We thoroughly enjoyed our experience! Erin took great care of us! We started with the peppers and dates (amazing) and some cocktails. The summer salad was light and refreshing. And we split the pork chop. The food was delicious and we will definitely return! They even brought a small biscotti cookie with our espresso. Again Erin was absolutely amazing and made the experience top notch! �

The National in Athens is one of those places that screams fresh ingredients, nice selection, and great service and staff. Knowing no one, other patrons were friendly and ready for conversation. The entire experience was lovely and delicious. Inkular Approved.

Thoughtful food for lunch. Went with a 13 and 11 year old (with old palettes) and we all loved it.
