Nicky's seems to be "the" thai place to at least try out in Pittsburgh and it didn't disappoint!
Food: Anytime I go to Thai places, it's so hard to order outside of the pad thai. Most in our group went was thinking the same and got the chicken, shrimp and veggie with varying spice levels. My veggie was FULL of fresh veggies and the sauce was super light and refreshing. Others got the pumpkin curry, chicken teriyaki, wonton soup and all cleaned their plates. Next time I am eager to order other fresh spring rolls, fat noodles and a curry as they all looked so good coming out of the kitchen!
Drinks: BYOB which is always nice. $5 cork fee per wine bottle and 50 cents per beer bottle
Atmosphere: Outdoor patio is great! Covered top and lots of greenery around. Our party of 10 sat comfortably in the back.
Value: $13.75 is quite pricey for pad thai, however, the BYOB helped in keeping the whole cost of the bill down.
