Great service. Lamb is fire . I recommend Nick the Greek never misses--fresh, fast, and delicious every time. read more

Nick the Greek is a solid fast-casual chain for Greek-inspired eats. One of my favorite items is the Mediterranean Bowl, built on a base of yellow rice and kale dressed with vinaigrette, topped with cucumbers, tomatoes, pickled onions, fried chickpeas, a scoop of hummus, a scoop of toum (garlic sauce) topped with spicy harissa, and a choice of protein. A classic item was the Chicken Souvlaki Pita, a flatbread sandwich with grilled, marinated chicken, lettuce, tomato, onions, fries, and a sweet mustard sauce. And the Tahini Crunch Salad came with lettuce, kale, cucumbers, tomatoes, pickled onions, fried chickpeas, pita crunch, banana peppers, and basil, topped with a scoop of hummus with harissa, and drizzled with tahini dressing. Everything we had here was fresh and flavorful and came at a good value too. Compared to other locations I've been too, this one could had a cleaner atmosphere, but the food was delicious as always! read more

Terrible service! One plate was brought first but by the time we received the rest of our order it became cold, it took really long to get our whole order. The girl at the register was very rude, she really made you feel like she didn't want to be there. She is the main reason we will never go back to that location, she worked the night shift on September 20th. She really killed the ambiance. read more

I like this location the most of the 3 that I've been to. They workers there are always courteous and they always bring my order to me my order is ready. Now I just need to remember what is my favorite protein for their bowls. read more

I didn't think Nick The Greek can mess up until tonight. Two Mediterranean Bowls with Steak. Waited almost 15 minutes and they managed to burn the meat for both of the orders and served to us. Bland and burnt left my mouth with that bitter after taste. Too much kale and probably 4 tablespoons of rice in that bowl... I did my best to eat what I can to not waste food.... The cashier girl was a sweet heart, but the food sucked! Definitely not coming back to this one. Not sure how they got the Yelp sticker on their glass read more

Nick The Greek - 2 Mediterranean bowl with steak-burnt meat - Greek Near Me - Hayward, California

Service and food are definitely hit or miss. Today, however, the gentleman at the front--who seems to always be there--was particularly rude, as usual. He always seems to be in a bad mood, although maybe that's simply his personality. Either way, he really shouldn't be working in a customer service position. I specifically asked for my chicken to be well done because I've received undercooked chicken here several times before. Unfortunately, it came out extremely undercooked, with the center still pink. The Castro Valley location is definitely far superior when it comes to both customer service and food quality. I'll be sticking with that location from now on. read more

I ordered the gyro lamb and chicken bowls. I asked for no rice or fries. When I received my order it had fries in it. I did not receive the extra tomatoes, cucumbers, onions and olives that I paid for. Had to throw away the orders. When I called the restaurant they played dumb. read more

Nick the Greek in Hayward makes good food and the pork belly gyro hits the spot. The pork belly is tender and flavorful, and the whole gyro comes together really well. I do wish they added a few more fries since it feels a little light on that part. Overall it is solid and worth trying, but for me it lands around three and a half stars. read more

The food is solid here. I ordered via Uber Eats and got them delivered relatively quickly. Got the chicken gyro and the chicken bowl. The bowl was solid - good amount of chicken. However, there were parts of the chicken that were hard. Some were so hard, it was almost inedible! The flavors are good, very flavorful yet tasted light. The rice was good and came with a handful of greens. My husband demolished his chicken gyro and said only good things about it. As for the pricing, pretty standard across the bay. Expect to pay about $15 per meal to get full. They are located off Hesperian in Hayward. We'll definitely come back here if we're craving Mediterranean food. Next time will try the falafel and hummus! read more

Been craving falafel wrap for a while and decided to treat myself w Nick The Greek since I was in the area. When I got there, there were a couple people waiting for door dash pick up. The cashier greeted me right away and was very friendly. I ordered the falafel wrap meal w nick's fries and drink. After about less than 10 mins wait, my food was ready. The wrap was good - it needs some sauce, idk like harissa sauce or maybe more tzatziki. The fries were amazing - they were hot and the perfect amount of garlic. I also had the orange cardamom drink that was very delicious!! I'm glad that there's Nick the Greek nearby, would come again when craving falafel. read more

We tried two different salads on our first visit since their proteins don't meet our pescatarian lifestyle. Both salads were very tasty and had generous portions of veggies. My Greek salad, which was tossed in a tasty vinaigrette, didn't even have any lettuce. The lemon dressing also had a really good flavor. They have a shared parking lot that wraps around the back. Staff were helpful as we navigated our introduction to this restaurant. Though our options are limited here, we will be back because we really enjoyed the options they do offer! read more

Solid place and good combo plates Gyro - standard, well seasoned and good Chicken - a little dry but tasty nonetheless Falafel - over fried, quite dry, could've been slightly bigger so it'd be less dry Salad - tasty with a good mix of acid from the dressing and light sprinkles of cheese Fries- seasoned with an herb, slightly under done in my taste Rice - deliciously seasoned Tatziki sauce - very tasty and went well with the plates, mix it into the carbs or raw tomatoes and onions, it is a great combo Service was friendly Overall would not go out of my way for this but it's great if you're tryna get a quick convenient healthy lunch read more

Great food and service from this location. I am always greeted with a smile and the food has been consistent in taste and presentation. My go to spot for lunch! read more

I use to be a customer during the launch of this location. Food was great and pricing was fair and was my go to spot for a fast Gyro hands down. Fast forward to January 2026, I thought I would give them a second chance, but now a simple beef/lamb gyro pita wrap is now $14.67 which includes a small .75 dipping side (Yogurt). Now with pricing like this it's unfortunately getting too competitive with some of the local Falafel options that have more generous portions that I will prefer at that price point and their yogurt sides are free. read more

Got to try out this new location and everything was great! Tried the souvlaki plate with pork shish kabobs and they were very tasty. Pork could have been a bit more tender but overall was very pleased. Mom got the souvlaki plate w lamb/beef gyro. Food was extremely fresh and yummy. Portions were huge and had some leftovers for the next day. Staff was totally amazing and friendly! Super busy but the line moved fast and food was prepared quickly as well. I believe Theo was the one to help me out when I came and he was absolutely fabulous! He was super compassionate with a situation with my family and took care of our needs. read more

They are just off Hesperian next to Teaspoon. I ordered online and it was ready when I got there. The place was empty and the girl at the counter greeted me. I ordered the falafel pita. The flavor was good, but they put way too much tzatziki and was very messy! Way, way too much. It leaked through the wrap and they didn't even provide napkins or utensils! It was the messiest falafel I've ever had. Please provide napkins with every order. It's just common courtesy. read more

Nick The Greek - Falafel Pita - Greek Near Me - Hayward, California

I've been wanting to try Nick's as a few co-workers have raved about the food. For the most part things went well. I ate there today 4/29/23. The inside is nice. Modern fast casual type set up. Roughly 6-8 regular sized tables plus 3 pub tabs on the side wall. Plenty of room IMO as most people seemed to carry out or Doordash. There is also some picnic type outside seating. Not sure if it's Nicks seating but it's there. There is ample parking. Wait time: we waited roughly 30 minutes to get our food. It was crowded. There was a youth soccer group and they had a lot of orders. However, the wait seemed a bit excessive. Maybe they were short staffed? The food: The food was good. It's fast casual a Greek food made pretty well. It was fresh. We ordered the Gyro plate. It came with side salad (more feta please!) choice of meat (we had beef/lamb). It had an order of rice or fries as well. I really wish the fries were more crispy. There was a side of pita and some Tzatziki sauce as a final touch. All in all fairly tasty. Why the three stars? 1. Wait time.- 30 mins is a a lot of wait time. 2. Soup: so I ordered hummus n pita as a side with my meal. As stated we waited about 30 minutes. About the 27 minute I heard our number called (39) but then I hear no hummus. No hummus? Rich sad :(....I go to the counter and the young lady tells me. I say "I heard" she offers a refund or feta dip. I say no but I'll try the soup which was cheaper. The soup was Avgolemono. It's a Greek lemon egg with chicken. However, this soup was a watery and slightly lemony mess with chicken hairs no chicken. I mean the chicken was string. This soup reminded me of Campbells that someone poured lemon in. Just did appointment. Did any one taste it? Did I get the bottom of the pot? 3. Running out hummus was like McDonald's running of nuggets and fries. There is zero excuse. The staff was very nice. The two young ladies at the front were great. The place is very clean. I'll always go back for seconds. Let's hope I can up the stars. read more

Can't go wrong with their gyros! Haven't had a bad experience with Nick's yet! Their hummus and pita pretty decent. Also their Mediterranean bowl with your choice of meat is pretty banging if you're looking for more healthier side. Whether I pick it up or order delivery it's pretty speedy service. read more

The service was good except that they wouldn't let me substitute chicken for steak on the new steak mixed bowl. So I tried a Gyro bowl with chicken but found it to be greasy, which was disappointing. I don't think it's a problem with this location so much as the food product in general that I personally didn't care for. read more

I love Nick the Greek, this location is newer and very clean - it's also right across from Chabot and next to a boba spot which means lots of foot traffic sometimes. I highly recommend coming here because they never fail to pack the bowls with so much food, the service is also great as they're kind and friendly! If you're a newcomer, I recommend getting the combo beef/lamb bowl and maybe get some fries or hummus with pita on the side! It's a very filling meal as it comes with rice and many vegetables in the bowl - which I love! I'm really getting a good amount of food for the price. Parking is ample, there is a lot of seating and it is perfect to bring large groups. Highly recommend coming here! read more

Nick The Greek - Chicken Gyro Plate - Greek Near Me - Hayward, California

This place is definitely five stars given it's on the pricier side and my husband and I still choose to come pretty regularly because it is so good. All of the ingredients are fresh, service is fast and food is yummy. I love the salad and the gyro bowl. The cheese is so flavorful and the cucumbers are always delicious. I love the tzatziki and the mustard sauce. Don't make me choose just one! Both pair nicely with the pita bread. You can order ahead online and pick up is a breeze. They are also pretty fast so it's easy to swing by and order in store. You also earn points for future free items! read more

Great food and great service. Very nice people. Will definitely stop by while traveling

Quick and easy lunch. Ordered the beef/lamb gyro-- fries on the side, not inside. Perfect portion. Always extra tzatziki sauce for dipping. Plenty of parking here. The restaurant was promptly cleaned after diners left. Their front team was very friendly. Nice place! read more

First time at this restaurant. Came to try the spanakopita. The place was clean and inviting. We were greeted when entering; something you don't see too often anymore. The staff is very friendly and customer oriented. The meal was outstanding. The portion was a good size. The spanakopita was cooked just right, the filo dough being flaky and light. All the ingredients were fresh. We had fries with the meal. They were lightly salted and crisp. For dessert we had the froyo with chocolate shell. Outstanding! Having a Greek grandfather who was also a hotel chef, I'm a bit picky about Greek cooking. But I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of the whole meal. We'll be back. read more

Food is good, and the staff are nice. Would eat here again! Till then take care team!

Their service was so great and the employees there were super kind and made sure everything was okay for me. The food was also really good of course and it was really filling. read more

The gyros where Dry af, it only had a couple of slices of meat :( not worth the 18$.and it made my tummy hurt

I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with the service I received during my recent purchase /experience. I placed three orders, and my husband went to collect them. Upon returning home, we received a call that one order was missing. Consequently, my husband and I drove back to pick up the order. Upon opening the gyro bowl in front of the cashier to verify it was correct, I noticed that I had paid for a side of hummus and additional rice, neither of which was properly included. The extra rice was not added at all, and the hummus was carelessly placed on top of the food rather than presented in a separate container as is customary. I informed the cashier of the missing rice, and after questioning the cooks, he provided me with a side of rice; however, there was no apology for the initial oversight or for the inconvenience of my return trip. Which I live 15 min away, Furthermore, there was no acknowledgment regarding the improper presentation of the plate and how messy it looked. Ultimately I must say that I will not be returning to this establishment. The lack of customer service is not okay, and the chicken served was exceedingly dry. It is evident that the food preparation and packaging standards require significant improvement. From the cashier to the cooks no one apologies or took accountability, not to mention they made my husband pay $1.25 for a side of dressing that is included and came with the salad already. I will be frequenting an alternate location in Castro Valley moving forward. Horrible experience from the cashier to the cooks! New staff is much needed or you will continue to loose customers. read more

First time trying this place, and ordered pick-up. Food was great, my order was ready quick! When I'm in the mood for quick a Mediterranean, I would order here again. read more
