Yikes.... some harsh reviews for a location that JUST opened!!! Hopefully people will give them a second chance, because Nicky's in Mount Nebo could be good - especially with how well their other locations do!
I have no idea what this building used to be before they remodeled, but Nicky's newest location is still so fresh, you can still smell the reconstruction of it when you walk in! It is clean and beautifully decorated with gem tone & gold décor and has a really pretty outdoor patio. I came here last Monday with my dad for lunch - it is conveniently located to our office, just 10 minutes away.
There were only a few other tables occupied, but I noticed during our lunch that a few people came in to place takeout orders with the hostess. Maybe because the phones are not yet working, as other reviews might suggest.
I ordered the Phad See Eaw with veggies at a spice level 3. My dad ordered [cant remember the name but it was] the one under the Phad See Eaw with thin noodles in a garlic sauce at a spice level 3. Lunch comes with either soup or salad. I chose the soup (chicken rice) and Dad had the salad. Both were good.
Our food was good. Mine better than his. His had zero spice. Mine was making me sweat. Slightly inconsistent. Large portions for the lunch price. I like their Pad Thai so I would probably order that next time. Both meals came with one of their amazing crab rangoon.
Our service wasn't bad, our waiter was pretty dry and monotonous, but he took care of us. Two things, though: the lights - not sure if they had a short - but were flickering on and off the entire time and also....the music. It needs to be turned down or the selection needs changed because both of our heads were banging by the time we left!
I'd like to come back once they have a few kinks figured out because i think this location has great potential - plus I'd love to sit on the patio next time!
