    "Big Baby Double Cheese Burger Meal"
    Ramone P.

    This spot is one of the go to's if your looking for a good restaurant in Alsip, Illinois. This restaurant has good food with speedy service, and their eating area is very clean. My favorites from their menu is the Fish sandwich meal, Steak Burger meal, Gyro meal, and the Chicken on Pita sandwich. I also suggest foodies to get a side of BBQ sauce to go with your fries. I will be going back to try other items on their menu. So I recommend people to checkout this restaurant.

    Out near Alsip and hunger pains began, not to familiar with the area (currently) found the regular fast food chains, decided on Nicky'! Place had a Chicago south side vibe! They offered the regular fast food Greek style food (will try their half chicken next time) went with my favorite Gyro's with Fries. Staff was positive & patient, even though I worked it out on Yelp, I was definitely overwhelmed with their selections (they cater too). Gyros was a good choice, meat wasn't dry and sandwich was well balanced with Tzatziki sauce, tomato's & thinly sliced onions. Looking forward to stopping by, again. Cheers & Opah!

    This is normally a place where I can get something quick and enjoy. Not this time . I was so hurt and disappointed and the quality of food I received. Somebody made this and decided to serve it to a paying customer. I will think twice before eating here again.

    Pizza puff, big baby, fries

    I actually dined in here once before back in July but realized I never wrote a review about it. We ordered takeout for lunch yesterday from here, my partner did their 2 big baby special (hamburger with sautéed onions), and I did 2 pizza puffs with an order of fries. We also tried their baklava -- I quickly realized it was too rich for me, and I'm not a big fan of sweets that aren't cake, ice cream, candy or chocolate. The food was tasty, and I believe they gave more than one location in the Chicagoland area. I'd recommend Nicky's to anyone in the area looking for fast food.

    Hot dog and fries they gave me..Cheap A#%$

    Ok . So This is my Second time here.. I usually give Restaurants second chances and then thats it..well, The first time I did order a Gyro... The bread was Flimsey and semi hard.. second time. Which was pretty recent..On June. 4, 2023 saturday evening I tried once more. So I get there and order from the lady at the cash register that had an Attitude already and did not smile at me.. So, that upsetted me because if you are working anf have a bad attutude then do something else for a profession. She took my order which was 2hot dogs and fry.. so i get home ready to eat it andi got barely any Fries which you will see in the photo.I HIGHLY DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE- RUDE, NOT GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND FOR ME. AND VERY CHEAP ON THERE FRIES! TO: THE OWNER... PLEASE TRAIN YOUR STAFF TO SMILE AND BE COURTEOUS TO CUSTOMERS??? THANK YOU. BUT I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!

    Grecian Chicken Dinner with Xtra Grecian Sauce

    Found out about Nicky's from a friend's recommendation and it didn't disappoint! Got two Grecian Chicken dinners with extra Grecian sauce. A ton of food and a nice menu selection when you want a hearty meal that tastes like a homemade meal.

    From the parking lot.

    If you order a chicken breast sandwich you got to pay at least 10 bucks and that doesn't even come with any french fries or anything

    This happened in March of this year. I'm adding it now after having just downloaded the Yelp app…read more I was craving a good grilled cheese sandwich. My husband offered to get me one from Sonic. I've had them before and they're tasty. They make them using Texas toast. So, my husband orders on the app and goes to pick up the food. He said the bag felt a little light so he pulled over thinking maybe they forgot something. When he pulled out what was supposed to be my sandwich, it was smaller than usual. He opened it and found what is pictured. My husband went back through the drive thru and was told they were out of Texas toast and they were out of American cheese. This sandwich appears to be some type of shredded white cheese on a puny little hamburger bun. *Sonic staff took it upon themselves to make an inadequate substitution without asking if we were okay with it. They just put this pathetic sandwich in the bag and handed it to my husband. I'm guessing they were hoping it wouldn't be noticed until he was already home. My husband was so upset that he drove off without asking for a refund. This wasn't the first time this Sonic was a subpar experience, but it was the last. We haven't been back and we have no plans on giving them another chance. *Our issue is solely with this particular Sonic Drive-In. We have never had a bad experience with any of the other locations. We have had several bad experiences with this one.

Burrito Alegre is one of these hole in the wall places that usually isn't busy. Has pretty limited food choices. The prices are okay for this it seems. Be sure to have the correct expectations. It's nothing fancy. This is seriously a bare bones type of place. Has limited options. There's no margaritas or any other alcoholic beverages, so this part about it sucks. It's about $2 for Jarritos. There's also some other kinds of pop. Food is limited. It's about $3 for Chips And Salsa. A lot of the menu is meaty. There's tacos with beef and pork. Even though it's not much it's still okay for a pretty authentic experience. It's located just off Pulaski. They close pretty early so it's not a late night kind of thing.

I went to the restaurant on Saturday May 23rd 2026. 4:30pm. Hours are listed that the business is open from 8AM-5PM. I go into the restaurant and there is a table of people eating and talking. The host comes out and says "we're closed." I inform her that the sign outside is blinking "OPEN", door is unlocked. She says "we're closed" and tosses her hands up in the air. I leave and with a table of customers still inside she follows me and locks the door. So you close at 4:30....with a table of people inside eating. Open til 5PM but somehow you close randomly. This type of behavior isn't the first incident.
