I sat outside so can't comment on the ambiance too much but seems like a nice place just from my brief glimpse. I will say that the portions are not massive (fish) so if you are looking for something both satiating and cheap, this might not be the place. But if you are just looking for high quality tasty food, then I'd say this place is really great choice!

I am local, but this is one restaurant that has a secret handshake that I'm not aware of--I am very open-minded with service culture, but this place is something else. Waiting 1.5 hours for an incorrect order that tastes awful and looks worse, is not something that will endear me to recommend this establishment to anyone. There are much better restaurants around here; pick anything else but Nick's!

We had to wait a little while for a table, but they had great live music and such a fun atmosphere. I started with the Ringo Rita, which tasted homemade and delicious. I'm pretty sure they use fresh juices in all of their cocktails, and you can definitely tell. Don't leave without trying the Caribbean style wings. They were absolutely amazing, and we all couldn't stop talking about how good they were. They were extremely juicy, and the seasoning had the perfect amount of spice and flavor.

I really wanted to like this place, but it ended up being a disappointing experience overall…read more The one standout was the gumbo. It had a nice kick to it, was full of flavor, and the $10 cup was a generous portion. My partner and I both ordered a cup, and it was easily the best thing we ate. Unfortunately, everything else went downhill. We split the fried redfish basket, and for what it cost, it felt almost criminal. There wasn't a price listed, so getting the bill was a shock (especially because all the other baskets were $30). The fish itself was decent quality, but the breading was heavy, bland, and overwhelmed the redfish. The curly fries were unique, but they left both of us feeling greasy and weighed down afterward. Service was mixed. The hostesses were friendly and welcoming, and our server was pleasant as well, though it felt like there was a strong push to upsell throughout the meal. In the end, two cups of gumbo, one fried fish basket to share, and our total came to $85 including taxes and tip. Considering the quality of the fried basket, the value just wasn't there. If the fish basket alone was around $50, that price is hard to justify. It felt more like a money grab aimed at visitors than a restaurant focused on earning repeat local customers.

Reasonably priced fresh seafood. The Cole Slaw was amazing…read moreand I do not typically eat this out but it was the perfect compliment to our meal. It's not cheap but worth every penny. The service was quick but can take longer if they are extremely busy. Go early!!! A line forms and continues thru the dinner hour. There are two places side by side one serves all steamed seafood and the other spot serves fried, baked/broiled/sauteed. All equally delicious. You order at the counter, and pick up at the steaming place and they bring it to your table at the other place. The indoor seating is limited. Run, don't walk! Go early! BYOB if that's your pleasure. We went there twice in 5 days and I am a food snob. For some reason I was more interested in diving in than taking pictures. Enjoy! This was my second year, we stay at the Beal House Hotel across the street. That's another great story! And.... You are welcome
