Nick & G's Restaurant

"My wife and I love this place. We had our wedding rehearsal dinner here. We have been back as often as we can. Their Brussel sprouts are amazing, calamari was fresh and melt in your mouth. Their short rib is always amazing. The prawn pasta is delicous, the peas in it are an awesome touch. Their drinks are great and always mixed well. The butterscotch pudding and creme Brule are always our go to desserts. This place is great for date night or just a nice dinner at a nice location."

"It felt like we were driving through the neighborhood in Rancho Santa Fe but when we reached the restaurant it was super cute. We were a group of 8 and we had requested outside seating. While they have a cute and cozy little patio, we were given a table kind of far down the side walk, by the intersection. The hostess was not friendly when I asked about alternate seating, maybe inside the restaurant. But then a minute later when my friend asked again, we were given the perfect corner seating inside the restaurant. And from that moment on, the whole experience was absolutely wonderful. We had the best service I have ever experienced. Our server was super friendly, attentive and most helpful. The spicy Rancho margarita, flower child and barrel aged Manhattan were all delicious. The bell pepper and goat cheese flatbread, crispy Brussels sprouts and fried calamari steak were yummy! And so were all our salads/entrees… antipasto salad, Belgian endive and Asian pear, the filet mignon, sea bass (fresh catch), chicken Alfredo without chicken, soup of the day. The restaurant was very accommodating of vegetarian diets and were willing to make certain menu items vegetarian. We were celebrating two milestone birthdays and they brought out free desserts with candles on top of what we ordered. Yummiest crème brûlée and bread pudding and carrot cake and brownies. What a wonderful evening it was! This restaurant is a great find and we will definitely visit again."

"Looking for an upscale date night destination? Well Nick & G’s is worthy of your consideration. The food was good, as was the ambiance and service. @nickandgs typically offers live music on Saturday nights, so plan accordingly if that appeals to you. Our Review Team had only positives to share about their “Meatballs di Formaggio”appetizer, “Grilled Chicken Alfredo” and “Summer Vegetable Risotto” entrees, and “Profiteroles” and “Butterscotch Bread Pudding” desserts. While our meals weren’t inexpensive, our final bill was less than expected. Although this portion of Rancho Santa Fe is quite conducive to strolling with your someone special, keep in mind that RSF tends to roll up their sidewalks pretty early so factor that into your plans. And that’s…Henry’s Take. @henrystake"

"It was solid all the way around - food, service, and atmosphere.....but..... I was hoping for a little "more". I can get flatbreads, "crispy" brussel sprouts, and risotto anywhere. Don't get me wrong - everything we tried tasted REALLY good, but nothing was unique. Nick and G's has the location. It has the vibe. It has the client base. There's a need for something awesome. Go out on a limb. Get creative. Change things up. Take a chance and take us for a ride."

"Good American restaurant in the middle of rancho Santa Fe. There is a bar with love music but the dining room is quiet. Food is very good and I enjoyed my seafood pasta. The bed pudding was good too"
