Niko’s Bar & Gyros

Was it possible to give this place a zero and a avoid thia place like the plague i would. I ordered a medium rare burger, the first attempt it was well done, they took it back brought another again well done, i literally smashed it up trying to find a drop of pink in it and the wasnt so i took it insode and complained again at wh9ch they broughr me a third burger which waa done medium well. At that point the manager asked did i want something else. No i dont want your crap u cant cook i want to finish my wine and leave. So my girlfriend and i are sitting there while she finishes her food and i am complaining loud enough that everyone can hear that the place at three attempt cant make a medium rare sandwich, then the manager come out gets in my face and tells me i have to leave, he is in my face so i jump up and he tries to get me to swing on him at which point i say that is definetly not what u want asshole, i turn around to grab my bottle of wine and leave and he starts talking more crap, pissed i smash the bottle on the ground rather than the guys jaw with it. now after attempting to start a physical altercation with me the dick calls the cops cause instead of breaking his jaw i busted the bottle on the ground, well the cops show up at my door i tell them waht happened they apologized for the situation and said dont go back. Believe i and no one i kbow will ever step foot in the piece of shit establishment ever

That’s gyros I ever had. The beef and lamb is perfect with the perfect Suzuki garlic sauce. If you like Gyros this is the place

Been here half a dozen times now and have never been disappointed. One of the best craft beer selections around and they support the local brewers ($ 3 a pint for Ohio drafts on Sunday) I can’t speak for the entire menu cause I keep ordering the spicy chicken gyro every time. Its friggin delicious and sweat on your brow spicy.
The only drawback is its a little too cozy. They could use a little more elbow room.

The best bar food around! Service is consistently above and beyond. Even if you have to wait a bit they make sure you’re comfortable and get a drink in your hand ASAP. Try the different hummus dips! Cilantro-​jalapeño is my favorite. Best hot mess burger ever and the gyros are the best you’ll find in Ohio. Food is always, I mean ALWAYS fresh. The kitchen staff know what they’re doing. And of course the drink menu never disappoints.

I love this little bar/​restaurant. It has the best gyros hands down in Cleveland. They have great seafood specials at different times of the year. The wait staff goes way out of their way to accommodate you and the owner is very nice.

Food is great! Awesome selection of microbrews! The staff is friendly and efficient.

Located in a mini strip-​mall this fast casual restaurant provides friendly and fast service in a fun atmosphere. Their main feature is gyros. They have the traditional lamb gyro, but several other options. I chose the Spicy Chicken Gyro. Like the non-​spicy version it had lettuce, tomato and chicken, but the chicken was coated with Cajun seasoning and the pita bread was drizzled with Sriracha. There was definitely a lot of heat from the Sriracha and the Cajun seasoning was excellent. The portion was very good too and the fries were tasty. If you’re ever in the area this is a great place for a fast and tasty lunch.

We’ve been to Nikos several times! Always fresh and reasonable! The Greek Salad with Chicken or Lamb and Beef, as well as the traditional gyros never disappoint! Good beer selection, as well!

Excellent gyros! Some of the best I’ve had anywhere. Super garlicky and salty, but that’s expected. Did I mention garlic? You’re gonna be swimming in it afterward.
Smallish, neighborhood bar feel. Super friendly servers/​barkeeps. Very attentive.
Definitely recommend.

Ordered chicken clam bake… nothing like getting raw chicken served. not impressed and will. never go. back

Went for the clambake and gyro food was good but I saw was terrible. This lady came in for a drink and sat at the table next to us. She asked the owner what beers he had on tap and he snapped at her that it was listed on the board in the middle of the bar which could not be seen by her she ordered a beer She let it go sat there for a while then decided to take a to go order instead of sitting there by herself. He came over and put a sign on her table while she was still sitting there and she said I will be going soon after I finished my beer. I looked over at her and she had tears in her eyes. I asked if she was ok and she said her mom just died and she just wanted to get out and have a drink and maybe some food but the owner was so rude she felt like leaving. I am very disappointed that the owner treat her or anyone like that. I am not sure we will be back. Sorry Niko it doesn’t cost anything to be kind to some one you never know what someone is going through.

Great place can’t remember the last time I had so much fun staff are friendly and welcoming food is delicious menu is affordable very clean environment will be going here more often with my family and friends.

I live pretty close to Niko’s, and its my first stop for when I want to watch a UFC/​boxing match. Aside from the hard-​ass benches that wrap around the place, this is a good sports bar with an outside patio and a good selection of booze. The gyros are very fresh, large, and come with an order of fries. It’s a good amount of food and I usually save half for later. Lots of variety on the gyro menu, but I get the traditional old faithful gyro every time and have never been disappointed.
Nice patio, nice wait staff, good food, and shows UFC so I don’t have to go to BW3. I’m in.

It was mine and my wifes first time here. While the service was great, it had a couple… oddities to it.
First, there was a creepy guy on the patio smoking and trying to hit on the waitresses. While that doesnt affect the service, it didnt help enhance it. The girls were clearly a little freaked and went in fairly quickly.
Secondly, the music was a bit loud. I felt like i was shouting slightly just to hold a conversation with my wife. Not to mention. They had cursing In the songs while kids were out on the patio.
The food. It was good, however didn’t really fill us at all. My wife ordered the Niko’s original, which is pictured below. The amount you get for 8.50 a gyro is awesome. But nevertheless didnt get the job done.
All in all, an okay at best experience.

definitely 4.5 to 5 stars.
i can’t remember the last time i’ve had food like this in a «bar.» Danielle and i had a late lunch at Nikos because I wanted some good hummus. since we’ve had their hummus «to go» before we decided to stop in for lunch.
Ohio brewed drafts were $ 3 on Sundays so I ordered a Dortmunder Gold and later a Fat Head’s Spookytooth (i can’t believe it’s out already). i drank both so fast i had the faintest trace of a buzz.
For food, we shared some hummus as an appetizer. There was so much that by the time our lunches came we were already full but we tried anyway. Danielle had a regular gyro and fries and i had the Niko’s Original — a gyro w/​smoked pork. I don’t have the words to tell you how great it was. Just delicious. the pork alone tasted so good. Danielle and i frequent many BBQ joints and none, so far, has had pork that tasted as good as this. the french fries, while frozen — yes, frozen (big deal) — were fried perfectly w/​a nice seasoning. I wanted to eat them all but had to stop myself and ask for a to go container before i burst.
there’s no doubt i’ll be back. seriously the best meal i’ve had in a long time.
the only negatives i would say are that the tzatziki sauce lacked a whole lot of cucumber flavor — at least as far as i could tell. also, people in the bar were talking inappropriately (i feel) around kids sitting at nearby tables. though, i personally never understand bringing kids into a bar to begin with. that said, they were so unimportant i’d only take away a half star from my review.
loved it.

Best gyro I ever had went in last night while visiting family had a drink and ordered wings and gyros the best service was great bartender was a female very good thanks niko coming back today before heading back to Boston

I came here for dinner based on a great recommendation from my dad. I was very excited about a great gyro place, but to my disappointment they would not accommodate to my fish allergy, so the only thing I could eat was the salad, hummus, and french fries. My boyfriend and I split the buffalo hummus which was great! He got the lamb gyro which he said was delicious. I got the Greek salad, it was good. I wouldn’t go back just because I can’t order much from the menu.

Worst gyro I have ever had
Bar looks good with lots of TV and they have nice little patio I can hang out there but not the gyro and the only reason why I went there was gyro which was not good so here is my 1star review
Will try one more time and will update

Stopped in for lunch today. Smallish, but big enough. I probably wouldn’t walk in during peak hours, but I was here early. Gyro was great and the beer list decent; fries were pretty good, too. Service was friendly from both the bartender and what I think was the owner. Will be back… soon.

I have been missing Niko’s since it closed up in Lakewood. I am so happy Niko has decided to bring his Greek goodness to North Royalton!
We started off with a trio of hummus dips — each was fantastic but the spicy feta hummus was the best! The dips come with fresh pita, cucumbers, and carrots. Perfect for sharing.
All three of us absolutely loved our meals — the mini gyro combo, the vegetarian gyro, and the spicy chicken gyro. All of the meals came with fries too. The gyros were all under $ 10 and we all needed to-​go boxes.
The atmosphere was friendly and laid back — perfect place to hang out and watch some tv or play keno. The patio out front is nice too!
They also had a large variety of craft beers and beers on special too.
I can’t wait to go back :)
