It was a nice change of scenery. I was super hungry, but the Italian hit the spot. The cigar "after" dinner is my preference. There's a lot left to try on the menu and Lance our waiter/bartender was great. The old fashion was just so so, but the Bordeaux with dinner was really nice. Great wine list. read more

I had been to Nick's Restaurante several times and enjoyed the service food and atmosphere. In the last year I hadn't been able to really go out and enjoy a nice meal. I wanted the experience I had always had so I asked my boyfriend to take my for my birthday. The waiter was very slow and inattentive. It was so smokey I got a headache. The food was okay nothing like previous times and definitely not worth the price. It's also a bit of a distance to get to. When I said something to the waiter about how long it was taking...he responded smartly by saying this isn't a quick turn around place. When I told him I had been there before he looked ashamed. Needless to say they lost a customer. I'm assuming they don't care because I emailed them to get no response. read more

The hubs booked a reservation at Nick's for my birthday date night dinner a few years ago, and we've been back for date nights ever since!! From the unassuming outside, you wouldn't know that Nick's has (IMHO) some of the most delicious and authentic chicken Parmesan I've ever had, or one of the tenderest, juiciest, flavorful bone-in ribeyes cooked to perfection you can glide your knife through! But the step through the door of Nick's to discover the cozy and comfortable ambiance, and I love how it feels like you're stepping into an exclusive speakeasy! The waitstaff is attentive, personable, and professional, the food is beyond amazing, and if you're looking to have a nice, quiet and intimate experience, book reservations at Nick's!! They have an executive chef and the specials rotate often between delicious beef dishes, seafood, pastas and more! There is a beautiful cigar bar attached for the cigar aficionados (but smoking not allowed in the main dining room!). Give Nick's a call (reservations encouraged) for a date night, special occasion, or just because! You will NOT be disappointed!! read more

Great as usual. A little attitude from our server when I asked a question about the special. Was kinda odd and arrogant, but didn't ruin the evening. read more

Finally ate here for our anniversary. I called in a reservation several weeks ago. One thing I find odd is that they have a smoking and non smoking section. I'm not sure how they really get away with that now days. They have a lot going on their menu. I also noticed they had card son tables for anniversaries, but forgot ours. They did bring one after we mentioned it. They have a bar, but didn't have a cocktail menu. They do a have decent wine list. We started with the cheese stuffed meatball appetizer. It came out and they weren't hot. There also wasn't a lot of cheese inside. I don't think I'd get that again. For the entree, I got the small filet with the daily risotto and a spring salad. I wasn't disappointed. That was great! My husband got the duck and loved it. We didn't have time for dessert because we had to leave to make it to a show, but hopefully we can try some next time. Their bathrooms are super cute and they even had mints by the sink. read more

I've lived in Huntsville 17 years, last night was the first time trying Nick's. What have I been doing? The filet melted in my mouth, and was cooked to perfection, roasted veggies were awesome, and the dessert great too. I can't wait to try it on a regular night! Thanks for making our night special! read more

This is one of those places that thinks that charging $50 for a steak, it automatically makes them a five star restaurant. They are not. Far from it. The food is mediocre at best and the service is shoddy. You'll have a much more enjoyable time (and the food and service will be better) at Bonefish Grill, Connor's, or Amerigo. read more

Awesome food service we are regulars. We go every special occasion and they have a way of making it special. read more

Nick's Ristorante - Italian Near Me - Huntsville, Alabama

Absolutely amazing place. Service is always top notch, environment is always classy, clean and inviting. To say the food is always amazing would be an understatement. I always get the bone in ribeye with a crab leg with risotto and it never disappoints. Might be a little pricy but well worth the few extra dollars you will spend for a quality night out with someone you care about. read more

Took my mom there while she was in town visiting. They were gracious enough to find us a reservation on late notice for Friday night. The food was fantastic. The lamb, pumpkin swordfish and steak all were great. One thing to note however is that they have a smoking section on one side of the restaurant and while it's not too bad you definitely can smell the smoke. read more

We are partial to Nick's as our go to restaurant for a nice evening out as the food is consistently good, the service very attentive and the wine list fairly priced, although we will admit that we usually bring our own wine and pay the corkage fee. Nick's is just the perfect small restaurant atmosphere that gives you the feeling of being welcomed, that you are truly a guest and that they want you to enjoy the evening. The steaks are great, but we usually default to Italian when we go. You can't go wrong either way. Definitely one of the better choices for a night out in Huntsville. Another plus for us, but something perhaps not for others is that they do not allow children. read more

Great food and owner came to our table and gave us a free dessert because it was our anniversary.

Age requirement at a restaurant is kind of odd. I get it not everyone wants to be around kids, but not everyone has a babysitter for their 4 month old. Food looks good, place looks nice, hope to try it one day. Maybe they'll consider doing a family night. read more

Hey what can I say that hasn't already been said the food is exceptionally horrible.Service was not prepared t all not even recognizes customers. read more

Nice atmosphere with great fresh bread and really good steaks. People have complained about cigar smoke, but I didn't smell any whatsoever.

Excellent service. They remember your name and take time to personalize your experience. Excellent food. Best in Huntsville!

We have been coming here for many years to celebrate special occasions. While there is a formal dining room, we prefer the bar tables where we can enjoy their frequent live entertainment. We love the bruschetta and goat cheese fondue for appetizers and the steak entrees. Be aware that the bar is smoking but has a good smoke scrubber system so it is tolerable for us. read more

Well, once again I have to against popular option. I dined at Nick's hoping for a great steak and I got a steak.. that was barley OK... OK I love the atmosphere, the ability to enjoy a cigar before or after dinner, the service was great, no issues with staff or anyone working at Nick's. If I was just rating the service and atmosphere it would be a 5 star rating for sure. But, I am rating them on the food as well.... I had the bone in ribeye , Caesar salad (which was a 3 dollar up charge. I would have agreed to it regardless, but I was not told ) and baked potato... The steak was cooked to perfection, the potato was excellent the salad was good... but back to the steak... more grizzle and fat than I was expecting for such a cut of meat and the price. The flavor was lacking. So the steak, the main reason I tried Nick's, was not all that good. I am hoping that I was just unlucky and got a bad cut that night. I do want to go back and try their Italian and Seafood offerings and maybe even another steak.... I am hoping they are as good as everyone else has rated them. read more

Again this is one of those places that I really want to love but they just keep being underwhelming. The food has always been good, really good, in fact but the experience has always been, um, not great. At first I just hated the fact that they were smoking, no judgment but I just don't want to go home smelling like it but YMMV. They have fixed the issues that they had with one part of the restaurant being smoking and the other non smoking so I was pleased and looking forward to another visit. We went with 2 other folks and got there early so I ordered a drink and waited for our buddies to get there to order food. After glancing at the menu I knew what I wanted as a snack with cocktails but the waiter had other ideas. "No I'm sorry ma'am our chef wants the entire order at once FOR YOUR DINING PLEASURE ". Well I'm sorry, I just want to order my cocktail, bottle of wine and appetizer now. Oh, you INSIST that I order my dinner right now as well? Fine, I'll just have my appetizer as my dinner. Oh, you don't like that answer? Well then don't freaking rush me! "But it's to better serve you" he said, "so that you don't have to wait and get behind the other tables as they order. That way your dinner comes out quickly!" Welllllll, I looked around at the other THREE tables in the dining room, 8 people in total, and told him I thought we could chance being in the back of the line foodwise. When he dropped of my steak tartare that I had the audacity to order before I had decided on my whole order, he sniffed down his nose and said, "You'll never guess what is on top of the steak tartare. I've never had anyone know and I've been working here for years." I knew before I even tasted it and he looked just crestfallen when I told him what it is. I don't know if it's a power trip with this guy, if he's just a giant jackass, a complete misogynist or just wants to be home for the 8 o'clock news but he thinks he's all that AND a bag of chips but I will walk out if I'm treated this way again! As far as the food went it was wonderful but even the best chef can't make up for a jerk of a waiter. No, seriously, the food was excellent and I thanked the chef as we left. We'll come back because my buddy loves the place but if I'm treated as if I'm there for the waitstaff again I'm paying for my drink and leaving. read more

Been going to Nicks for years. Best steak in town, friendly staff, romantic atmosphere & great deals throughout the week.

Veal marsala was great, as was the service. Good ambiance. All that being said, I couldn't get past the strong cigar smell. Probably won't be back for that reason. read more

I love Nick's. Always a great dinning experience. Warm atmosphere. Terrific staff. Delicious food, soup to nuts. read more

We eat here once a month for date night and I love the ambiance, the service is by far the most hospitable and the food is always fresh and perfectly cooked! read more

Steak and drinks were really good. Bar is fun. Locals kind of place. Been around forever. Family owned business which I like.

Good food! Over priced. Quiet until large loud group came in this small Resturant. I loved the ambience but doubt we will return due to smokey smell. Sad. Perhaps they should convert the cigar room into a private large gathering space for groups. read more

We've visited Nick's on several occasions. It is always delicious food and great service. Highly recommended to all who love great steaks and good times. read more

Best restaurant in Huntsville! Every single thing I have ever eaten there has been great.
