Visited Ft. Collins in early May (from NY) and had dinner there with family. I had the chicken parm which was heavily breaded, pounded thin, tasteless, stringy and chewy shoe leather. My sauce had large chunks of onions in it and my wifes lasagna was another venture in "guess what this is?" Someone at another table overheard me bitchin' and said - "you shouda had the pizza"...maybe when you have the munchies this stuff is better!! The wait staff was polite and efficient
Good food, fun atmosphere, great staff, large patio! Carbonara was wonderful. Garlic bread and burger were amazing! Pizza is a bit small for the price.
This is by far my boyfriend and I's favorite spot in Fort Collins! The pizza is so good, has amazing drinks, and the staff is so friendly. Would definitely come here!
If you haven't tried Nick's I suggest you put it on your list. The food came quick and it was delicious. Portions are great. I couldn't eat it all in one setting. It's beautiful inside and the outside dining area match the inside. Very lovely.
I have been to Nicks before and had a good experience, but the last one was unfortunately not the case. We made a reservation before we came and waited 15 min before a drink order was taken. Then we ordered our food and waited over an hour to get our entrees. Another table of the same size party arrived, ate, and left before we got our food. The waitress, Carly, did not apologize for or acknowledge the delay or check to see if we wanted more to drink while we were waiting for the hour. After we got our food, the waitress never checked to see if everything turned out ok. We spent over 2 hours at the restaurant total.
Nick's was better than average food - we had pizza and their fried Mozzarella appetizer. The pizza was very good, the appetizer was fine. The salads were fairly boring but what I would expect for this type of restaurant. 4 star rating is because the food wasn't amazing, and we made a reservation for a booth but when we got there they seated us at a tiny table in the middle of a walkway - next to 2 open booths. When we asked about it, the hostess said "we try our best to fit everyone with what they reserved" but she never really had an answer as to why we couldn't have one of the empty booths.
Our waitress had a great personality and was delightful! She was assisted by other staff, which is a great way to make customers feel well-attended. Pizza was delicious. Salad was soso. Calamari very good. Plan to spend some $$ here, as each thing you order is a la carte, so it quickly adds up.
Started out on a high note with the lady that seated us and got even better when our server came to welcome us. We started with apps, the meatballs and the cauliflower. Both were excellent!!! The polenta served with the meatballs was great. I'm not a fan of polenta but I would order it again at Nicks. Our entrees were very good and we would definitely go again.
The food was honestly not good. It genuinely tasted no better than a Stouffers oven baked meal bought at the grocery store. They are extremely overpriced for such bland and below average food. The waitress was very kind though and she is the only reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1. If you have ever had Italian food other than Olive Garden and especially outside of Colorado you know what it should taste like and this place wasn't even close.
A go to spot in Fort Collins. The local sausage pizza, the burger, Brussel Caesar and the wings are our favorites. Nick and the staff are always great.
