It really pained me to write that 3 star review a month back, but I stayed committed to Nicky's just like Nicky's has stayed committed to good food and service! So after some bumps along the way, I think this downtown location has smoothed things out to run the great business they are! Service this time around was stellar with no complaints!
I just can't stop saying how much I love the space in general. It's gorgeous! Great for a date night or just catching up with your lady friends. Funny enough, it's so dimly lit that the servers will give you a flashlight to read your menu! Hysterical and thoughtful.
I'm really coming into my own with Thai food and was excited to order the Green Curry, as it's my latest obsession (I know, Thai food two days in a row here!). It was fabulous. The spice level is always a little iffy, meaning you never really know what you'll get even when you order the same level every time you come in. I ordered a 5 on the spice scale and got maybe a 6. I know, not that big a deal, but I was definitely reaching for my water glass!
It had loads of veggies mixed with a creamy coconut sauce. I also like that you can order brown rice. This certain brown rice I've never seen before. It's very dark and is actually cooked so that it pretty much has the same texture of white rice. You can still taste the brown rice flavor, but I've never had such fluffy brown rice before.
I have a feeling this place is going to fast become my new downtown go to spot. Add that pending liquor license and you'll compete for my dollars with Meat and Potatoes!
