    Greek soda - very refreshing!
    Candace H.

    Food was good, service was quick, and there was a great veggie bowl option! they don't have Spanakopita and idk why that is but overall I would definitely come back!

    I came here to try their chicken gyro pita and it was delicious. The chicken was juicy and not too dry. I also got their famous dubai chocolate soft serve which was really good~ I would definitely come back to try their fries and other dishes. The restaurant was clean and nice as well. The staff was nice too. The guy at the counter was kind with alot of manners.

    Friendly staff, clean restaurant and phenomenal Greek food. Can't ask for more. I highly recommend!

    First timers here and we're not disappointed! Service was excellent, very friendly and explained everything to us and answered my multiple questions regarding the plates/bowls! Amazingly, your food is served exactly as shown on the menu We had a bowl and a plate, both were very good. The ingredients were so fresh, chicken and steak tender and flavorful. Nice sized portions. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. We will certainly visit again soon.

    I keep coming back for my same dish after a good workout. The steak bowl is my favorite best balanced meal through and through. I drove here from Diamond Bar after my workout.

    Fresh quality food. Always the goto place when we need a balance meal. Good taste and great clean place. Good service and price

    Mediterranean Bowl

    I've been living in Fullerton for 5 years and have been wanting to try this place for a while. Today was that day! My husband ordered the Mediterranean bowl with steak and I got the beef/lamb gyro plate. The cashier was very good at explaining the differences between the Mediterranean and the Gyro bowl. The dining area is very clean and it was decently busy for 4:45pm on a Wednesday. I also got their pomegranate dragonfruit drink from the fountain. It was very good too. Definitely plan to come back since everything tastes fresh and yummy!

    I had the lamb gyro and fries, and everything was absolutely delicious. The meat was tender, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned, and the fries were fresh and crispy. The whole meal tasted high quality and well-prepared. The restaurant itself was very clean and well-kept, which made the experience even better. On top of that, the customer service was excellent--friendly, fast, and welcoming. Overall, a great spot, and I'll definitely be coming back.

    I've gotten delivery from Nick the Greek and their food is always super consistent. The plating looks just like the pictures, the sauces are on point, and the falafel is still crispy on the outside. The guys that work here are also super awesome. I called to change an order. At first he said they weren't able to, but when I got my delivery, I saw that they made the accommodation and updated my order!

    Chicken souvlaki plate
    Brianna C.

    Service was great, the person taking my order was very kind and patient. Unfortunately, I was disappointed in the food. I got a chicken souvlaki plate, and it was very mid. The chicken was juicy, but the flavors were lacking. It tasted like something I could make at home :/ the fries also were not fluffy. The salad was a nice refreshing part of the meal, though. Anyway, I was expecting more in terms of the food. Lots of seating, clean restrooms.

    It does NOT rhyme with pyro, hahaha!
    Patrick ..

    Bottom Line Up Front: This is my go-to spot for fast-casual Mediterranean food. The Food: I've tried at least two dishes from each category of food (wrap, plate, bowl, salad, etc.), and I have yet to be disappointed. My most commonly ordered dish is the Beef/Lamb Gyro, a classic Greek food that has everything you need in a meal (e.g. protein, veggies, and healthy carbs) -- plus, it's quite good. It's stuffed with fries, but I always take them out and score myself a "free side." However, I have found that the chicken in the chicken dishes (whether gyro, Souvlaki plate, etc.) is a tad dry. Still has good seasoning, but not as moist as I hoped. The Service: The employees here are all very polite, kind, and friendly. Excellent training all around. The Setting: It's located in a small strip-mall beside a Chipotle, Panda Express, and Verizon store not far from Cal State Fullerton. That means during peak season when school is in session or when the university is hosting a big tournament, the parking lot gets packed. It's made even worse because the stalls in the back are very narrow. Of course, this is not Nick the Greek's fault, but something to be aware of when you arrive. Also note that the restaurant itself is kinda narrow with limited seating. If you're with a big party or arrive at noon during peak school season, you might have a problem finding a seat. Fortunately, there are some outdoor seating at the nearby Chipotle, so you could always hop over there. The Reward Points System: I do have a complaint. If you join their club, you can rack up reward points that can be redeemed later for free items. When I first started coming here, they used a different system that would consistently not work. Now, they've switched systems, but it's still not app based; it's phone number based. So there's no way for me to truly check my points to see if it's accurate. Sometimes I enter my phone number when I order but I don't get a text message confirming my points. Kind of frustrating, especially since I'm a loyal customer. The Conclusion: If you're looking for a place that can balance the speed and convenience of a fast-food joint with the wider offerings and authentic tastes of a sit-down restaurant, Nick the Greek can be ideal. As long as you're not expecting a 3-star Michelin restaurant, it should satisfy your Mediterranean craving.

But where Pita Hot sets itself apart from those places is the community. When you walk in, you're greeted with smiles, a question about how your day is, and if you've been there a few times, a quick "how's the wife and kids?" Although some people may see the price tags and wince, they do not skimp on portions. They will fill your plate to the absolute brim, give you one huge pita, and send you on your way. The flavors on the food are nothing to scoff at either. The hummus, tabbouleh, and beef skewer are absolute hits. Flavorful bites with the perfect amount of balance between the acidity of the tabbouleh, the light and rich hummus, and the meatiness of the beef. The shrimp skewer is tasty as well but not something I think I'd get again. The rice pairs well with everything, and as I've mentioned before, the humongous pita they give you is delicious as well. A three skewer plate is enough for two people! All in all, Pita Hot has been around this long for a reason. Their business model and recipes are tried and true. Overall, 9/10.

    Literally saw the sign while walking and I have no regrets!…read more First off, the ambience is beautiful. The dim lighting and candles are super romantic. I got a seat with a bit of sunlight coming in from the window and that felt like the perfect touch. Avery is so kind. She immediately mentioned the Soup of the Day and the blend for the herb water and I knew I had to get both! They rotate both out every single day depending on what they have on hand, which is a great indicator that they source their ingredients fresh. The soup was puréed eggplant with a coconut milk or cream base and it was the creamiest eggplant dish I'd ever had in my life. Very smooth, no seeds. I didn't even know eggplant could get to that consistency. It's a beautiful soup and I would come back just for that. Arabic tea was not as strong as I'd had in other restaurants but for a nice dining place like this, I think it's good that it wasn't so bitter. Maybe it's also because I dunked a whole packet of honey in mine beforehand Beef stew was great. There were only a few beef chunks but if you're a fan of the vegetable you're choosing (I love zucchini so that worked out well for me), then it's a perfect portion for one. I can't believe I've just been passing this gem behind for so long! Will definitely come back with some company next time around.

To be fair, I went on a weekend, so I paid the highest price. I could see this place being a much better value during weekday lunch. The inside was very clean, which I appreciated. One thing that felt a little awkward was the service setup. There didn't really seem to be servers inside, and you pay when you leave, so I wasn't completely sure how much tip made sense. I noticed they even had a 10% tip option, so I'm guessing they know the setup can feel a little unclear. The food overall was clean and decent. It felt like they had pretty much everything you would expect from an American-style Mediterranean/Middle Eastern buffet. Nothing really stood out as especially amazing, but there was a good variety, and most of the food gave me that "this is probably healthy" feeling. I'd consider coming back if I were with friends who really like Mediterranean food.
