Absolutely loved the steak (filet), the sides and the atmosphere. Only issue was that it was a bit difficult to hear each other and the waiter at times. More

Food was incredible and the service was very nice. Friendly, upbeat waitstaff. Seared scallops were incredible. The BEST part is sitting out on their patio on a late afternoon/early evening on Friday. The people watching is the BEST! You'll sit and drink and enjoy for hours! More

First and foremost the food was fantastic, but we didn't make a reservation and had to wait 2 hours for a table, the steak is really pushed hard... expensive but nice. More

It is a high-end steakhouse, but they seem to be trying to base their prices on being trendy and hip rather than food or service. This is a great place for the see and be seen crowd, but not for someone who is looking for a good dining experience. More

A co-worker and I chose Nick & Sam's based on the recommendation of a client - could not have been more disappointed. Our server was near the top of my "rudest server ever" list. He insisted on showing us the meat platter and when neither of us ordered beef, he reprimanded us for not telling him before his spiel. I... More

This has become our staple steak place with each trip to Dallas. The quality of beef is beyond compare. Every detail from sides to dessert are OUTSTANDING! That goes for the service as well. These folks have superior quality and service down to an art. Worth the trip every time. More

Having Savoured some of Australia's best steak restaurants I non chalantly accepted the advice from 2 locals that a trip to Dallas was incomplete without a vist to Nick &Sams. Two un related referees by the way. I arrived impressed by the enthusiastic Sunday evening gathering, sensing immediately that it was locals only. I pulled up a chair in the... More
