We were recommended Nick’s Italian Restaurant for a family birthday dinner, and this was our first visit—but it definitely won’t be our last.
From the moment we walked in, the place felt cozy, welcoming, and nicely decorated. Right away, I was impressed with our waitress. Her customer service was truly a step above—attentive, kind, and genuinely caring, which is something you don’t see as often these days.
Before coming, I looked over the menu online and saw they had paella. At that point, I stopped reading because I already knew what I was ordering. When it came to the table, it was a huge portion loaded with seafood and chicken—shrimp, clams, mussels, and just the right amount of spice. Honestly, it was one of the best paellas I’ve had outside of the Basque Block in downtown Boise.
Everyone in our family really enjoyed their meals as well, and to top it off, our server surprised us with a tiramisu for the birthday celebration, which was such a thoughtful touch.
This is absolutely a place we’ll be coming back to—even if the only thing I ever order here is the paella. Highly recommend!

Our first time here, and it was nice! Our server was great and the food was good.
However, we spent about $60 on 4 cocktails that were sake based. They do not have a full liquor license and it seems unfair to charge the same price for a cocktail that would have hard alcohol in it. We also ordered the $20 chocolate cake TO GO- which came with gelato- so I checked with our server to make sure it was on the side (just in case it melted by the time we got home). Which she confirmed it was. Getting it to go, I guess I assumed it was going to be in a separate container? Instead we got home and it was melted- all over the teeniest tiniest $20 cake ever!
We heard alot of good things about this restaurant, but unfortunately, we did not see what all the hype was about!

We were very impressed with everything about this place. We actually ate here two weekends back to back. Thanks to Garrett and Chandler for taking such good care of us . The atmosphere was welcoming and the music set a perfect tone to enjoy ourselves. The garlic bread with fresh Ricotta cheese was perfect -best garlic bread anywhere! I had the lasagna and it was melt-in-your-mouth amazing. My wife had the gigantic herb-seasoned chicken breast over Fettuccini Alfredo and I got to eat half of it. Excellent! This might be our new favorite restaurant! We’ll be back soon!

The food was delicious and the service was excellent. The waitress was spot on with her recommendations and was very attentive. We had tuna tartar and the short rib rigatoni, which was fantastic and the pizzas were equally as good. Thank you for such an enjoyable dinner. We will be back! The dessert was as good as it looked!

It was my husband and my first time dining at Nick’s and we can’t wait to go back! From the moment we walked in, to the moment we left, our experience was amazing. Our server, Shawna, was very attentive and friendly. She made us feel like we were the only customers in the restaurant. Although we knew it was quite busy. We will definitely ask for Shawna the next time we dine at Nick’s. The entire staff (hostess, bussers, servers, manager) was collaborative and wonderful . The beer and food were also incredible. We recommend the Scotch beer, the Italian Wedge Salad (chopped), and the Tuscan Chicken Pizza. We will absolutely be back as soon as possible and are looking forward to bringing our family and friends as well.

Came here on a Saturday night. I recommend that you make reservations on a weekend night because it did get very crowded. Nick’s is located in the same shopping center as the Fred Meyer on Chinden and Linder, on the northwest corner, a few door down from the UPS and nail salon.
Inside, there are open ceilings and hard floors, making it very noisy and somewhat difficult to talk. Our hostess was going to seat us near the door, at a high table, but was gracious enough to give us a booth when we asked for it. I suggest you put a request in for a booth when you make your reservation.
Our young female server was very nice, essentially a native Idahoan that lives in Star, the same as the four of us(our CA friends just purchased a home in Star in the subdivision next to us). She gave us good, friendly service. A woman came to check on us also, perhaps the manager? I thought that this was a nice touch.
I had the sausage, pepperoni, and mushroom pizza. My wife had the chicken and walnut salad with French onion soup. Our friends had the paella and something else that I can’t recall. We also had the fried zucchini appetizer.
My pizza reminded me of my time in Italy. I do prefer my crust to be a little crispier, and this was soft and difficult to eat with my hands unless I folded it. Still, it was very good. My wife liked the salad but, even though she knew that French onion soup comes with cheese on top, the soup itself tasted cheesy to her and so she did not finish it. I, on the other hand, thought it was very good and enjoyed the rest. Our friends liked their entrees as well.
We will definitely be back to Nick’s to try something else.

We’ve been to Nick’s before, and have come back a few times – but this time, I will write a review that actually includes all the previous visits. Nick’s is a small restaurant in Eagle island Marketplace that is a tucked away treasure that we love to frequent. We have had many of the dishes, and have never been disappointed. This visit, we had Garlic Bread and Classic Caesar Salad as the appetizer we shared with each other – because we knew the dinner portion sizes are plenty! We usually only eat half and have a treat the next day! For our entrees, we had the Pollo Carcioffi, Short Rib Fettuccine and the Parmesan Crusted Salmon … every one was DELICIOUS! We had drinks and with dinner had a nice Sangiovese wine to complete the meal. Service was on-point and atmosphere is always inviting. We are truly thankful there is a neighborhood Italian restaurant that we can go to that has never disappointed us! Service is always with a smile and all of the servers help each other out … you will feel as though you are part of a larger family that is happy you came to visit. If you like Italian food … real Italian food … you should try it!

We had a wonderful anniversary dinner here. Plan on bringing the rest of the family back – and we will likely try the Sunday brunch as well!

We were so absolutely excited about this place. The food was delicious. I had steak / shrimp, and the portions were huge. Definitely make a reservation. It was busy on a Sunday night.

We have enjoyed Nicks in previous visits, however our last visit was not as expected. * Our waiter was great, the manager not so much which is reflected in star rating*
Our steak was ordered as medium rare, came out well done and was tasteless enough that only maybe $5.00 of a $44.00 steak. Our waiter had stopped by and noticed the error….was amazing and tried to rectify with the manager whom stopped by for a “drive by”.
When the bill came a glass of wine had been taken off, which was nice but surely didn’t cover the steak, the waiter was happy to readdress the complaint with the manager….she came back by and offered to take 50 percent off which we felt was an improvement however in the end overall did not feel that we were taken care of enough to be a return customer.
If the manager had offered straight away to take care of the meal this review would have been very different. I hate doing these reviews but felt it was necessary.
