    We stopped for lunch on a road trip. First time at Nick's. Perfect lunch place. Service was friendly. My wife had a great Greek salad and I had a club sandwich with fries. All good. Restrooms very very clean. Recommend highly.

    A local steadfast and community hub, this sentinel of Madison is open on generators in the roughest of storms. As a kid I canoed here the morning after hurricane Sandy. This is my it pains me to leave this review. The quality of the food is a 0/10, their idea of an omelet with cheese is a Kraft singles plopped on top. Their potatoes are bland as soap and their hash is both from a can and worse than most types of dog food. Their cinnamon toast is Stop and Shop brand, and somehow not even the good kind. Their prices are the same as better quality local options. Service is decent, two staff today, regular rounds, kindly locals. 4/5. Ambiance is 4/5, the old style was a quintessential 70's diner but the son's renovations have brought it to an early 2010's vibe. It has those gray panel floors from HGTV, you know the ones. There are those posters, advertisements, community wall, it's cute. This review is poor because of the food.

    We went to Nicks Place a month ago, we're still talking about the magnificent prime rib dinner we had. The service was excellent as well.

    This is the only breakfast place I'd ever go to- their prices are the best on the shoreline and the eggs are cooked perfectly every time.

    The real Clam Castle is back and better than ever! We've been here twice since the reopening and I…read morecan't wait for a few more visits over the summer. The fried cod was some of the best I've ever had. Fish tacos were very good - love the red pepper remoulade it comes with. French fries and fried clam strips are both excellent - though I agree with another reviewer who mentioned that the clams could be a bit crispier. The two times we've gotten them, they needed just a touch more crunch and golden brown color. Still very good and the best around!!! But feels like they would benefit from a bit more time in the fryer. Glad you're back, Clam Castle!!

    We decided to try a new place for soft-shell crabs this year after seeing several positive…read morerecommendations. The service was quick, friendly, and attentive, and the restaurant had a casual atmosphere with both indoor and outdoor seating, which we appreciated. Unfortunately, the food didn't quite live up to our expectations. The soft-shell crabs tasted good, but the portions were extremely disappointing. The crab itself was so small that it was dwarfed by the romaine lettuce and standard tomato slices on the sandwich. For a dish that's supposed to be the star of the meal, it felt underwhelming. We also ordered the whole belly clams. They were good, but not exceptional, especially considering the price. I personally prefer them a bit crispier, and the batter lacked that crunch. The portion size was average. Our bill for two soft-shell crab sandwiches, one order of fried whole belly clams, and two Diet Cokes came to about $80. I understand that dining out is expensive these days, but the value simply wasn't there for us--particularly when it came to the size of the soft-shell crabs. Overall, the service and atmosphere were positives, but based on the portion sizes and price, I'm not sure we'd return.
