" Nico's is where you go for authentic Mexican food! Every dish I've tried has been exceptional, especially their tamales! Don't skip the horchata, it's the perfect complement to your meal. My kids love it too! It's nice to have a place where you can experience the culture through food. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden treasure on the Southside! I had the huevos rancheros which were delightful and bursting with flavors. The coffee was rich and hot too. A great start to my day. The only downside was the place was a bit small, so it got crowded quickly. Luckily, we went early to beat the rush! " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough positive things about Nico's! The owner greeted us, and you could tell she really cares about her restaurant. The food brings me back to childhood family dinners. My partner said the carne asada was the best she's ever had. We will definitely be back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Strongly recommend Nico's for anyone craving authentic Mexican food! The tacos are an absolute must-try. They truly deliver on flavor and freshness. Service has always been hit or miss depending on the day, but that’s not enough to keep me away. I even took my work colleagues, and we all left happy! " (*Curated Review*)

" This little gem of a restaurant hit the mark! I ordered the menudo and my friend got the puffy tacos. Both dishes tasted so homemade. The flavors were vibrant, and you could tell they used fresh ingredients. I’ve been to various Mexican restaurants and Nico’s really feels authentic! The only thing that could be improved upon is perhaps the seating, it felt a little cramped, but the food made up for it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nico's has been a staple for us for years. Every visit, we find consistency in the quality of their dishes, especially their tacos! The fish tacos are always crispy and flavorful. The wait staff is generally friendly, but I've encountered a couple of rude moments with one of the managing ladies. That aside, it’s always busy, which is a good sign for any restaurant. Just be prepared to wait a bit during peak hours! " (*Curated Review*)

" Nico's is a favorite among friends and family. The atmosphere is always fun, but it can get quite noisy during lunch. The food is always fresh and flavorful, but the service sometimes lags during peak hours. Regardless, the food is incredibly satisfying, and the prices are fair. " (*Curated Review*)
