Nick the Greek — Restaurant in Vallejo

I rarely give bad reviews but I was so excited to try this place and was beyond disappointed. When I first arrived there were 2 gentlemen outside and I asked them if the food here was good or should I go to Chipotle's. One immediately responded here. The 2nd man didn't say much and was kinda indecisive and took his time about answering. I should've taken that as a red flag. I was buying lunch for my friend and myself. I ordered 2 beef/lamb gyros, 2 order of fries, one soup & 2 soda's. We agreed we enjoyed the drinks the most. I've eaten many gyro's and this was the first one that I couldn't taste the lamb or the beef or even tell the difference between the two. Lots of onions & seasoning though. The pita bread was not the best either. When I asked my friend, who had never had a gyro before, if she liked it, trying to be nice she said, "Well, it isn't one of my favorite sandwiches." I was mostly just disappointed that I couldn't tell the difference between the lamb and the beef and that neither really tasted like lamb or beef." Oh, and they also put French fries in their gyro's. That was another first for me. I prefer meat and veggies and no fries in my gyro's. Our side order of fries were so bad neither of us could eat them. They were cold, and a cross between hard, chewy and old. Now, since I took them to go I expected them to get cold but not hard & chewy. They were so overpowering with the Oregano we couldn't taste the potato itself and never saw the green onions. We broke out a couple of bags of chips instead. They do give a large amount of fries but both of my orders of fries went into the trash can and the meat in my friends sandwich I gave to my dog. He didn't eat but 2 bites of it either. My friend enjoyed the soup and said she'd eat the rest for dinner. I wonder if she was just trying to make me feel good for my effort but I'll give it the benefit of the doubt. So, of my 33 dollars spent we enjoyed the soda and she liked the soup. It also took a long time to get my order. Other who came in and ordered after me got their orders first. Will I go there again? Nope. Next time I'm craving a gyro I'll drive to Athenian Grill in Suisun, where I can taste the lamb and beef, tell the difference between the 2 meats, get lots of it, and were they don't put French fries in the gyro. I gave this 2 stars. One was for the food and the other was because the...

We absolutely love Nick the Greek! My family and I eat here all the time, and the service is always amazing.

The staff here really goes above and beyond to make sure you get your food and are happy with your order. They're always willing to help if you have questions about the menu, and you can tell they actually care about doing a good job, not just rushing you through the line.

Since we come here regularly, the employees have gotten to know us. Sofia is especially friendly and caring - she remembers what we usually order and always greets us with genuine smiles.

Our community is so lucky to have a place like this. It's one of those special restaurants where you know you'll get good food and be treated well every single time. Places like Nick the Greek are what make our neighborhood feel special.

If you haven't been here yet, definitely give it a try. The food is great and the people who work here will take good care of you. We'll keep coming...

So, when this restaurant first opened , the food was AMAZING 🤩.

I stopped by last week for dinner, it was around 8 pm, I ordered the chicken skewers plate with the rice and salad side.

I honestly was bummed out, because the quality of the food was not up to the standards that I first tried when they first opened.

The chicken didn't have a lot of flavor and the rice was dry .

It was still good, don't get me wrong, but it wasn't as great as the first time I tried it. I did notice they have new cooks maybe ?

Not sure if it was that way because it was almost closing time, or it's just the new cooks ?

I will definitely still eat here, because the food is really good and the soup is amazing.

Just please keep an eye out on the chicken and please season more and the rice, please make sure it's not dry.

I'd definitely recommend stopping by here, maybe don't stop by before...
