    Excellence steak and service. They were sensitive to us wanting a quieter place. Very knowledge about steak and wine. We agreed on the perfect steak. Deserts are imaginative and delicious. Has to be the #1 steak house in Dallas. I will be back!

    Noisy which is to be expected. Super dark. Staff, though attentive, didn’t engage on recommendations. Felt more like being in an expensive and rapid fire “serve it up and get it out” place than a dining experience. Not sure I would go again.

    This was my fourth time at Nick & Sam’s and it truly hits the mark on food quality, service, and ambiance. Where it falls considerably short is the seating/reservation system. Each time I have dined in, I’ve had a reservation and usually always have to wait at least 10-15 mins past my reservation time before being sat. Last night, it was almost 50 minutes of waiting before our table was ready. I understand not being able to control the size of parties that walk-in, or the amount of time each table takes to eat and tab out. But this is a recurring issue and makes me think that they either don’t know how to manage reservations properly or take too many large parties despite having a long list of reservations. The couple next to us had a reservation at 7pm and wasn’t sat until 7:55 pm. Just disappointing considering the price point you pay

    I had the pleasure of celebrating a special promotion at Nick & Sam’s, and it was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. From the moment we arrived, everything about the evening was extraordinary. We started with the caviar service, which set the tone for the night—luxurious, fresh, and impeccably presented. The appetizers were mouthwatering, each one crafted to perfection. For the main courses, we indulged in steaks, chicken, and more, and every single bite was exceptional. The steaks were cooked to perfection, tender, and bursting with flavor, while the chicken was juicy and seasoned flawlessly. One of the most unforgettable highlights of the night was the Cotton Candy Martini. It wasn’t just a drink—it was an experience! The martini arrived with a dramatic flair, complete with dry ice that created an ethereal cloud of bubbling mist around the glass. Watching the cotton candy dissolve as the drink was poured over it was pure magic. The martini itself was perfectly balanced—sweet, playful, and just as delightful to drink as it was to watch. This cocktail alone is worth a trip! The service was impeccable. Our server made us feel celebrated, guiding us through the menu and ensuring our glasses were never empty. They even took the time to congratulate us on the promotion, which made the night feel even more personal and memorable. The atmosphere was lively and upscale, perfect for marking such a milestone. Hands down, this is the best dining experience I’ve ever had, and I can’t wait for another reason to return. Nick & Sam’s is the pinnacle of fine dining in Dallas—unmatched in every way!

    the service was slow our waiter was kinda rude like once he found out we weren’t ordering $80 steaks he was rude to me and my friend but we weren’t really that hungry so why would we order a steak if we weren’t that hungry they serve cheap tabico and call it caviar as a free appetizer

    Coming from out of town we were looking forward to dining. But when you have to wait over an hour and you have a reservation is not ok. Better planning needs to be done and the hosts they have in the front are not the most pleasant. However, the food was great, our server was amazing and management even came and spoke to us.

    After 25 years the place is still packed. Which I guess gives them the right to make you wait 1 hr for your table even with a reservation. The servís was so slow and bad, they forgot to bring us our salad and took 20 min to get our drinks. They brought some complementary appetizers and they included them in our check, which after I asked they took them off. Not that they will miss my business, but with all the other options in Dallas won’t be going back anytime soon.
