Nicky’s Grill and Yogurt Oasis

First time here after looking this place up on Unilocal.I must say, it’s got 4.5 stars for a reason. This is definitely a «respectable greasy spot» as someone else dubbed it.

Well I have been here on several occasions and I have had various items from them, like their chopped chicken salad, chicken pita, gyro dinner, southwest chicken salad, hamburgers and fries and everything they have prepared so far has been good with no complaints.

I love, love, love the turkey burger’s at Nicky’s, the turkey burger reminds me of when I was a teenager eating at the local fast food restaurant in my neighborhood. Umm, Umm good.

Jerk chicken salad is fantastic. Service is fast and friendly.

You always need a respectable greasy spot. This is it! Plus, the Greek salad with chicken (a healthy amount of chicken) and Caesar dressing hits the spot. You could almost share that salad.
For dessert, yogurt or ice cream!

Tops for any fast-​food fix. Mighty tasty gyros and all-​beef dog specials here, but if you want something quick and healthy, Nicky’s has still got you covered for about ten bucks, tax included. Try a formidable Chopped Salad, Southwest Salad or their Buffalo Chicken Salad using grilled (or breaded) chicken breast. (Skip the raw onions in your salad unless you like an insane amount of yellow onion.) Tzatziki sauce is fresh and on point. A «Gyro Platter“comes with 2 pitas, small Greek Salad and fries, & easily feeds 2 peeps on the cheap.(Cheese fries available) Nice that they’ll throw some juicy, roasted gyro on the grill for me to give it a slight sear and their grilled chicken pita never fails. I add a hint of tzatziki to the grilled chicken and it’s flavorful with a fraction of the gyro guilt.
Ice cream scoops, shakes and fat-​free yogurts are a delight. Try the banana pudding flavor! There’s usually one sugar-​free soft-​serve on tap. Menus available to phone-​in your order if you’re in a rush. A few tables if you care to dine-​in. Heads up, evenings. especially weekend nights, there’s groups of males often lingering.loudly. Keep alert.
Staff is super friendly… seriously, a kind crew… and the line moves quickly, but you have to repeat back your order/​double-​check your bag before you leave! Even check your dressing. When the tall, Greek guy or the funny dude in the ball cap is on register, that’s the bomb. Service is definitely elevated with their presence. Parking is tight, but quick turnover keeps vehicles moving. Now on BELLY!
As my original review mentioned, there’s usually a mangled pile of BMX bikes dropped by the door come summer; just hop over those and you’re golden.

They have the best Chopped Salad Ever!!! The food is delicious here from the Philly Cheese Steaks to the Blackened Catfish. Although when I have called my order in I have had to wait for an extended amount of time .But the food at Nicky’s is sooo worth it!

This place has always been really good. From the ice cream to sandwiches. Love the cheese fries too.
I would recommend nickys to anyone you can call ahead for pick up and they also have a website with the menu and daily specials on it. Big salads and great philly cheese steak and gyros.

As far as fast food goes, this place is top notch. They have the stuff you want, plus healthy alternatives. Salmon burgers, turkey burgers, chicken gyros. In addition to ice cream, they have gelato and several flavours of froyo.
The interior is nice too, for a fast food joint — all wood. They are fast, servings are good sized and hot. Plus they’re not a corporate outlet. Great business model.

This a small family owned fast food place with the friendliness and quality you hope for. The food variety is both expected and surprising.
The sandwiches taste fresh as they are made to order. The fries need work. You would hope that they were better to accompany the higher quality sandwiches.
Parking is almost always an issue. So I don’t recommend you go at the usual meal rush times.

I love this place! It’s great for fast food. Their burgers, pizza puffs, and fries are items that I usually come in for. Oh! Can’t forget about their grilled chicken; it’s perfectly seasoned. Guys are friendly and service is fast, so no complaints whatsoever on my behalf…

Im giving this place 5 stars not because my gyros were that amazing (they were decent) but because the rest of the peeps i went with said their food was amazing.
order 1: chicken gyros and fries– it was decent, nothing too spectacular
Order 2: bbq sandwich with fries– really good, bbq sauce was bit too sweet
Order 3: cheeseburger and fries– very good and very juicy! must try!!!
overall i had a good experience at Nicky’s the food was good, people were very friendly, and polite, oh and the place was pretty cosy!!!

Love this place… Been going to this establishment for years & the food is great, service is great. I give Nicky’s a 5star rating & recommend it for anyone who wants a good meal at reasonable prices!

lol racist ?? really never ! they will however take ur order first some times if ure a
black and every time I go into Nicky’s they take my order right away. And ive been so much they know exactly what I want ! Best turkey burgers and fries in Chicago ! U can even ask about me ! Black kid who always come to order turkey burgers. They even gave me free meals ! Lol @ Racist smh. You people ! Best Fast Food restaurant ive been to! h I could ve them 10 stars but ill settle with 5

My go too place since moving to the area. Everything I’ve had on the menu has been great so far.

I’ve been so bored with the choices in the Beverly area. This place is fast, cheap, and the food is amazing! I’ve been here 3 times this week and I still can’t get enough. The regular gyros and chicken gyros are to die for!

If you want gyros, dogs, burgers and salad. oh and I can’t forget ice cream, NGYO is the place to go. The food is typical Greek-​ish fast food, but the service is what makes this place stand out. They’re quick, efficient and my order has always been accurate. I’m not sure the brand of ice cream they use, but it is pretty good. Inside you’ll get a good mix of folks… lots of cops, and lots of people with a bad case of the munchies (wink wink nudge nudge know what I mean).

I’ve had my share of gyros in life from time to time. Not only are the chicken and lamb gyros extremely tasty here the service is consistent, friendly and fast.
** Be sure to ask for an extra tzatziki sauce on the side as the sauce is minimum on standard order– guess they allow the ‘meat’ to speak for itself– and it does!
Only criticism: It’s 9:36p.m. Saturday night — they close at 9 on weekends and 10p during weekdays. Would be nice to be able to have a tasty gyro or pita sandwich right now.

This is the best place on the South side!

Again I love this place! I’ve never had my order wrong. And the guys behind the counter are nice and friendly and they seem to recognize me every time I come there. It’s nice to see that they are slowly improving the inside of the restaurant. They have an iPad for a cash register. And now you can fill your own drinks at the soda fountain.
