Nabe bloggers Jazz & Jill report that a Greek place called Athena will be opening in the old 213 Mexican space on Smith Street:
Jazz & Jill: We couldn’t be any more excited! At the old 213 Mexican address – 213 Smith Street – the new spot looks almost ready for opening. Tonight there was a logo projection moving across the sidewalk. Tacky, yet eye-catching! It was introducing Athena Mediterranean. The front of the building has a Greek relief type sculpture. Again, could be tacky – but in Carrie Bradshaw’s words “Most people would say she’s Eurotrash, but I think she’s fun.”







Is it owned by the same people that run the Athena on 6ave-14st in Park Slope? If so, expect great things because that place is amazing!
looking forward to it!
