    Stopped by for lunch today. This was my first time trying this location. This location is large inside, with plenty of seating options. You place your order at the front register and they deliver your food to your table. I ordered the chopped salad without peppers or pita chips. I added a side of beef/lamb gyro meat and a side of chicken gyro meat. I also ordered a small fountain drink. I found a table and waited for my order. It was delivered to me quickly and you can see the steam coming off of the gyro meat. My salad was huge. I didn't care for the lemon dressing so I asked the young man at the front counter if I could try the red wine vinaigrette. He was really nice about it and gave me the other dressing to try. The red wine vinaigrette dressing was perfect with the salad and gyro meat. The salad was loaded with cucumbers, tomatoes, garbanzo beans, feta, pickled onions, Kalamata olives and garbanzo beans. It was so good and the gyro meat was hot and savory. It all worked so well together. The ice machine was not working so I had to have my soda without ice. At least the soda was cold. I could only eat half of my salad and got some takeout containers for the leftovers. Overall, I think you get your money's worth with the amount of food you get here. I will definitely come back again.

    Clean and great customer service. Portions are perfect and food is fresh and tasty. I prefer this location over one closer to my house. Great specials. On Uber to save money. Dine in or order for delivery. You will not be disappointed. Great natural light, music in the background. Can wait to come back

    Had a really great experience at Hollenbeck's Greek! The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out hot. Everything tasted authentic and well prepared, and the portions were generous. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and made the whole experience even better. I especially loved the quality of the ingredients and the delicious Greek flavors in every bite. The atmosphere was comfortable and relaxed, making it a nice place for a casual meal with family or friends. Definitely a spot I would recommend if you're craving Greek food. I'll happily come back again to try more items from the menu. Highly recommended!

    Nick's fries

    When did Nick the Greek expand their menu!? They have salads, burgers, and even frozen yogurt which I have yet to try. I ordered the Prasini Salad with a side of lamb/beef gyro. The salad had this lemon-y tangy dressing which just hit the spot. I told the hubby I found a new favorite salad spot. Unlike my last review, the meat was juicy and not greasy as I last remember.

    Ordered takeout on Jan 1. The boys got skewers w/ fries (one steak & one chicken) and I went with a side of lamb. The chicken & steak were both cooked perfectly, a nice char on the outside and moist on the inside. My boys don't eat the salad, so it makes for an easy lunch with a side of lamb. The staff greeted me when I entered and my order was ready on time. The only downside, the fries aren't quite as crispy as we'd like, could be a consequence of takeout ‍

    +++ AMBIANCE +++ This place feels like an upscale McDonalds with a better color scheme hahaha. It definitely gives fast food vibes. I always get it to go so I don't sit there. +++ FOOD +++ \\ Mediterranean Steak Salad $17.95 + tax Dude this was pretty tasty, the meat portion is small but its yummy! The meat is cut into chunks. I love the crunchy chickpeas and the garlic toum is AMAZING. \\ Beef and Lamb Gyro $ 14.95 + tax There is a lot of meat in here, but very little veggie. It is pretty salty, but I put this on top of my salad and I felt like it was tasty. The meat is sliced thin! +++ SERVICE +++ The first time I went, I asked for more garlic toum and the cashier had no clue what I was talking about and she offered tzatziki instead which was nice! The second time I went, I asked for more tzatziki and I didn't get a dirty look that's a win! +++ OVERALL +++ I have already been here twice in 2 weeks. So yeah I will definitely be back (only for BOGOs though)! If you get a BOGO deal... its about $20 to feed 2 people, that's pretty good!

    Excellent price for the delicious Greek style food and lively vibe. I think it's pretty authentic but I'm not qualified to assess since I'm not Greek and I've never been to Greece, but it's delicious. Outstandin service too.

    Water cup from lady at register

    They customer service is really good here I really appreciate when someone actually talks back to you and even before I sat down they asked me if I wanted a cup of water and I thought that was super sweet! Food is also always good here I keep coming lol.

    I stopped in to Nicks for lunch. I ordered the bowl with half chicken and half gryo. I also ordered the chicken lemon soup. I really enjoyed the bowl, the soup was not my favorite version of the Greek specialty I have ever had. Overall, the food was good and the price was right. I would eat here again!

This place is nestled in an industrial neighborhood and is probably really booming during the work week. We arrived around 1PM and there was a larger party of maybe 12 and another party of 4 and us...party of 9. There is patio seating and plenty of indoor seating. There was plenty of parking as they have a parking lot dedicated to their restaurant. Their menu is substantial. All the usual suspects of falafel, kufta, chicken and beef kabobs, humus & pita, etc. We ordered the following: 1. Sword fish plate: which was served with rice and vegetables. The fish was perfectly grilled and a great sized filet. 2. Falafel pita & falafel plate: the pita came with fries the plate came with veggies and rice. Both of the guests of our party that ordered these were quite happy with their order. 3. Beef kabob: these were large cubes of beef, that were seasoned well and grilled perfectly. You get a full skewer on a bed of rice and a side of vegetables. 4. Kufta kebob: which I ordered, and it was a large sized kabob that was bursting with flavor and juicy. On a bed of rice and a side of veggies. I wish they served basmati rice or a long grain rice and that the veggies were just grilled without the sauce. I felt the tomato sauce it was covered it overpowered the natural flavors of the array of veggies on the plate. 5. My mom ordered a 3pc lamb chops plate, and it typically comes over a bed of fries, but we substituted it for rice, and it came with the same side of veggies as the rest of ours. She said it was good and the size of the chops was decent. 6. I got there kind of late so the first half of our party ordered appetizers that we didn't get to try but I ordered an order of fried calamari and I must say my favorite part was what I think was a kalamata olive aioli. It was delicious! Will need to replicate at home. All in all, we were pleased and left satisfied and more importantly full. I'm sure we will be back!

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!

Double Combo Plate I ordered - 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.
