Nick The Greek - Phoenix

The name of this place reminds me of the character Nick from the movie Bachelor Party, but the food here bears no resemblance. I was staying at a hotel close-by and this was a quick, convenient lunch option. The lady who took my order was helpful and patient while I decided what I wanted. I was a bit hungry so she thought the platter was the better option. She also didn't make fun of me when I pronounced it Gyro and she said Gyro.The Gyro (or Gyro) platter was pretty big. There was a lot of meat which had some crispy edges and was delicious. There was plenty of rice (I chose that over fries). The lettuce, tomatoes and red onions were all fresh and delicious too. The small salad even had 2 Greek olives.It could have come with more Tzatziki, but they always could use more so I ordered an extra one. It think it was only 0.50 too which is a plus. I should have asked for extra olives too, but didn't know they had any!It was a lot of food and I didn't finish it all, even though I was super hungry when I got there. Soda pop refills were free which was good on a hot afternoon (108 or so). I'd go here again if I wanted a gyro, but there are a lot of other choices around too.

Nick's was a nice spot in downtown Phoenix that had a traditional menu and extremely reasonable prices for the city. The decor was modern and it was nice and cool inside. We had chicken gyros and they were both very good. The fries in particular were tasty and not too greasy. They have a nice selection of drinks and indoor seating and this is a huge plus to escape the heat. The flavor of the food was good and the service was quick. I had never realized there was a Greek option downtown by the stadiums and convention center, and would definitely stop by again in the future to try some other options.

What a fantastic place I stumbled upon while walking around downtown Phoenix the other day. I walked inside and it was clean and organized looking so I decided to try it. The gentleman taking my order was very polite and helpful. And the good.... Oh my goodness! It was a full bowl of flavor and tastebud explosions! It had rice, meat, lettuce, onions, tomatoes, sauces and it was amazing!! This place is definitely on my go back to list next time I'm down there!! Thanks for the great food!!

I've been here about ten times now. First 6-7 times I had the gyro and loved it. You can read my prior reviews to see how that evolved.Anyways I just had a chicken souvlaki plate and it was amazing! A perfect lunch imo. Healthy and yummy. Came with a small Greek salad, rice, and two kabobs of grilled chicken with a delicious mustard marinade. Some ripe tomatoes and red onions too. A little mini feast and a perfectly balanced lunch. Also came with plenty of grilled pita triangles and a tangy yogurt dip.This is how I love to eat. It isn't "health food". It is delicious and has some carbs (rice and pita) and some fat but it it is very well balanced with grilled chicken, salad, and veggies. For $12 you can't really beat it downtown. Restaurant is always spotless. Service is always top notch. The one time I did have a small issue the owner took it extremely seriously. I highly recommend this place. It's in city scape. For some reason people don't eat outside enough but the weather is great and they just redid the area outside. It's a great place for lunch with good energy and plenty of people watching.

Great spot in Downtown Phoenix. Came in for a quick dinner and was pleasantly surprised how amazing the Beef/ Lamb Pita was... The service was fantastic, friendly, and made my order to perfection. Definitely look forward to coming back again.

Pretty good option if you're in the area! We were downtown for a sporting event and wanted to grab some food beforehand; in searching Yelp, I found Nick the Greek. We had gone late afternoon, so it wasn't busy at all. Orders can be placed at the counter & they bring your food out to you.I ordered the Chicken Gyro pita with Greek fries, my husband got the Pork Belly pita, my mom got the falafel bowl, and we ordered the kid's plate with chicken gyro (came with fries & pita) for my son. I really liked the chicken, it was very flavorful and the pita had a good amount of toppings. I didn't realize the pita had fries inside; would probably order without them next time if I'm getting the side of fries. But I'd definitely skip the "Greek" fries option. They were just topped with feta & green onions.My husband and my mom liked their food. I think the meat options were better, as we've had fluffier tasty falafel at other places. The falafel here was thicker, more dense. I liked how the bowl was put together though, so would get that next time .. or Nick's fries, which had similar toppings as the bowl but with fries.Overall, wouldn't drive out of my way to eat here. However, if you're heading to downtown Phoenix and are wanting Mediterranean food, this would be a good option.

Was downtown and thought Id try something new. The food ....was alright. Nothing spectacular about it. A bit pricey and the customer service was okay. The french fries honestly reminded me of in&out fries. Theyre like cardboard, tastless, soft and not appealing at all. Not a fan. The restaurant is nice and open. Everything in this picture plus a drink was $30. Thats insane.

Finally, Downtown Phoenix has a Greek restaurant nearby. If only I had cravings for Mediterranean when Nick the Greek first opened up a couple months ago. But on this most recent visit, my friend was craving anything from here and it gave me an opportunity to come try them out for the first time.Arrived about an hour before closing, we were the only customers dining in. The restaurant was so empty and the only thing loud was the music.My friend ordered a chicken salad, skewers, pita and fries. I ordered gyros, fries, a baklava and a soda. I was a bit disappointed that my fries weren't piping hot. Probably because they were sitting out for a long time. Despite being room temperature, it was surprisingly still crunchy. We both were so hungry that nothing was boxed up to go, and I really like their baklava for dessert.It won't stop me from coming back again as I could still have lunch here next time. Super convenient to our hotel, right in the middle of downtown, they have a private restroom, and the price is right.

The chicken gyro is a nice lighter alternative for summer. Chicken gyro meat has crispy edges. Chicken has strong notes of lemon and garlic. There is an option for spicy yogurt dip. The spicy yogurt dip is both refreshing and spicy at the same time. I am not a fan of cucumbers, but the spices in the spicy dip masked their flavors. Order for here or to go. Tables are available to eat inside. Inside is light and clean. A rewards program is available. Last time I checked, a $5 off $25 offer was available on their website if signing up to receive emails.

I had the pleasure of trying out this location when attending the celebration for the Phoenix Rising Football Club winning the championship, and loved that there was a tasty vegetarian option in cityscape! The service was incredible, and even had the person at the counter deliver my food to the table which I appreciated. The veggies were fresh and crisp, while the falafel was delightful on the side. I can definitely see myself returning especially if I'm in the area, and cityscape looks like a fun date night idea for my friends/family with a significant other.
