Our group of four women had an outstanding experience at Nick‘s. Bria was our server and she was so friendly and attentive, and everything we ordered was exceptional (bistro plates and chicken piccata… YUM!). We cleaned our plates and drank every drop of our cocktails! 😄 We were also served some delicious chocolate desserts for our retirement celebration. Things couldn’t have been better, honestly. Thank you so much for making our dining event so festive and fun!

Second time here and I absolutely love this place. Both times here the management has interacted with us to make sure that our experience was up to expectations. The food was absolutely amazing. I am already thinking about what I will be having the next time I come back. And to top it all off… the apple pie! Oh my gosh! Soooo good. Can’t wait to come back. Great ambience and people watching.

WOW… what an incredible experience! Everything was phenomenal, from the appetizers to the main courses. The Beef Wellington was delicious, the Prime Rib was absolutely outstanding, and every bite was better than the last! If you’re visiting Downtown Disney, I HIGHLY recommend giving this place a try! The food, atmosphere, and overall experience were top-notch! A BIG shout out to our waiter Doug! Super knowledgeable about the restaurant and the menu! He had a great sense of humor as well. Great food, great company, and memories made around the table. Doesn’t get much better than that! Cheers!

Sometimes a sequel doesn't work or come near as good as the original ... but in this case it works ... almost like face a facelift and everyone says you look fabulous ... and dinner was fabulous !!

It wasn’t busy and we had a reservation for our party of five. The hostesses were gracious, asking us if we’d like to be seated at their Library table, which was perfect - appropriately lit on the dimmer side, beautifully decorated with amusing Halloween pieces, including some artwork instantly recognizable as from nearby Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion. Waitperson Tony was cordial and attentive, commenting positively on our drink and appetizer selections - an Old Fashioned, a gin drink called a Cat’s Claw, sweet bread and a pork belly dish called Pig Candy. Entrees ranged from Salmon, their self-described #1-chosen Beef Short Rib, a chicken salad and prime rib sandwich which looked like a robust cheesesteak. Everyone in my party said their choices were delicious, and my short rib was tender, tasty and well-complemented by mashed potatoes, cooked carrots and onion straws. I chose the place because I was dining with family and the restaurant occupied the former location of a liquor store where my late brother worked and managed for several years. With some decorations taken from the former liquor store, our dinner at Bosscat served an homage to my brother. I now live in Florida, but everyone at our table said they would return. Sorry, we didn’t take pictures.
