Delicious food, I've been to many Nick the Greeks but this one takes the cake!! With quick friendly service and made the whole entire experience a great one!! They are super clean and comfortable to sit and enjoy your meal!!!!

Great place for lunch. Service is quick and delicious food. Everything on the menu is delicious. Got the chicken souvlaki plate. Lots of food so you definitely won't be hungry afterwards. Love the chicken skewers and the fries. The fries were very flavorful and they were pretty addicting to eat. Lots of dining space inside and outside especially perfect in the summer and enjoy the fresh air. Parking is limited on laurel but park in the back where there is plenty of parking

Good stop for a quick bite and if you're hungry! They closed at 10. These were pretty solid bowls ! We got the lamb and chicken souvlaki bowls which I wish I had more cucumber and tomato. Fries were a little dry but can't complain.

Was looking for something healthy and take out. Was more than pleasantly surprised at the items I selected. Greek Salad was plentiful. Fresh. Nice hunk of feta. Loads of cucumbers nicely sliced. Tomatoes were tasty. Nice red onions. Fresh lettuce that was crunchy and not soggy. I'd suggest a little less dressing however it was very tasty and very Greek. Ordered a side of falafels which (6) pieces. A top nicely shredded romaine. There was no sauce however they had great flavor. Glad I stopped in and would reco these items.

It's an easy casual restaurant, perfect for a quick lunch stop that's yummy & healthy. We ordered to salad bowls. I've had their plates at another location which I enjoyed more. We ordered Prasini & Gyro salads with chicken. They brought one of pork by mistake. We were fine with it but she refused to accept that she made a mistake... that said we really enjoyed the pork, so we were happy at the end. The grilled meats were well seasoned and tasty. The salads were fresh and good.

Not a place for vegans/vegetarians. We were walking by and found this interesting place. The ambiance is cool and service is quick and good. Ample amount of seatings and good place for large family and friends gathering.However we tried the only vegetarian option falafel bowl which was $13. It wasn't worth it. The salad was cold, rice was balnd and falafels were undercooked, overall the combination did not work well with each other. I had such high hopes as the bowl looked so colorful. Would not recommend if you wanna try the vegetarian/vegan option here.

Delicious Greek food and quick service!I'm convinced that Nick the Greek never misses: I've been to this location twice and the Redwood City location multiple times, and the food is always fast, the employees are nice, and the service is always speedy. Nick the Greek is a restaurant group that really cares about quality.I ordered the lamb/beef gyro plate today, which I've never had before. It was ready within minutes, and came with a smorgasbord of food: lamb/beef, rice or fries (I chose rice), tatziki, tomatoes, onions, pita bread, and a side Greek salad (lettuce, olives, onions, tomatoes, and feta). I also got a side order of falafel to share my brother.The lamb/beef was warm and juicy and the rice was warm and fluffy. The tomatoes and onions added a sweet flavor that cut through the saltiness of the meat, and the tatziki was cooling and zesty. The pita bread acted as a nice palette cleanser in between bites of everything else on the plate.The Greek side salad was refreshing. The tomatoes were juicy, the lettuce was crisp and wet, and the feta and olives on top had great contrasting flavors (creamy and salty). I would get less onions next time, though, because their flavor was a bit overpowering.I barely even got to the falafel on account of how full I was from everything else, but the one piece I had was awesome: a crispy exterior and a warm, soft interior.If you're in downtown San Mateo, come and get some great Greek food at Nick the Greek!

Pretty good. Looks like they have updated their menu. Fast-casual type of place and the food reflects that. Good for a quick lunch.

Skipped the overly priced food items at the Wine & Art Faire and stopped by Nick The Greek to grab a quick bite instead. This location has both indoor and outdoor dining with the huge garage door front. First timer getting the pork belly gyro and have got to say.. it's better than the other gyros I typically would get. Honestly didn't even know this was an option.. maybe it's new? Anywho, placed the order, service was fairly quick. This gyro was super stuffed that with each bite, everything was just falling out. Everything was super fresh and hot - that's the best! I didn't realize they didn't give any napkins with my Togo order so messy fingers! Parking can be a bit difficult to find as the Main Street is blocked off for outdoor dining nowadays.
