Home style food (I love the hot shots) and next to the bike path. What's not to love? Xenia's a great town to visit. read more

Good food & nice outdoor patio! Usually busy on weekends, but a nice place to visit when in Xenia!

When entering the building it was dark and old (we chose first available and were seated inside) the area was very small but they also have outdoor seating which seemed very busy. The service was great and the menu was very extensive and reasonably priced. Our food was very good. If in the area again we would definitely return. read more

Nick's is one of our favorites. Fish and chips were delicious. Fretboard Trey was a nice amber accompaniment to our meal. We will be back soon! read more

Today was my 13th birthday and we went to Nicks for a nice dinner with my family and a friend. When we walked in we felt completley ignored. My sister almost passed out because of the terrible temperature. All of the workers did not look like they knew what they were doing, and did not seat us or get our order from us for about 45 minutes. Eventually we got tired of waiting and left. Would not suggest. read more

Stopped in on a Friday night. They had a good number of people there waiting to get in. Took over 30 minutes and then we were in. They set up a tent in the parking lot to accommodate more people since the social distancing requirement. No problem there. So we thought, this is ok, but turned it to be very disappointing. The service and food stunk. Slow, and I mean very, very slow service. The burger and gyro were over cooked. I will pass on Nick's again. Amber, the waitress SAS nice thought. Waste of money and time. Lesson learned. read more

Grab a great steak or frog legs I think you'll like the food. They do stay very busy so get there early.

Food was like any typical bar food... fried. They sat me in a round table with the booth seats missing and put chairs where the seat cushions were. Pretty tacky and difficult to get out. read more

We've been to Nicks many times in the last three years. Covid has been hard for everyone. Nick's has a wonderful outside Patio. We enjoy sitting there. The last two visits in the past 30 days have left us waiting almost 40 minutes to get our dinner. While it was nice to sit and enjoy the atmosphere outside, waiting that long for dinner was not part of my planned evening. There seems to be plenty of wait staff. I'm not sure what the kitchen is going through. I know they have a takeout business. I would like to have my dinner a little bit sooner. We will try again another time this summer. Hopefully this issue is only temporary. read more

We have visited here a few times now and each time the service and food has been on point. We have tried the pretzel bites, chicken wings, chicken breast with rice, green beans, and broasted potatoes. All were excellent! We typically visit on Thursday evenings and it is a bit packed. I imagine weekends are a lot busier. read more

We went in today around 4:45 and we ordered our food about 5:05 and waited and waited and waited-- around 6:05 she informed us they had burnt our pizza and was remaking it. She asked if we wanted the kids meals out at that time and we said yes...their meals were all cold but they actually ate most of it. The kids were super antsy by time our pizza came at 6:39 so we just asked for a box. We got to the hotel and the entire bottom of the pizza was burnt. It was such a bad pizza we actually threw it away. I don't think we've ever in our lives thrown out a pizza. So disappointed but we did really like the spinach dip and my Long Island was on point. I'm not sure I would go again. We spent over $80 and didn't even eat our pizza. read more

Best mahi mahi fish tacos I've ever had. Restaurant felt like a locals hang out. TV's for sports. Decent beer selection and reasonable prices. Just what I was looking for. If it was a little nicer inside I'd give it 5 but still a 4.4 read more

Great place! Wonderful food, great drinks, Happy Hour & friendly servers. Been coming here over 36 years! Stop in at least once or twice a week. read more

Nick's Restaurant - Bar area - Pizza Near Me - Xenia, Ohio

The first thing I would like to say is that the Sriracha Bourbon BBQ sauce is a must try. At least get it as a side because it's become one of my top favorite sauces ever. I've eaten both the boneless chicken and the bone-in chicken and I have never been disappointed. The food is adequately priced and the portions are pretty big. This is a local place that's been around for decades and it has become one of my favorite places to come out and relax and watch the game. They have daily drink specials and their staff is very friendly. If you are ever in the area, I would highly recommend coming out to this restaurant. I've eaten here plenty of times and my experiences have always been good and the food has always been great. read more

Nick's Restaurant - 10 breaded wings with sriracha bourbon BBQ sauce and fries - Pizza Near Me - Xenia, Ohio

Good was fresh and hot. Waitress was pleasant and helpful even though she was clearly busy. One half of the building felt like your neighborhood bar while the other seemed nice for a brunch with the family. We will be back. read more

The wings are delicious especially the frog legs and the ice tea I recommend go to eat there.

Don't bother making a reservation. You will still have to wait for the parties who got there before you. Don't waste your time. There's a really good Mexican restaurant down the street-Los Mariachis with no wait! read more

The old gray mare ain't what she used to be. Yes, they expanded seating but the kitchen clearly hasn't expanded. We were told that the wait was 25 mins. Got seated in 30 mins. We had to go outside to get back inside to our table (in the pouring rain). Chairs were soaking wet so we politely asked our neighbors to swap empty seats. Ordered beers and dinner as soon as the waitress arrived. After 70 minutes of waiting for food we stopped the waitress- asked for an update and told her we'd rather leave. She came back and said "burger is done- waiting on wings." TWENTY minutes later-- no food. We flagged her down and way overpaid for our looonnnggg empty beer mugs. On the way out we stopped the owner and politely told him we were leaving to go through the Wendy's drive thru bc they clearly can't accommodate the number of tables they've added. Such a shame. Nick's used to be a local favorite. We will never be back. read more

On an impossibly warm (hot, STICKY!!), early fall afternoon, this was our OASIS after trying to "tough it out" for a few meltingly hot hours at a local festival. Have been wanting to try this place for a while, and last Saturday was the PERFECT opportunity!! We wanted to eat inside, of course, but there was nothing available, due to the heat and the OSU game. THANK GOODNESS we "toughed it out" and went to their outside dining area, where we were seated in the covered portion, which was wonderful (and even... gasp!! slightly breezy!!) We had a perfect view of one of the outside TVs to see the game, a beautiful view of their pond and a portion of the bike path, wonderful hanging plants/flowers, and we were in heaven!! Great service, lots of options on the menu, and never felt rushed, in spite of how busy it soon became. I debated back and forth with my indecisive self, trying to settle on one of their yummy-sounding pizzas, wings, or a burger, but then the fish tacos caught me eye, and I was "hooked!!" They were PERFECT, along with my equally great spinach salad, especially on a crazy hot day. The Mr. went for a steak sandwich with the homemade chips, which he was also quite happy about, UNTIL he was about 3/4 done and discovered (bit into) a good sized shard of (apparently) broken plate. There are two ways people can react to this obviously problematic situation; either blow a gasket, create a HUGE scene, and make life miserable for everyone around you, or what my wonderful guy did... OF COURSE, he brought it to the waitress' attention, and she apologized profusely (not her fault, really...) and brought the rest of the sandwich in to the kitchen to show the cook. Accidents happen, luckily he didn't bite down hard enough to break a tooth or cause some other major damage. They asked if he wanted another sandwich, which he didn't, as he was almost done (and, admittedly, a bit freaked about the shard. They took the sandwich off our bill, apologized profusely again and again, and we all "saved the drama fo' yo mama!!" Unless there's a HUUUUUUGE, blatant, non-fixable issue, it just isn't my/our style to raise a ruckus, be a p.i.t.a, and make the wait staff (and everyone around you) wish they were at the dentist office getting a triple root canal.... YES, there are plenty of issues that NEED TO BE ADDRESSED (and that, in part, is why YELP exists...) but you're not a two year old, and even when you were, did those roll-on-the floor and scream bloody murder tantrums REALLY get you anywhere?!? Take a huuuuuuuuuge breath, enjoy a morning, afternoon, or evening out, give NICK'S a try, and remember, life's too short for tantrums.... read more

We love this local pub. I'm vegan. Their is a beyond burger you can order that's not on the menu. Great beer on tap

The service was good, this place would be super if the food was as good. I had the fish and chips. I didn't realize that it came with potato chips instead of French fry "chips". I got 3 pollack fillets, but they were thin an read more

They squeezed us in when we missed the call for our table. Everyone was friendly and the food was acceptable. Nothing stood out to make me want to come back again but if you're looking for a nice family restaurant for burgers and such this is a good place to go. read more

Great food, great service and well managed. Owner cares about his business and keeps involved.

It has a great atmosphere but the food and very poor service along with the uncaring manager makes for an awful experience. It's the only bar pub restaurant in area which therefore creates a need and waiting list for a table But saved your money and stomach read more

Really great ambiance, what food items I selected from the menu has been absolutely delicious. The service has been amazing. Even when there packed or short handed. They all worked together to take care of their customers. read more

We went on Derby day this past weekend. We knew there would be a wait but we got here late enough that the crowds were gone and we were seated immediately. The service was good for these times. The food was all fried and ok. Nachos plate is small. Wings are very good. Burger was ok. I would give it higher but sitting outside we had to endure everyone's cigarette smoke. There shouldn't be anyone smoking where people have to work and/or eat but they even have ashtrays on the tables so I guess this rule doesn't apply in Xenia. read more

Best Restaurant in Xenia! Prices have gone up since Covid, but what hasn't! I recommend the wings. We hat them naked with on the fence sauce (just spicy enough- NOT hot). Mushrooms are also great. Recommend the blue cheese dressing for the wings and both cocktail sauce and ranch dressing for the mushrooms. Wash it all down with their sangria- either white or red both are delicious! Also VERY dog friendly! read more

Loved Nicks. The nachos were delicious and I also shared the Rueben and Cuban sandwich with my lunch mate. This was the first visit but won't be the last. read more

Not worth the hype. Service was courteous, but inattentive. The food was decently priced, but the food quality was below average and half of our orders were incorrect. Will not be going back for a second visit. read more

Really good chips and wings- tried three flavors of naked wings, all delicious. Great blue cheese dressing and mixed drinks were very tasty. They were very crowded and we had to wait about an hour for a table, but it was worth the wait. read more

We have not been here for a few years. It is a Thursday at 4:00 pm. Stopped in for an early supper. It took a while for the waitress to take our food order. And then, it took 45 minutes to get our food (Swiss burger and Fish Tacos). We just had water and a cola- no refills. The wait staff was standing around and complaining about who was taking the golf ladies table or the 3rd Thursday group. We could hear it all and I'm sure other customers heard it also. Very unprofessional. The food was ok tasting. The Fish Taco was room temp and the lettuce was not fresh. The Swiss Burger tasted Ok but didn't get the mayo we had requested. If the wait staff was better then the experience of course would have been better. Maybe it'll be a few more years till we try it again read more

Newly remodeled patio on the bike path is one of most unique places in Ohio for drinks, brunch or dinner. Wish I could give them 6 stars! read more

Great atmosphere - restaurant itself is pretty small. Had a "20 min wait" at 2pm on a Saturday, but got in much quicker. Place was crowded but appeared clean. Men's restroom is small and even though it appears to allow more than on person at a time there is truly only room for one. Food: good portions and food was pretty good. I had the pulled pork quesadilla - amazing . Also tried the Chicken Tortilla Soup. That is my go to soup. I didn't care for it here and didn't even finish. Only had a couple bites. There was more a sweet than Spicy flavor. Price: was decent - $40 for family of 4. Totally recommend and would have it again. read more

Nick's Restaurant - Pulled Port Quesadilla - Pizza Near Me - Xenia, Ohio

I enjoyed this place in college and during a visit to the area it was so satisfying to be able to taste the wings I loved back in the good ole days! It's a small quaint place, but they pack the heat and the taste! I so recommend it if you're ever in the area! Sweet hot damn wings are my go to and that's what I recommend! read more

Nick's Restaurant - Sweet hot damn 10 piece - Pizza Near Me - Xenia, Ohio

We usually like this place but yesterday when we stopped by we ordered a pizza. It looked good but there was no pizza sauce. We were going to tell our waitress but she was zooming around and we could not get her attention. Salad was good and the olive dressing was yummy. Could have used double the dressing. Drinks were great. read more

The food and service are amazing. The atmosphere, a bit loud and boisterous for my liking. If you are looking for a place which requires you to shout in order for your dinner companion(s) to hear you, this is fine! read more

Went to Nick's Restaurant in Xenia tonight. Not overly busy so we got a patio table rather quickly (less than 5 minutes). Ordered the sampler. Unfortunately, the onion rings and chicken chunks were cold. The cheese cubes and UPO's (potato slices) were hot and good. No seasoning on the onion rings which was rather disappointing. Hubby got the steak sandwich (not pictured) and I got the Bite of the Nick burger. Both were hot but again, the fries lacked any seasoning and were lukewarm. Service was slow, but I'm not complaining about it. Didn't live up to the expectations of what I've heard about them. read more

This is a very nice hidden gem. It is very busy at dinner so if you're in a hurry don't bother. You can get 50 wings for $47.99. I recommend Nick's dry rub. Teriyaki is pretty sweet and tangy. Asian cajun was not very flavorful. Their bbq sauce is also great. The sampler includes a lot but we got ours cold because we had to wait for onion rings so the potato skins weren't great. The cheese sticks are pretty good. The cocktail sauce had so much horseradish it burned my nostrils. This place is definitely worth trying. read more

This is a new little dive. I went here with some coworkers and really enjoyed my meal. The outdoor seating is super nice as well
