The former sets large shrimp atop mixed greens garnished with hard-boiled egg, tomato wedges, pickled corn and okra. The latter is a huge plate of baby spinach leaves replete with julienne apples, toasted pecans, bacon bits and wafer-thin purple onion rounds, tossed in a light balsamic vinaigrette. The cold pasta salad changes daily and is always a contender. All sandwiches are served with fries. House salad accompanies all entrees but soup may be substituted.
Fries are usually the starch, but when garlic mashed potatoes are offered they are scrumptious.
Desserts at Nick's are some of the best in the Metro area. From the lightest raspberry sorbet that has ever tempted your taste buds through chocolate crepes and white chocolate mousse to the southern-style bread pudding, they're all top notch. Enough variety is found in the eight or so selections to provide a special dessert for everyone. Every meal we have ever eaten at Nick's has been excellent.
