We've heard rave reviews about Nick's so of course we had to try it. Wow, that's all I can say. EXCELLENT service, the food was serioudly to die for, especially the mushroom soup. I had probably the best Chilean Sea Bass I've ever had in my life....just melted in my mouth. The portions were surprisingly big - I didn't expect... More

Great for lunch or dinner in a great town. Nick the owner/chef is a great personality. You will not be disappointed.

Went for an evening meal and the food and service were amazing. I had the pork and it honestly is one of the best meals I have eaten. Lots of parking around Los Gatos and we sat outside which was nice actually as it seemed a bit quieter and calmer than inside. It has the heating elements so you don't... More

Haven't been to the new location (a jinx if you ask me) but the old location was very warm, hopefully he recreated this at new location. Food is always outstanding, a little on the rich side. Wines by the glass and bottle are outstanding. Nick usually makes his way through the dining room at some point and spends a minute... More

3 gals hit the town on a Wednesday night and had a great time. One had scallops, one had a seafood stew, and one of us had pork. All of us enjoyed the food immensely! We ate on the patio at sunset and it was beautiful as well as outstanding food. I would heartily recommend nick's!

This is one of my favorite restaurants ...period. I know people come to the restaurant from out of town. In Mid January they closed this restaurant and combined it with their other restaurant, Nick's Next Door. The food there is great too, but I digress... They no longer serve lunch... Of this I am very sad... Just thought you guys... More

Probably our 4th visit in the last two years, this is the restaurant we'd eat at every week if we could. Tables are a little crowded and it can be a bit noisy, but it feels like home. The food is superb and we've never had a bad experience (who knew pork bellies were so good?). The service is good... More

This is actually a review of Nick's Next Door. You know you are probably off to a good start when the first person you see when you walk in the door is Nick, himself, who greets you and seats you for your 8 PM reservation on a Friday night even though the place was packed including the outdoor seating area...
