If you want the ""regular"" Italian food consisting of some type of pasta slopped over with some variety of red sauce and cheese then they have that, but if you really want something really outstanding, get the Pistachio Chicken. I have eaten at Nick's many times, and that chicken dish (it's huge) is by far one of the top 10 absolute best meals I have ever had at any Italian eatery including Carrabbas, Mickelangelo's, LaStrada and others. The shrimp and pasta are outstanding too, but they scrimp on the shrimp a little for my appetite. The outdoor fountain and patio, combined with soft lighting creates a nice ambiance after dark. Nick's is a really good place to impress a date without trying to be impressive - especially if they order the Pistachio Chicken.
Pros: Pistachio Chicken, Staff not snooty, Right Prices
Cons: Slow tea/water refill, Waiters not Italian, Scrimp on shrimp
