“ short blonde was very professional, friendly and made sure my drink was to my liking. large brunette focused on one customer and I believe may have been flashing him. obviously looking for tips and then some. she was disgusting ”
“ The staff is always attentive, and the food is phenomenal. Their fried pickles are the best! The Captain Crunch chicken is amazing. As good as Planet Hollywood's, if not better! Everything we've had has been amazing! ”
“ I have so many memories in this place. Loves lost, glances stolen, long nights of drunken conversations after working an awful shift at the Applebee's just down the street while I was in community college. There is no place like Nick's. It isn't amazingly easy on the eyes. It's a big place, a bit aged. Usually, they have 3 servers covering the whole place, and a bartender. The bartop itself is pretty small. The main area though, is massive. Booths, high tops, and small tables. They show just about any sporting event, including UFC (this can be tough to catch in that area). If it is a Pay Per View Event they will likely charge a cover, but rarely over $10. If you are a regular they sometimes allow you in without paying. The menu is a true mix of bar food. When I lived over there, and was going about 3x weekly, they did a menu change and got rid of the Capn Crunch Tenders. I had never had these, but it became true anarchy among customers. I heard more than 1 waitress get cussed out over that. When I returned for the first time in years for that Dallas Playoff game in 2019, seemingly they were back on the menu. The boneless wings are really tenders, and I recall them being delicious back in my meat eating days. The fried pickles were always good, but the mozz sticks always stole the show for me. They fairly recently added a pool hall area with more booths and TVs. If you sit back here just bear in mind that your server likely has to sprint to get to you because she bas tables everywhere. However, the waitress that most recently took care of me was amazing with this. Certainly worth checking out this Rowlett institution! ”
“ Way better food than expected at a sports bar! When the local sports bar failed to deliver the Mayweather fight, I turned to Nick's. For only $20 cover; they had the fight, fantastic food, abd tons of pretty waittresses. Not that I noticed the pretty girls (IJS). The food here is 100% better than found in most sports bars; ranging from loaded fries and wings, to legit steaks, and a burger with fried egg that rivalled any restaurant - anywhere! Quality food in every sense of the words. Good drink specials varied nightly, but the $4 premium shots were a staple. My double vodka Red Bulls were large, strong, and frequent. Friendly bartenders did not push, but served every request quickly. Clean restrooms, plenty of parking, booths and tables - plus ample TV screens. Sports Bars are not my fave, but I loved this one - I'll be back. ”
