    Always love the spinach dip. This time I had the blackened fish sandwich and it was really good. Their margaritas are very tasty and top tier!

    Very attentive service and great food! It was busy but not loud at all. Attention to detail was noticeable. We had the prime rib sandwich and blackened fish(Halibut) sandwhich both with fries. Everthing was seasoned and cooked perfectly. We had wanted to try this place for a long time, glad we finally did, we will be back.

    Always great service and excellent food. New items like katsu salad and cha cha were amazing. The seasonal corn is cooked to perfection.

    A friend and I went to Nick’s to celebrate our birthdays. Everyone who works at the restaurant was very friendly and nice. Our waitress made suggestions and asked questions to understand my food allergy. I had the California salad with added chicken and it was delicious. My friend loves the asparagus fries so she started with those and then had the kale and quinoa salad with salmon. The food was delicious. And they brought us two desserts (one each) with candles on them to help us celebrate. We’ll definitely go here again.
