We stopped by Nick the Greek in La Mirada based on the great reviews. I ordered the chicken style kebab pita. It came with lettuce, tomato, onion, and a mustard-style sauce in a soft pita. Overall, it was just okay. The chicken wasn't really my favorite and didn't stand out compared to other Greek spots. The pita bread was the best part. My bf had the beef/lamb combo pita. He said it was good. The restaurant was pretty empty when we visited, and parking is limited with a small lot, which is something to keep in mind. Not terrible, but not memorable either. Might try something different next time. The fries were good.

Awesome place with great food. Staff is friendly and helpful. Food is fresh and delicious. Love the pitas and baklava along with Nick's fries. Clean and nice ambiance too.

Baklava
Victor E.

Very good food. Will come back soon. Steak bowl is recommended with the chicken sticks.

Lamb Gyro
Michelle R.

Satisfied my Mediterranean food craving. Visited on a Monday for lunch. Used the discounted QR code posted on the front window, $3 off a gyro. Staff provided great menu recommendations. Restaurant was clean. I really enjoyed my lamb gyro, it was savory and aromatic! I will be a returning customer.

We came to Nick the Greek around 12 PM and had a great experience. There's plenty of parking, which made it really convenient, and the restaurant itself was very clean and welcoming. The portions are generous--you definitely get a large quantity of food for the price. The staff were very friendly and helpful, which made the experience even better. The Dragon Fruit drink was really good and refreshing. I ordered the Mediterranean Bowl, and it was absolutely delicious and very filling. My girls tried the gyro with fries and they loved it. We also had the burger, which was surprisingly very delicious as well. Overall, it was a great experience for our family and we all really enjoyed it. We will definitely be coming back again!

The bowl I got that was supposed to have a different protein, but I got falafel instead.
Andrea Renee A.

Came here on 11/26 on a whim. Was going to the sando shop next door and after I got my sandos I went inside to see if they had falafel. They did!! The man at the counter was very helpful and answered all my questions. When I was about uk order a bowl he showed me that I could get the other bowl and just sub out falafel for the protein. He went and made it. I got in the car opened the container and boy, oh boy, was it calling my name...Andrea, Andrea just take one falafel and dip it in the hummus. I did!!! Sooooooo delish!! It was fresh. All of it. Fresh. The kale was tasty, I may add I don't like kale, but this was so fresh. The rice was great, tomatoes, pickled red onions and the three sauces were lovely. I'm Lebanese and I've been eating this type of food my whole life. My grandma n mom make it all homemade and this food passed the test. I will be back, often. It was great! The restaurant was clean and it was peaceful and quiet. The sm since was a relaxed vibe which we all need and enjoy.

Fries were delicious
Dawnmarie F.

Love it. Restaurant was very clean and the staff was polite and helpful. The food was delicious!!!! My husband had a lamb bowl. Omg, yummmm. Fresh , crunchy and fabulous. My chicken gyro was so great, well balanced flavor. We all would totally eat here again, take others and recommend it.

I used to come here more often, but returned here for the first time in at least 6 months. I ordered their beef/lamb gyro and shared Nick's fries with the friend. My friend got the chicken gyro. Everything was delicious and tasty. Seasoned well, but not overly salty. The fries were well loaded and very garlic-y (which I loved, but I needed a drink and a breath mint to wash it down after haha). My only note was that my gyro was noticeably smaller than my friend's and smaller than I've received previously. It hasn't happened before though and although on the smaller side, it was delicious. Although it is a casual eating spot, I will say it can get a bit expensive. My gyro was $12.50 (excluding tax) and the fries were also $12.50. With tax my total was $27.44 without tip. With tip, it was about $30 which is pretty common for food of this type and quality. The atmosphere was quiet with plenty of seating space. The aesthetic isn't anything fancy, but it's pretty clean and a good casual spot to eat and chat. Staff are easy going and helpful. Already looking forward to my next gyro!

Greek salad
Drew R.

Nick the Greek never disappoints! Always fresh and delicious and the staff is amazing!!! I recommend the La Mirada location if. You are in the area. Clean establishment. Come here for lunch and is always the best.

Sheryl F.

So fresh and delicious! Will definitely come back. The marinades are so well done! The fries are crispy!

There is plenty of parking around the restaurant. We dined inside, but they also have a semi-enclosed patio in front with fans and heat lamps. Their inside dining room is the smallest of the other local Panini locations I have visited. I had the Beef Koobideh Kabob plate with two skewers, the Mediterranean salad, and basmati rice, $20.99). It only cost $3 more to get two skewers instead of one, a no-brainer. This is a huge plate of food! There is a lot of meat which is cooked perfectly and very flavorful. It also comes with a skewer of roasted vegetables. The salad is big, with lots of feta cheese on top, and the homemade balsamic vinaigrette was delicious. The serving of rice is huge, and has a little saffron on top. The side of tzatziki is also a generous size. I ended up taking a half skewer of beef and a lot of rice home to enjoy later. She had the Fresh Norwegian Salmon kabob plate, also with the Mediterranean salad, and basmati rice, $22.99). She had a side of the spicy red bell pepper hummus. This plate comes with the same large serving of salad and rice, and one skewer each of salmon pieces and roasted vegetables. She also enjoyed her plate, and also had plenty left over to bring home. Our server Lestat (yes, he is named after a vampire and is asked about his name often) was very friendly and provided great service. Several other staff members also checked on us often. Their food is healthy, delicious, and a good value. We will continue to order delivery and/or dine in here.

This is the first Chinese bbq skewer place that I've eaten at. And I loved it! It's fun, tasty, and…read moreoverall, a lot cleaner dining experience than traditional kbbq or jbbq. Everything is cooked over heated charcoal so there's no flame or grimey grills. This results in significantly less smoke and a very low risk of overcooking/burning your meat. Each of the little skewers is heated slowly on a rotating bicycle chain that twirls the meat for even cooking. It's super fun to watch--dinner and a show! Haha. Another plus is that the meat comes in bite sized portions, so no struggling to remove a hunk of meat from the stick and no need for knives! In essence, adult finger food or tasting menu that allows you to try everything. GUI has incredible variety, including lots of exotic meats: chicken gizzard, chicken heart, chicken cartilage, frog, etc. I'm not that adventurous and prefer not to deal with bones, so I stuck with the classics: pork belly, chicken, and bacon wrapped mushroom. Even though GUI is known for their bbq, they also serve tasty side dishes like oysters and cucumber salad. The restaurant is located on the second level of an Asian strip mall just off the 60 freeway. Parking can be challenging during dinner hours so go early. Service is good and they kept the beers flowing. If you have a larger group, there are a few air conditioned private rooms that are nice and quiet. The staff were nice enough to store a birthday cake in their refrigerator in the back. They give a discount on your birthday but it has to be the exact day

Service was fine, but probably better if you're seated in the main area. Our group was seated in the corner closer to the entrance and it was sometimes hard to get refills on water/drinks. We ordered enough so that each person had about 10-12 skewers, and I'd say that was the perfect amount for our group. Overall good, would definitely return! Just be mindful of late night rush hours since this plaza gets super busy at night.

There are some places where the chicken kebab can be a bit dry, but here - both the chicken shawarma and kebab were very moist and tender!!

Each dish comes with a grilled tomato, rice, salad, and pita bread. As far as the desserts, I got the Kataifi with cream, which was solid. I've only ordered here via delivery apps, so I'm not sure about the ambiance of the restaurant but they definitely package my to-go orders very well--making sure that nothing spills out!

I understand if they sold out but they didn't even say anything and let me walk out like I wouldn't notice. The hummus tasted like water and no soul. Definitely didn't taste like it contained chickpeas, tahini, olive oil, salt, or lemon juice. The rice looked like rice, but it smelled and tasted like gasoline, which means they either used too much saffron or it was cheap or old. The chicken was too burnt I couldn't taste anything else. The sauces couldn't even save it they were just too sour/lemony. The beef had too much fat in it, not very good quality for the price - $20+ shawarma. The fries were the best part

Food is good, service was okay, speed was disappointingly slow…read more I get that these places make their food to order so I expected a wait, but they have the word "express" in their business name so I had a false expectation. Needless to say I sat there waiting for my two to-go orders for what felt like an eternity. A lot of people flowed in after me and they were all just waiting, it was weird since it was empty when I walked in and then seeing 6 tables of people with no food. I thought I ordered the cheaper lunch special of chicken koobideh and beef koobideh, but he punched in the full portion instead. I didn't really mind as it just became extra food for dinner. But I feel like if someone is going in at the beginning of lunch time, they would be looking to order lunch menu stuff? I guess I can't expect people to do what I my logic would do. The two koobidehs is pretty much the same thing I order at any of these places because I prefer ground meat that's tender and juicy and this place did not disappoint. They were cooked to perfections with just a little crisp on the meats. Not much else to say since I only had a basic meal....meals

We had it to go, so I can't speak much about the dine-in experience, but I will say the service…read morewasn't the friendliest. We ordered the combo beef and chicken plate, the beef gyro plate, and two falafel on the side. The falafel didn't look impressive, but they were surprisingly excellent--moist, flavorful, and honestly better than Sababa's. I'll definitely order six next time. The gyro plate was solid, not overly greasy or heavy, and the seasoning was just right. I wasn't a fan of the hummus, which had a bitter aftertaste, but my partner liked the tanginess, so that may come down to personal preference. On the combo plate, the chicken stood out: juicy and tender. The beef seemed to be a leaner cut and was a bit dry. I'd probably skip this particular beef kebab next time and try a different one. The saffron rice and grilled tomato were a nice complement. The plate also came with jumbo naan, served warm and smelling amazing, definitely a highlight.

I've had halal kabobs from restaurants all over SoCal and the country and this place is still my favorite. It's a great option for catering (I always get the family platter pictured) and this was my go to place when we lived nearby - the flavors are tasty but not too overpowering so it works for all guests no matter their spice preference. We still drive up to 30 mins to cater from here because the food is always so good and a reliable hit with any guests that we have over. FOOD: The meat is not just flavorful but most importantly, it's somehow always just so moist, so juicy, and so tender all the way through. And it's not just the meats - every item they serve is just really unexpectedly delicious. At most kabob places, the rice/pita/salad/hummus are just weak add ons to fill up the plate, but these items are always so delicious at Kabob House and you can always taste the flavor bursting in every item (my fav is the salad which has a lemon/vinegary kick to it that just elevates the meal). All the items on the menu are great, but my personal favorite is the salmon kabob (if you've never had a salmon kabob, do yourself a favor and try it out and at least add one skewer of it if you get a combo) - the owner recommended this to me years ago, and I've always added at least a couple skewers every time since - all my guests rave about it. SERVICE/AMBIANCE It's a small casual family owned restaurant and the service is always super friendly. You can see the food being made fresh behind the counter which shows their confidence - it's clear they take immense pride in the quality of all their items and are eager to share their food and Palestinian heritage. The price is also exceptional value for the quantity of food you get, especially compared to other similar restaurants. OVERALL: I will continue to eat from here and would highly recommend trying it out.
