Nick the Greek is a chain but I have to say this one has been my favorite location so far. I went in on a Sunday night for Greek Easter because my fam was busy and we couldn't celebrate tonight. Got the prasini salad with olives and gyro meat (I'm doing the low carb thing) and it was incredible. The gyro meat was really flavorful- salad was fresh. Side pork skewer for $3.50- sign me up! That was cooked to perfection. Top it off with friendly employees and great service.
I used their catering service for an all day interview session at a local hotel. First, the online ordering system was extremely easy to use. My only suggestion is adding hummus to the option for catering. Secondly, the delivery was on time, was well packaged and hot. Lastly, the food was so delicious. I had gone there to eat previously to having them cater so I knew it would be worth the $700 order I placed. Generous portions and will definitely use them again in the future for more catering.
Ordered a lamb/beef gyro. Waited about 10 minutes for the food (they were busy - normally a good sign)! Somehow my freshly made gyro had COLD and soggy French fries inside it. That was frustrating. On top of that, the tzaziki sauce tasted more like mayonnaise than tzaziki. It's a good location, clean, and the workers are friendly. Just not the best gyro I've had.
Fast, very polite, courteous service. Food was fresh, tasty, and not under- or over-seasoned. Surprisingly delicious. I only say, "surprisingly" because technically, this is fast food. Definitely coming back multiple times. Pics are of the pork belly gyro plate with Greek fries, chicken souvlaki plate with saffron rice, and Greek side salad!!
Wow- first time at Nick the Greek. Ordered what I thought was a plate of kebab, but was a deliciously delightful CHICKEN SOUVLAKI. I cannot pronounce it but you absolutely need to try it. Amazing and will go back again for sure
Love nick the Greek specifically their souvlaki plate! Super fresh and great seasoning. It's my first time coming to this location and they left out a lot of what ordered which is a bummer but will def come back!
Travelled to Foster City from the east coast.. first time here, absolutely incredible! Food was amazing and the atmosphere was excellent!
Amazing food! Staff is friendly. I love how fresh their food is. I've been going back-to-back to their restaurant. I've ordered veggie and falafel gyros , side of pita , and falafel bowl. The portion size is perfect. If you eat at the restaurant the hot food tastes amazing and fresh. I've been during their lunch which is often the busy and there are people waiting outside to order. Great for kids as well.
Nice place, courteous, attentive, engaging, supportive service. Best to avoid beef/lamb Gyro. Too salty to enjoy meat and other seasoning. I ordered two and did not eat the second. Frankly I am not accustomed to french fries inside the Gyro so had mine made without. Sauce is very good as are pita and onions in the wrap. Ordered Gyro plate with chicken - not much to write home about. The salad on plate, and Baklava are good. I will go again as location, parking & access are extremely convenient My only wish is for ... read more
