#2 home fries, 2 eggs overeasy, and petfect bacon!
Sharlee R.

I love it here . For a while it's been my Wednesday escape. In the summer I would take the kids for breakfest, and some days alone to unwind fir the week ahead . We love Nick and the staff. Always so friendly and treat the kids with such kindness. There recently renovated last year and it's so well lit and clean. Very welcoming , you feel right at home. Set yourself ans ger ready for some amazing food. The food is always fresh , delicious., and with so much to choose from. My go to is the #2. Which consist for your choice of 2 eggs , home fries, choice or meat (bacon, sausage or ham) Bacon is usually on my plate. Then your choice of toast. I get the homemade white, trust me you want to ask well. The kids get the chocolate chip pancakes. The only thing is the juice comes in a very small glass and no free refills. Besides that it's an absolute must go in . Thank you later .

Corned Beef Hash with rye toast and no green peppers.

This place definitely gives local diner vibes where everyone knows each other, the staff are super friendly, the food is good, and the coffee keeps coming. I enjoyed my breakfast- the hash with rye toast and no green peppers.

Finally made it over and loved it! The open kitchen concept and themed decor give this place a very homey feel. Our waitress was so nice and activated our busy 3 year old with grace. The food was delicious!!! We can't wait to return

Love this place! The prices are reasonable, and Nick, the owner, is awesome--along with his amazing staff. They're always friendly and remember you when you come in, which makes it feel really local and welcoming. I used to frequent his father's location on Amherst and Bush, so I'm so happy Nick moved closer to my neighborhood. I go back whenever I get the chance. I would highly recommend Nick's Express for a great-quality breakfast, friendly atmosphere, excellent service, and of course, delicious food.

Homemade hash with poached eggs.

This place was great for breakfast! I ordered their homemade hash with poached eggs and loved it! Oh, and their homemade white bread made for the perfect toast! I will be back!

Healthy Breakfast #2 on their menu - comes with homemade wheat bread!
Donna Y.

Consistently great food - hands down one of the best breakfast spots! Love the homemade bread and that they serve real maple syrup. Presentation of the food is awesome and the servers are very friendly. The coffee is good too!

Nicks Breakfast #2, a scramble with sausage, pepperoni, hot peppers, onions and mozz. A bellini. Coffee.

My partner and I wanted to go to a sitdown breakfast this past Sunday. Nick's Place Express is near our house and we've never been there so we gave it a whirl. It was really busy - so if you go there, make sure you have ample time to wait and eat. Some might complain about the wait, but a good diner on a Sunday morning will have a wait. Is what it is. The restaurant is pretty bare bones and simple inside. No-frills but clean. The service and food were excellent. The crispy home fries were the star of the show; crispiest I've ever had and they were just what the doctor ordered. The #2 was a standard homestyle breakfast done right. The Italian scramble (I forgot what it was called) was pretty zesty with the pepperoni and hot peppers and was just my style with Tabasco sprinkled on top. I would definitely recommend for a good weekend breakfast. Looks like they have good lunches too with a wide variety of sandwiches and wraps.

Great as always Great portions, great quality food. One of my favorite breakfast spots in buffalo, and I LOVE breakfast. Always consistent. I usually order on doordash (however, I have been to the Nick's Place restauraunt on... Amherst Street?) My orders always come fast with no issues. I also looovee their homemade bread. I usually get the homemade white toast and it is so tasty! Highly recommend for a quick, inexpensive breakfast.

Excellent open chicken souvlaki. So big I couldn't finish it. Sparkling tables and floors. Owner takes pride and it shows

#2 scrambled with feta
Rachel T.

If you live in the area and don't feel like making yourself breakfast- this should be your go to spot! My husband and I order here probably once a week when we want a good breakfast but don't feel like cooking. The take out breakfast is quick and just as good as if you'd ate in. Menu - typical breakfast spot options Staff - super friendly They always have specials, so be sure to ask. We've eaten in once, and the service is quick- it's a small spot but they are expanding, just bought the building next door.

I ate it before I took the picture lol

Ok are you hungry for good breakfast? Fast service? Oh...you are in Buffalo NY as well? We has time…read morebefore the museum opened and decided on breakfast. Lots of little places offering what Starbucks offers (premade offerings). The GPS came up with Mythos. It wasn't far from where we were. We parked on the street behind the restaurant before noticing the blue sign indicating they had a lot behind the building. No matter. Just be aware. You walk in and immediately smell breakfast cooking. We were seated at a booth and ordered a couple cups of coffee. The menu is pretty extensive. She got eggs benedict with toast and hashbrowns. I ordered the steak and eggs breakfast special. It's Thursday morning so not a people in the restaurant. The food is out pretty quick. Coffee gets refilled without having to ask. Eggs are done right, steak is cooked medium, potatoes are a little crispy. Her eggs benedict came out just right, potatoes the same as mine. Plenty of food to fuel up in the morning. We ate and talked for a while. Waitress checked in regular to see if we needed anything. Food is gone, coffee is getting finished. Definitely a breakfast (and lunch) place to check out. Fast service , reasonable prices, quality food. No complaints.

I'll try to keep this brief...we used to order from Mythos on the delivery apps frequently. It's…read morealways been mediocre, but Matt likes the steak sandwich and their soup was decent comfort food. We ordered for the first time in about a year last night, except we've sworn off the apps so we called it in and picked it up...which saved them the 30% commission fee the apps charge them (their prices are the same in-restaurant as they are on the apps). Come to find out they charged us a $1 takeout fee. How does that make sense? We are saving them money! They wouldn't remove it when asked. We can definitely make a better steak sandwich at home with a little better planning than last night and the soup is nothing like I remember. We won't be back...which is not a problem, honestly.

OMG this food was amazing. I was hesitant because I wanted Greek food, but the menu had everything…read moreBUT Greek almost. The waitress was also not familiar with the food. Usually a bad sign. The Greek items are buried in the menu and need to be dug out. HOWEVER... once you find the Greek food it is absolutely STELLAR!!! I'm late with my review and I don't remember all the things I ordered now, but when family comes to town, we will 100% be coming here. It's absolutely outstanding! My only complaint is that they don't seem proud of their Greek menu and those items are buried instead of easy to find and order and the waitress wasn't knowledgeable about all the food. "Back in my day" it was a requirement that servers knew the menus and tastes all the items. Times be a changing. Still, I can't knock a star off because of how amazing our food was.

I was hesitant at first when I saw that the menu is mostly American food, with a heavy focus on…read morebreakfast and brunch. Why would I come to a Greek restaurant for American diner food? With a careful look through the multi-page menu to seek out the Greek items, they are there, you just have to search. And they are GOOD. The spanakopita was especially outstanding so I'll start there - it's a circular roll-up style, a bit heavier on the filo dough and lighter on the spinach filling, with excellent flavor and textures. I loved the hummus and tzatziki (and I make these at home so I'm pretty picky about them). The pitas were hot, fresh, and fluffy. The spicy dip is good but *very* spicy which I wasn't prepared for! I didn't love the dolmades since they were cold and I prefer them warm (seemed actively chilled, not like "plate was sitting", so I assume this was a purposeful choice, just not my thing). The Royal Open Greek Souvlaki is a gigantic salad with a pita on top. This was excellent with char-broiled chicken; it was topped with a very generous pile of feta cheese and came with spicy vinaigrette on the side. We enjoyed the baklava so much we got a second one to take home. It's very filo-heavy with not many nuts and not overly honey-sticky; I couldn't quite place the flavor but it's almost like a cinnamon roll version of baklava. They are pretty large for the price and I'd definitely recommend ending the meal with this if you still have room. The dining area is nice, well lit and with beautiful decor that gives a fun Greek vibe to the space. The ceiling is painted to look like blue sky with clouds, and there is a lovely mural near the back. Noise level was reasonable so you can have conversations at the table without yelling and also without feeling like everybody hears you. Our server was friendly, although we were surprised that she hadn't tried some of the menu items and couldn't give us her opinion on them. Please try the food! Also we didn't get water refills and it didn't feel so busy that water should get ignored. Overall I was very happy with my meal here and I will be craving that spanakopita for a long time.
