What happened? I have been here three times in three years. First trip had grilled squid and it was so good I've never forgotten it. I also had the chicken pad thai and it was very good. I would have rated it a 4. About 6 months ago I came for lunch on a weekday and it was 'okay' nothing memorable but just fine, probably gotten a 3. I went this past weekend and it was disgusting. The pad thai was cool and the noodles were all stuck in one giant lump. The chicken was barely even in the dish. No wonder the place was practically empty even though it was a Saturday night at dinner time. The waiter was nice, seemed forced but maybe he knows the food is so nasty he was hoping we'd not take it out on him with the tip (which I'd never do). Stick to Nicky's.
