    Restaurant opened at 10 instead of 11 for Mother’s Day, we thought that would mean they would have a brunch menu, but it was just the regular lunch menu at 10am. On top of that the quality of the food was overall pretty bad. Only half and half available for the coffee, no oat milk, no almond milk. Mom said it tasted like “Panera” quality, but at 4 times the price. Very disappointing. We won’t be back.

    Nick’s is always wonderful. The ambiance, the setting, the food, the service. We sat outside on the side patio for the first time and it was lovely. It appeared that the restaurant was fully booked , which only lended to an air of conviviality. Each area has its special feeling, each one comfortable and fun: outside in the front, outside on the side, inside in a couple of different areas with booth seating and the bar, which is great fun in the weekends, with the sports on tv, the great bartenders and high top eating, talking, drinking.

    Exceptional service, great martinis and the food was fantastic too! You have to try the deviled eggs if you like deviled eggs because they are so good! The ahi tartare is exceptional as well. I always get the veggie burger as they have great flavor and a nice texture. They’re handmade on site. My friend had a burger and it looked really good too. Lastly, they were so sweet to give me a birthday card signed by the staff. I do t recall telling them it was my birthday but somehow they knew. Anyway I love this place.
