To be fair, I only went once and got a chicken gyro. It was OK. The default sauce was sweet and sugary, too much on the sweet side for me. The service was friendly enough. It just wasn't enough for me to come back food-wise. It was just OK unfortunately.

Finally a good inexpensive Greek place. This place hits the spot again and again. The gyro is top notch. I was to try something else but the gyro is so good, that's what I always get. Nice, efficient, hard working staff. Highly recommend, Chris R

This was not my choice, but glad to have had it today. The place was clean, and the gent at the counter was chill. Got two pitas with no fries inside. He asked if I wanted the fries on the side instead. Surely! But alas, that wasn't meant to be, as there were no fries. The pita was stuffed with meat. It was great.

Fast service and pleasant staff. You place your order at the counter, receive a number, and wait at your table for your food to be brought to you. Our order was served very quickly. We enjoyed the Greek-style fries and the vegetable pita. The vegetables in the pita were grilled yet still slightly crispy, which is the perfect texture for a pita. The interior is simple but nice. I highly recommend this place. I will definitely come back to try other dishes.

DELISH! CRAVEABLE! I came here upon reading the mass of positive reviews online...SO GLAD I DID! NUTSHELL: Spacious interior. Clean and comfortable. Great good! The employees are gracious and greet you with a smile. **We ordered the lamb/beef gyro and Chicken Souvlaki gyro. You can add cucumber, olives and spicy sauce, which I highly suggest! The cucumbers were cool, crisp and perfectly seasoned. The Greek olives added the perfect touch of salt. The spicy Greek yogurt sauce was perfection! The gyro is lar... read more

Great food, great service! Best Greek food I've had on the west coast! Gyros perfectly done and put the Mad Greek to shame. Stop in every time you're downtown!

I first had Nick The Greek in Davis, and absolutely loved it! I was naturally very excited when one opened in Santa Barbara. After only being open a couple of weeks, it was packed on a weekday evening; a good sign as there have been so many gyro/kebab restaurants come and go over the years, and I absolutely love gyros! In the heart of lower State St., the insight is bright, spacious and comfortable. They have several gyro and combo offerings, falafels, salads and Greek desserts. We got a lamb gyro, chicken gyro, fries and s... read more

Went for my first time and ordered the lamb gyro and side salad- both amazing! Service was very fast and the cashier was friendly.

The staff here were great! Very friendly. The salad was fresh but didn't have much flavor. The lamb meat was delicious and perfectly cooked. Pita bread had some fantastic spices on it to give it a great taste. French fries were also solid. The restaurant was very clean and there were fun decorations. I'll be back for sure!
