Nick's Pizza Pub, Elgin IL - May 9

Rating - 9.84

If you don't have a GREAT time here something is wrong......peanuts in the shell that you can drop on the floor, EXCELLENT SERVICE (thanks Ally).....an excellent "kid friendly" environment and awesome pizza and apps!!

The atmosphere is GREAT, its built like a giant lodge with a large fireplace in the middle. Large waiting area, long bar with a some tables through some double doors, and a HUGE seating area on the main floor (tables up stars and outside). The place is HUGE.

We arrived around 4:30 on Mothers Day (Sunday) and had a quick drink in the bar while they got our table for 10 ready......it took only a few minutes. Were seated in the back at a long table and got excellent/friendly service from Ally. Apps were up quickly - kids loved the mozz sticks, I ordered the beer nuggets (new to the menu) and they were not very good - just chunks for pizza dough that can be dipped in cheese (small cup of cheese - not enough).

We ordered 2 large and 1 medium for the 7 adults and 3 kids and had just enough.....few extra slices of the veggie. It didn't take long to arrive (maybe 20 minutes) and is very good. I am stuffed!

Check arrived right after we axed for it, and you cant beat the price!

Great family place, can't wait to go back.
