I rarely give 5 stars and I gave Nicky's 5 before which I think I'll have to take back. Still love the food here, but I think in the future I may opt for different options Thai options unless I'm already downtown. My most recent time here, I tried the Tiger Cry beef (really tiny portion even for an appetizer), the samosas, the spicy eggplant tofu, red curry, pad Thai, and pad phet beef. Everything was delicious, but Nicky's pad Thai definitely used to be much better. They also used to do a 1-10 scale for spicyness which I preferred much more to the current 1-5 scale. I also had the hot tea that had bourbon in it which was good and pretty well worth the $10 it was since I got about 3 cups of tea out of it. Overall, I think I'd opt for Noodlehead over Nicky's, even though their selection is lower...I just don't think Nicky's is the absolute best anymore.
