Nicola's Ristorante

Always a great experience at Nicola's. I have visited for personal and work and have always had an amazing meal. I appreciate that they have so many GF options as it is normally very hard to find GF at Italian restaurants! I most recently had the GF Bolognese and one of the seasonal salads. The Bolognese sauce is amazing. My other guests tried some of the other pastas through the "sample" portions - it is amazing they will let you order almost half sizes to be able to sample so many items. All the wine and cocktails are always amazing, I have never had a bad drink here. Overall a 10/10 place and always reccomend coming here !

It had been a long time since we'd been to Nicola's. It will be much longer until we go back.The atmosphere is still superb. The menu is both much more limited and much more expensive. The bread basket is $17 (and not really good). Most items on the menu are extreme haute cuisine. The only item on the menu my husband was even interested in was the steak, which was $72. Prices higher than Jeff Ruby's...and...not as good.We were not in a hurry, out on a leisurely date night, but our server Alex was slow. He kept apologizing for the delays. The table next to us had a different server and she was ON IT. Orders coming out, water refilled, drinks re-ordered. While we waited. And waited. And waited some more.We had a drink in the bar after dinner. There is no place to sit in the bar where freezing air isn't blasting down onto you. Not very enjoyable, though it was relatively quiet.We were planning on an expensive dinner, which we had. But for the price, we expect better service. Not going back anytime soon. I hope this is helpful.

This is an anniversary / birthday restaurant. You're just going to have to reckon with the fact that you are going to be paying in the hundreds for a few small plates. Once you can move past the price point, you can begin to enjoy Nicola. Service is excellent. Top-notch, even. Servers are knowledgeable about the dishes, and tend to your ever need. The ambiance is perfect. It feels classy, yet intimate. It's a date-spot, par excellence. It feels cozy and dim, but never dark. The food, however, is fine. Small plate, nice plating, but nothing that will shake your world. It's good enough for a fancy restaurant, but doesn't exceed expectations in any way. You're not getting good value, but it doesn't taste like every dollar spent.

I was here on a work dinner but this would be a great place to go for date night. - Gluten free options - Dressy - Pricey - Great cocktails - Great serviceA lot of seafood on the menu and my group loved it.

Went to Nicola's for a friend dinner anniversary and it was great. Our server Maddie was really nice and helped with great recommendations! Would love to come back and check out their bolo Monday!

Holy moly, this place is phenomenal. We went to celebrate our anniversary and started our experience with complimentary Prosecco and ended with complimentary dessert. Our waitress was so pleasant and gave great recommendations - PSA you can split your entree into 2 types of pastas if you're undecided!! Such a great experience and we can't wait to come back!

My husband and I went to dinner here to celebrate our upcoming wedding (late review, sorry)! Everyone at Nicola's made us feel so beyond special. Everyone took the time to congratulate us. We received a few freebies in honor of our celebration (which seems to be a hard thing to find or receive these days at most restaurants). We were so happy with our decision to celebrate at Nicola's and cannot wait to be back again.Also, food was AMAZING! Literally everything we ordered was top notch.

This is me and my boyfriend's favorite restaurant. My boyfriend ordered the Lamb Rossini in Crosta and rated 15/10. The service is always excellent here - friendly, personable, and knowledgeable. Our server, Alex, took his time to help us with our wine selection and asked the opinion of the sommelier to ensure we made the best selection to pair with our food. As a vegetarian, I always order the gnocchi, and if I had to eat one thing for the rest of my life it would be the gnocchi from Nicola's. We will always be back, and if you're from out of town, this is a must visit restaurant.

The ambiance, food and service were simply amazing. It's our second visit to an establishment that's been here 27 years. I can't wait to return. I learned that the menu changes with the season and the chef was so willing to accommodate me as a vegan. We both got pasta dishes. Mine had a red sauce and veggies and his had lamb and a meat sauce. I brought half my meal home due to the generous portions. I'm thrilled because I get to enjoy the experience again. Even though I'm vegan I did enjoy a couple bites of the tiramisu dessert. It was most likely the best we've ever had. I highly recommend.

The food was incredible and the staff were excellent. It was the first "fancy" restaurant I've been to in a while where I didn't leave hungry- the portions were actually sufficient for the price. Service was a little slow, even when the restaurant emptied out, but the waitress was very thorough and friendly and did a great job.My partner and I were here to celebrate my birthday; she had called in advance and purchased flowers for the table, which we got to take home in the vase, too. They actually printed menus that said "Happy Birthday, Alexandra" on them, which she wasn't even expecting. It made it feel extra special!My only complaint was not knowing we would be charged for still water- the bottle was $11, which was a rip off. But everything else exceeded our expectations and we would definitely return for another special occasion.
