Delicious - that’s the word I’d use if someone asked me to describe this restaurant in one word. I’ve been here three times, and every time, the food has been excellent - everything I’ve ordered has been very tasty.

I love Cioppino 🤌🤌, enjoyed their meatloaf on a cold, rainy day, and was seriously impressed with their California salad, very, very good if you like sweet salads with nuts. Their famous Butternut Cake is also amazing.

I appreciate that Nick’s offers real, healthy food for kids: steak or salmon, just in a smaller portion. I also like friendly service.

As for the atmosphere, it’s not the main focus here. The space is simple, not much decor here, although the lighting is pretty, but i wouldn’t call this restaurant beautiful. If the weather is nice, outdoor seating is a great option, and it’s much cozier there.

Vegetarian options: There are several vegetarian dishes

Kid-friendliness: I love their kids menu: there are options for steak or salmon, but smaller size.

Their cioppino, clam chowder and steak are delicious 😋 outdoor seating could be a little cold so bring a jacket. I've experienced mixed service experiences, with some outdoor staff attentive and kind, but some quite careless. The reception staff has always been nice though, they even provided some drawing boards for kids to spend their time on.

Delicious food. Nice environment. Slightly overpriced likely due to the area it’s in. We had a guava mocktail- super delicious. And a mini mignon & the Cioppino and all was quite delicious.

Always delicious. Cioppino with a yummy broth and buttered herbed sourdough bread. Mouth watering ribeye melt with sweet caramelized onions. Ending with the great butter cake.

We love Nick's Del Mar -- have eaten there many times! Usually the service is awesome; food and drinks are always good. Favorite dishes include: buttermilk fried chicken (serves two as it comes with two full boneless chicken breasts; if we share, we order an additional side of mashed potatoes); Chicken piccata (again, a large portion with two boneless chicken breasts) -- so good! The Chilean sea bass and blackened fish sandwich are favorites as well. I recommend making reservations, but they do take walk-ins.

Best prime rib sandwich I've had in a long time! Literally melted in my mouth. The bread the sandwich is on was so fresh and flavourful, it's mouth watering! Staff was very friendly and met several nice folks sitting at the bar having dinner. Yummm!

The food here is top notch! This place puts a lot of effort into making the best food that I have eaten when going out. A must stop, if you are hungry while visiting One Paseo.

Had dinner with the girls and it was fantastic. Service was impeccable. I judge a Mexican restaurant by the chips and salsa. That is usually a marker for the rest of the menu. We had 3x servings. SO GOOD!! Excellent cocktail menu too.
