I've avoided this place for years after discovering (the hard way) that they'll put condiments on your sandwich that you didn't ask for. Yesterday, I was having a hankering for a classic Boston-area roast beef sandwich, so I figured I'd give them another try. I started off with a slice of pizza, which was dry and tasteless. I followed that up with a roast beef sandwich, which was one of the most disappointing I've ever had in this area. The beef wasn't warm, and it was so lumpy that several times, I found it impossible to bite through and wound up pulling a huge lump out of the middle of the sandwich with my teeth. Either they're using a cheaper cut of beef than every other roast beef joint on the North Shore, or they're not cutting it as thinly. Either way, I won't bother going back to this place. read more

Sad to say, but this place was filthy, uninviting, SLOW service, and my food wasn't good. The dirty floors and tables should have been a sign to turn tail. Marginally friendly staff took forever to get my food ready. I was the only person there. My hot roast beef sandwich was barely above cold. Meat was gamey. Fries were Ore-Ida, but at least they were piping hot. I will not return. You should not either. Plenty of other options down the street. read more

I ordered a "Large Margarita Pizza" which was described on the menu as having "Fresh mozarella, fresh basil, garlic, sliced tomato, olive oil". This was the worst pizza I've had! No garlic, no tomato, no olive oil... only a bad crust with a bit of sauce with some cheese. I definitely will not go back! read more

The first time I came in here the guy behind the counter said they were closed, even though it was not late, the lights were on, and the door was open. I was not thrilled with that, but I figured and come back and see if they were open this time. I got a burger with nothing else. While my friend and I waited I couldn't help but notice COPS (classy) was on the TV by the door and some guy with a weird mullet was being arrested, who knows for what but that hair was a major violation. My burger was well cooked and fairly tasty but was pretty average as burgers go. 3.5 stars. read more

I first was introduced to Nick's place when we moved about 3 blocks away 20 years ago. Since then I have been hooked on their Chicken Kabob salad. After moving to the next town over, we started to look for local comparables. We still find ourselves going out of our way, or after work to stop by Nick's and pick up a Kabob Salad. We have not found another place that comes close to Nick's Kabob salad. Nick has his little secret that makes his salad unique. He has been able to maintain the quality, freshness and taste of his Chicken Kabob salad. I highly recommend it. P.S. Their pizzas and stake subs are also very good. read more

This place is awesome. I've been coming here for 15+ years and I really don't think there's anything better for a quick and easy meal that tastes great. Huge menu selection! The large calzones are big enough to have leftovers for a week! Chicken and Broccoli calzone is my favorite. The Greek salad is excellent, and even better with Chicken Kabob. Feeling like something fried? They've got it all. Nice staff, keep the place clean, and always consistent in the food for as long as I've been coming here! read more

If I didn't have a microwave I'd never get delivery. 100% of the time the god is delivered cold. However, the food is very good. Half the time the order is wrong but hey I found our I like Mac & cheese bites thanks to another incorrect order. Here's the deal if you want good take out pick your food up at Nicks. Nick's is the only place near Arlington Heights or this side of Lexington worth your money. read more

Best burger with everything, anywhere in Greater Boston. I share the burger with my husband and we're both full. It's huge, it's a bargain, but I drive out of my way because it's a good burger. Good meat. Loads of things on the menu I have never tried. I am mainly reviewing the burger, because I found it the best and have been coming back just for that for years. We have had occasion to get the subs and so on, which are just as good a anywhere, basically, pretty good and responsibly crafted. But those burgers are the hook. If you need a quick meal for the kids, there is plenty to choose from like chicken fingers and salad. read more

I just moved to CA and can't find one sub place as good as Nicks! I really all of their items - but my favorites are the steak and cheese, roast beef - super beef is unreal!!!, chicken kabob dinners fish and gyro. I am not a pizza person but their pizza is good. Thick Greek type pizza and everyone I know likes it. It's great you can get delivery but pick up is easy too as the parking lot has lots of spots. Service is good and consistent! Really one of the best places to get a sandwich in the area. read more

I was in the area last weekend and was looking for lunch and decided to stop here. I got a few slices. The pizza was very good and was pretty cheap. The service was great as well. Nick was there and was very nice! He told me he was making a fresh pizza if I wanted to wait for my slices or I could have the last two slices sitting there. I have not had anything else to eat here, so this review is solely on the pizza slices and the service. I was pretty happy with my decision to have lunch there. If I am ever in the area again I will definitely stop in. read more

Best beef? No. Best beef by me, now that the next closest option are mileS away, rather than mile or less? Yes. The regular beef was adequate too our needs. It was monstrous. I tremble at the thought of the size of the super. And the beef itself was good good - warm, a little red, and in an agreeable mound. Bust on the BBQ sauce, though, which is why I'm docking a star down to three for now. Was it actually buffalo sauce? Might have been. It was hawt, sure, but a bit too much so, and a little watery. The mayo evened it out and salvaged the sandwich. They missed the onions, but that's fine, I had some at home. Grilled bun a must, and done juuuuust right. Bingo. read more

Let me start by saying that the food is pretty awesome, especially the roast beef sandwiches. With that said why does it always take so long to get your food? It's not all the time. When the manager is there the food goes out, when he has the day off it doesn't. One time we called in food and told us 20 minutes but when we showed up 20 minutes later they had yet to fire up the food. Great food but but a slow option for pizza places read more

Ordered Two slices. One Cheese, One Cheese Steak. First glance the slices looked pretty small. I went for the Cheese Steak first and for the amount of grease there was on this slice, it didn't provide much flavor. The meat tasted dry and somewhat sweet. I was looking for Steak that tasted more like a Steak and Cheese Sub. After this slice I ate the Plain Cheese. It was a tad on the greasy side and although the cheese had the right texture and was sharp tasting enough, the slice altogether didn't have that restaurant level taste, it tasted closer to freezer pizza. On both of the slices, the sauce looked like it taken straight from the can and lacked any personality with any spices or added ingredients. The dough also lacked any complexity and tasted like flour. Again the best way to describe is just a step above freezer food. I'm giving 3 star average since the place looked pretty clean and the staff was friendly and pretty fast with the order. 2 Stars for the food 4 Stars on the service 3 Stars for the price read more

If I could rate this place as zero stars, I would. Ordered lunch today for delivery by phone. Turkey sub with specifically communicated condiments, but not mayo, since I can't eat it. Sub was delivered, slathered in mayo. Called back to ask to have it rectified, since the sub I had was one I physically could not eat. Got two different stories about why the wrong order was apparently "my fault" - (1) the turkey sub comes standard with mayo (though apparently not with anything else, and mind you, the menu simply says, "turkey sub"); and (2) then, from another person, it must have been communicated by phone that I wanted mayo, which is why they put it on there. Clearly, neither story matched. I was told that I could drive over to have the sub fixed, which was not a possibility, since I didn't have time sufficient in my lunch period by this point to make the ride. So I had no lunch today and went hungry, and also gave Nick's ten bucks for a sub I couldn't eat. I happen to like turkey subs, and am not new to ordering. Reputable places don't add condiments randomly to subs without asking, and they also take responsibility for their errors. Logical people who cannot ingest mayo wouldn't order it on purpose. Essentially, Nick's made a mistake, blamed me, took my money and left me with no lunch. After work, I went to D'Agostino's for the turkey sub I wanted. For two dollars more than the money I threw out the window for a lunch I couldn't have from Nick's, I got a fresh-made sub with the condiments I wanted in speedy time and with much more high-quality cold cuts. I would recommend Nick's to positively no one. Buyer beware: if they mess up your order, you'll be out your money and left with food you either can't or don't want to eat. read more

Stopped here for lunch while working in the area. Got one slice of cheese and a bottle of water for $5. Slice seemed like it had been sitting under a warmer for a while; overcooked crust and dry cheese. Surprisingly the slice wasn't very warm. You probably want to opt for a full pizza or a sub to get something made-to-order. Regardless, I'm trying somewhere else next time I'm in town. read more

Food is so good! They are super quick and efficient with their service. The sweet and spicy chicken and ranch pizza is amazing! I highly recommend this place for your next pizza order! read more

This has become my new go-to place for delivery/takeout. They blow every other place in the area out of the water. Their food is really good quality. Even their burgers are great, which can be hit or miss when it comes to takeout. I highly recommend their steak and cheese and calzones. And, if you order fries, they will actually arrive crunchy, not soggy! My husband and I are both huge fans. read more

They've screwed up my order honestly almost every time I've been in here, and I just had the last straw. I sat inside waiting for 30 minutes after calling an order and watched them screw up 3 separate orders. Literally every single person that got their food had something wrong with it. Finally after debating I went up to the counter to ask about my food only to be handed a package that had been sitting there almost the entire time. Fine things happen, however I got food poisoning! I've never felt so sick in my entire life. The place is so dirty and gross so it doesn't really surprise me. I can deal with bad service but I can't afford to take time off work because I'm deathly ill. read more

Your run of the mill pizza / sub shop with sub standard food. Nothing really worth getting except for pizza and that's even questionable. Food is just thrown together with little care or attention to detail. Flavoring is typical frozen prepared foods. Surprisingly the items on the menu are pretty expensive. Service is not at all quick be prepared to wait even if you call ahead, often times people working don't even have a clue of what's going on. I've only been there a handful of times and yet to have a pleasant experience. Maybe they are trying to tell me something... read more

This is our go to take out place in Lexington for 25+ years. The chicken kebab salad are to dye for. The honey tip sub is delicious and you can never go wrong with his steak and cheese. In fast paced place and the employees are very welcoming and so polite. What a pleasant friendly atmosphere to grab a quick bite! read more

Cheese bread seems to be the local flavor in Lexington. My last round pizza order (over 2 years ago) from Nick's did not do much to change my mind. I once ordered an Italian sub and found it lacking in meat ( I have started to make my own). Fries are generally good. My kids like the chicken fingers and the party tray I ordered 5 - 10 years ago was pretty good. This place is hit or miss, but a big step up from the nearby Domino's. read more

I love this place.We order take out every friday and food is always tasty.They make it so good.Wraps salads and subs, everything.

Poorly managed. Staff isn't very bright. I ordered a gyro and the dimwit at the register ordered me a dinner that I hadn't ordered. I told her that I don't want the dinner, just the gyro, she asked me if I wanted bread with it. I said no, just the gyro. I get home and all they gave me was the meat, no gyro. I called them to complain and told them to deliver me what I ordered. The manager was rude and told me I was wrong and the delivery will take awhile, then he hung up on me. The food delivery never showed up. I had spent $41.00 there that night. I'll never go back there again. Don't bother with these morons. read more

Disgusting. Every single table was dirty. There was food on the floor under almost every booth. The patron or two who were seated at tables eating were at tables that were clearly soiled by multiple previous customers. The napkin dispensers on at least two tables were covered in condiment spatter and saucey fingerprints. It was 94 degrees outside and they only had ceiling fans on inside. It literally was pushing 100 inside. One of the patrons went up to the counter to compliment the staff on how good the steak tips were and the guy and the girl behind the counter barely acknowledged him. The girl said nothing and the guy said "uh huh". If the staff's cruddy mood was because of the lack of AC then maybe you should do something about it. If the staff doesnt care about or at least REPLY TO positive customer feedback then theres a problem. If your restaurant is fukn disgusting and youre not cleaning, its a problem. The grilled chicken kebob actually tasted really good. Too bad I only wanted to inhale just enough of it to no longer be hungry and get the hell out of there! Plus they didnt drain off the grill grease from the chicken before putting it in the wrap so my sandwich was just dripping. FAIL. If you want to eat in a dirty filthy sweaty greenhouse where the staff doesn't seem to care about anything, go right ahead. read more

What is happening to Nick's? We usually rave about Nick's to everyone as the best pizza around -BUT the last two weeks have been so disappointing. Pizza is extremely well done and gross. We are so sad! read more

I have seen people make food with their bare hands and then lick them. Also, the chicken wings I had from there made me sick to my stomach. They taste like they have been sitting out for days. SO GROSS!!! The only thing Id get is the breakfast sandwich read more

Wow, no reviews? Good beef especially when the place is cranking as opposed to quiet (kind of like getting Guinness at a place that pulls hundreds of pints a day versus only a few). The regular beef is more then enough for most people. The steak and chicken kabobs are also very good. Pizza is typical Greek style. Only complaint would be service can be brusque but as I've stated over and again for good, cheap, order at the counter food I can deal with that read more

This is the best pizza shop! You can download a app called SLICED and Nick Place takes orders from there They also have subs and salads I love the Pasta Chicken Alfredo I'm picky about ordering that dish since a lot of ppl cannot make it right. Nicks does a great jobThe customer service has always been good to me. I have had issues with a delivery before but they came RIGHT back out to fix it. They are a good group of people. Definitely if you are in town or passing through order a slice you won't regret it. read more

Just tried to order from here. Was told that I couldn't order anything from the grill because they just cleaned it because they close at 10. It was 9:30. Shouldn't you clean the grill at 10? Just lost my business forever. read more

Stopped in quick for lunch today, it was a decent sized Buffalo Wrap that I ordered. My friend got the Steak Bomb, both were good. Nothing crazy to rave about but it's a good stop for lunch and something quick. read more

Fine food but poor service. I'd ordered here plenty of times but moving forward will be going with more customer friendly business in Lexington like Mario's on Mass Ave and Alexanders on Bedford Street. When There was some confusion with a delivery recently the manager offered to have the driver return my tip or give me a credit but wouldn't comp a menu item. When Marios got my order wrong they told me my next visit was on the house. Simple gestures go a long way when it comes to retaining loyal customers but Nick's failure to appreciate this has landed a long time customer into the arms of a local competitor. read more

The roast beef there is unreal... just not a big fan of the pizza.

Wow! I went to Nick's place for the first time today and after a long, hard, day at work, the food was refreshing. But, the service was impeccable and everyone was so nice and friendly! Especially the girl at the cash register, I felt welcomed and will definitely be coming back. :) read more

Looking for a great place to get lunch? I would definitely suggest to go to Nick's Place in Lexington. They have great salads and sandwiches, and are some excellent pizza. Everyone can find something that they enjoy at Nick's, and nobody will leave unhappy. I love Nicks! read more

I go to Nicks for pizza take out very often. I wouldn't choose to eat there, the seating area isn't very clean and very outdated. Typically they are slow to answer the phone, if they even do but the pizza is decent and it's cheap. One specific time I called and was put on hold multiple times, if the line was busy, finally got through to order my one pizza for pick up..then I got there the line was out the door. Waited for too long, got cut by two impatient customers and once I finally got my pizza, that nobody thanked me for my patience for, it was awful. Slow service, and busy nights affect their quality of service and product. So disappointed and won't be returning anytime soon. read more

It's a good place for a quick decent sub and the usual suspects of fries, rings and other sandwich shop stuff, but I like my pizza with a thin crust. read more

I just ordered from here . The driver said to me next time to be more careful with the address because they don't deliver to where i was . Im sorry but to my understanding if you guys don't deliver to my address then just give me a call and tell me that before to make the trip . Don't come all the way over here and embarrassed my self in front of people telling me to be more careful next time . ( I still came out with a tip on my hand) soo disappointed read more

My favorite pizza place in Lexington. I love that whenever I call here to order I never experience a rude employee. I feel like some places you call make you feel like you are inconveniencing them and have you repeat over and over again what you'd like. Lol for me it's the little things!! They deliver which is a huge plus! They have the best honey bbq steak tip salad! read more

We have been regulars for a long time. The chicken kabob is salad is famous. We can not say enough great things about the food and Nick.

Good food and friendly staff. Family friendly. We came in to sit and there were a few tables. Next time we'll probably do takeout as it's more of a takeout place. read more
