    Lamb gyro, chicken shawarma, and I think Greek fries
    Edy P.

    Wish I took a better picture but the food was too tasty to last long once we opened everything. Both wraps were amazing and fries, of course, complimented the flavors. My wife and I were full and happy with what we paid. Looking forward to our next visit Sucks about the parking lot but obviously that's out of their control.

    Order ahead if you're in a rush - food is made fresh to order so takes about 10min Parking is on the side street but I haven't had any issues with it so far Service was fast and friendly; they had my to go order ready by the time I got there I ordered the shawarma and it was so flavorful and filling - was definitely a nice treat for lunch Establishment is clean but there's no seating to eat there so it's more of a grab and go kind of place Love the wall art / mural on the building Would definitely come back to try their plates

    Nick Sharma try this new spot out !

    Cute little spot. I love the mural on the side. I love Persian Mediterranean food. Looks like they're making a Tesla charging station right next to it.

    I'm rating for what this is--a take-out food stand, not a sit-down Mediterranean restaurant. And on that basis, it's great! Prices are extremely reasonable, and portions are very generous. They have shawarma and even lamb chops, unlike most quick-serve Mediterranean places that focus more on gyro. We visit the area often and no doubt will go here again.

    So good! Definitely recommend, my craving was satisfied. included hummus Glad they're back

    Greek Fries
    Michael D.

    This was my first time here. I ordered the Chicken Shawarma Plate and Greek Fries. The food was good. The chicken was tender. The fries were cooked perfectly. The portions are huge. It's enough for two people or save half for the next day. The Shawarma plate came with rice, pita bread, grilled tomato and pepper and a small salad. The fries had a lot of stuff on it and beef. I asked them what was in it, but it was a lot of ingredients for me to remember. This place is located on the corner of the intersection. It has a small parking lot, but plenty of street parking. This place is more for to go orders. There's no place to sit or dine. When you order they give you the little buzzer thing. It took about 15 minutes to get my food. The cashier was friendly and answered my questions about the food. If you're in the area and are looking for some good shawarma, this is the place to go.

    Wow this place was amazing!!! I loved how the chicken shawarma plate came with a small salad on the side it was a nice fresh touch to my meal! :) The chicken was cooked well and the hummus was super good. I didn't order extra hummus but I recommend doing so if you love hummus with each bite of your meal. Definitely a hole in the wall. It's located on a fairly busy corner by the freeway. The food was a 10/10. This is more of a pick up and go type of place since there is no seating. They're really efficient as they use the beeper devices to notify you when your pick up order is ready. Pictures of parking are here! Getting into the parking lot was a little tricky but don't let that discourage you from trying this amazing spot !!!! I'm so happy I found this spot.

    I came here today to try the lamb plate and let me tell you it was great! I got the lamb with basmati rice, salad and pita bread. Also came with a nice tomato and peppers. Portions were good and lots of favor. It's hard to find good rice and this place does it right. The girl who took my order was very nice and explained the menu! I got all the sauces to try which were tasty. The hummus and tzatziki were my favorites of the bunch. I will be back to try the gyro wraps and other items. This is a little gem off the 91 fwy/clark exit. If you're close by and like good persian/mediterranean food this is the place! Go see them for a great meal! Food rating: Lamb chop plate 8.7/10

    Feta fries .. they could have put more feta or something . Very little toppings.
    Stephanie C.

    This type of fast food Mediterranean restaurant is by far one of my favorites . I have tried just about all in my area and Nike shawarma is a great contender for #1 in this area ! Their chicken shawarma wraps are very delicious and they don't hold back on the meat portions . I will say while their fries are good , their feta fries were not impressive at all especially for the price . That would be their only room for improvement is their flavored fries

    Side salad

    This location has been several other restaurants in the past and I really hope this location lasts. Grabbed the mixed schwarma and a gyro and I have to say, both were delicious. The plate was pleasing to the eyes and tasty as well. Enjoyed the fact the veggies were super fresh! Lots of vibrant colors and crunch. Loved it. Construction is hurting this business in the short term but if you are in the mood for some good Greek salads or food, please come give this local spot a try. You will be pleasantly surprised.

    Chicken Shawarma Wrap & Chicken Kabob Wrap combo. Sides of hummus and garlic sauce. Combo came with the fries and a drink.

    Nik's has reopened as of today 8/4! They have the same great flavor as before, service was speedy today even with a nice busy lunch rush! They have a few tables to enjoy your meals. They offered a $5 chicken shawarma special all day for the reopening! I got 1 of the specials and the chicken kabob wrap combo! Both were fire ! Got a side of their garlic sauce too for the fries! Both wraps were outstanding with the hummus! Fries have their special seasoning. I should have asked for them double fried but they were still good! Glad to see Nik's crew back in action! Go support the local business!

    Chicken Shawarma Wrap
    Ana H.

    10/10 would recommend this spot to anyone! Ordered the lentil soup, shawarma combo plate, gyros wrap, chicken shawarma wrap and they were all so tasty The worker at the front is lovely and helpful, the food doesn't take long to come out at all. Chicken is a hit or miss for me at restaurants but I love their chicken shawarma! It's not dry and the sauce they drizzle on top pairs nicely with it. The portions are generous and the side salads are also good. I've gone around 2-3 pm when it's not usually busy- the parking lot is under construction but there is street parking available as well.

These many people can only mean one thing, that the food is delicious! I loved their huge menu with food for anyone's tastes. As a Pescatarian it's hard to find salmon at Mediterranean food places and Green Olive had several plates to choose salmon and shrimp. I ordered their Salmon Kabob plate that came with yummy rice, a salad, hummus and a pita. It was served with a garlic white sauce and a green slightly spicy sauce. I drizzled both on the kabobs and rice and everything blended perfectly. The salmon was seasoned so well and was so tender! It was perfectly cooked because it retained the softness salmon needs. I also got a pistachio cheesecake that was so light and delicious without being overly sweet. It was a perfect ending to an amazing food plate. The ambiance had average loud noise level since it is small on the inside, however they have plenty of outdoor seating which is where we sat. Even though there are other Mediterranean places close to me, I can see myself going to this location because of their expansive menu.

There are so many different kebabs to choose from, and I've yet to have one that wasn't delicious. My personal favorites are the steak and the chicken--both are incredibly tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients in every bite. One thing you absolutely cannot skip is the edamame hummus. I had never even heard of edamame hummus before coming here, and now I can't believe I went so long without trying it. It was smooth, fresh, and full of flavor while putting such a unique twist on traditional hummus. It's one of those dishes that completely changes your expectations and has you thinking about it long after you've left the restaurant. On top of the amazing food, the service was outstanding. Everyone made us feel genuinely welcome, and the atmosphere was warm, relaxing, and perfect whether you're grabbing a casual lunch or having dinner with friends or family. The menu is packed with so many dishes that I still want to try, which just gives me another reason to keep coming back. Panini Kabob Grill continues to deliver an incredible experience, and I can't recommend it enough.

Since this is an all-you-can-eat restaurant, I initially expected someone to seat me, but I was simply told to find any available table and start eating. That was perfectly fine with me. The food selection included several salads, meats, and other dishes, but unfortunately, nothing really stood out. Overall, I found the food fairly average. The main reason for my two-star rating, however, was what happened when I paid. My bill was around $36.50. I paid cash with one $20 bill and four $5 bills, for a total of $40, and told the cashier to keep the change. What made me uncomfortable was that almost immediately after I handed her the money--while she was still saying "Have a good day"--she pulled out a counterfeit-detection pen and started checking my bills right in front of me. I understand that businesses may have policies for checking cash, and I have no problem with a restaurant protecting itself against counterfeit money. However, the way this was handled felt unnecessarily uncomfortable and somewhat insulting. She could easily have waited until I had stepped away before checking the bills instead of immediately testing them in front of me as soon as I handed them over. I was not rushing out of the restaurant or behaving suspiciously in any way. Of course, I have never knowingly used counterfeit money. The whole interaction simply left me feeling as though I was being treated with suspicion for no apparent reason. If checking cash is standard procedure, I can understand that. But customer service also matters, and there are more discreet ways to handle it without making a paying customer feel accused or embarrassed. Between the average food and this unpleasant experience at checkout, I can only give this restaurant two stars.
