11 Best Greek Restaurants in San Jose

“Wow! This spot is incredible. As someone who is very picky about ingredients, quality, presentation and service I was so pleased and amazed by the experience I had. From the fresh flowers on each table, to the beautiful artwork and of course, the incredible food I felt like I was on a mini Greece vacation! The Greek bowl was my favorite. So excited to come back!“

“Love Souvlaki Greek Skewers!!! I’ve been coming here since they originally opened! Great staff, family owned and run with pride!“

“The 365 is best described as a Greek heavy Mediterranean deli. Gyro and falafel are the mainstays, but there is more. Portions are good sized. The sauces are very tasty. The tzatziki is some of the best I’ve had.“

“This visit was great. I ordered my meal as a platter instead of a wrap. It was my mistake. When the nice lady who brought my food, she saw my facial expression, and immediately k ew I was not 'hapy', and she said she would bring me out a wrap.
I quickly received a replacement wrap. The beautiful thing is she said she did not want to throw away food and gave my original meal back to me.
I felt like a real human with compassion and feelings were working here. It is places like here that earn return visits and tips.
Thank you for a wonderful visit and the NEXT time I return I will correctly order my meal...“

“First time visit here & lemme tell you how it went. Place has plenty of space for at least 50 people, bathroom is for customers only. i ordred a chicken gyro the lady had a different kind of chicken gyro (salad) combo with the dragonfruit drink which was delish.. the garlic fries were super good only they were kinda small.. and a side of pita with hummis, anywho.. grand total was $40 & change.. i will definately ce here again..“

“I'd recommend the Chicken Gyro Bowl, which is a fairly well balanced mix of well spiced chicken and greek salad over basmati rice. While their gyros are tasty, I find them overly heavy, especially if they have the default fries mixed in.The line was pretty short vs. some of the other options at the food court. And it was ready pretty quickly.The selection of greek sodas is a nice treat, the lemon lime was refreshing.Of course this is a mall foodcourt at the end of the day. So I can't bring myself to give it five stars.“

“I've only ever ordered from Nick via Door Dash, so I can't testify to the service or the atmosphere. (Though I will say that NEVER has an order been wrong, so I guess that speaks to "Service" for which I will give it 5 stars!)

Anyway, I've tried a couple of things on the menu, but my favorite Greek food (since childhood actually) is the Gyro! And, boy, Nick's makes a great gyro.

I stick to the traditional beef/lamb combo, and it's SO good. I don't know if you like messy sandwiches and hamburgers, but I do. And a gyro is just a Greek sandwich/wrap, so is it any surprise that I like it messy? And Nick's gyro is messy! Yum. And huge. Double yum.

But I confess that I like falafel just as much and have discovered their falafel plate. OMG! This is my winner! I now order this EVERY TIME I order from Nick's.

It is WAY filling, so I wouldn't blame you if you can't finish it. I mean, we are talking about 5-7 falafel, fries, pita triangles, and a salad... accompanied with tsatziki (and my apologies because I KNOW I spelled that wrong!) and hummus.

If you find you can't finish it, no biggie. It makes a wonderful leftover lunch the next day.

I also love the frozen yogurt. Plain, it's a refreshing treat. (And you do get a lot.) But add on the honey and pieces of baklava, and it becomes a decadent dessert. And don't worry. This freezes (with or without the add-ons) so you can enjoy it anytime! Eat a little after dinner, then put the lid back on and pop it in the freezer for later.

A year or so ago, I tried their lemon soup (don't remember the menu name), and it was good. But that was when I was new to Nick's and sampling the menu to find my favorite.

And now that I'm a gyro or falafel girl, I don't even think about ordering anything else.

So try Nick's. I'm sure the restaurant is nice. But even if you have to Dash it, you'll enjoy good food.

About the pictures:
1. Side Greek salad (yummy!)
2. Falafel plate (so, so good!)
3. Frozen yogurt with baklava and honey

Vegetarian options: I'm not a vegetarian, but my absolute favorite is the falafel plate. Trust me. Even as a non-veg, I could LIVE on this plate. It's SO good!“

“Good. Good. Like, dangerously good. The kind of spot where you tell yourself you’ll just grab a quick gyro and suddenly you’re sitting there full of fries, sauce, and zero regrets. Everything hits the spot. Flavor, portion size, speed. It’s comfort food done right, and they keep it simple in the best way. Honestly, if you know, you know.“

“This place was great. I am not sure how authentic is was, when I visited Greece, I was unable to find gyro, but it was amazing.
The pita was fresh and the beef lamb meets were very freshly shaved off the meat rotisserie tree.
The food was very good. The service was very fast and attentive. Yes it was a fast food place but it was great.
I will be going back.“

“every one have to come and test the food.I highly recommended the Halal express Kebabs.customer service is great. I really like the food.“

“This was our first time and on Mother’s Day. We were seated right away on the patio (by choice) next to a heater. We ordered and our food came pretty quick and was delicious. I had the California Eggs Benedict and boy did the homemade hollandaise sauce blow my taste buds. It’s was so good.“
