My photos didn't upload with my previous review but everything was absolutely phenomenal! The food was so fresh and the portions were huge. So glad good Greek food finally opened up in Santa Barbara. I loved everything I had. The service was immaculate and one of the best service experiences I've had. Everyone was so friendly and helpful when it came to ordering and getting my food, as well as making sure I liked everything and had a lovely visit. Loved the ambience as well as there is lots of seating and the layout is great... read more

This place is OK. Decent prices, fast service, food is pretty good for Santa Barbara considering the limited selection of eclectic food in SB. It's basically a Subway Sandwich version of Greek food. But it was satisfying. Nothing to write home about.

First time trying Nick the Greek at the new Santa Barbara location! Food was pretty good, the beef/lamb is thinly sliced and good amount of sauce to food ratio. The fries are crispy and thin, Nick's way is the way to go. The atmosphere was nice, very spacious and clean. The staff was super friendly and service was fast! Expect a good amount of food for the price and excited to try more items.

Came during their launch day and process was super smooth. They even handed out greek froyo to people waiting in line. Food was really good and good sized portions for the pricing

I went for the grand opening. The restaurant is in a great spot, it was clean and the food was simple but really good. I had a beef lamb gyro bowl and nicks fries and it was awesome. Glad Santa Barbara has more of these quicker street foods now!

The first guy who started to take our order was awesome, then the "chef" stepped in and was a complete A+ jerk. My wife ordered the chicken gyros it had at least 1/2 cup mayonnaise and mustard sauce WT I had the beef lamb gyros. It barely had any flavor. I also ordered the Greek salad with the dressing on the side. I wanted to take it home for dinner. The dressing was on it. So at dinner time it was just mush. The tables outside were dirty, well actually the whole patio was dirty. There were so many employees standing aro... read more

not really sure how this place has such good reviews. i was very disappointed. the lamb and beef is combined together mechanically and gave me food poisoning. it was soggy and just disappointing. however the greek frozen yogurt was delicious. if they improved the quality of their meat this place would have so much potential.

Over the last 6 months, we have ordered the Greek Salad at least 5 separate times. The first time we ordered the Greek Salad, it was the best. Since that time, the consistency has been terrible. The last time which was in Jan 2026, there was an abundance of cucumber, with little of anything else. Very little dressing, hardly any tomatoe, next to no peppers and onions. Very disappointed. We called it in and it was ready quickly but a real disappointment. I cannot imagine going back. I filled out a Corporate survey and... read more
