Nick's Italian

I have been to Nicks before and had a good experience, but the last one was unfortunately not the case. We made a reservation before we came and waited 15 min before a drink order was taken. Then we ordered our food and waited over an hour to get our entrees. Another table of the same size party arrived, ate, and left before we got our food. The waitress, Carly, did not apologize for or acknowledge the delay or check to see if we wanted more to drink while we were waiting for the hour. After we got our food, the waitress never checked to see if everything turned out ok. We spent over 2 hours at the restaurant total.

The food was honestly not good. It genuinely tasted no better than a Stouffers oven baked meal bought at the grocery store. They are extremely overpriced for such bland and below average food. The waitress was very kind though and she is the only reason I gave 2 stars instead of 1. If you have ever had Italian food other than Olive Garden and especially outside of Colorado you know what it should taste like and this place wasn't even close.

Excellent experience for a place wedged somehow between fast casual and old school home Italian food. The service was attentive but just enough so. The food was delicious, without a doubt. The ACG pasta was super flavorful but not oppressive. The burger was superlative. The beer was cold. Good job, all around.
