The pumpkin bisque and butternut squash/creme fraiche appetizers were absolutely delicious. The traditional Thanksgiving main course was not only delicious but such generous portions! We both took home "doggie bags". The pumpkin cheesecake and tiramisu deserts were likewise delicious and very ample in size. Staff was attentive but not intrusive as usual. Thanks for a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner!

Nice Matin was great. Went there for Thanksgiving. The food and service was very good and it was reasonably priced. In fact I'd say it was an excellent value. The ambience is very pleasant and the noise level was tolerable, in fact not as bad as I would have expected considering the restaurant was full. Overall it was a very positive experience and I would definitely recommend and return.
