NICO Kitchen + Bar offers attentive service, but some dishes fall short. The avocado Caprese salad and wings are highlights, while shrimp bruschetta lacks flavor and has limited ingredients. Skillet chicken can be overcooked. The atmosphere is noisy and cold, with inexperienced servers. The beautiful facility is poorly designed, lacking ambiance. However, the restaurant is a favorite local spot in Newark, with many enjoying both lunch and dinner meals with colleagues. The food is consistently fabulous, and planning events there has been described as very easy, with guests anticipating a great time. The restaurant has a very retro feel, offering a warm fireplace-like atmosphere when entering. The menu could use more healthier choices, but the margarita pizza is pretty good and very elegant. The staff, including server Raymond, is professional and fabulous. Meals and drinks are often delicious and plentiful, providing a good bar bite lighter fare experience. Overall, NICO Kitchen + Bar is appreciated for its friendly service and inviting environment, despite some areas needing improvement.
