Nick's Restaurant

Nick's

I have dined at Nick's a few times.  The staff has always been attentive and knowledgeable. One of my favorites is the GRILLED STEAK HOUSE SALAD:  sliced ribeye - mixed greens - warm potato salad croutons - roasted bell pepper pepper

mustard bacon vinaigrette.

I order my steak medium rare for this dish.  This salad is hearty enough if you are hungry, a good composition of salad and protein with a scoop of potato salad nicely tucked away underneath.  My friend, Tammy, likes the Housemade Veggie Burger.  The Blackened Chicken + Noodle Salad is another one to try.  Nick's can be a popular spot, so reservations.  A good tip no matter what, especially if this is for a date.  Ask to sit outside or in the back to watch the chef cook.
