The owner Nick, and his Waite staff could care less about making his customers comfortable. The food is good, not great, but his ideal is an overflowing crowd which is noisy, and makes for an uncomfortable dinner. You end up with others standing over you while you try to enjoy your meal. Just not a good place. read more

Came looking for pasta an hour away from home before my soccer game to find this hole in the wall styled restaurant. The menu prices were quite impressive and the variety offered is one that will have me coming back. I had the Maria's Pasta which was phenomenal, my dad had Nick's pizza which was a delicacy and well topped abs prepared. Bathrooms were clean, dining area was well kept, staff was prompt and efficient. Overall recommend this place to any Italian lover. read more

Some of the best pizza around. We really enjoy nicks pizza and his calzones are amazing too. Always satisfied with our order here. It's usually pretty busy so we typically take our food to go but staff is usually pretty friendly as well. Would definitely recommend. read more

Great Eggplant Parmesan , lasagna and pizza! My Grand children and I enjoyed our dinner and this is a popular place and it looked like most of Pilot Point loves it, busy place. Would go again in a minute! read more

We moved here a couple weeks ago and have been twice. Great service, and the food is spectacular. Highly recommend stopping here for an excellent Italian meal. read more

Fresh ingredients & perfect crust. This place is byob. I had their pizza, stuffed mushrooms, & dessert. I liked it all, not to empressed w/their tiramisu but their cannoli was the best I've had. Can't wait to try the rest of the menu. read more

We LOVE Nick's!!! Great gluten free recipes too!! It's perfect because our whole family can eat there, and everyone gets what they want at such a reasonable price! Their gluten free pizza is second to none!! I'd put it up against most regular pizzas!! They've got a great thing going. read more

Great lasagna and salads! You can bring your own favorite beverage. The entire menu is delicious Lasagna is my favorite!! Try them! read more

We came here following an afternoon spent at Texas Tulips. My spinach calzone was rather tasty. I was stoked that the restaurant uses fresh spinach instead of canned (yuck!). For Italian food, Nick's is affordable and benefitted our poor college student wallets. I do not frequent the area, but did enjoy this "hole in the wall" location. Yum! read more

I am obsessed with this place! Best Italian food for miles and the staff is so friendly and personable. Make sure you try the house dressing and rolls!! Thanks for making my dinners so great Nicks ! Chicken parmigiana is a must. read more

Been meaning to try this place given all the good things I heard about it. Finally had the chance to visit today with a couple of friends. Before I say another word, I should mention I am a native New Yorker of Italian descent. Well let me tell you, the moment I walked in and smelled the pizza dough cooking I felt immediately at home. I had the chicken parmesan as that's my usual go to dish when trying a new place, but one of my friends got a large pepperoni pizza and shared some with the rest of us. One bite and I could tell this place was legit. Truly a hidden gem as you would not normally expect such authentic tasting Italian fare in quaint little Texas town. It's only about 30 min north of our neighborhood so I can't wait to take my wife up here next time we're in the mood for this type of cuisine. Looking forward to trying some of the other menu items In addition to fantastic food, the service was fast and friendly. Will definitely be back! read more

Stopped by for dinner one day after picking tulips. Great place to eat Italian food! Looks sketchy on the outside, nothing fancy, but the interior is great. They start you off with some soft and delicious rolls that looked like cinnamon rolls. Then I ordered a chicken piccata with ranch salad. Which was enjoyable. The chicken piccata had a lemon-y flavor to it. The waitress asked me if I wanted capers on my dish and I didn't know what they were so she gave me the option to leave them out. I googled and they're the little green pea looking things derived from a plant bud (never knew but now I know). Our waitress was friendly and accommodated all of us. Overall, I'd come back in the future when I'm in the area and maybe order a pizza- one of their pizza size is hugeeeee! read more

The customer service was super and everyone was friendly; the place had a positive "vibe" to it from the moment we came in til the moment we left. It's BYOB so bring a nice Chianti to go with your pasta or pizza! I tried their homemade tomato Italian dressing and they should bottle it and sell it! The chicken Florentine was delicious (though I like my sauce a tad thicker) and my husband's chicken piccata was excellent. Even the dinner rolls and garlic butter were tasty! The location is only about 15 minutes from the state park where we were staying. Very glad we found Nick's on Yelp, definitely 5 stars! read more

I never thought I would find such a fantastic Italian restaurant in such a small town. My go to is the cheese raviolis every visit. The pizza here is amazing and you see so many people come in an pick up when there is literally a Pizza Hut and Dominos down the street. This is our family meet up restaurant and not once has anyone been disappointed. It's BYOB and the owner just may sit down and have one with you. Highly recommend this place. read more

Nick catered our son's Wedding Rehearsal Dinner at our Airbnb. The food and service were awesome. Nick took care of every detail, arrived promptly, kept the food warm until served and provided great service in an outdoor environment. There were 50 guests and they all raved about Nick and the quality of food that was served. I highly recommend Nick and Nick's Italian Restaurant for any event you may have. Very friendly and we felt like they were part of the family. No event? Visit the restaurant! You won't be disappointed. Thanks Nick! read more

Easily my favorite restaurant in north Texas, my fiancé and I have eaten here no less than once a week for the last 6 months. My only complaint is that I didn't try it sooner. We've sampled nearly every item on the menu and can honestly say everything has been great. Bring your favorite bottle of wine and enjoy a great meal. read more

YES!!!! Finally found a great place for Italian food near PV. Only reason I didn't give it 5 stars, they are BYOB. All good though. Saved me some money on booze. :) Food was EXCELLENT! We had been running around town trying to find a hotel while our AC was out in mid August and this little place was across the street from where we stayed. Great service, great food. We had lobster ravioli and shrimp scampi...oh and the garlic bread was to die for as were the desserts we took back to the hotel. read more

family owned, great for pizza or pasta, hope cooked, with fabulous desserts

Who knew this place is such a treasure. We have picked up pizza a few times and eaten there multiple times. Everything is absolutely delicious. Highly recommend NY Chicken Salad (which isn't really a typically salad). Even the simple side salad is so fresh and delicious. And the people there are incredibly friendly and so attentive to check on us and served so well. Felt like home being there. read more

Very generous portions I'll have leftovers for days! Super friendly great service, drinks never got empty. Just moved to the area and will def be back often read more

I have only gotten the chicken parmigiana sandwich, but it's pretty solid. Great marinara sauce lots of cheese, and the chicken is just right. Service is stellar. Friendly and attentive staff. A real pleasure coming here. read more

Such a cool spot to eat. The pasta is bomb. Also, the cool change up on the sauce for the house salad is really good!

Amazing food!!! The Trtellini with Aristocrat sauce was the best!!!!! He is such a nice guy, always circulating and friendly with the customers. Worth the money by far!!! read more

The food is clean, but does not taste like NY Italian or even any other quality italian joint in north tx. May have been an off day so we will try again soon. read more

Amazing all I can say is it is the best !! And Millie makes everyone feel so special read more

I honestly wasn't expecting more than an average, run of the mill "Roma" blah food experience. But Nick's has surpassed that and provided some yummy food. Don't get me wrong, it isn't gourmet, but it is tasty. I've been here a few times now and haven't been disappointed yet. The Chicken Parm is crispy and juicy, the red sauce is always good. The alfredo has been on/off though. The first time we ate here it was fantastic and the second time we had it, it was rather bland. Overall, it's a good place and we'll make it out go to Italian for the area (not to mention it's the only place!). read more

Out riding & stopped here for a late lunch. Everything about the pizza was great. The price wasn't bad either. You can eat cheap at a Domino's, but the taste wouldn't even compare to Nick's. Got to meet Nick who was going from table to table making sure his guests were happy. There was a large party there for a birthday & it was obvious they enjoyed the service & the food. We can't wait to go back for some more pizza next time we ride this way! Be sure to stop here if you get a chance, you won't regret it! read more

The waitress obviously didn't care about the place. She barely talked to us, barely delivered us water or food. And said she didn't have change for a $5 for the guy checking out in front of us... The lady who delivered our bread was wonderful and came by 3 times. The rolls were amazing... so was the garlic butter The food was pretty good. Loved the Misty's Manicotti Pasta. It was very peppery and spicy.... and very yummy. The pizza we got was a meatball and peppercinis... the meatballs was sliced which was weird... and actually just tasted like beef. This was tasty. Although not what we expected. I would recommend this place, just hope the waitress we had will not be in attendance next time. read more

Being a yankee transplant to the south, i know italian food. This food is legit. I would've posted a picture, but i was too busy eating to pay attention to yelp. We started w free,rolls and garlic butter, a fantastic prelude to the rest of the meal!! We split the Italian sampler,substituted spag instead of tortellini, and added an extra meatball. The Italian marinara sauce is divine! I have no complaints! It also came w chicken parm and alfredo/linguini. Split the antipasta plate, w olives, ham, pepperoni, salami, mozz cheese, toms, and spinach. Love!! The tomato vinaigrette was not my fav. I was fine w just a simple evoo and vinegar. Finished it w a slice of lemoncello cake. Lemon and mascarpone... yes, lord!! Not to mention our server millie was incredibly friendly and helpful in deciding order. Definitely a keeper for the restaurant! This place is byob, and has a small eating area for parties and groups. Dont pass this place by!! read more

Wonderful family environment with fabulous food every single time! True to their Italian heritage these folks make the finest food from scratch you can find. The Merchant's read more

We have dined at Nick's on many occasions and ordered take out as well. You will not be disappointed!! Everything is so good from the spaghetti, the lasagna, and the pizza! Great desserts as well! We are always stuffed, but the tiramisu is to good to pass up!! Great service and atmosphere to boot! Enjoy as it's all delicious! read more

Little hidden gem in Pilot Point! The NY chicken salad is amazing! The garlic knots and sauce is out of this world. We love this place! And BYOB! read more

Very very disappointed this place was horrible the quality of the food sucked . The reviews are not accurate other than service was decent. Do not recommend. read more

Yesterday I had a craving for Italian food. We had heard good things of Aviano in Aubrey, so first, we made the trek down there. But when we got there, they appeared to be closed. So I hopped back on Yelp and saw Nick's, so back up 377 we went. I am so glad. The food was delicious, the server who greeted us and served us was very nice. I wish I'd gotten her name, but she was taller and had curly hair. We loved their complimentary rolls. They were hot, fresh and light, and came with a compound butter with garlic and herbs. We also got Grandmas' Bread as an appetizer. It was tasty, nice tomato slices on top of soft garlic bread with cheese. My husband got spaghetti with meat sauce. The portion was sizable and he said it was good. He also ate all of it, which is the more important fact. I got John's Lasagna. I do not often swoon over food. I am not one of those food bloggers that talks about bites of food being the best thing ever. However: This lasagna was delicious. Seriously one of the best I've ever had. The aristocrat sauce is a simple mixture of red sauce and Alfredo sauce, but it's delicious. Get the lasagna. You won't be sad. read more

Misty's Manicotti is ridiculously good! The Piccata was a bit salty. Everything else was divine and you can bring your own wine!! Friendly servers and remarkable food coupled with the wine if your choice. What's not to love? read more

Nick's Italian Restaurant - Byob. That's pretty awesome right?! ;) It's cool that Nick the owner came out to visit with us. - Italian Near Me - Pilot Point, Texas

Love Nick's, service is great, but the food is better. Pizza is awesome, Aristocrat Sauce is so simple but perfect. I can not think of anything on the menu that I wouldn't order. read more

First of all, let me start off with saying we eat here all the time! Not only because it is probably one of few options in Pilot Point, but because it s so damn good! I certainly will drive wherever I need to get good food, but with Nick's there is absolutely no need to drive further than down the street when you're looking for great Italian food! Chicken Francese is amazing, Ribeye is better than most steakhouses, and a new addition to the menu, Fiocchi, is by far one of my ATFs! They were voted best pizza and Denton County and for good reason! And to top it all off, the staff is top notch! If you run into Millie, Draven, or Nick himself tell them Pineapple sent you! They MIGHT kick you out, but that's my fault, not yours! Seriously, hit this place up! You won't be disappointed!!! read more

I just had their lasagna and it was SO good!!! Our waitress was great, service was fast and friendly. Clean restaurant and clean bathrooms! Will definitely be back!!! read more

I'm always looking for great food off the beaten path, Nick's fits the bill. The first sign you're in a good Italian restaurant is the owner introduces himself to you. Next, you've got to be able to see the kitchen from your table. Nick's score high on both. The food is excellent, I had the veal parm and stuffed mushrooms. For dessert limoncello cake, perfect. No BS about it, if this place were opened in NYC 60 years ago, it would still be there today. Pilot Point, you have a hidden gem! read more
