Great place with great drinks. I had the shrimp and grit cakes. The grits were a bit too salty for me, but the shrimp and gravy were amazing.

The food simply wasn’t very good. I had the brisket Mac and Cheese, which was supposed to have a pimento cheese blend topped with smoked brisket, panko breadcrumbs, shredded cheddar and a bbq drizzle. I didn’t see any bread crumbs and I’m pretty sure the bbq sauce was simply Rays BBQ from the grocery store. My wife got the Whiskey Citrus Salmon and it was tough and dry.

This was our 2nd visit, and once again Nic and Norman's exceeded our expectations. Great atmosphere in a historic Louisville location. The service was outstanding and our drinks and food were excellent. I had the Beef Medallions and my wife the Meatloaf. Both dishes were beautifully arranged and perfectly prepared. We can't wait to return soon!

Our waiter Karrion (I hope I spelled that correctly) was very pleasant and the hostess who checked us in was as well. Great booth for our reservation and we were seated a little early as the restaurant was filling up after an event and we were 20 minutes early. Very nice of them to do. The appetizers and burgers were great, but the flatbread could have been crispier. We would return if we lived closer!
Nic & Normans - LouisvilleResponded on 24 December 2024
Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the warm hospitality from your server and our team, as well as your booth and appetizers. We appreciate your feedback about the flatbread and will share it with our kitchen team to keep improving. We’re so glad you had a great experience overall, and we’d love to welcome you back anytime you’re in the area!

I didn’t care for the location. The outside needs lighting including the restaurant sign or logo.
Nic & Normans - LouisvilleResponded on 16 December 2024
Thank you for your feedback! We do have outdoor lighting, and a sign located above our door, but we’ll certainly review your comments to see how we can make them more noticeable and welcoming. We appreciate your input and hope you’ll visit us again soon!

We had 5:45 pm reservations and ordered drinks at the bar (for 2 of us)and got a table for our party of 6. We were seated and never had a waiter/waitress come take our order. We went up to the bar 2x and then the girl who was working the bar brought us our drinks and she wound up taking our order. Then our food came at 6:35 pm and my husband’s came out 5-8 minutes later. My daughter in law and I got the margarita pizza and we couldn’t even eat it because it was so loaded with garlic- we left most of it. We had a show at 7pm was very rushed. I had been there 2 weeks ago for another group and the wait was just as bad but thought I’d give it another try thinking they would’ve improved but last night was worst than the first. I’m not one to send bad reviews since I work in the service industry but thought you should know.
