Wow wow wow, Nico’s is definitely one of my new favorite Mexican places in the cities. The service was casual but extremely good, with our server/host being exceptionally kind while also providing recommendations as myself and my partner had been open that it was our first time there. We ended up each getting a themed drink (the whole placed was dolled up in pink for Valentine’s day, complete with a Valentine’s themed drink menu!) which was a bit pricy and honestly probably not something I’d order again, but the classic marg is a great option for happy hour nevertheless. But the tacos, ohhhhh the tacos. By far the best I’ve ever had. I personally recommend the Calamari Taco, it was so delicious I had to ask for another one. I had tried a couple other tacos including a chipotle taco with shrimp and a chipotle chicken taco, which were also delicious. My partner had tried an assorted mushroom taco, as well as a couple others featuring shrimp and scallops, and loved every single one she had! The building and the area itself are also beautiful, securing Nico’s as wonderful location for both a quick lunch, a nice date, or just getting drinks and some food after work. My only warning is to be prepared to spend 40-50$ per person (including tip) if everyone is ordering a drink and 3 tacos.

The Christmas pop up was so much fun!
The food was excellent and authentic. We live in Minnesota and finding authentic Mexican food is not always easy. We often go to the same spots. This spot is one we will keep coming too. The salsas we full of flavor. The chilequiles were on point and the corn tortillas smelled and tasted homemade. I love different tequilas and this spot hit with all the drinks!

I have spent a few weeks in Mexico this year and found Nico’s on Resy with great reviews. I must say the food lived up to the hype. Excellent tacos, great service, I will definitely be back again. In fact my son and his wife came with me and already have made reservations with friends to eat at Nicos again on Saturday!

Me & my bestest friend went on a journey to find the best taco place with the best atmosphere & best server. We stumbled upon Nico’s & we just asked our server to get us her favorites. It was unbelievable & we’re going back there forever until the end of time. Sami needs a statue & her own TV show, best server ever. Everyone else was great too, came for the food, stayed for the people

Delicious food, great service, inviting atmosphere!
They easily accommodated our party of 8 with a reservation.
Server was helpful with answering questions. They were particularly helpful with a peanut allergy. Server checked to ensure no peanuts are used. Current selection has pine nuts in one dish, but that’s all. He still noted peanut allergy on our order.
They have a party room available too.

Absolutely amazing service and great food!
My girlfriend and I drove quite a distance just to try their sopes — sadly, they didn’t have them that day, and she was genuinely so disappointed (almost in tears). But our server, Jack M, completely turned the experience around.
He said, “I’ll do everything I can to make up for it
and he truly did. Jack was incredibly kind, attentive, and just made us feel so welcomed. That kind of service sticks with you.✨
I ordered the carne asada and it was absolutely delicious — flavorful, juicy, and perfectly cooked. My friends had the flautas and loved them too.
The only thing I’d mention is the fish plate: one of my friends expected a fillet-style dish with rice and beans, but instead got something more like fish tacos with rice and beans. It tasted fine, but it wasn’t what she expected — unlike the carne asada, which is also a main dish and came as a proper plate, not tacos.
Still, we left full and happy, and we’d definitely come back again. Huge thanks again to Jack, you really made our night. Highly recommend this place for the flavor, great food, refreshing drinks, and solid alcoholic options. Totally worth the visit.

We went here after going to the Raptor Center. It is close. On to the review. My lady and I each had 2 margaritas, and they were great and very tasty. We ordered the chips and corn salsa and 1 taco each. The food was delicious and fresh. I had the Caramon Asado, and Susie had the Pescado taco. They were both delicious. The service was great. I can’t remember our server’s name, but he was great and helped us with his recommendations on the Margaritas. I had the Trouble in Paradise and The Greenway, and Susie had the Strawberry Fields and La Pera. We will go back. We visited the one in St. Anthony Park.

Great Mexican bistro near the Como area. The enchiladas and tacos were great. The Trio with queso, salsa. and guacamole was a great starter. The options of Tacos was great variety. The tacos de Lengua was amazingly tender tongue and one of the best I have had. The carnitas and barbacoa tacos were also very good. The red enchiladas were also delicious. The service was kinda lackluster but just due to short staff during busy lunch time, but server was engaging when came around.
