    The post-flood Nick's is out of this world! Do yourself a favor and go! It's got great ambiance, a phenomenal staff and delicious food. The "new" Nick's is also a great cold weather hangout!

    The outdoor bar has a comfy atmosphere and is far less crowded than neighboring Sequoia and Tony and Joe's, which is part of the same chain that runs Riverside. Read more

    I was there for a company holiday party so it wasn't a typical experience. The staff was very friendly and the food served at the party was very good. You also have a nice view of the ice rink!

    I came here for lunch and thought the darker toned space looked really great. I had my first Salmon Salad (think Tuna or Chicken Salad) sandwich and I thought it was a nice spin on my favorite fish.

    Great new additions to the dinner menu. Get calamari and edamame to start and then the mahi mahi entree. Can't wait to try the brunch next!

    Go see Father Marek on Saturday and Sunday during a beautiful day! Calamari and nachos never hurt either!

    Definitely get a table on the patio when weather permits. Recommend the salmon plate or the crab cake sandwich

    Happy hour doesn't apply if you sit down at the sunny tables in the waterfront. If you've ordered drinks from the bar and try to sit and order food you'll be kicked out.

    Don't be fooled by the craft beer sounding name of Blue Moon. It is a macro brew from MillerCoors. Have a Sam Adams or Yuengling instead.

    Have to order entrees to sit on the patio. Even when you are one of five tables that are occupied. And brought us the wrong beer.

    Make sure your bartender is Tiba! She will make sure you're on point! Very entertaining as well!

    I believe the food here is the best compared to Tony and Joe's or Sequoia.

    At the outdoor bar, beer on tap on the warm side. Stick to the bottled beers...they're colder.

    Poor management and bad food. We were seated and ordered food then were told to leave b/c they made a mistake and had the table reserved and didn't mean to seat us. Never returning.
