Nicholas is always always as easy yes for dinner. I mean, who can't win you over with endless amounts of fresh hot pita bread??This time around we had the Lamb Shwarma plate (YUM) and the spanikopita. The latter wasn't our favorite - it was dry, flavors were a bit off. Overall not our cup of tea. But the shwarma saved the day!! The other thing I will say is that this location feels like you have been transported to another place. On one hand, that's cool! On another, the ceiling was falling apart and a piece of poster board was stapled to the ceiling to hold it up... just know before you go.

The humus was lumpy and watery. Almost no taste. The majadra was pink in color. This should be a bright rust color. The taste was worse than the look. It was sour and I couldn't swallow it. I felt sick after putting this in my mouth. For those who don't know. This should be sweet and spicy with a nutty flavor. The onions had lumps of something stuck to them like they were old. The falafel was only ground chicken peas. No parsley. This Nicholas is the worst. Everytime I order delivery from them they send the worst quality food. I eat at the Nicholas in Gresham usually but the app selected this one. I didn't notice until it was too late. Writing this after eating a few things I feel like I am going to vomit. 30 mins after this review I was vomiting violently for about 15 mins.

I am visiting Portland for the first time in 5 years and after a perfect morning at the Art in the Pearl event, my friend and I drove over the river to eat lunch here. I mean, look at all this gorgeous and delicious food?! I have been dreaming of that Big Bread for YEARS!

First of all, the pita bread with the dip was amazing. We almost stuffed ourselves but had to contain ourselves before our actual meal came out The fries are good but the harrisa sauce adds more flavor so yes definitely great too My partner ordered the lamb gyro wrap and I got the zaatar salmon kabob salad. I would say one of the best grilled salmons I've ever had. It was well cooked and a tad crispy but just how I like it- you can also taste all the flavors in this one for sure!! Service is great and they also have outdoor seating if you like to have a nice lunch or dinner. We usually order our orders to go but sitting down and enjoying the evening with a special someone always makes food tastier. Thank you!!

Check out the best tzatziki I have ever had in my life. Gonna probably spend about 20$ a plate but it comes with a sizeable pita and dip. The mezza falafel was super good and I barely made a dent in it.

The food here is absolutely delicious. My go to is the Beef Kafta Kabab plate, which comes on a bed of rice and pita bread. The dessert and drinks are very flavorful. I reallyEnjoyed the fresh mango drink. I have been eating here since 2006. Excellent service as well. My rating is a 10/10. Check 'em out!

When I'm craving Mediterranean food, Nicholas constantly delivers! My friends and I visited recently before going to a show downtown. We loved the gold tiled walls, low ceiling, red plastic flowers, and intimate feeling. Before your meal, your server will bring you freshly baked, warm and fluffy naan with an olive oil and zaatar dipping sauce. So yummy! I decided to order the Meat Mezza which is what I usually order since it comes with a variety of items from the menu...Hummus, tzatziki, falafel, tabouli, a mini chicken pizza. and a beef kafta kabob. So many magnificent flavors! We also ordered a side of smoky baba ghanoush to dip our naan in after we finished the olive oil dip. Our waitress was kind enough to bring us more naan upon request. We love Nicholas!

I've been coming to this yummy middle eastern restaurant for years and it never fails. My favorite dish to order is usually the lamb or chicken shawarma. This time I came with a friend who has never been and she fell in love with the food! We love the huge naan bread that comes before the food. Honestly even if the serves were bad which it wasn't the food is just that good it gets a 5/5 for me every time. The flavors are very similar to south Asian cuisine and I just love it. Will always continue to come here. Delicious food!

Used to be a go-to every week.Used to be portions that would stuff your belly.Used to be cheaper than a food truck.Now outrageously expensive. $100 lunch for two?Now petite portions that made you say what?Parking has always been horrible at the original Grand location and worse now on Broadway.This was never a friendly smiley place but you looked past it for the value. Last time our food was thrown together in an unappetizing presentation and it took 40 minutes too long.Dining area needs a deep clean.

Apple Map erroneously marked this restaurant as "permanently close". We had dinner there tonight and the food and service were as good as ever. This Broadway location one never disappoints. Glad we decided to swing by to confirm and not blindly trust the Apple Map on my phone.
