The food here never disappoints. I recommend making a reservation if you go for dinner because it's always packed. Sometimes it takes awhile to be seated, but it wasn't that bad of a wait. I highly recommend this iconic restaurant.

We really enjoyed our dining experience last night. This is my favorite place for BBQ. I got the loaded baked potato with pulled pork. My husband got the chicken sandwich. He said the sandwich was excellent. My loaded baked potato was delicious and perfectly prepared. We sat in silence for a moment just savoring the food. This food was so good. We ate mindfully and felt grateful. The server was great, too. Cozy atmosphere. We did not get dessert, but I looked at the menu. I want to go back five times now just to try the desserts one-by-one.

The Smitty’s experience starts and ends with the very friendly gent handling valet parking. With a reservation, we received the patio table near the fireplace that i requested. Our server, Hunter was friendly efficient and attentive. My wife had soup and salad while i had the pot pie. Soup and pie were served very hot and quite delicious. We finished splitting the key lime pie that was very tasty.

I had a pretty good experience at the Terrace, it reminded me of restaurants in different areas of the world, such as Italy, and especially parts of France. I felt comfortable. I sat outside and enjoyed, and I sell it with my big sister and staff appear to be attentive. I’m flying back to France this weekend with great memories of my experience at the Terrace today.

I haven't been there in years and will say the food was excellent. Service was good until later on and then we were sort of ignored. However, my experience was overall great and I'll be back. I had the steak sandwich and side salad and I was impressed by both.

    First time at NICKS. I had a tale of four and the service was immediate and consistent. Professional and courteous with a little humor. The food exceeded expectations and the margarita was spot on. We will return soon. Cheers.
