Nicks Philadelphia Cheese Steaks & Gyros

Nice staff, quick service, fantastic cheesesteaks. I got a chicken cheesesteak and you can really tell they use actual chicken breasts, not the cheap steakum style meat. Definitely swing by here for lunch

Firstly, Nick’s is the only place for a cheesesteak. Bread is soft. The meat moist and excellently chopped and plenty of cheese. Today, for lunch, I had their gyro. Given the authentic feel of the place, I had high hopes. (I’m doing a head to head competition of gyros with Sunrise Diner.) the pita was soft, hot, and had the slightly greasy goodness. The portion was good. Sometimes Americans go for overboard with the amount of gyro meat they add. There was enough sauce to cover each bite. Not too much lettuce. Think there was one or two tomato slices. Wanted a few more. All and all: much like Nicks, quick, hot, and good. The workers are lovely too. Only hang up, when I asked for fries on my gyro, like traditional style, the gentleman who took the order said, “uh, we don’t really do that here.” Seems he knew what I was talking about, but didn’t offer to do it for a small upcharge. I didn’t ask, as this is a head to head with Sunrise. Let’s see tomorrow what they say when I ask for fries on it. Smashed it!

Cheesesteak meat was a little bland. Average middle of the road cheesesteak. Would probably try somewhere else next time no
