February 20, 2025 // Franchising.com // SAN JOSE, Calif. - Nick the Greek has proudly opened in Modesto, California. The newest restaurant is owned and operated by experienced franchisee Jerry Ajlouny along with Habib Hadj Sahraoui.

“My business partner, Habib and I first crossed paths six years ago at Nick the Greek, and from that moment, we set our sights on owning a location of our own,” said Ajlouny. “Today, we’re honored to bring the bold, authentic flavors of Greece to our community, pairing them with outstanding service and a seamless, quality-driven dining experience.”

Established in 2014 by cousins Big Nick, Little Nick and Baby Nick Tsigaris – all named after their grandfather per Greek tradition – Nick the Greek satisfies the desire for healthy, flavorful and authentic Greek cuisine in a fast casual environment without compromising quality. Drawing from two generations of restaurant entrepreneurship and countless visits to Greece, the street food-inspired menu boasts flavorful gyro meats cooked in-house on a traditional vertical rotisserie, charbroiled souvlaki skewers, zesty sauces, fresh vegetables and authentic Greek treats including baklava and loukoumades. In meeting the high demand for Greek street food, Nick the Greek has carved out a niche for itself in the ultra-competitive fast casual space.

Nick the Greek’s Modesto restaurant is located at 3900 Pelandale Ave, #430 and can be reached by telephone at (209) 661-7050. The restaurant is open daily from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
