Review for the restaurant at 2520 Montrose

Great flavor but the portions are getting smaller 2/8/2009

Love the gyro plate and their used to be enough to have leftovers for lunch the next day. But the servings have shrunk so the 'value' part of the equation has caused a star to be lost. Still some of the best greek food in the city. more

I love this place... 12/18/2008

If you haven't eaten here, you are missing out! I have never had a bad meal at Niko Niko's! Also a great place to people watch... Cons: parking more

Overpriced & Overrated 10/6/2008

My husband and I ate regularly (1 x week for 2 years) at Niko Niko's until recently when the quality of food s decreased and the prices increased. more

Still the best 8/27/2008

I have been going to Niko Niko's for as long as I can remember. It has been the best in town for a long time, their spanakopita and gyros are untouchable... The best in town, hands down. Pros: Best Greek in town Cons: Can be busy at times, well worth the wait more

Lots of sizzle but no steak. 8/14/2008

First and last time customer. I was led here by all the great reviews this restaurant has received. I tried the gyro with french fries. Bad choice. I had to throw away most of it because it was awful. The meat was dry and the fries were soggy and tasted like burnt oil. I added some of the sauce that came with the gyro to give it some flavor, but it was in vain. I felt sick for two days after eating this food. I guess some of the other plates might be good, but I'll never know because I don't plan to return. I have a feeling the owner writes or pays people to write some of the great reviews about the gyros to fool us into coming to this restaurant. Save your $ and dine elsewhere. Peace out! Pros: No Pros Cons: Gyros and Fries are not good. more

Best Gyro 8/10/2008

Great food, best gyro in Houston! Love the outdoor seating; parking has improved but worth the hassle! Pros: food, atmosphere Cons: parking more

Huge plates, great location 7/14/2008

Thankfully, they expanded the parking lot, cutting down on the walk from your vehicle to the restaurant. The plates here are huge, a couple could easily split one. The gyros are awesome and authentic. Great neighborhood institution in Montrose. Pros: food more

Three cheers for Niko Nikos! 6/21/2008

Niko Niko's is the place I bring visitors, where I go for comfort food, and has my favorite patio. The service is always friendly and I enjoy the casual atmosphere. Their salads are amazing, as is their calamari with feta cheese. Three cheers for Niko Nikos! more

decent but over-priced Greek fare 6/7/2008

The salads are good, but you pay through the nose. You can finally park here, which is charming. My wife is nuts about this place. My wife also eats Lucky Charms for dinner sometimes. I guess you'll have to make up your own mind regarding whom to believe. more

OVERPRICE PLASTIC WEAR 2/19/2008

I went to Niko Niko?s last night and spent $15 on rolled cabbage. I paid $15 for ground beef mixed with rice rolled in a cabbage. Once again, I paid $15 for a mixture of GROUND BEEF ANS RICE. I should add that I ate it on plastic wear!!! Pros: Montrose Area Cons: Expensive, Expensive, The most expensive fast food more

Caution: May be arrested while dining here! 2/15/2008

My husband is from Greece, and mentioned to the manager that one of their dishes is not authentic since it was made with beef and not lamb, and the manager literally tells him that if he wants that entree with lamb then he needs to go back to Greece!! How rude is that?!?!?! After that comment he said he would never eat here again because of the rude service and lack of authenticity and the manager tells him that if he doesn't leave then she will call the cops. I swear, he never said a harsh word to her and she threatened to have him arrested. Haha. Needless to say we won't be going back. more

Great customer service and food! 1/31/2008

Niko Niko's is a great joint. Great food and great service. I've been in many times and I've never left disappointed. The portions are big here and although prices recently went up about 5%, it is still definitely worth it. The gyro meat is tender, moist, and has the perfect hint of spices. Other plates such as the cheese-steaks, lamb kebob, and chicken salads are amazing as well. Pros: Food, service, quality Cons: 1 location more

Awesome gyros!! 12/27/2007

Amazing greek salad.. lots of feta. Gyro sandwich is delicious and not greasy. They also have really good french fries and baklava. Sometimes it can be busy with long lines but it's well worth it. They added more seating room and parking, and despite the large crowds that can sometimes roll in around 6 pm, they are very nice and the service is good. This place is my favorite place to eat in Houston, hands-down! Pros: Great food and service at a reasonable price Cons: Busy and crowded at times more

A Greek and American Delight 11/20/2007

Improved parking! Compared to prior customer's postings, Niko Niko's has improved their parking situation. The new outdoor seating is really nice, and on a day like ours it made for a very enjoyable outdoor meal for the lunch club. Portions were very generous and this was an overall ""good"" value. Perhaps even, a great value. The kitchen pushes out quality food and fast with excellent technical skill. Very consistent throughout our lunch club's meals. This is a very casual place and the plates and utensils match the (cheap food) theme with all disposable plastic wares (seemingly from Sam's Club). The disposable wares (are they earth friendly?) seemed out of place while enjoying the new outdoor patio. more

Nikos?????? 11/8/2007

Niko's on Montrose was a terrible experience with long line, very crowded, very noisy, no service, average-bland food, hard to find a place to sit...wouldn't come back here. Cons: Food, long lines, very crowded more

food... is worth all the parking lot hassles! 9/10/2007

Great food! Don't be deterred by the long lines because they're suprisingly fast. Love the gyros, lemon potatoes and hands down, one of the best (and biggest serving size) pork chops around town. The fries have changed a bit but all the same, it's still satisfying. Carpool with your friends during dinner/lunch or else, one of you will be stuck circling the parking lot/block for a parking spot!! Pros: food, casual setting, portion size Cons: parking!!.. don't go in the midst of lunch because the line will be out the door! more
