About this business
THE STORY The idea was born in 2012 after visiting the birth place of the gyro, Greece, on the founders annual trip to their hometown village. Wondering why there were no decent gyros or souvlakia in California, we decided to form our own modern souvlaki/gyro house. The three cousins Nick, Nick and Nick, returned home to open what else? "Nick the Greek," in February of 2014. Our menu features flavorful rotisserie meats, charbroiled skewers, zesty sauces, and the freshest of vegetables. With two generations of family experien... read more

Let me start by saying the staff here is super friendly and very helpful. The food on the other hand was just OK. We all had the Gyros. Beef/lamb and one Chicken. The meat itself lacked flavor and tastes exactly like you would expect from a chain trying to appeal to everyone. The Gyros had waaay too much sauce in them which made them terribly messy. Every bite was a fight to keep the sauce from getting all over myself and the counter. It made it difficult and unpleasant to eat. And that was all four of the gyros we ordered. ... read more
Super good food, DEFINITELY recommend the chicken gyros. Service was good, had a great conversation with one of the employees that was at the cashier.
Not a lot of Greek food options in town, but I'm so glad one of three options is Nick the Greek. Great food. I've had the Greek salad, the gyro, and the gyro plate. All fantastic. Service has been good, and the restaurant itself is always clean.
5/24/2024- I've been to one in Elk Grove, Ca... and wanted to give this location a try.. Parked in front and walked in just after 11:00.. No customers yet, but when I was leaving the to go orders started coming in.. Went with the lamb/beef bowls.. and the garlic fries.. Generous portions on the meat and even amount of rice.. All in all a decent and a bit high for lunch $44 I'd pass on the fries if you're taking them home Ended up being soggy.. Glad to stop in..
I am so happy I remembered this place opened when I was in the area. First off, upon entering the doors, expect to be bombarded with the amazing smells of fresh pitaa and slow roasting meat. My husband and I each had a lamb/beef gyro and we split some loukmades. The gyros were very tasty and full of veg, meat, and sauce and the loukmades were dripping in honey. All of it tastes delicious and I felt the pricing was fair. We got our food to go but I would gladly dine in, in the future as they had a pretty nice setup for a quic... read more
Just wanted to follow up and say I've come back to this place a dozen times since my first negative review and haven't had a bad chicken experience since. Granted, we switched to the souvlaki which is more of a kabob style chicken.

True to Greek traditional foods. Very nice to have this addition to the food choices around town. Will be trying out various menu offerings from time to time. Don't miss out!
Quality/Quantity - Trying to eat healthy hence eating Mediterranean food and chicken rather than red meat. Today I got the Chicken Gyro Pita - Well the beef/lamb is much better. Healthier or not, I will go back to beef/lamb next time I'm here. My gyro had too much chicken fat, I just could not eat it. I almost took a picture, but did not want to post as it was disgusting. And not sure if it was good or bad, but my gyro was very saucy, too saucy and too messy. The good news is that it was of generous quantity, and I almost... read more
I want to say that they have the BEST food. Literally so so good. I had the chicken gyro and it was so so good! I recommend maybe a little too much mustard sauce but still good !! Workers were kind and efficient! I loved the design inside as well, very clean and easy!
