This place is just okay. Need to get over any images one may have from the days of Nick's , which I know I had (busy fish house in late 1990s). The place has aged, but the food was decent and service not bad. Visited on a week night so things were slow (though it is the holiday season). My guess is it's getting trumped by all the "hot new" in Central PHX these days. Go if you really want seafood but it might feel a little like Red Lobster.
