    Roaches in the dinning room  employees left it there all day

    Roaches on the floors, roaches in the bathroom. DISGUSTING. REPORTED to the health dept. Crawling in the bathroom all over the floor. Dead in the dining room and left there all day.

    Biscuit & Gravy   Breakfast - Full with scrambled eggs and pork sausage
    Tim S.

    Worth diverting off US24 for breakfast. Best biscuits and gravy I have had in a long, long time. The pork sausage is off the hook good. This is the quintessential all American diner experience. I am profoundly grateful that we left West Lafayette and decided this was the are we were hungry for breakfast

    Pork Breaded Tenderloin
    Nelson M.

    After hearing about the pork tenderloin, becoming our state sandwich, I decided to give nicks kitchen a try. It did not disappoint. The pork tenderloin sandwich, which is the highlight of the meal is larger than your head. The tenderloin itself is quite juicy and the batter around it Has just the right consistency, not too hard or too soft. After our meal, we had two slices of the pie. There's quite a selection as you will see from my menu pictures. I know it may sound blasphemous, but I thought that the pies were only OK. unlike other fruit pies that I've tried before that have a lot of filling the filling has some fruit however, the consistency of that pie filling leaves much to be desired. I don't know how to describe it, but the texture was off and it seemed like it could be sweeter. Nevertheless this is a unique stop for anyone craving pork, tenderloin, sandwich! The service was top-notch. They are very quick to get the order and also get the food to the table. The overall ambience was a classic retro diner, feel.

    Nick's in downtown Huntington, IN

    We were in town for a wedding and had Nick's recommended. Once our party figured out which of the THREE places called Nick's in the area was the right one, our large-ish party was accommodated as we trickled in. We enjoyed the diner ambiance and the food was acceptable.

    I drove an hour and a half to check this place out based on a recommendation. The restaurant has been in this location since 1908, and rumor says it's the birthplace of the Hoosier tenderloin. It was worth the drive. I had the breaded tenderloin with onion rings, and both were very good. It was worth the drive. I don't have a sweet tooth, but their flight of pies looked very tempting. There isn't a lot to do in Huntington, but there are some places worth visiting. Be sure to check out the Quayle Vice Presidential Learning Center. It is about a block away from Nick's, and it is the only museum dedicated to vice presidents in the nation. Go for the tenderloin, and stay for the nice people.

    Famous tenderloin sandwich with fries
    Rhett B.

    I looked up destination restaurants before I moved up to Indiana and noticed this curious place known for a delicacy in Indiana. That delicacy being pork tenderloin sandwich. I looked at photos of the sandwich on Yelp and noticed how huge the sandwich was. It sounded like the kind of place I needed to investigate. Nick's is located in downtown Huntington. Inside looks like an old-time dinner remodeled. I love the sign that says Pig Out. When we sit down at our table, the menu is clearly visible with the Pork Tenderloin sandwich having its own box. The menu states it has been made there since 1908. I cannot get over how huge this sandwich is. It makes me wonder what is the point of the bread. The tenderloin hangs halfway off each side. The tenderloin is fried but not greasy. And the pork is tenderized. The sandwich comes with mayo, onion, pickles, tomato, and lettuce. I added spicy ketchil to mine and it made an exquisite sandwich that I would eat again in a heartbeat. It comes with freshmade home cut fries, which I wish was a little thicker. But having spicy ketchup makes up for it. After my sandwich, I had to have a flight of pie. I went with chocolate, peanut butter, and blueberry sour cream. The chocolate was like a rich, chocolate pudding. The peanut butter is what you would expect. The blueberry sour cream is similar to a cheesecake. But what really sent this to a 5-star for me was the excellent flavor of the fresh-brewed sweet tea. It's hard to find in Indiana and the tea had just enough sweetness to it. I drank 6 glasses. If you are in Huntington or nearby, Nick's Kitchen is a destination you have to visit for the pork tenderloin sandwich, pie, and sweet tea.

    Great place. Super service. Delicious food. The tenderloin sandwich is awesome. The root beer was ice cold with a first mug to top it off.

    We special ordered extra marinara sauce, and the pizza hardly had any sauce on it at all. Pizza…read moremakers need to pay closer attention to special requests on orders!

    If I could give less than one star I would. Today my fiance and I order a breakfast pizza being all…read moreexcited only to get it to have to thru it back into the oven and be told "what would you have liked me to do? Stick my finger in your oizza?" When I called to notify them my pizza was NOT cooked throughly. Serving uncooked food is not only disgusting but unfortunately. Expecially with all kinds of illnesses already going around this is not okay. The young fella I talked to was very rude and told me and I quote him on this "even if the pizza isn't done we aren't aloud to put it back in the oven" so what you're telling me is you are to either just throw that pizza away if the oven isn't working properly? This pizza is absolutely disgusting not I the sense of taste but the sense of sloppiness. I ordered so I didn't have to cook yet still had to finish cooking it. For 20 dollars?! For one pizza. No. God help these individuals working there as they need to learn what is wrong with what they're doing. What kind of place has no manager working no assistant manager and some kid that tells me he could have shoved his finger in my pizza. And then went on to say he had other orders. So that means serve me not done food? My son is 2....the health department as well as the manager will be hearing from me.
