in successful operation for over 30 years! Made almost entirely from scratch, our dishes are handpicked from the Mediterranean and prepared in the most authentic, healthy, and delicious fashion. Our full bar allows us to complement our fine dishes with Mediterranean specialties like Ouzo, a traditional Greek aperitif liquor, as well as other creative mixes. Steen ygia mas! Cheers!
