By Kaydin Wright, BEAT reporter
BRUNSWICK, OH- Big flavor has come to town with the grand opening of Niko’s Gyros To Go Brunswick on Monday, February 9th.
Anthony and Gena Saied, owners of Niko’s Brunswick, have worked at the takeout-based Niko’s Gyros To Go in North Royalton for 5 years, and decided it was time to bring their passion for Mediterranean food to Brunswick. Anthony said, “Opening my own Niko’s has always been a dream, and I am so excited to bring it to life.”
Niko’s Gyros To Go Brunswick will offer a delicious, authentic Greek Mediterranean menu, such as Niko’s famous gyros, gyro pizzas, smoked wings, Niko’s burgers, and many exciting specials - plus a vegetarian menu. Niko’s Gyros places a focus on fresh ingredients, with most of their ingredients being sourced locally.
This may be Anthony and Gena’s first time being restaurant owners, but their team brings years of hands-on experience with a genuine passion for food and customer service. Gena said, “The warmth and support from Brunswick residents has already made us feel at home, and we’re so excited to give back by serving the best food possible.”
Niko’s Gyros To-Go Brunswick will operate as a takeout restaurant only. Residents can order by phone or online. Niko’s is located at 3840 Center Rd, Brunswick, OH 44212, and is open from 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Anthony and Gena plan to actively participate in local events, support community initiatives, and partner with organizations, schools, and local charities.
“We’re a family-owned restaurant and truly can’t wait to meet everyone and become part of this wonderful community,” said Anthony. Details will be announced on Niko’s Gyros To Go Brunswick’s Facebook page. Brunswick residents are encouraged to follow Niko’s Facebook page for future updates.
When asked what they hope customers will say after their first visit, their answer was simple: “Best gyro I’ve ever had.” To contact the Saieds or Niko’s Gyros To-Go Brunswick, visit their Facebook page, Niko’s Gyros To-Go Brunswick.
