Review Summary

Nickels Deli & Bar shows a mix of strong points and drawbacks in these reviews, with the food often described as delicious and the prices reasonable and some service experiences praised for being fast and attentive, yet several issues temper the overall impression. The smoked meat is frequently highlighted as a major plus, but guests report inconsistencies in preparation such as requests for doneness not being followed, incorrect toppings on some orders, and occasional longer service times. Portions are said to have been reduced this May, and bread quality is a common gripe, including rye slices that are too small or sandwich bread that dries out and breaks apart. Other annoyances include a dirty coffee cup, a fruit fly problem, and limited beverage options. Despite the negatives, there are indications that the kitchen can deliver excellent meals and good value, suggesting that improvements in consistency and order accuracy could elevate the overall experience.View restaurant profile
