OVERALL: Downtown San Mateo is a fun leisurely area, with B Street blocked off for pedestrians, lots of outdoor seating in the area, but not this specific restaurant. The ceilings are high, so it feels more airy. Just a general great spot for some good food! Fountain options for soda or iced tea, also had bottled soda and water. It is in the downtown San Mateo strip, on 3rd Ave. PARKING: You may want to try to find a spot in the parking garage off of B Street. (Go left if coming from 101). It's $1.25/hour, up to 3 hours, pa... read more

Everyone here was so helpful! I had to place a very late catering order and the manager personally touched base with me to reconfirm details and to reconfirm delivery on the day of the event. Highly recommend ordering from this location!

You want simple ingredients, Mediterranean inspired flavors, and a quick bite to eat? Nick the Greek has you covered. The chain seems to be popping all over the place and there is an appreciating for the consistency across all the branches. Service is usually speedy and gets the job done.This newer location is not the largest but has a few dine in tables. It's more of a grab and go honestly but can't beat the downtown convenience (unless you're trying to get a parking spot on busy weekends). The food uses simple ingredien... read more

I've been to many Nick the Greeks but this location by far is the best one I've been to. The food was great per usual as I always order the classic gyro bowl. Our server Demetria very kind and helpful.

Got a bowl and a pita wrap for take out and they were both great! I think this is as good as it gets for a chain restaurant. The location is centrally located in downtown and spacious inside with a ton of seating. The staff seem really nice too.

You know great food when you have it... and the food in this place is absolutely delicious! I've had Greek food in super high end places and I can tell you hands down, this Nick the Greek is my favorite. The meat is juicy, super tasty, the portions very generous and all the ingredients are so fresh! You really get a sense that the owners put their soul into it. Oh and the service is also exceptional! Would highly recommend.

I came here for a late night snack! I was expecting it to by like Souvla and it was quite far off. The yogurt itself was ok but I think it needed to be a lot tarter. The baklava was really disappointing. It tasted like really gummy stevia maple syrup, it was not crispy, and there were zero nuts in it. Pretty disappointed and will not be back for the frozen yogurt.
