I recently visited Nick & Sam’s and had a mixed experience. On one hand, the service and food were phenomenal, exceeding my expectations. However, my overall experience was marred by the atmosphere created by other customers, which detracted from the restaurant's previous romantic ambiance. It felt more like a club than a fine dining establishment. This was not the fault of the waitstaff, who were excellent, but rather the way the hostesses dressed and acted, along with the clientele, which lacked class. Taking all these factors into account, I would rate my experience a 3 out of 5 stars.

My husband and I went for Valentine’s Day. Our sever was incredible, he made us feel welcomed and explained the menu very well. The food was great but not life changing and over priced in our opinion. We both had filet mignon with Mac and cheese and fries as our sides. It was crowded and loud because of V-day and our table was very small and unstable. A server mentioned they were rented tables to add more seating for the holiday. Lastly, the valet stole money from our car so we will probably not be back. It was not the upscale experience we hoped for.

The service was not what we expect from Nick and Sam’s. Even worse is we brought friends from out of town and we were slightly embarrassed by the service provided especially after talking you up as one of the top steakhouses in the country. We have been there many times and were very disappointed.

restaurant was extremely loud, can barely get a conversation across and people bumping into you constantly because they’ll just place your table randomly in the middle of a walkway
