We go to Nick's about once a year.  For the most part our experience has been positive.\n\nI tend to order pasta dishes while my wife enjoys the Chicken Parmigiana.  Both could be better and the place can get crazy crowded at times.  The tight space and food reminds me of Giuseppe's on 28th http://www.yelp.com/biz/giuseppes-on-28th-phoenix  Though I like their food better.\n\nSometimes you just don't feel like cooking.  When it comes to Italian food, how many of us want someone else to do it better?  In this department, Nick's is just okay. \n\nThe new management at New York 51 Pizzeria (formerly Redendo's) up the block might have the edge on Nick's. Time will tell.\n\nhttp://www.yelp.com/biz/new-york-51-pizzeria-scottsdale\n\nSorry!
