Nick's Tuscan Grill - Mineola

Arrived on Tuesday night for dinner and were the only ones in the restaurant for some time. The staff was pleasant and attentive. Our meals came out quite quickly as there were very few cartridges. The food was very tasteful and everyone at my party enjoyed their meals!

With a group. The food was great. Portions were plentiful. Appropriate prices. Good service. Was back a few weeks later with another couple. They loved it too.

We sat right away. Restaurant had nice crowd for a Tuesday night. Started with hot antipasto. Great serving hot delicious. My wife had Veal parmigiana who enjoyed seeing. I had covered salmon specifically with baby shrimp and crab meat. EXCELLENT! The wine was offered as our meal at a reasonable price. Did not get the name of the waitress, but she was also EXCELLENT! Would definitely recommend NICK'S TUSCAN GRILL!

We enjoyed the food very much. But the service was missing. The hostess was overtaken to sit over us, and the server, while pleasant, was inattentive. It took an hour to get to our main course and then another 10 minutes to get the attention of the server so we could get grated cheese. One of the dishes just came out as we asked not to come out. While eating at Nick's is really good, it's not worth it.

We were seated within 10 minutes of our reservation time, things were downhill from there. The service was so slow that it took more than an hour for us to get our meal. The menu states that they have gluten free options, however the staff needs to be trained on what gluten free is. Not just the front of the house, but the kitchen staff as well. Two of us have a gluten allergy the server we had told us she didn't know anything about it didn't care she was to busy. We knew that we were going to have a problem. The first dish I ordered was a simple beet goat cheese salad, well the cheese was breaded fried, first thing to go back. The main courses arrived, my fish was dry tasteless, the pasta dish arrived when asked if it was gluten free the server had no idea, went back to the kitchen to check. One request was lite on the sauce, I guess they didn't understand because it was drowning in sauce, as was the chicken franchise . The filet mignon was ordered medium rare, sauce on the side, it was delivered covered in sauce medium well. I guess we will not be going back to Nick's anytime soon.
