The entire experience was fantastic. Beautiful ambience and easy to have a conversation with your partner or whoever you are there with since it is quiet. Food was immaculate and the espresso chocolate martini was spectacular. Highly recommend for a nice date night, top notch. Will come back again!

The food here is always great. I had the lamb and sea (lamb chops and shrimp) which was one of the specials. The lamb was cooked just as I asked (medium) and was a nice portion, along with 5 or 6 shrimp, mashed potatoes and broccoli. I also had the mussels for an appetizer, some of the best I have had. Everyone at our table was too full for dessert. In fact, 3 out of the 5 of us took home leftovers. Nick’s Bistro remains one of our favorite restaurants both for the food and the value, as well as the friendly, attentive wait staff.
