    Customer service lady tonight v Wry unprofessional an check out didn't handle the customer with care just mean didn't even want food an drove from Chicago

    Gyro plate (fries not shown)
    Jim D.

    There isn't a secret ingredient nor any gimmicks about this place. Just a plain yet well executed sandwich which is prepared to order. Wait was about 5 min however the redeeming quality of this place is the price. This much for for $10' is rare territory in a city chuck full of overpriced bull.

    Two bites in and I'm full

    This by far is the ABSOLUTE BEST I've ever had for a Gyros! The serving size is ridiculous & serves at least 3 but the taste. I don't know what they do or how they do it but it's really REALLY GOOD!!

    I can't wait for my next visit to Nicky's Gyro. It's an establishment that sets the standard for fine dining in Calumet City, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who appreciates exceptional cuisine.

    Dipped Italian Beef with sweet peppers and cheese
    Andre W.

    Grew up on this place as I lived a couple of exits north of the Sibley Blvd exit. This is the place where I got introduced to Italian Beef (dipped with sweet peppers and cheese) as a teenager and one of the spots me and the homies hit-up before heading home after the club in the early 20s. Whatever you want, they can hook it up! Gyros, Burgers, Gyroburgers, Italian Sausage, fries, etc....anything the average greasy spoon has! The only issue is their small parking lot. I always just park on the side street to avoid being jammed in. Check it out as its right off the 94 expressway, heading east.

    So many fries!

    This place is a little gem. The gyro platters are super big and very tasty. The service was good and friendly. The bathrooms were clean.

    Best Gyro hands down, their gyro sauce is made to perfection. I recommend the gyro plate cause you can save one for later.

    I have become a huge fan of this place particularly since I solved the GrubHub problem of repeated…read morecancelled deliveries--if you order through Yelp and live on the south side your order may well be cancelled at the last minute and not delivered. The wonderful customer service driven young lady who answered the phone confirmed she'd received my orders and prepared them and multiple drivers had come but not taken delivery. UberEats is the way to go. I highly recommend the curly fries, grilled cheese sandwich (add bacon--everything tastes better with bacon), patty melts and onion rings. Be careful with the "hotdogs" because they are more akin to a polish sausage than a Vienna Beef hotdog--still delicious but just an FYI. So the very best thing about this place are the milkshakes, especially the Green River Milkshake which harkened me back to my youth and this shake at Goldblatts or the bus turnaround on 63rd & South Park (now King Dr. and its long gone). Great place dine in, take out or delivery!

    I've been craving a smash burger and I decided to stop on here for lunch. My first time but I've…read morebeen driving by several times since I moved to Chicago. Ordered the cheese burger with everything and decided last minute on the Irish nachos since I heard people review them. The burger was a nice size and cooked well. It was delicious, I enjoyed it. The Irish nachos, not so much. It was a heap of sodium city omg I didn't really eat them. So the cheese is the ultra processed cheese on them so it was super salty. You got the salt from the fries, the fake cheese and the bacon. Way too much salt for me and that fake cheese was revolting for me :( Note to self, NEVER order that if I return. It's a cool, old school dinner type of spot. I was the youngest person in there so not sure if younger folks go there or not. The service was good.
