Editorial Review for Big Nick's Burger and Pizza Joint – by Sasha Emmons
The Scene
A dive that's been featured on the "Late Show," Big Nick's lines its walls with photos of the famous and not-so-famous people who have eaten here. Signs describing the various dishes are hung every which way, and the waitstaff criss-cross constantly between the diner's two rooms.
The Food
It might be easier to decide what you're in the mood for, rather than trying to slog through the massive 14-page menu. Burgers, pizza, pasta, steaks, calzones, salads, chili, souvlaki, shakes, sandwiches, smoothies, desserts--there's not much you won't find here. Although the dingy atmosphere might suggest otherwise, the grub is surprisingly fresh and well-prepared--especially considering that most items are less than $8. Salads are huge and crisp, and burgers, including the one-pound Sumo burger, are made from 100-percent Angus steer. It's also known for pizza and Greek dishes (owner Nick was raised in Athens). Breakfast is served 24 hours a day.

I've been here a few times and I must say: DELICIOUS. The food is always fresh tasting [no matter what time] and it always leaves you wanting more...maybe because there is sO much to choose from!! It's a quiet spot which is great for meeting with friends and grabbing a [good] bite. They have EVERYTHING on this menu. 24 hr breakfast...all types of pizza and sandwiches...salads...seriously, everything lol. Best part is that its all Mm-mM GOOD!
Pros: delicious food at great price
Cons: location is very small [tight seating]

it is what it is... greasy greek diner taken to an american level. burgers are juicy, reasonable prices. pizza by the slice, big, foldable, hot. this is better than Nikos, which is the sister restaurant. love that it is open 23 hours a day. great place when everything else is closed.
