Fries
brenda s.

Stopped here at about 6:30 on a Saturday evening because Greek food sounded good after too many meals of Asian, Italian and other heavy foods. It was great! I got the falafel pita which had 4 large falafel, tzatziki sauce, tomatoes and onions. Might have been a few too many onions but otherwise was perfect. Husband got the beef and lamb gyro meal with fries and a soft drink. Gyro meat was very good and fries were crispy and there were a lot of them. Service was good and we did not leave any leftovers. Would return for sure.

Gyro

Awesome gyros, the nicks fries are the bomb. Highly recommend this place! Pretty good deal too!

Why did it take me so long to try this place? I'm not sure but I'm so glad I did. I crave Greek flavors and Nick delivers them well. While the gyro meat served is essentially the same as that which is served everywhere, they differ in the other protein offerings, which include pork belly and chicken souvlaki. I had the bowl with chicken souvlaki and added the pork belly gyro. I loved the variety of flavors and textures in the bowl. The pickled onion and the crispy chickpeas were additions that took this bowl up a notch beyond the typical. All in all, solid and would do again and will soon. So why four stars? Primarily because ordering was a lil confusing and staff didn't steer us back towards the intended order which resulted in a VERY expensive salad that was close to half the bill for four people. For real. Greek salad add a skewer of chicken and it was about $25 vs my bowl with chicken plus added side of protein for about $20. And the Greek salad didn't have any lettuce and only a few olives plus the shaved cheese vs the chunks of feta that are typical. Not sure but something there didn't Add up.. The chicken souvlaki was also a tad on the dry side and the pork belly had several bites that hadn't properly rendered and made for some unpleasant bites. Overall though, quick, fresh, clean, friendly, fantastic. The second and third locations opened just after this experience so I'll be checking out the summit store soon.

Gyro Bowl
Sarah Z.

Always one of my favorites in Reno. I enjoy the gyro bowl with beef/lamb. My order is always accurate and flavorful.

Menu

This was our first time here. We ordered two beef and lamb gyros and a chicken gyro to go. The menu said the sandwich came with fries. Four fries is not what I would consider fries with a sandwich. They do offer a separate order of fries for an additional four dollars, but I think it's false advertising to say their sandwich includes fries. The sandwiches were OK, but I've had better. The employees were polite and helpful. Nick's has designated several "only Nick" parking spots available in the front. The restaurant is a chain and inside was clean and inviting with available seating, if you plan to eat in.

A convenient no frills spot with healthy and fresh menu options that don't skimp on flavor. They do what they advertise well, and that's convenient, fast, franchised Greek food. The workers were kind, the food came out fast, and it really scratched my craving for a decent salad. The gyro meat tasted great and overall I left full and satisfied.

Not bad. Good but not great. Coming from Detroit with a plethora of greek people and restaurants, I can say that I have had some pretty damn good Greek food. I was craving it the other day and Nick the Greek fit the bill, however it is a chain and I am not a big fan of chains, any of them. The fries were clearly not fresh very stale tasting and obviously been sitting there for some time. I would definitely request freshly made fries when ordering next time. The dining room is spacious and the staff were very friendly. It has the ambiance of a typical fast food type of loaction dining room. We ordered the lamb/beef gyro and the Gyro bowl. Both entrees were decent. I do like that they cater and they are one of our favorites at my office for catered lunches at work and I do request them often. I look forward to trying their rice next time.

Gyro Lunch Special
Peter H.

I don't know why I don't come here more, it's delicious and the service is great! I stopped by for lunch after a Lowes trip and was quickly greeted by the woman at the register. I decided on what I assume is one of the most popular items, the Gyro Lamb/Beef and made it a lunch special which includes fries and a fountain drink. It came out pretty quickly and everything was hot and fresh. The fries are some of the best I've had, they taste fresh cut and were cooked well. The gyro is delicious and also has fries inside of it which is an interesting and tasty addition. I was very satisfied with the meal and service, and highly recommend Nick the Greek to anyone looking for a nice quick serve greek meal.

My gyro, Nick the Greek! A lamb and beef menu item.
Don

This was great! Seriously, quick service by a very polite staff, reasonable prices, a clean and organized dining area. I got the food to go, but was very comfortable waiting at a table. You know, So many fast food, or "good foods, fast" places, you don't want to touch the tables. This place was clean. The food came out hot, with an excellent presentation, and damn good portions. I got a traditional Gyro and the garlic fries! Good thing I'm single, no one was gonna kiss me after that batch of garlic fries! All in all, kind of a quiet little place. Well worth the visit!

Falafel bowl! Hummus was great too.
Tamami T.

I've seen the store sign while driving, but we finally had a chance to go in for lunch. Clean and spacious inside, and pretty welcoming. Despite being a weekday, there's a stream of people coming, staying and going. Good sign. The service is very nice. The food? WOW. I had a falafel bowl, and everything is fresh. Rice is warm, not greasy, and not too salty but flavorful. Veggies, fresh. A generous serving of tasty hummus. Falafel? One of the best I've had in my recent memory. Crunchy outside, tender and fluffy inside. Flavored just right. Hmmm so good. Husband had a beef/lamb gyro, and he loved it too. I'm glad we stopped by. We'll be back for more.

Trash can
Ying V.

We love coming here for lunch. When you walk in your breath is taken away by the plethora of modern finishes and decor. This is only matched by the exquisite flavors that bring me back to the streets of Greece. They could probably use a bigger trash can though.

Ask the Community - Nick the Greek

How many other locations of this restaurant are there? Is this a chain that has grown across California and beyond?

Originating in San Jose California Nick The Greek has 75+ locations now with a bunch more on the way, across 8 states and as far east at Tennessee

Is there anything on the menu that is dairy and soy free? Or can be ordered that way (eg. no sauce)? Thanks!

You’d basically need to stay away from the sauces like you mentioned. We do have hummus for a sub on those things

You can build a bowl, salad, wrap, or anything in between. I was so impressed with the selection of toppings and proteins! You can do chicken, gyro meat, or beef, and load it up with all kinds of Mediterranean treats. I ordered a salad with chicken. The portion size is huge! I added feta cheese, cucumbers and tomatoes (those come together), peppers, Kalamata olives, and red onion. Then they allow you to choose a few sauces, and I went with cilantro sauce and a Greek vinaigrette. I was shocked by how fresh-tasting everything was, how huge the portion size was, and how affordable it was. This place is a game-changer, and I wish there were locations all over. The vibe isn't much, but grab some awesome food and take it to go or eat in the Joe. I haven't been a student at UNR for 7 years, but I literally told my wife we should go to campus just to eat here!

By the end of my order I really didn't want it but felt like a jerk after they started making the food so just paid. I ended up with falafel, lettuce, pita and 2 veggie toppings. They offered fries as a substitute for the rice but the fries were just sitting on the counter looking cold and miserable. I passed.

Indoor seating and 1 outdoor table. Plenty of parking. Open 7 days a week from 10:30am to 7:30pm, Sundays until 6pm. Service - I could not tell if they were open or not. As we got here early and the sun was so bright, I could NOT tell if their open light was on or not. Plus I was the only customer here. Not friendly or welcoming, but also not rude. Price - $35.68 non cash price. It would have been nice to have known that there is a charge for using a credit card. It would have been nice to have had the option to pay cash. Not a fan of surprises. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 2013.

First off, the location is just plain cool. It's off a side street, inside an office or apartment building (not sure!) and built in under a stairwell that's painted all black. You order through a small window cut into a black wall, and the experience just hits different. The menu is tiny but mighty. I ordered the falafel, which comes with a housemade sauce of your choice, a scoop of the housemade hummus and a selection of delicious pickles (Watch out for the cukes. They spicy!). The falafel are sizeable, fried super crispy, but a bit more dense than those I've had before. These are substantial and a beefy meal, or ample shareable for a few. They're also a super value at $8. I also had the Crimson tea. The Sichuan peppercorn and sweetness were a great surprise. I'm def coming back soon.
