A true Patriarch . you left an incredible legacy Nick Petros! Always appreciated your wisdom and passion!
Some sad news for Calgary. Nick Petros, who opened Nick’s Steak House across from McMahon Stadium in 1979, has passed away. Nick was born in 1935. The business has been run in recent years by son Mark. This is picture of myself with Nick from 2019.
