    Nickel's Diner is in Rio Rico Az They have a big menu staff…read moreare excellent. Kinda 50's decor. I love this place because they work together well and they give a family atmosphere. They are very busy on weekends.But worth the wait.They have two seating areas and a covered climate controlled patio. The food is always delicious.

    I really wanted to like Nickles Diner because the staff were incredibly friendly and were honestly…read morethe highlight of our visit. Everyone we interacted with was kind, courteous, and tried to be helpful. Unfortunately, the food was very underwhelming. We ordered the burger with mac & cheese, a French dip sandwich, biscuits and gravy, chili cheese fries, zucchini fries, and drinks for two adults and two kids. None of us finished our meals. My son's mac & cheese had a pool of oil underneath it, the biscuits and gravy left a greasy film on the roof of our mouths, the cheese on the chili cheese fries tasted very artificial, and the zucchini fries were slimy. I also found a piece of brown paper in my food. I showed it to the staff, and they apologized. They told me they would remove the meal from the bill and even offered me a cinnamon roll for the inconvenience, which I initially accepted because I appreciated the gesture. However, when I went to pay, I realized they had only discounted the meal by half instead of removing it entirely. At that point, everything kind of fell apart for me. I no longer wanted the cinnamon roll because I was genuinely disappointed with the entire experience. I didn't argue about it because the staff had been very kind, it had already taken quite a while just to pay, and I needed to leave. Another surprise was the pricing. The menu made it seem like the meals came with a side, but we were charged separately for each one. The drinks were around $4 each, even for the kids. Our total came to $73 before the partial discount and was still about $65 afterward. I understand this isn't meant to be gourmet dining, and I'm usually perfectly happy with simple diner food if it tastes good. Unfortunately, this just didn't. It was one of those meals where you leave thinking, "Well, I ate," but not feeling like you actually enjoyed it. For the price, it was especially disappointing. I honestly feel like we could have had a better meal almost anywhere else for less money even somewhere like McDonald's, and I'm not a fan of McDonald's. I truly appreciate how friendly and accommodating the staff were, which is why I'm giving more than one star. I just hope the food quality and value improve because the service deserves better than the food that's being served.

I quickly Noticed how super clean this Italian restaurant was & so were the restrooms. It's a very big restaurant everything is highly organized with attention to details. The atmosphere very warm and friendly. Our hostess greeted us and and sat us down so Kind of her. We looking at our menu, when Bryan approached us, asked if we had any questions. I did , he answered them beautifully! They have so many choices to choose from. They have pastas, soups & salads, appetizers, house traditions, chef's specials, pizzas, hero's, burgers, and desserts! Their price points are spot on and for amount of food it's Amazing !! Our waiter Bryan was very polite, wonderful, kind, caring, sweet, super down to earth. He has this positive energy about himself that really radiates! He is your Shining Star!! His shine never fades!! We ordered Bolognese, and Traditional Cheese 12" with 2 sodas. The dishes are so delicious. Bryan also made sure if we needed anything, he was on it! I would like to Thank the Staff at The Italian Peasant for being so warm & friendly! I would love to especially Thank Bryan for making our visit so memorable! We will definitely be back again! I'll tell all my Family Friends to visit here !

I could not stop looking at this very large table. I wish the employees new the story behind it in terms of age and who made it. Our greeter was friendly and helpful. I enjoy the atmosphere as orange is my favorite color. The pizza with steak was larger than we anticipated and I thought it was even better the next day. My wife enjoyed her half meatball parmigiana sandwich and fries. The place was clean and our server was friendly. I would eat here again.

    What, what, what?…read more Seriously, stop reading this review and go to Brindi's immediately! Wow... We had the sampler platter, which was yum and then some. Crazy delicious Baba ghanoush. (I will share some of the completely pretentious, but true comments circulating at our table.) "I haven't had eggplant this good since Santorini." And the mushrooms. "Diners in Istanbul would be jealous of this dish. I had amazing mushrooms at that fab little place near the Blue Mosque, but these are now my fave stuffed mushrooms in the world." Yeah , Snowbirds, the chicken kebab is healthy and flavorful, but, "The lamb will transport your taste buds." Our desert was a Dubai delight. "The only thing that would make this dish more delightful and decadent would be to dust it with flakes of 24 carat gold." Oh, and the staff is AMAZING We discussed climbing over the fence and pitching a tent in their garden on the way home. Fellow Foodies, Brindi's puts Green Valley on the current gastronomical map of Southern AZ. P.S. Dear Brindi's, have you thought about adding a few weekend brunch items?

It was a nice sunny afternoon so we sat in the outside seating area table with and umbella, a friendly and kind staff. A concise menu, thats very navigable with traditional mediterrean and turkish dishes. Started with the fresh hummus and bread, it was very good and a solid start to our afternoon. The the lamb kebabs seemd in order for lunch, served off skewer in a cast iron skillet, it was good and rich flavors but the lamb was a little tough. Overcooked most likely. The side salad was fresh and well made. The entire staff and owners are kind and gracious, and took good care of us 3.5 Stars rounded up for the kind staff 01159
