" I was enchanted by Nico's! The chips and salsa were fresh and crunchy. I had the steak fajitas, and they were tender and incredibly tasty. The margaritas were refreshing and had just the right kick. It felt nice to unwind in such a pleasant space with lovely decorations. Will certainly come back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Nico's for brunch on a Sunday and was impressed by the variety on the menu. I ordered the breakfast tacos, which were lovely, but the scrambled eggs were overcooked. The service staff was friendly but seemed slightly overwhelmed. I would definitely give it another shot as the atmosphere was bright and cheerful. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nico's has become my regular spot for Tex-Mex. The enchiladas with mole sauce are to die for, and their margaritas are a steal during happy hour. Just make sure to go early to avoid the crowds! I've always had a good experience here, often bringing friends who leave just as impressed. It’s a great place for special celebrations as well. " (*Curated Review*)

" A wonderful Tex-Mex experience! Nico's had such lively energy with its colorful decor and friendly server. I ordered the carnitas burrito, and it was delicious! Generous portions and absolutely bursting with juicy flavors. Definitely a place I will recommend to friends and family. Can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great time at Nico's, though I do feel the prices are slightly on the higher side for Tex-Mex. The chicken enchiladas were really good, but the server seemed a bit rushed, leaving me feeling neglected at points. The atmosphere was lively, and I could see it being a great place for larger groups to enjoy a meal together. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly very disappointed. I'd heard good things about Nico’s but was let down. The tacos I ordered were soggy and tasteless. The service was slow, and I didn’t appreciate waiting so long for my food. Overall, the atmosphere was nice but food needs major improvement for me to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a mixed experience. The food at Nico's was decent, but I expected more authentic flavors. My chicken fajitas were tasty, yet not the best I've had. Service was okay but not as attentive as I had hoped. The vibe of the restaurant is nice, and I enjoy the outdoor seating area. " (*Curated Review*)
