Visited on a recommendation for a Sunday evening roast. Weren't disappointed, choice of four meats with all the trimmings and a fantastic desert. Make sure you are hungry!

We shared an outside table with good friends on the restaurant's awning covered patio on a perfect summer evening before heading two doors down the street for a production at the Chester Playhouse. Great choice for a pre-theater night out or other special occasions, but be prepared for the corresponding bill, too. My only thought was that it would have... More

Nicki's has the best food in Chester. Whether seafood or meat, the preparations are always very good to excellent. We have been there at least 10 times in the past 3 years and the food and service has been consistent. The dining room can get very loud so in summer opt for the outside deck which is much quieter (although... More

We went for Thanksgiving Dinner, but it is always busy. Nicki is a great chef! There's also a B&B above the restaurant and it's 3 doors down to the Playhouse - great theatre!

Wow! Make sure you have a reservation or you may not get it. Service is wonderful, fast, delightful staff! Food is amazing.....and comes with little waiting. On Sunday nights they only have "carving"...you get a choice of two: beef, lamb, pork or chicken and with it comes piles of potatoes with gravy and oven roasted vegetables....plus...(just when you think you...

Nicki's Inn is THE place on the South Shore if you want class, elegance AND great food. I have eaten at some VERY highly rated places around the world and Nicki's is right up there with them. It isn't a large place, and it can get quite noisy. The outdoor seating is nice although we generally sit indoors (my father... More

This is a small restaurant with outdoor seating available when the weather is warm (summer). The food is excellent and always cooked exactly as you want. The restaurant can be a little expensive, depending on how much you want to drink and eat but you can pick and choose according to what you want - i.e. have no starter or... More

Nicki's is one of those places you discover and you wonder why you haven't heard more about it - maybe its because the locals would rather keep it to themselves. My husband and I went for our anniversary, on a Wednesday evening in early June and the place was packed! Definately you'll want to make a reservation in advance. My... More
