   Nicksan definitely has its pros and cons. In general, the food costs about what we pay back in California. However, the sushi rolls cost about 25% more here than our restaurants back home. Same for the exotic shellfish (i.e., oysters, lobster). Stay away from these items and your dinner will be reasonably priced. Food ranged from okay to wonderful. The oysters that my wife got were very small and at $22 USD per half dozen, didn't seem worth it to me. They were tasty, but there was barely any food in all six of them. The sashimi salad that I had was good and there was plenty of it. Despite the roll prices, we got a half order of one of them (a special "Shiromi" I believe) and it was quite tasty with a different kick to it from chili oil. Service was attentive and prompt. Ambience was elegant but simple. One negative aspect is the chairs. They're wooden with no cushions and not particularly comfortable. When the bill came, there were two extra items on it that we didn't order. I brought this to the attention of the staff, and the items were removed. But it left me wanting to warn everyone to check their bill closely. I suggest you do this.

   The music was excruciatingly loud. Multiple parties were complaining about it and the staff acted like they were clueless. The dining room looked like a diner and the crowd was primarily folks off the cruise line. Not the upscale experience that’s portrayed online or reflective of the prices. Would not recommend.

   We went here based on a recommendations from friends and unfortunately were disappointed. The quality of the fish and other dishes were not good, we expected much better based on reviews. The fish selection was small and the only one that tasted fresh was the snapper. Rice was not seasoned or cooked correctly and the baked scallops were just bay scallops baked with a bunch of Mayo and cheese. If you are used to quality fresh fish when you go to sushi this is not the place. If you want to drink and have overpriced sub-par food then it might work.

    Not sure why this is one of the “best restaurants” in Cabo. Barely any mex-Japanese fusion options on the menu. Slow service. No omikase, like the website led me to believe. This is a normal sushi place.

    Nick-San Cabo San LucasResponded on November 7, 2022Thank you for your recent visit to Nicksan. Nicksan Style is a fusion of Japanese food traditions with the fresh flavors of Mexico. We consistently achieve to provide our customers with a perfect dining experience, and we are sorry we didn't reach the goal. Thank you for letting us know your opinion. We will try our best to improve; thank you so much for helping us.

    Food was actually very good. The bill portion was awful. They charged us and said it didn’t go through so we logged into our bank plus called our bank, both verified it did but even after showing them the charge on our bank account, they treated us like liars. We left but they collected all of our info to track us down if it doesn’t get to them eventually. So bottom line, their system is broken and their refusal to except what we clearly showed them was unacceptable. We will not be back!

    The food was very good. The oysters were delicious. The spicy tuna cake was exceptional and the hamachi was fresh and tasty. I loved the maguro lime roll which was large enough to share. The decor is clean and spare but a bit clinical. The only thing I did not care for was the lack of printed menus. A scanned menu is harder to read.

    We always enjoy coming to Nik-San and last night was no exception. We love the blend of traditional sushi and the Mexican ingredients and flavors. The cilantro sashimi continues to be a ongoing favorite, the tuna sashimi serranito was equally good, and the shrimp and scallop gyoza were delicious, as were the various rolls we sampled. We will certainly keep coming back. 4 people, cocktails before dinner, a bottle of wine, 7 different dishes. $300/ tip included.

    The sashimi and rolls were the most freshest that I ever ate. We left it up to the chef to select the plates for us. We were not disappointed at all. The servings were just enough for our party of 4. The waiters were friendly and helpful. Carlos made sure to explain each one of the dishes. He also told us that we did not have to use soy sauce and he was absolutely right. My wife’s favorite was the hairy balls. (See picture) I strongly recommend that you visit this wonderfully delicious restaurant and leave it up to the waiter and chef to select your dishes.

    Place was packed with lots of raucous cheering going on in the private rooms. Wasn’t an issue for us but would definitely have spoiled things if you’d gone there for a quiet, romantic date. Food was top-notch, service efficient but not particularly friendly. Tell them it’s your birthday and you get a sparkler in your dessert- we pontificated on the unlikely odds that every single person in the restaurant had their birthday that day except us 🤔😂
