Edit: We stayed loyal throughout the price increases, We stay loyal when we pass 40 restaurants to buy gyros, We will Now NEVER return. Just bought 4 Gyros, Learned that the Pita and the amount of meat is much smaller than before, when I had to save half for later. Pull meat out of the pita to close it. Now Its much smaller, they keep the meat in a side pan waiting for customers instead of cutting it off when its ordered, the meat is dark, cold and tastes of old oil... I have grow up in Rockford (45 Now) Recommending Uncle Nicks to Visitors and relatives... I've brought my kids there for 15 years. THATS ALL OVER NOW. To: Uncle Nick's owner and staff, We will only tolerate so much, I predict a closing within 2 years, if you keep treating customers like this... When I called about this order tonight, You didnt care, no offer to replace, just a "I'll let them know". DONT SUPPORT A BUSINESS WHO RAISES THE PRICES, GIVES YOU A SMALLER PORTION AND THE FOOD THAT HAS BEEN SETTING OUT, INSTEAD OF HONORING TRADITION AND QUALITY.

If you order it plus tomatoes you will get some extra crispness and acidity for no extra charge, although they might sacrifice a piece or two of meat. Either way this Gyro is unbelievable and must be tried. Yes the neighborhood is super sketchy, sometimes with panhandlers about; however UN has had a security squad on duty recently at nights and that's definitely appreciated. The restaurant is standing room only, one person served inside at a time, so this is definitely only for takeaway (I can't really recommend you eat it in your car..too messy). If you have never had a Gyro here don't hesitate. I have opinions on other foods they serve but at the end of the day that's all inessential. Just get the Gyros first and foremost. And they are still just...
