Kudos to Nick's for bringing some much needed character/class to an area overflowing with chains and fast food. The restaurant itself is in a historic old movie theater that has been converted into a very nice space with seating, a bar and an open kitchen. A huge projector screen remains and there are usually older classic films playing which creates a nice ambiance for dining. The food is great. The menu offers some really delicious choices. Above average appetizers, creative burgers, fresh salads with really good homemade dressing, steaks and prime rib etc. Everything i have tried has been impressive. So impressive that id still eat here if they didn't offer amazing specials like:
Half price apps 5-7 everyday. (This is how ive sampled most of the appetizer menu)
Half price burgers every Mon.
$12.99 prime rib dinner on Sundays.
Bogo apps all day Tuesday.
Half prices entrees for your entire birthday month.
Various $3 draft specials.
Wednesday night is movie night featuring a film and free popcorn.
These specials just mean i can go more often:) . I like to visit on Sundays and get the prime rib and a half priced appetizer or two. I always leave very full and happy. I cant say enough good things about this place. There is nothing else like Nick's in town. Not even in Charlotte. Overall the concept, the food, the adorableness of the old theater makes this a total win on every level. If your in the area, skip the chains and go to Nick's you will be happy you did.
