Reviews for Athena pizza in Victoria, BC
This place is the definition of hole in the wall. It doesn't look like much but it's been a favourite for almost twenty years... and it's also a textbook example of a hidden gem. The donairs are huge. You know that meme where burritos are measured comparedto a newborn? Yah, these are on that scale. They're not just a generous portion, they are incredibly good. Also, the sauce, mygod the tzatziki sauce. It's sweet yet tangy, and goes so freakin' well with the donair or the souvlaki. Order extra sauce, andbe prepared to be uncomfortably full because you couldn't stop eating, or to have two meals. I tried their pizzas and pastasrecently and couldn't believe I'd waited so long. Again generous portions and a great price point, and delicious as well. Youever see that scene in the Goofy Movie with the pizza? It's that level of pizza. There was so much cheese and the crust andsauce were both bang on crucial elements to a great za. Do yourself a favour and check these guys out. Read more
Atmosphere is a tough one as they only do take out/delivery, but if you haven't tried their donairs you're SERIOUSLY MISSING... OUT!!! Pizza is great, could be cooked a bit longer at a lower temp but their flavours are always great! But yeah. Donair.Extra sauce. Bring an appetite ???? Read more
My partner picked up donairs from here a couple weeks ago. I've never seen such big donairs in my life. You can't fit your mouth... around them. They are very good. I found the sauce a little sweet, but overall it was still a great dinner. Read more
These people mean business when it come to their Donaire?s? Seriously the size of your forearm, great value! Only place I?ll buy... donairs?s from. If you give them a try I guarantee you won?t go anywhere else. Sauce is a mix of Halifax and Tzatziki combined! Pizza is good too! ?? Great hole in the wall! Read more
Been ordering from here for at least 15 years, absolutely love their donairs and the sauce is at the top of my list... we... recently ordered the ravioli for the first time and the sauce was thick, meaty and full of flavor, it also had a nice portion ofravioli, the side of garlic bread was cut perfectly in our opinion and had a nice ratio of garlic butter to bread... I have tosay it was an excellent deal for $12. If your looking for a good donair or decent ravioli at a good price for the portion thisis your place!! The service is always friendly.. I am happy to support and recommend a longtime family business.. Read more
I like the donairs; highly recommended. Sadly I don't get them much anymore because of their hours. I live an hour away and use... to take evening drives to get them from time to time, but they've since changed their hours and close super early offering avery short window of time between opening and closing. They close when most people are just starting to want to orderfood. Another thing to mention is the service - or the lack there of. They are often very unfriendly and unwelcoming. You areusually a super huge inconvenience if you want to bother them to order some food or something. Huge downfall of this place.Service is the worst ever. However, if you can get past being ignored, treated rudely and ordering from a place that rarelyanswers the phone, the food here is really, really good. Very delicious and better flavors then most other places you willvisit. Very high rating on quality of product. (Food=4 to 5 stars / service and convenience = 1 star) Read more
Hugeeee portions! Amazing donair sub, great spice on the meat. They put the sauce separate when you order takeout so it doesn't... get soggy which is very much appreciated. I was full after eating only half! Read more
First time going there last night, I got the chicken slovaki, safe to say I was impressed, really good size portion & the amount... of sauce they give you is very generous not many places give that much. Will definitely be back! Read more
