Nick's Restaurant

It's a diner. Nothing fancy. It wants to be a supper club, but it's a dingy diner. Food is okay. If you're going here before a show at the Overture, know that this is nothing more than a diner. Your lady in her heels and little black dressed will not be impressed. If you're looking for some good greasy food at a wood-paneled dive, then you'll love this place. It's all about expectations.

We stopped in for a quick bite before Chen Yun at the Overature last night. Just ordered an appetizer to split.
Kalamata Olives & Feta plate. Came with 2 pita's, sliced into 4 pieces each, 4 slices of cucumber with Roma tomato on top, a small handful of olives, and four chunks of Feta. The entire app was drizzled with EVOO. Not the best EVOO, but what do ya want from a place that's kitchen is about the size of my bathroom?
The olives were outstanding. Some of the best we've had.  The Feta was salty and delish.
All in all, pretty good.

I enjoy everything about this place. Classic feel - like stepping into a time machine set for 50's. Really good lunch menu & fantastic specials. Meatloaf and mashed - out of this world good.  Eat at the bar or big vinyl booth  - enjoyed spot on service and seems owner / family are hands on running the place. Nicks is what many places wish or try too hard to be - only better.
