Zoukis Mediterrean

Good service. The waiter was very friendly. Man, if you look at the prices first and then decide from there, you won’t spend quite as much. They had some «bomb» chicken salad. It was fantastic. The chicken was a bit dry, but when it’s a decent price for a large plate of salad and a lot of chicken I’m not one to complain.

Delicious food!!! Very cute and clean atmosphere, always forget it’s there until I smell the food in the shopping plaza. Prices were reasonable. Staff was friendly and very helpful for our first visit.

Best food in Nacogdoches! If you like Mediterranean food, this is the place. Unless you really like a lot of garlic, you need to ask them to cut back on the garlic sauce on your food. I can’t believe there is a restaurant this nice in Nacogdoches!

Was in Nac, and felt like treating myself again and Dennis walked up, super friendly, very helpful, assisted me in my order. I kept it simple and got two classic gryos. Also got a chicken Shawarma sandwich to split with the wife later.
In my earlier review I mentioned that the price was on the high side, but after tasting this food, being greeting by friendly faces, sitting in a cool, clean, and trendy restaurant … the price is actually surprisingly low considering.
Feta Fries!!! To die for!
Great for dates.
Great for family.
Great for business meetings.
Friendly staff that has fun while they serve.
And of course, fantastic Mediterranean style food you can’t get anywhere else.
They’re across the street from the Kroger in Nac.

I had dinner there last week. The food was wonderful and the staff friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was inviting, lighting adequate, music was not intrusive so we were able to have conversation without difficulty. There were people dining outside who seemed to be having an enjoyable time. There were families with children who were also having a fun time. The restaurant was clean. The restroom was clean. The lamb was really good as was the chicken. The «everything» appetizer was a nice bit of everything. I will be back!

This place is amazing! It’s not every day that Nacogdoches sees a truly great place to try food from other cultures, but Zouki’s finally brought us Mediterranean cuisine without driving several hours away! You can tell that the owner really cares about the quality of the food. The variety on the menu is wonderful, and it has helpful descriptions for each dish for those of us who aren’t familiar with Mediterranean terms. The vegetarian options make Zouki’s one of my new favorites, and even my ultra-​picky meat loving fiancé was impressed with his meal. I have such high hopes for the future of this restaurant!

Let me start by saying food is 5 star, for sure. I have eaten here about a dozen times, and most of the time, it’s been great. Only a few mess ups on customer service. This last mess up, really bothered me.
Now, because I have been there many times, I know, if I get an appetizer, then my daughter and I can share the Kabobs. We always get mix, one steak, and one chicken. It’s generally the perfect amount of food. We both get full, and sometimes, even have a little left over.
This last time, the young man misunderstood, and brought a full dish of steak, and chicken Kabobs. Pointed the mistake out to him, and all I got back was a «Oh, sorry about that», no offer to fix, nothing. I assumed after the Manger learned of this, they would have gave me one for free, or at least a discount on the second. Or at a minimum, free appetizer. None occurred, most likely because the young man, probably didn’t tell the manager of his mistake.
Then we also made the mistake of letting him, take our food to box up, instead of us doing it ourselves… I’m about 90% sure, not all of our left overs made it into the box, 100% sure the extra garlic sauce (which is amazing) didn’t.
This experience won’t stop me from going back, but a little customer service training would be nice. I could have easily refused the 2^nd dish, they would have been out that cost completely. I’m too nice sometimes.

Holy cow this was so amazing! The pita bread and olive oil starter had a great little kick to it! We were not excited about the house salad as the dressing was simultaneously bland and overly peppery. Then, after one bite of the chicken shawarma and and lamb shawarma, respectively, and the salad was immediately forgotten. To. Die. For. Ate the whole thing without even considering the possibility of stopping when full. Amazing! I wish this place wasn’t 3 hours away from our home!

I was so happy to find this restraunt in Nac. but so disappointed in the in the food. Lack of knowledge of wait staff, poor quality ingredients and food not executed properly are the reasons for the 1 star rating!

Overall the food was wonderful. The wait staff was great. I was kind of disappointed when I had to ask the waitress if we could have napkins and forks. I thought there would be silver wear at the table. We got desert to go because we were so full from the food. I opened up the box and the tiramisu was literally 3 bites. I’m very disappointed with the desert but it’s good

Wow, what a fantastic dining experience! Outstanding food with great service! Shared the Aoe’s appetiser tray and Spartan meal for 4 with another couple and the entire meal was excellent. Our waitress was charming, had excellent recommendations and served us like we were her only table. We love Mediterranean Food and we will be eating here at least once a week!

So happy to have a place with Greek food in the area. We tried classic Gyro and Chicken Shawarma, both were tasty but shawarma was better. We love the food here and will definitely come back.

Date night? Allow me to suggest Zoukis Mediterranean. What a pleasant surprise when we walked in off the North St. parking lot and into this smart new restaurant. The décor is fresh and upscale, but still warm and inviting. We have eaten here three times now, a dinner with daughter and her fiancée, lunch with my wife, and a celebration dinner with our daughter and her fiancée’s family. We were greeted and seated promptly each time. Though some of the staff is young (as expected with university-​area restaurants), the owner or manager was there each time to help keep service on track and ensure we had a pleasant experience.
The Food — Wow.
I am typically not a tabouli fan, but Zoukis’ was loaded with fresh parsley, and had just the right amount of mint to complement without overpowering the dish. The dolmas were tender and flavorful and the family recipe hummus was nicely seasoned.
The Chicken Shwarma and Chicken Kabobs were delicious, but the standout was the lamb Gourmet Mediterranean Pita Pockets. The lamb was the most flavorful I have had anywhere. There was generous amount of lamb in each pocket with Greek Salad and a very tasty garlic sauce. I was full after two pockets, but ate the third anyway because it was so good.
Zoukis has a bring your own wine policy, and serves for a very reasonable $ 1 per person corkage fee. We brought Cabernet Sauvignon to enjoy with the lamb, but a Merlot or Pinot Noir would have gone nicely as well.
Nice atmosphere, good service and great food with reasonable prices. Take advantage of the bring your own wine and enjoy date night at this great new venue.

Visiting from Houston and Los Angeles. Amazing food. Great appetizers. Incredibly priced compared to what we pay in LA. So so good. Our waitress from Houston new to Nach was SUPER friendly and funny! Décor is on point. What a great Unilocal find!

The restaurant had a very neat atmosphere, different from the typical restaurants in town. The staff was attentive, and the restaurant was very clean. The pita bread and olive oil with spices that they brought before the meal was warm and fresh. My steak and lamb pita pockets were delicious. The meat was cooked to perfection. We will definitely be back soon!

The food was great and the staff was awesome as well! The fresh pita bread is delicious. I’ve been twice and got two different items each time and haven’t been disappointed yet! I am rooting for this place it has a great atmosphere and Nacogdoches could really use something different like this!

This place is delicious! I can’t say enough about it. I would recommend the chicken kabobs, and my wife loves the shawarma. Just know that it’s on the more expensive end for Nacogdoches (about $ 12 a plate), but well worth it.

New restaurant, with exceptional quality food. I’m back in town for a visit to friends, and we came out here for dinner for the first time. The lamb platter was good, the flavors were nice, not extraordinary. Steak kabobs however were out of this world. They were huge. Easily can feed two people. Cooked to order, with some of the best flavor I’ve ever had on a steak kabob. I would prefer their steak kabobs over most franchise steakhouse. The hummus was incredible, service was good.
Being close to campus, I was afraid it was going to be a college joint. I was pleasantly surprised, It is definitely upscale for Nacogdoches. Environment is very pleasant, we were able to have great conversation with great food. The only thing I regret is not bringing some wine, and ordering the desert.
I highly recommend it!

If you are looking for great fresh Greek food, easy location and parking, wonderful service at a fair price with a sleek contemporary atmosphere try Nacogdoches’ newest eatery. It is so nice to have a unique menu that is affordable.

The spanakopitas and three bean medley are especially good! Also really liked the Nights of Lebanon desert!
