Gyro Bowl
Kayla W.

Deep sigh. I usually love the Nick the Greek but the last time. My bowl was incredibly disappointing the rice was very undercooked and the meat was CHUNKY rather than sliced. Even the fries were under seasoned. I'm thinking the cooks were just having a bad day. On the plus side, customer service is always friendly.

A solid late-night option with generous portions and well-seasoned food. Stopped by Nick the Greek tonight with BB after observing the memorial of Jesus' death and was glad to see they're open until 11. When we arrived, it wasn't too busy and service was great. We had a chance to talk with Sam, the sister of the owner, who was really sweet and very knowledgeable about both the restaurant and the menu. We ordered the combination souvlaki plate, which came with steak and chicken skewers, yellow rice, Greek salad, diced tomatoes and cucumbers, and tzatziki sauce on the side. The kebabs were well cooked and flavorful, and the rice was tender. Portions are generous -- we ended up sharing the plate. The Greek salad had a nice tangy flavor with feta, olives, tomatoes, red onions, and lettuce, which balanced well with the rest of the meal. Parking can be a little hectic, so plan ahead. Overall, a solid spot with good portions and friendly service. Looking forward to coming back, especially since the Mediterranean bowl is now a regular menu item!! *Early-Congrats on opening your 2nd location on Lakeshore*

I got the soulvaki I think it's called. It had steak and chicken with salad and fries. Everything looked fresh and tasted so good. The tomatoes were delicious! Since the Dave's Hot Chicken just opened a few doors down, I wanted to choose a healthier option and came to Nick's. They were kind and friendly. Another person who wanted a healthier food choice came in while I was there. Again, everything tasted so good. I will be back. Thank you

Super quick. Convenient, healthy options. I love the kids menu and yogurt selections. The rice is so flavored and my kids love the kabobs. The yogurt and honey is my favorite

I always get delivery from this Nick the Greek and it's always solid. Good portions and they can put the sauce on the side if you're not eating immediately. I like the bowls because it's a good mix of greens, rice, and meat.

How do you keep customers from greasing up the glass?

Aug 21, 2025 3.5 stars Our first visit. We stopped by for a Falafel Pita and a Lamb Gyro. Lamb has always been a big deal to me and I'm looking forward to this.. The cashier informs that the Gyro with lamb only comes with lamb and beef together. I agreed to the Lamb\Beef. I'll just seperate the lamb and beef at my table. The two items plus a Coke was $30.87. Not bad. The inside of the restaurant was a little hectic with two thirds of the tables seated with to-go food people. There is a man running back and fourth hectically, wearing jeans and an older T-shirt and a backwards baseball cap. I wonder if he works here? Our food is brought to us by the T-shirt man. Apparently he works here. He is hard working and very friendly but in my opinion he shouldnt be working in food service dressed as I dressed while working farm labor. My Wife digs into her Falafel with gusto. She says it tasts OK. I'm impressed with the size and weight of my Gyro. The sandwich is too wide for my mouth so I pull some meat out with my fork. Hum. I can't tell if this bite is beef or lamb? The texture is a little off as well. Sort of a processed food texture like faux bacon maybe or like well done fried spam? I eat further in through tomatoes and a few French fries and more meat. My wife won't eat lamb but wants a taste of my beef. We don't know what slice of meat is what so she goes without. I finish all the meat. Each slice tasted the same as the others. Hold On Chad P. The taste of these slices in my Gyro are bringing back a childhood memory. I was a Teenager-TV dinners- What is this taste on my tongue? YES! SALISBURY STEAK! It has a taste and texture of a 1970's TV dinner Salisbury steak. It seems as if Nick The Greek is serving up a lamb\beef blended together meat product. Big Disappointment. We were thanked for our business on the way out the door by that hard working friendly guy. That is something that too many establishments neglect to do. Good job on that! When I arrived home and looked at the on- line ordering details of this Beef and Lamb item, the description mentions something about this being a blend of meats. Unfortunately this information was not on the menu above the cashier.

Nick the Greek finally made it to Pinole! Located in the Trader Joe's parking lot and with inside seating this is the place to be . Lot of options from shwarmas, to gyros to Salads with different meat and veggie options . I love their Greek salad as well it's always fresh . Service is good and worth the effort. Recommended!

veggie pita
Donna N.

first time ordering food here, needed more explanations !! I ordered the veggie pita, there was good amount of zuccini, onions & mushrooms plus fries ??Tasty but very messy - so much sauce & stuff was falling out towards the end ... We had a wobbly table towards the rear of the restaurant -so annoying, I wanted to put a pita under the bad leg !!! This space is neat & long, Minimalist w/ grey tones & Greek words ... The platter had pita slices on the bottom under the chicken & not so fresh fries on the side... it came w/a small side salad... our food was unceremoniously dumped on our wobbly table, no explanations ( we couldn't figure out who the salad belonged to ?) The food was ok, I might cOme back to try the falafel... The baklava was disappointing - flat, solid & heavy, hard to cut, not light & fluffy like I was expecting, but still tasty ....

Mediterranean Bowl

I recently had an experience at Nick the Greek that truly exceeded my expectations. We ordered two bowls; one with rice and one without, but unfortunately, I made a mistake with the order. My daughter called the restaurant and spoke to a lovely young lady named Suma. She was incredibly understanding and invited us to come back so she could remake our order. When we returned, Suma was there and went above and beyond for us. She rushed our order and even took the time to step outside to apologize to my husband, who was waiting in the car. This thoughtful gesture meant a lot to us, especially since he is a disabled veteran. Suma's kindness and willingness to accommodate us made a significant difference in our experience. Thank you, Suma, for going the extra mile! We truly appreciate your dedication to customer service and will definitely be back.

It's my 2nd time coming here and love their Souvlaki Plate Combo with steak and chicken. Friendly staff and prices of menu are reasonable. Truly recommend this place to try! :-)

Hummus and pita!  Fresh and yummy.

My wedding anniversary quickly approached and as usual, my wife and I will go out to eat at a…read morerestaurant. We really enjoy Main St. in Pleasanton and hadn't tried Elia yet so we decided to make a reservation and come here on a Monday evening. This restaurant is gorgeous! It's very charming yet fancy at the same time. When we arrived, we were seated immediately. To be fair, it was a slow Monday and there was plenty of seating. We opted to sit outside due to the nice weather. They brought us waters and bread to get started which I appreciated. For drinks, my wife went with the Cab and I chose an old fashioned. Both came out promptly. For appetizer's, keep in mind they're not very large portions and can take a bit to come out. I suggest 1 appetizer will be enough for two people. Order more than you think you need if you're hungry or it's a larger party. Since it was later in the day, we both chose salads for our entrees. They were delicious! You can tell the ingredients are fresh and of high quality. Our server and service was great- we were checked up on just enough but not too much. Our server was soft spoken, friendly and efficient. I always enjoy working with a server who is professional, courteous and not overly invasive. Not only do I plan on coming back, I'm going to be telling all my friends and family about Elia. Will definitely be doing a birthday or two here in the near future.

It was somewhat underwhelming to finally have dinner here. I have heard great things and finally…read moredecided to give it a try. The service was sub par. It felt like there was nobody around when we needed things and when we would hope to flag someone down to try and make further requests it felt like we were being ignored. The appetizers came out in a rather timely manner. If you are a fan of meat then the riblets are for you. They were absolutely mouthwatering and fall off the bone delicious! We also had the meatballs which were okay. Nothing too exciting but if you made sure to include some of the white sauce in each bite then it gave it a little extra pop! After seeing so many amazing photos of the lamb chops I had to try them. I asked for medium rare but received rare. Not too big a deal but for the price, you should expect to receive them cooked to order. There was a nice char flavor to the outside and a rich juicy taste on the inside. A few of the cuts were rather chewy. I tried it but didn't finish since it wasn't what I had expected and I'm fairly certain it made me and my fur babies sick. (I fed the rest to my dogs when I got home and they got sick) The final disappointment came in the form of two small pieces of cheesecake that cost $30+ and carried a bitter aftertaste. I thought I was imagining it and asked my friend to confirm, and he did. The blueberries on top were unimaginably sour and it seems like they just slapped some grape smuckers jelly on top. Not to mention a chunk was missing from one of the cheesecakes. If you have the money to waste and want a nice place to relax their outdoor seating is pretty cosey. A nice place to enjoy some cocktails with friends if you are in the mood.
