    Food and ambiance here is always very good. We have eaten here many times. The service was subpar though, we never got our waiter name, he didn’t introduce himself or converse with us in any way other than ordering. He was the only employee of about 20 who was wearing a face mask and we couldn’t understand what he was saying. He basically dropped the food and ran off. Gave him the “guilt tip” which has become so common in our country. We just returned from Ireland, we received excellent service everywhere we went. You have to go out of your way to give gratuity there, it’s not as common, but believe me, the people are very grateful for it and they give excellent service without expecting it. This is not a cheap restaurant, I would expect more from Nicks employees.

    Always a great spot with our boys. We can enjoy ourselves while keeping an eye on them while they play on the structure.

    Usually a good place, this time the music was too loud and food came out cold. Server barely came to my table and overall the staff was not pleasant.

    Server and food was incredible, as always! I really wish they would turn the music down, it’s almost impossible to hear what others are saying when you’re sitting inside.
