Nick and Nino's Penthouse Steakhouse

The food was great and the service was absolutely excellent. I made a special request for a certain table and was accommodated. If I had to find something less than perfect, I would say that the Crab Cakes’s are not my favorite appetizer. We have eaten there many times before and I have to say I prefer the firecracker shrimp and calamari over the Crab Cakes. They were still good, just not my favorite item. I would totally recommend dining here.

Awesome !!

This place was excellent. Only complaint I have is with open table saying less than $30. Not true

Delicious meal and wonderful service. Pricey but worth it

Food and atmosphere are unique! Great views of the Springfield skyline! However, would have to rate lower because of service .... a second round of drinks were brought out (which we were charged for) that weren't ordered and when ordering dessert they would not swap out a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the (alcoholic) Manhattan that came with the chocolate cake even though it was for my 14yo son. (Turns out we were charged separately for the Manhattan that came with the cake anyway which could have easily been done without. You would think that they would care more about customer retention than leaving that $4+ charge on our $300+ dinner bill.

A bit on the pricey side, really paying for the ambiance, was a special occasion but wouldn’t consider for many more visits for a meal.

Our waiter was very patient as we celebrated our daughter’s accomplishments. He was also very knowledgeable about the food choices, how everything was prepared and what side orders would compliment our meal. Water glasses were always filled. The food was excellent! By far, this was the best meal we’ve had! We will make this our go to favorite! Excellence all around!!

Place is Fantastic. I’ve been coming here for almost 5 years. Some of my favorite dishes exist only in this thirty story getaway. Best views of Springfield, best meals of the world.

Amazing as always! Rick is the best!

This was our first time here and they did not disappoint. We were seated right away even though we were a little early. The staff was very attentive to our wants and needs. Wonderful bread basket and the steaks were delicious. We tried the Nicks potatoes to share, tasty but would probably try something else next time.

Wonderful dining experience - I always look forward to going to Nick and Nino's!

I’m never disappointed when I come here. The best steak I’ve had after every time I go. Service is always impeccable between the waiters assistant and waiter. I will always recommend this establishment.

Absolutely the best filets on the planet. The crust and sauce options are so fun to explore. Nicks potatoes are a must! Our server Rick was so attentive. Our only mishap was an unevenly adjoined table that caused a wine spill. Definitely going back for our next special occasion. Thank you for a great evening.

Very pleasantly surprised. One of the nicest and tastiest meals we have ever had in Springfield, IL. Will highly recommend it to friends and family. Excellent experience from start to finish.

Amazing food, service and view! Wonderful place to meet a new friend.

The atmosphere and Food were primo, however, the noise level made it hard to hear and the price was a bit much for a two-person dinner but the quality of the food left a very good taste in the mouth.

Beautiful view of the city lights. Our waiter, I believe his name was Rick, was outstanding. The best service Experience I have ever had. He truly took care of Customers, and was very professional! Food was amazing and the atmosphere very relaxed. Wonderful time.

Small portions. Very salty. Steak topping should be served on side. Cheesecake slice was miniscule. Overall very disappointing meal for price paid.

Went here last year and came back this year. It was better this year than last year and I did not think it could get any better!!!

Great food and service. Nice atmosphere. Very pricey Nice for a special occasion

On Valentine's evening they have a special menu with an appetizer to share, entree choice from 3 and desert with champagne. The meal and the service was wonderful and the atmosphere very nice for special occasions. My only complaint and reason for not giving a 5 star rating is there was not a desert choice, only one option. That option contained nuts and I have an allergy to nuts.

Great meal (scallops , sea base), great service with Rick. Very nice place for special occasion

We had an amazing anniversary night! Sebastian our server was incredible he was polite and helpful and curtious! The food was amazing and the atmosphere was amazing as well . We will be going back there! And we will be telling our friends!

Nick and Nino's has become my favorite restaurant in the area! The atmosphere and service are top notch, and they make you feel like the table is your's for the entire evening. Relaxed and elegant. A very special experience for a Springfield restaurant!

We had a great evening and the food was simply amazing.

Our waiter was outstanding!

I had requested a window seat for myself and my husband and our two friends for our 40th birthday celebration. The restaurant was elegant. The view of the city was awesome. The food was delicious and the waiter was on point from beginning to end. He was very attentive. The whole experience was worth the money.

Our server was knowledgeable, appropriately friendly, and efficient. She did not try to become our best friend and allowed us our space and time in ordering. The food, which is pricey for Springfield, Illinois, was delicious and made to perfection. Although our table was not right next to the window, we still had a decent view of Springfield at night. We were too full to taste the desserts, however, they looked delicious.

First time here and was very pleased. Food was delicious. A bit pricey though.

Outstanding service provided by Amanda over the course of our two hour meal. She was efficient and conversational. Plenty of time between courses for conversation and settling. Ample servings but we left satisfied and not like a stuffed pig.

Christmas with loved ones

Everything from being greeted by the host/coat check, the young lady who refils the water, our server, to every morsel of food was impeccable!! We will return, and I have already recommended to friends!!

When they first opened we were disappointed in the food for the money. This time we were not disappointed except that we had requested a window and even though we were there when they opened we did not get a window table.

The lobster bisque, bread assortment, steak filet, salmon, scalloped potatoes and deserts were outstanding! Our favorite appetizer has always been the firecracker shrimp; however, they are now using a little too much breading and need to tone that down a bit in order to restore them to exceptional. Was there for New Years Eve and temp was too warm. The staff is excellent! Will definitely go back.

This is a restaurant that sets a benchmark for all others to be judged. When something isn’t broke you don’t fix it and this place is perfectly perfect!!

Never a bad experience w/ consistency being their wheelhouse. Food, service & atmosphere all top notch. Rick has been a welcomed staple that always exceeds expectations.

Had our favorite waiter, Rick, who always makes the experience special. Food is always good but a bit overpriced.

Just be aware, this is high end $$. But worth every penny.

Beautiful restaurant at the top of Springfield Illinois. The food was amazing - made reservations for one evening and loved it so much we returned the following evening. It was worth every penny. Excellent service - beautiful view, wonderful atmosphere, amazing service - a true find!

My husband and I are very picky about our steaks and I have to say they were delicious! Perfectly prepared too! The hash brown caserol was very good just WAYYYYY to large for me. We had a wonderful time!

Superb! A cut above; literally.
