    Kevin our server made our experience really great. His recommendations were appreciated and very good. The Kristy rice tuna solo was outstanding. The grilled sea bass was very good, thought it could have used a sauce drizzle, but enjoyed its freshness and wasn’t over cooked. Asparagus fries were also a nice twist.

    Service was not attentive. Had to ask for water and other things many times. Portions was on the smaller side, so not the best value. The garlic spinach was overly salty. Prime rib dip was good, but fries need to be presented in a more generous manner, not like it was half eaten. This place is new in the neighborhood and many people are excited they are here, so they are busy. Once the novelty wears off, for restaurants like this to be sustainable, I would suggest they be generous with their customers, drive consistent good value and taste and service and people will return.

    Nick's was lovely. Our reservation was at 445, after having stopped in before we knew to come early! Service was great, hostess sat us right away and the food was good. Prices are the best I've seen at any restaurant in Newport and so for that, Nick's earns a solid 8+

    I would 100 percent go back. The black and blue mojito was amazing. Presentation and flavor was top notch for every dish.

    Food is good but not great - like upscale bar food Server checked in regularly early in the meal but then seemed to give us too much time as the meal went on Champagne could have been colder especially for $19/glass
