Nicky's Steakhouse - ESTES PARK

We celebrated our 34th high-time day and they made them very special at night.

Nicky had a wonderful ambiente, eating and service.

Poor nicky’s was overwhelmed on Valentine’s Day; the server tried their best, but the kitchen was only so secured, had to wait about an hour for our eating. we have composed some drinks for our waiting period, owners are very nice and accommodating, but the place was simply not ready for the big amount. I have been coming to her credit for 20 years at every presidential weekend after the estes and have never seen so many people in the city, seemed twice as normal. my filet was perfectly cooked, like most dishes at our table. trout was a bit dry. ambiente is great with piano and kamin. we will return as we always do.

It was a busy night on Valentines weekend and they were totally under staffed. We love Nicky’s and have been going for years for the amazing food. It has recently been purchased by a new owner who is said he plans to change the menu etc. We are hoping that the negative experience we had was not an example of things to come with this Estes staple

I wish I had paid attention to the previous reviews. We were seated promptly at our reservation room... and that was the highlight of the evening. The waiter was less than thrilled at doing his job, was seldom around, while excess wait staff appeared to be performing their duties with enthusiasm. The soup and salad were prompt after the order but the the meal lagged way to long after. When it arrived we were advised that the steak serving plates were extremely hot. Unfortunately the both meals were less than an acceptable serving temperature. The butter on my potato actually did not melt. I asked for a new one and the replacement lacked temperature. At this point we finished our meal. We were never asked how our meal was, if we enjoyed ourselves, not even a thank you. I would not recommend this restaurant as an acceptable steak house in Estes Park.
