Nick's is a wonderful place in the heart of Laguna Beach, right across from the beach. You'll need a reservation.Ambiance is crowded and noisy. Hey, it's a popular joint. Booths give you some room.Service is courteous and knowledgeable. Highly rated.The food is very good, and the menu covers a lot of ground. Shrimp taquitos are the start of starters, but Bacon deviled eggs and asparagus fries are great too.The Bistro Plate is a fun sampler type of entree. San Francisco Cioppino is top notch. For a sandwich, give the Prime Rib Dip a go (while it's available each day).Dessert: Warm Butter Cake! A must.House cocktails are tasty. Wine menu isn't very deep or broad, but adequate for what you might want.

My favourite restaurant… when I’m working near here I eat here every night. Staff are all lovely- Dominic always greets me like an old friend and I usually get my favourite table. The menu is simple and steady but everything always perfectly cooked and presented, nice and hot. The new key lime pie is great too.
