What diners say

“Excellent dinner all around! The asparagus fries, spinach dip, and ribeye sandwich (definitely enough for two) were all fantastic. The Mai Tai done Nick’s way was good just not the way I typically like a mai tai. James, our server, was awesome—attentive, friendly, and made the whole experience even better. I’ll definitely be back!”

“I've been to Nicks but this Newport location really elevates the food and service to the next level. It was Kirby our server that provided what I recall to be one of the most friendly and professional service in recent memory to date; she made everything exceptionally memorable. - best ribeye melt in town hands down - simply incredible flavours - recommend the tomatoes as the side.”

“Excellent food, service & atmosphere! It was my first time here and my friends 2nd time! They loved it & loved their server Kayli. When we were seated they saw her and asked if we can get her for the night. We were so lucky & had the best service! Kayli really loves her job & really loves to take care of people. The food was amazing. I got the Bistro Plate which included a petite filet, petite bistro salad & a cup of tomato bisque soup. We also had the Cha Cha Spicy Rigatoni and the special Chipotle Meatloaf, my friend had last time and was so happy they had it again. I wish my photo wasn't blurry. Everything came out perfect! We will definitely be back and will definitley request Kayli!”

“The food was actually very good, but unfortunately the reservation system and front desk service completely overshadowed the experience. We had a 7:45 PM reservation and arrived at 7:42 PM, yet we weren’t seated until around 8:15 PM. After we’d already been waiting for quite a while, the host offered us seats at an already crowded bar. Reading the room would have helped—we had clearly booked a table and had already been waiting far past our reservation time. We declined, and, unsurprisingly, a table became available just a few minutes later. It honestly felt like they were hoping we’d settle for the bar instead of honoring our reservation. Great food, but the front-of-house operation needs serious improvement.”
