Had a great time at Nicks. The band Sound Waves was awesome. Great mixture of music genera and crowd interaction. Everyone there, locals, and 1st timer's like us had a great time. The dance floor table services was great , 2-3 servers taking care of business all night. Highly recommended. We'll be back.

It's been awhile since we've eaten here. We were party of ten with a reservation for dinner Friday night. Once everyone arrived we were seated in the dining room. We had two servers - Mike & Jim. They were very friendly and very attentive. A couple in our group frequents the restaurant and suggested the garlic bread for the table. So we had two orders. Hubby & I had cocktails earlier at the bar so we skipped drinks at the dinner table. For dinner: * hubby got the prime rib dinner plate - a very generous slice; medium rare. I had a couple bites. I thought it was needed to be aged more. And seasoned more. * I got the combo seafood platter. Very generous offering. Calamari, two types of fish, breaded shrimp, and fries. I took most of it home. There was no separate checks. It took awhile to calculate how much each couple owed. After dinner we shifted over to the lounge where there was a live band. Lots of dancing on a very roomy dance floor. We parked on the street even though they've got a big parking lot. And we caught a gorgeous sunset.

Friday night and Nick's is jumping. Celebrations and live music. Drinks are strong and the crab sandwich fabulous. Order a half sandwich and it is more than enough. Plus then you have some room for dessert. Our waiter Jim has worked at Nick's forever. He is the best, funny and on top of everything. I swear he had everyone laughing.

Excellent food. Beautiful location, fresh seafood right on the beach. Love the owners and staff too!

I went here even though I live nearby. I wanted to check it out as the ocean view is lovely and I had never been before. I ordered the fish and chips and they were excellent. The fish seemed very fresh and flaky, yet firm. The pieces of fish were huge and it's making me hungry again just writing it here. Service was nice. There was an hour wait so we went and put our names on the list, and when we came back in 45 minutes, they recognized me and sat us earlier than expected. Food came out quickly and water was refreshed often. The waitress was very nice. A person in my group ordered the hot turkey sandwich, which I helped them finish, and it was also very tasty. While the place is a bit pricey and the wait is long, sometimes it's fun pretending to be a tourist (this is why it's 4 star instead of 5). I'd go back here someday, ideally with people from out of town on a nice sunny day. Theres also a dispensary and a beautiful view right around the corner, which is how we spent the hour wait. Made the food even better. I also hear they have live music here sometimes, so I'll need to come back to check that out.

What a cool place! Very old school in a good way. The staff's super friendly and laid back. We came in to order crab sandwiches to go (steps away, you can sit and maybe see whales). The crab sandwich is experience. I was a little shocked by the price (2-sandwiches and 2-ice teas were about $90). However, when you combine the whole experience, I felt it was worth it. The sandwiches come with a side. This was the best crab sandwich I've had. To me, normally, crab sandwiches are a little too rich (and excessively oily). Not the case here. The crab was super fresh, lightly dressed and plenty of it. The addition of tomato was perfect. I think the cheese and/or avocado would have distracted - make it too rich. The sourdough bread's fantastic. If you're looking for a fun, tasty time, come to Nick's.

Always a crowd pleaser! Make reservations and be prepared to wait a little bit. It's OK, it's such a great environment. Team members, food, drinks, music, and of course the sunsets. The calming sound of the beach you might even be able to see whales during this time of year. We celebrated my daughters birthday. We had all ages and everyone was happy with their food and service.

We have been here because of the view, but the food is also pretty good We've been here on a Sunday evening. We had to wait 40 minutes for a table for four. Next time, I will make a reservation. Usually when you wait this long, you would be disappointed nevertheless, but this restaurant is good The staff are very nice, and they tried to accommodate the baby by bringing painting paper and crayons, and the baby was happy. The crap sandwich was special, Hence the name: Nick's crab sandwich. They don't have a price for it in the menu, for us it costed $38. I am glad I ordered that. The combo platter and fish and chips was a bit boring if you ask me, nevertheless cooked beautifully. Overall, I definitely go there again, and will order a lot of crab sandwiches
