Ana MartínezNovember 18, 2013is the Greek heaven in the USA. Niko Niko has one of the best gyro that a hungry person can have. They are big! The prices are really good, and the staff is very sweet. This is the best bet in HoustonUpvote13Downvote
SAADMay 4, 2018I had the combo meat gyro plate with greek salad! Loved the salad 👌🏼 but ask the kitchen to have your feta cheese cut into small pieces. P.S the plate is more than enough to share! 🙌🏼

Trae HudsonMay 13, 2016When in Rome...Well this is Greek food but do what the Greek do and choose one of their many fantastic selections. I prefer the sampler plate so you don't miss out on anything they have to offer.

Clifton MSeptember 19, 2015Roasted chicken w/ potatoes and Greek salad. The best part: dessert; Athenian mud pie tonight. Always busy. Expanded Greek wine selection. Have a glass waiting for order to go.

Juan Antonio SanchezJuly 5, 2015Hummus, didn't look or taste like hummus. Gyro was great! Honey balls as desert, freshly made, good also. Fast service, friendly staff.Upvote1Downvote
Christy LandesSeptember 13, 2014Get there early but def best Greek food in town. Fresh, not greasy. We get Greek salad and gyros usually but they have stuffed cabbage and peppers and a great dessert selection.Upvote2Downvote
Social News NetworkNovember 25, 2013Niko Niko's is a great Greek restaurant in Houston. There's something for everyone. It may, however, not be the best place for elders or people with trouble walking, since the line tends to be long.UpvoteDownvote
Hannah SwiggardMarch 15, 2013Outdoor patio perfect for sunny days. Restaurant is super packed but they're pretty quick at taking your order and getting food out. I got the chicken and beef kabob plate and it was delicious.Upvote4Downvote
Anna HavardDecember 28, 2014I really like the food, but I honestly feel like this place is a bit "over-hyped" and overpriced. Overall, it's a good place to eat, the gyros are yummy and they serve "mythos" beer, which is nice!Upvote1Downvote
Gyros are unbelievable!! Daily specials are always good and lots of variety on the menu!! Save room for desert too!UpvoteDownvote
Excellent gyros, but leave some room for dessert, esp. kataifi and loukoumades. Ask for freshly baked loukoumades, if possible; they are sinfully delicious!UpvoteDownvote
CultureMap HoustonJuly 14, 2011The plates are huge and the side dishes are also very generous. The souvlaki and kebabs are some of the popular dishes. The fries are a must, and the lentil soup is quite good, too.Upvote11Downvote
Mallorie BraunzAugust 7, 2015Whenever I'm craving a burger I come here. The Athenian mushroom burger is out of this world! The potatoes are awesome as well!UpvoteDownvote
Brian BartlingSeptember 25, 2014I've been coming here for 20+ years, and have never been disappointed. Gyros are the best anywhere...and they also have an incredible Philly sandwich.UpvoteDownvote

Clarissa CJanuary 13, 2020Gyro was very tasty. Large portion of fries. Save room for dessert!
UpvoteDownvote- Clifton MMarch 22, 2015Roasted chicken is awesome. Greek wine is actually ok. Long lines; not enough parking even after expanding several times over the years. Skip the line, order to go; another w/in easy walking distance.UpvoteDownvote

ELS Language CentersMay 25, 2012Great people watching on a fun outdoor patio, but it’s small and usually crowded so you might try going in the early afternoon. They serve generous portions, so share! Meals $10 to $20.UpvoteDownvote- Houston PressMay 31, 20122011 Best of Houston Winner: Best Falafel.

Che' SmithSeptember 16, 2010Been coming here for over 13 years. I miss the smaller ambience and personal service by Dimitri himself, but still hands down the best gyros I've ever had. Congrats on the new Market Square location!Upvote2Downvote

Dona BeeOctober 12, 2012I have been coming here since I was 7 and it was a tiny place that was 17 years ago. This place is still just as amazing!Upvote2Downvote
Bruce OMarch 13, 2012I'm usually suspect of veggie lasagne. It's often too watery... like the veggies are a soup. This, tried at the suggestion of one of the cooks, was awesome.UpvoteDownvote- Samah AlsammahiMarch 10, 2018Their beef and lamb gyros were amazing! Along with the thief philly cheese steak sandwich.UpvoteDownvote
- A simply outstanding Greek restaurant. If the line is long, don't sweat it - It moves quickly.UpvoteDownvote
- Instead of having greasy french fries, order oven baked potatoes. They are delicious, made Greek-style, with wonderful lemony taste.UpvoteDownvote
