"My wife chose this place, from a host of nice eateries in and around Livermore town centre, which we have been visiting for a while, to invest in the local economy. We wanted to go some place we haven 't been before. So Nick the Greek 's it was. The place is well presented, a nice covered, off road, outside eating area, and a spacious clean, modern inside eating area, with comfortable seating. The Gyros (Yee-ros) were some of the best we 've had in California. The classic lamband beef one was excellent, and the chicken one was fantastic. We went for the combo which meant you could have fries and drink, or fries and salad or salad and a drink. The green salad was well dressed in olive oil, salt and pepper.Simple, but so tasty when you actually want to taste the lettuce. The Gyros themselves were well put together with a bit of salad and not one sign of the pitta being soaked through with too much runny sauce. It courageously stayed togetheruntil the last couple of mouthfuls. And talking of mouthfuls, make sure you come hungry . The portions are generously meaty and the REAL potato fries were top notch and well seasoned. My wife and I know the food was good, because we didn 'ttalk to each other for a few minutes and we didn 't realise we had stopped talking. To top the main off, we also ordered the beignets as a small dessert, which we shared. I know there are five in the picture I posted, but I couldn 't wait,and ate one before I realised I hadn 't taken a picture. So yes, you get six of them, freshly fried, light, smothered in flavoured honey syrup and topped with nuts.The smell was amazing. The taste; even better. The service was excellent, youorder at the counter, pay and then collect your drinks from the machine and the server will bring your meal to the table you chose to sit at. Good, friendly service. They actually offered to delay making our beignets until we 'd finished ourGyros. And then they brought them out, freshly made. Little touches like that mean a"

"I was truly truly impressed with the speed and service of the takeout here. The guy prepping takeout had so much hustle, and had my to go order ready in less time than the online ordering projected, even when I ordered two separate orders because I had forgotten something. It's an incredibly well run shop, with great front and back communication that allows them to work so fast. First, my tiramisu it was excellent. It was already prepped and ready for a last minute add to my order. My ceaser salad was perfectly fine. But the minestrone soup wasn't minestrone. It was a cabbage, zucchini, broth veggie soup that reminded me of the cabbage soup diet recipe. Although I slurped it all up because the broth was that good. The reality is, their food tastes no different than prepacked Italian food you buy in the grocery store frozen section which might explain how they had it ready so fast. My creamy tortellini with ham and mushrooms was yummy, and my meat sauce for my spaghetti was good and tasted like my favorite jarred sauce. But the meatballs were ultra salty and tasted like preservatives, as was my husband's chicken for his chicken parmesan. We couldn't say enough good things as we picked it up super quickly, and their combo was a great deal but once we ate everything, we decided we could make better Italian food ourselves at home. That said, if you are in a huge hurry or never cook yourself, then I do recommend these guys run a tight ship with great prices."
