WALNUT CREEK, CALIFORNIA – Quick tip if you’re looking for tasty Greek or Mediterranean food in the Lamorinda/Walnut Creek area that won’t break the bank: local chain Nick the Greek has you covered!

I love fancier places like La Med in Berkeley. But sometimes you just need something to Doordash, or as a cheaper plate that your kids will also enjoy.

I often find myself turning to Nick the Greek in situations like that.

Here’s a quick look inside the Walnut Creek location:

Their Gyro plates are excellent, and stand up well to re-heating. My kids enjoy their yellow, flavored rice. You can visit them at 1140 Locust St, Walnut Creek, CA 94596.
