[IN A NUTSHELL] fast food Greek food, delicious fries, gyros :O [VERDICT] - APPROVED [RUN-DOWN] I would sum this place up as a fast food Greek restaurant and I'm not sure if that is correct, but to me it isn't an authentic as I would hope. During COVID there is indoor and outdoor seating and there is a lot of room. I haven't had anything like Nick the Greek but I think it's a place you should definitely try if you're looking to have some good gyros.

their Greek bowls with gyro meat are to die for. The rice, meat, sauce and everything in between is seriously finger lick in' good. There's a decent amount of outdoor tables and with being in the heart of downtown Santa Cruz, it's a great casual eating environment. Their bowl options are huge so be prepared to be stuffed afterward!

I love the Greek salad here. The vegetables are always fresh and tasty. The chicken is flavorful and tender. I survived on ordering Nick the Greek salads during Covid and now that they're open again I save the DoorDash fees and come in person. Great service too!

This food was so fresh and delicious with generous portions! We were staying in a local hotel and ordered through a delivery service. The food was thoughtfully packaged and delivered quickly. We had the beef/lamb gyro and the greek salad with gyro meat. So good!

So glad they opened a location in Santa Cruz! This is one of my favorite places to get food when I'm in Santa Cruz. I usually get the Chicken Gyro Bowl and I love that it has a little of everything and doesn't feel too heavy. I always get extra Tzatziki sauce!! The Nick's Fries are also great for sharing and a nice step up from regular fries.
