Romantic dinner location. We ate dinner at Nicolina's on a week night. The food quality was good and the presentation was excellent.
Fully loaded Pizza. Nic's pies are heavy and fully loaded. There sausage is really good and fresh since its made in there New York sausage Co located behind Nic's. I've been coming hear for many years now and have never had a bad pizza. Try a Tina's too much, YUM. There staff is great as well. Try Nic's for the best pizza around.…
awful service.
We had a horrible experience here. Yes it was a Friday night but they weren't packed.
It started by being treated rudely by the young, attitude filled kid at the front and went downhill from there. We were ignored for 10 minutes (no water, silverware, bread or server) and when the bread finally came it was warm on the outside and COLD inside, like it just came out of the freezer. Another couple of minutes before a server came and she acted like we were completely ruining her day be being there.
The oysters came 20 minutes later and were washed -a big no-no. Another 30 minutes after that our entree finally came and one was quite good and the other just horrible. It was a pasta dish with "filet mignon" which was gristly, chewy and quite possibly boiled before being thrown in at the last minute.
No one bothered to ask how our dinner was, we truly saw very little of the server all night.
Add up the time and you see that we were there nearly an hour before dinner which would have been acceptable for a good meal and ambience but the food was bad and the whole place needs a serious upgrade.…
Authentic Italian Food, not you "foo foo variety".
I brought my family, parents, aunt, uncle, and children. The food was wonderful, there was something on the menu for everyone. The service was friendly and efficient, we were NOT treated
differently becaus we had our children with us. This is a wonderful Italian restaurant and the closest thing you get to REAL ITALIAN in the Santa Clara Valley. The tableside cooking was a real plus, it's been years since I had a Caesar salad prepared at the table, this alone made it a MUST fotr future dining. Everyone was very polite and the owner was attentive to every table, HOW LONG HAS IT BEEN SINCE YOU EXPERIENCED THIS!
They have a FANTASTIC Valentine's Day Menu in effect and we will certainly be there!…
What Happened to Nicolino's?.
I have been going there since I work at Auspex in the mid 1990's. The food was the reason you went. Great italian food. Sauage bread was to die for. I took many a customer and date to Nicolino's
and although the atmosphere as kinda of dark and stuffy, the food ruled.
I went there with my family last week and it seems the bad atmosphere is still there but the good food was gone. Every single dish we ordered was bad. The Raviolis were bland and tastless and the sauce was too salty.
The service was horrible. Very slow and they were ticked off because I brought my children. Never again.
Done.…
