    Loved the falafel pita here. It had tomatoes, cucumber, onion, tzatziki and falafels. So pretty basic toppongs compared to other places but it tasted good. Greek style is different than others with a thicker fluffier pita which tasted quite fresh. Very close to where I stay so will be visiting more often!

    Every time I come here, the service becomes better and better. My server today was above and beyond, they were more than ready to help me answer questions in order to help me decide what to order and were super attentive to my needs! I feel the meals are always a balanced proportions but there was an abundance of meat for my plate today! I feel like usually restaurants may be stingy with the protein, not this one though. I love everything about this location and how close it is to me, and how reliable they are. There was only one time I came here when I was craving the frozen yogurt with baklava and their froyo machine was down. But overall, I really love this place and it is definitely the better of the fast food chains in terms of quality and ingredient freshness!

    Got myself a falafel sandwich for dinner tonight from here. Ordered through uber and they often have a b1g1 deal. The place is nice and clean and has ample seating. My falafel sandwich was quite good. It was filled well and tasted fresh. Much better than the downtown sj location. I'd gladly eat here again.

    Great place to eat some good food. Restaurant is always clean and the food comes out fast and delicious. The prices keep creeping up but inflation is everywhere nowadays. No matter what I've gotten to eat here, it is always delicious.

    Stopped by Nick the Greek and ordered the combination plate. Everything was fresh and flavorful, and the portions were generous. The meats were cooked well, and the meal was satisfying. Service was good

    Super clean place to come eat . I always order through DoorDash today we decided to come over as a family . Super excited

    Beef/Lamb Gyro Pita with fries, yum!  Tahini Crunch is a favorite too.

    This was the location where I first tried Nick the Greek, and I was hooked. I've heard from other people I know, that they tried Nick the Greek in another city and hated it, but it must be the location. This location, is always fresh tasting, and delicious. I moved farther north San Jose, and when I'm on this side of town, I make sure to stop in. The staff is always friendly, and the restaurant is always clean. Let me know what you think!

    The big red spot is paprika, the tiny red spot underneath it is the "harissa" sauce they are always confused about.

    Not sure if it's all locations, but the portions here are not worth the money. They charge you $2 for "extra" sauce, or they are straight up "out of sauce", or don't even know what sauce I'm talking about. I don't like to have to pay extra just for it to look like the picture I ordered. Just overall kinda poor customer service.

    I didn't realize you could add vegetables like cucumber and tomatoes to your order. This is a game changer. Nick fried with added vege is well worth it.

    Gyro bowl with chicken

    Nice clean restaurant. Friendly service. Everything tasted fresh and good. Solid proportions for price. Zero complaints. The only downside is I like how the Kebab shop has the sauces out for you to take and doesnt charge extra for sauce like Nick the greek does. That's my only complaint and no fault of this location. Its a good location I will be back thank you!

Double Combo Plate - Turmeric Rice - Chicken Shawarma and Gyro Beef - The Works (Everything included) - Tzatziki sauce - Falafel (Side) - Waffle Fries (Side) Okay, the presentation of the combo plate wasn't the most aesthetically pleasing, but I looked past it. Unfortunately, the chicken and beef were lacking in flavor and were pretty dry. The portions were generous, though the gyro beef was sliced pretty thin. The veggies were actually fresh, which was a plus. The hummus was on the lighter side flavor-wise, while the Baha Ghanouj had a solid roasted aftertaste. The Achilles spread was... interesting. It was very fatty with a garlic aftertaste. It just wasn't my thang. The waffle fries were cool. They were fried well and had a good crunch, but nothing special. The falafel, though, was pretty disappointing. I'm not sure if I just got a bad batch. They were very crunchy, but had a weird dish-soap aftertaste that I couldn't get past. I couldn't finish the rest. Sorry, but I'll be on the lookout for another Mediterranean spot.

    1st time here. A friend invited me to join her, and said it was where many of her co-workers ate…read more The short version is: my meal was very sub-par, and way over-priced. The details: I normally don't eat a lot of meat, so I chose the Falafel Salad. It came with extremely little lettuce, plus a few olives (which I don't eat), onions (which I also eat sparingly), tomatoes, cucumbers, and the falafel balls. Oh! And there was feta cheese, but those were such miniscule pieces, and so few, that I wouldn't have remembered it was supposed to be part of the salad, if I didn't just pull up a photo online with their ordering system. What you see in the photo online is not what you get. The photo actually looks like a salad. Since it was called a salad, I expected there to be more lettuce, than the few pieces on the plate. I mainly was cutting up the cucumber & tomato pieces to go with the falafels. I don't even recall any dressing. There were also some pita slices with what I assumed was hummus. Whatever the dip was, it did not taste good to me at all. So I left all of the pita bread, as well, since it was dry without anything on it. Maybe what I assumed was hummus was a dressing. Hard to know, but it was not tasty. For the $27 I paid at a walk up counter, I would have expected much better food! I have bought frozen falafels at Lunardis (around $7) and made a salad for them at home, and enjoyed it very much, which is why I ordered it. I have purchased Spanakopita at the store many times, (about $5 for around 12 of them at the store) and made them at home, which is why I didn't order that. The falafel salad was not an enjoyable meal for me at Yiassoo's. I'd also seen some reviews from a few years back that said they paid around $10 or $11 for their meal. That is more in-line price-wise with what you get, based upon my meal. With most of the meals around $20 for lunch, I feel they were very over-priced. I also asked my friend if she'd like to split a Baklava. They had a pistachio one & chocolate one. My friend wanted to try the chocolate one, so I bought that. I didn't think I was too into baklava, but thought it might be nice to try at this highly rated Greek restaurant. The main flavor that came through was the honey & nuts. The chocolate was just a tiny, narrow drizzle on top. I didn't hate it, but I would never order it again. My friend took one bite, and said she mainly tasted the honey, and would take it home for her husband. It may be very good baklava, but it was not to our tastes. My friend ordered the Gyro salad. It had a large pile of shaved meat, and she seemed to enjoy it. She ordered it To-Go, as she knew she'd be taking some of it home. She seemed to have more lettuce under her pile of meat than my meal got. Maybe because it was in a To-Go box, which might be larger than the plate? Or maybe the person making my salad just wasn't paying attention to how to make a decent meal. I was hoping I was trying a restaurant that I could go back to for something different. Based upon my experience, I would not go back, if I had a choice. I gave it 3 stars, because maybe other dishes, or people looking to just eat meat or falafel balls and not much else would enjoy it. I only have the 1 meal to review, but it does not encourage me to try it again. Overpriced & not a fulfilling meal.

We got: - dolmades mezes starter: it was warm and had beef in it which was unexpected -- I'm almost certain we had a different version of these before that did not have meat and were served cold, I have never really loved these lol but my partner has really enjoyed the cold version before because he found it really refreshing. The warm one was interesting, still enjoyable to him but not as much as before - beef souvlaki plate with fries instead of salad: I loved this! I asked for no lettuce, and the server said I could switch out the salad for fries instead. The beef was so tender and flavored well, super savory, and I absolutely LOVE the olive dip that comes with this dish. The fries were okay! I enjoyed dipping them into the olive dip. - swordfish souvlaki wrap no lettuce with fruit: option to get fries instead, but we got fruit. My mom liked it! I tried some of the swordfish and it had a nice light flavor, quite tender and very nice. I've also gotten the grilled branzini before, which is a whole entire fish. Warning that you may need to use your hands to eat this directly lol I really enjoyed this dish too! When we arrived, they mentioned we could sit anywhere we wanted. There was both indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outdoors so it was a tad warm but they provide shade. There is a tent as well with a plastic surrounding but as for any restaurant with these plastic surroundings, I always find the plastic smell so strong and offputting, so we sat at the tables instead where they have umbrellas providing a lot of shade. We sat next to a bougainvillea bush which also provides us shade and some entertainment as little birds hopped back and forth inside the bush and then out of it to nearby tables, looking for food. So cute! Parking can be found in the lot behind the restaurant, but the entrance is still found around the other side of the building, on the side of the outdoor seating. You can also park on the side of the street in front of the restaurant, but there's less shade. We arrived at a 3pm on a Friday with almost no one else there, so once our whole party was present we got service immediately. The food takes some time to cook but as mentioned, it's delicious. Overall a really cute restaurant!

There was a generous amount of chicken pieces inside, together with some vegetables (onions, lettuce, tomatoes) and a delicious tzatziki sauce.
