    Inside
    Diane W.

    We stopped by for lunch today. I as craving a Greek salad with chicken. This was first time trying Nick the Greek at this location. This is a newer location. The inside is nice and big. The tables were all clean and neat. We placed our order at the front counter. I ordered the chopped salad with no bell pepper, no pita chips and no wax peppers. I also ordered a side of chicken gyro meat for my protein.. I chose the red wine vinaigrette dressing and a small drink. My husband ordered the Mediterranean bowl with chicken souvlaki and an iced tea. We picked a table and waited for our food to be delivered. The food came out fast. My husband loved his Mediterranean bowl. My salad was just okay. I felt like something was missing from it. They forgot to take out the bell peppers. So I had to pick them all out before I started eating. The chicken gyro meat was juicy and tasty. But my salad just tasted bland. It wasn't until after we got home that I realized that they didn't give me any Kalamata olives in the salad. The olives actually give a lot of good flavor to the salad. They are usually prevalent in this salad. Somehow they omitted the olives but gave me the bell peppers that I asked to not add to the salad. Oh well. If I return to this location, I will have to remember to make sure they get my order right and make sure they give the olives that are supposed to be in the salad.

    Very yummy, the food made feel like Greek god (Ares). Love the dessert. Service is speedy. Ambiance is similar to other locations.

    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

    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!

    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.

    Food was great. Clean restaurant and the girl at the cash register is super nice. We'll be back for sure!

    My experience here is usually pretty solid! I usually get the gyro bowl or pita with beef & lamb gyro as the protein. I prefer the bowl bc the pita can be a bit greasy but both are tasty! I always use their mustard sauce and the pepperoncini hot sauce they have in store. Ambiance is fine, nothing crazy. Could be a bit cleaner, but it's not terribly messy. The service is pretty nice.

    Inside, the place and ambience looks nice and clean! The staff are really nice and quick, and the food came out super fast and fresh! Would definitely come here, or another one of Nick The Greek's locations again!

    I just had one of the best gyros ever. The pita was warm and soft, the kind that holds everything together without getting soggy. The meat was stacked thick--tender, juicy, and perfectly seasoned, with that classic roasted flavor you only get from a proper rotisserie.

They are located in a little strip mall on Alma Ave a few doors down from The Giving Pie. The parking lot is not huge but it we were able to find parking with no problem. The inside is nicely decorated with pictures of famous places in Greece. It's not huge inside but cozy with several tables for inside seating as well as a patio outside for outdoor seating. You can scan the QR code at your table or order at the front counter. We ordered from the front counter. We ordered the highly recommended Mousaka, the 3 piece plate with a side of green Greek salad. We chose the chicken skewer, pork skewer, and bifteki for our 3 meat choices as well as an order of Spanikopita. Our food was delivered to our table promptly. I grew up eating my Mom's Mousaka and I've eaten it in Athens, Naxos and Santorini. Let me tell you, their Mousaka was excellent. The eggplant, potato, meat filling and béchamel on the top were perfect. It's definitely a must try. The three skewers of meat were so flavorful and juicy. Both my husband and I loved it!! The pita bread it came with so warm and soft. The Spanikopita was fresh and hot. Delicious flaky phyllo dough with a savory spinach interior. The salads that came with each dish were also wonderful. Their feta on the top was so good and I loved the Kalamata olives. Customer service here was great. The young lady that helped us when we ordered was very friendly and helpful. It started getting busy inside while we were eating and I can see why. This is delicious homemade Greek food made from the heart. We will be coming here more often, now that we know about this place. There are many other things we are looking forward to trying.

A…read moregirl with glasses was doing expo and called my name to pick up the food, so my friend walked up to her and said he was going to pick it up for me as I was gathering my things. She told him "okay, hold on" and made him wait almost 10 minutes. She ends up giving the order to the wrong person, and when confronted about it, she wasn't apologetic at all. Her excuse? "I didn't hear what he said, that's why I said to hang on." There was another older woman on expo floor who was extremely rude too. After telling her they gave my order to the wrong person, she looked at the other girl and said "you deal with it" and proceeded to ignore us. She also had the audacity to look at me and say "well we didn't do it on purpose." Again, NOT APOLOGETIC AT ALL nor did they take any accountability for their mistake. Neither of them apologized at all or offered to make things right. They completely ignored us and didn't care that they made a mistake. They had no idea what they were doing on expo. They were mixing up orders and getting confused when packing the containers of food. No matter how good the food may be, the extremely rude service and lack of attention to detail prevents me from ever returning here. If you ever order to go, whether it's in person/over the phone/online pick up, MAKE SURE you have the right order before you leave; if you don't get the right order, they won't care to make it right or acknowledge their mistake in the slightest.

You can definitely split plates here as the portions are big. We ordered the falafels, baba ganoush, chicken souvlaki plate and the gyro plate. We will be adding this one to our rotation!

    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.
