This place is currently having a special on Instacart you get buy one get one free on these gyro bowls! Dinner for two for $15 is an amazing value! The food is exactly what you would expect, typical gyro meat, simple and delicious! The dressing that comes with it for the salad is traditional and is the perfect combination. I ordered to go for pick up so no ridiculous delivery fees for us! Service consisted of handing me my bag and a smile. Again typical of what you should expect. Ambiance is stand as it is a franchise business and they all have similar decor. This is our second time eating here this week! Short drive from our home and we welcomed this new restaurant as there is currently nothing similar within ten miles of our home. Give them a try! read more

really enjoyed this! Very clean. Nice employee. Ordered falafel sandwich. It was very good. My only complaint is.. it didn't come with hummus. you can buy about a 2 tbs size in a little plastic container for $1.50 if you like. Other than that.. plenty of parking and will look forward to sitting outside in the spring:) read more

FWIW, that was great. Pita was soft on the inside and had a good crisp on the outside. Good meat, condiment (tomato/onion) and sauce ratio. Each bite was consistent. Never had a bite with just condiments in it. $13, I would expect maybe a little more meat. It's fast, casual, but I feel like you get a similar experience for cheaper at a food truck or a hole in the wall, and possible with more meat. That being said, you don't always have those options especially in Modesto. I would stop here again, read more

Decided to try out Nick the Greek after moving to Riverbank and I was not disappointed. First of all it is well lit and super clean. I have visited this location 6 times now and have been greeted with a smile every time. I ordered the protein plate and get the chicken with rice and it is seasoned to perfection. Im not a fan of onions so when you get that delicious salad with fresh tomatoes be sure to say no onions. If you happen to be a fan of onions then these purple beauties are for for you. If the dinner doesn't get you the creamy tangy greek yogurt froyo will. The froyo comes plain, with honey or with creamy dubai chocolate. I prefer the honey but both are amazing. I'll be back for sure. read more

Service: The worker at the register was not too friendly. The worker from the kitchen was friendly. Food: The food was fine. It wasn't a mind blowing dish, whatsoever, but it also wasn't awful. Portion sizes were very small, but the price of the meal was quite high. Ambiance: The restaurant was clean, organized, and had a good vibe throughout. There was a nice nook in the corner of the store that was nice to sit at. Overall: I probably wouldn't return to this establishment in the future. Other Points: The establishment was accessible for those in a wheelchair. They also had options for those who are vegetarian. read more

Tried Nick the Greek for the first time because I was close, and had heard they were good. I ordered online for pickup, but found the pickup process to be confusing. I went to the window to get my order, but discovered that I had to go inside because I had ordered a drink. The customer has to get their own beverage from the machine inside. I found this to be an unexpected hassle and took extra time to get my food. The restaurant appeared very clean, but I was the only person in there at the time. Otherwise, the gyro I had was good, but the fries got a bit soggy by the time I got home. I'll try to go back when I have time to eat in the restaurant, because I'd like to try some of the other items on the menu. read more

The Mediterranean bowl is the best thing I've ever had... probably ever. I can never decide between chicken gyro or falafel, so my happy place is just doing both. The workers are always SO NICE, and I'm only assuming the owner because I see him there every time whether it's night or day, but he is also really kind. My kids love the food as well and he was so nice to them. It's so nice they have the outdoor area and it's very clean and bright inside the main dining area. read more

Nick the Greek is always a go to for any time of day to be quite honest. They have wholesome ingredients with flavor through each and every bite. This location is on the small side but it had an adequate amount of tables for patrons. The bathrooms and the entire establishment is very clean. The staff were friendly and even asked if we would like water cups since we didn't purchase drinks. Would definitely recommend Nick the Greek Modesto. read more

First time here. Smelled really good when you first walk in. Unfortunately they had self ordering tablets- I had questions and approached the counter. A nice man noticed me and quickly let me know he'd be right with me. After answering my questions he also gave us his recommendations. When the food arrived it was colorful, appealing and the portions were just right. We ate everything! Will be back. 5plus stars really. read more

food its good to have this kind of fast food place near you and taste some thing else other than the norm . first i love falafel with the tahini sauce.but it was so so bad with the sauce it had on it . and the extra sauce that they give you is even worse. and the sandwich is all letuce and bread and 4 little falafel the 12.00 dollars .its not worth it i did not want to try other food they have . read more

I had an amazing experience at Nick the Greek in Modesto! The pork gyro was absolutely delicious--packed with tender, flavorful pork, fresh toppings, and a warm, perfectly made pita. Every bite was full of flavor! The food was fresh, the service was great, and the staff was friendly. Definitely one of my new favorite spots in Modesto. I'll absolutely be back for another pork gyro! read more

They were incredibly gracious, welcoming, and organized, which immediately set the tone for what turned out to be a fantastic experience. The food was phenomenal--perfectly cooked kabobs that were flavorful, tender, and clearly made with care. Every dish we tried was fresh, well-seasoned, and beautifully presented. It was the kind of meal where everyone at the table was talking about how good their plate was, which says a lot when you're serving a group that size. The service was just as impressive as the food. The staff was attentive, friendly, and efficient, making sure everyone was taken care of without ever feeling rushed. Hosting 30 people is no small task, but they handled it seamlessly and with genuine warmth. Amazing food, amazing service, and exceptional hospitality. If you're looking for a place that delivers incredible kabobs and truly knows how to take care of their guests--whether it's a small meal or a large gathering--this spot deserves your highest recommendation. We'll absolutely be back.

All around good burger. Latin bowl and my boyfriend said it was really tasty everything was fresh. The chicken Caesar salad sandwich another 10/10 sandwich. My friend got this but let me take a bite and it was so good crispy juicy chicken topped with a Caesar salad on top I would definitely order this next time. Her son got the kids burger and LOVED IT. he said it tasted like in n out which is his favorite lol we also got a side of curly fries and a side of sidewinder fries. I would definitely order the curly fries again the sidewinder fries were ok but not a favorite or mine. I wish they had fountain drinks they only have a weird selection of cans and bottles not even regular soda really lol just Coke Zero in small tall cans and diet coke and a few others.
