We have been to this restaurant about 8 times now . Tonight we brought friends for their 60 th birthday celebrations. As we first entered we were told they no longer take cash . Luckily I had my card on me , which my partner didn’t . We were seated and all of a sudden a girls started singing extremely loud . We couldn’t hear each other speak . After a few songs thankfully they turned her mic down . We were served starters … How disappointing, 2 soggy dishes of onion bahjis . Always been crispy before And the calamari was so tough to chew . Obviously frozen out of packet for £10 wasted . My husband did enjoy his dish of lamb . Mine and my friends butter chicken tbh was ok , way better tasting in my local takeaway . £15 for approx 1/2 chicken breast cut up , some pieces were tough , like cooked for previously and then just thrown in a sauce . The garlic and cheese nan was nice . But how disappointing this restaurant was for us , after hyping it up to friends . I don’t know what has happened but for the amount of money we paid , we felt our local could have cooked it better and fresher ! So disappointing!

Me and my work colleagues came here today for an retirement celebration. There were 16 of us...I believe? Anyway a big table. Service was fantastic! I am so sorry, I didn't take names. But there was an amazing guy who took our food orders.. and then there a was a young guy, who got us drinks and looked after us. The interaction with the table was great. And the food came out quickly, hot and correct. Nothing was too much trouble. We forgot to order a dish and it was ordered and came quickly. Honestly, the best service I've had in a long time..again..so sorry I didn't take your names! There was also a singer in there, everything was perfect, tasty , relaxing and just a great retirement celebration for a very special work colleague of ours x thanks again xx

Food and service from staff was fantastic, however the noise from the table next to us kind of tainted the night for us. Nothing bad on the side of the venue however having a large family leave their kids to their own devices with no restraint can be a little (lot) off putting!

Amazing experience. Originally went for some beers in the sun and decided to stay for food. The food was excellent and flavoursome. They had a live act on too which made the night very relaxing and enjoyable. Louis our server was brilliant and first came to us outside when he noticed our beers getting low and asked if we wanted more drinks to which he then brought them out to us. We then decided to stay for the food and he continued to serve us. A very polite young man and he was exceptional 👌

Nicco breakfast pre match always excellent - just a suggestion that hot drinks served separate to cold ones as member of staff had both and was bumped into and smashed drinks, felt sorry for waitress also took a long time to get replacements however understand it was v busy. The greeter on the desk think his name was Jamie? Went above and beyond for our group he was very helpful- thank you so much

Originally reviewed 02/05/25 elsewhere via a link in a follow up 'reservation feedback' email from the restaurant. ------------------------------------------------------------- This was my first visit to Nicco and my review is in two parts - good and bad. The good bits: An excellent dining experience. The restaurant was lively with early evening diners and there was a great atmosphere in the building. All staff members were friendly, helpful and efficient. Drinks arrived without delay and the menu was clear with some very appealing dishes tempting us. Our choices were delivered to table promptly, looked delicious and tasted even better. Staff members periodically checked that everything was OK but were not overbearing. Additional drinks arrived quickly and nothing was too much trouble. The bill was settled easily (this is a cashless facility) at the end of the evening and we departed very impressed. My 5-star ratings relate to the in-restaurant dining experience. The bad bit: Car parking. Beyond awful. The car park is simply not big enough to reflect the demand for tables and given the location of the restaurant on what is a large business park, there is nowhere for overflow traffic to park. I was eventually able to secure a space, purely by being in the right place at the right time when another guest was leaving but that was down to timing and luck, and I had arrived only a few minutes ahead of my booking time. It took 10-15 minutes from pulling into the car park to walking into the restaurant, which isn't good enough. Seriously, I think Nicco needs to find solutions to this problem because the lack of available parking would be the single biggest inhibitor to me returning to dine here again, particularly as I live outside the city without adequate public transport in my neighbourhood. My colleague who was dining with me had the same poor experience on his arrival. Perhaps Nicco should investigate entering into finding agreements with neighbouring businesses where possible to use their car parks as overspill facilities out of normal business hours. Granted, there might be insurance and other reasons why this might not be possible but it must be worth exploring. I'd be prepared to pay an extra couple of quid as this would be preferable to not being able to park at all and aborting the visit altogether. Alternatively, as in booking a table, perhaps booking a car parking spot could be investigated, although I accept not all patrons attending would book in advance, making this concept difficult to police. In summary, I think without addressing the significant car parking problems, Nicco might become a victim of its own success....which would be a great shame as it is a great dining experience.

We visited last night for our first experience with friends and we were not dissapointed. The warm welcome, our waitress Mercy was so lovely, polite and helpful. Food was amazing!! So tasty and good portion sizes. Plenty of choice on the menu and drinks menu also. Great atmosphere, live music it was quite loud but it was ok as we were not having to shout at each other to talk. The team worked like clockwork all over the restaurant which was very busy. A real credit to the restaurant. Thank you, we will definitely be back..

Service was extremely poor. We were seated at 8.15pm and at this time, the restaurant wasn’t particularly busy. Our server, whilst pleasant, seemed to lack experience. When we asked for a couple of extra minutes to decide on drinks, she looked flummoxed and said “Oh OK.” When our starters came out, one item was missing. No one came to check how our food was in a timely manner, so we couldn’t tell them about the missing item. It was also difficult to catch someone’s eye from where we were seated. Eventually our waitress came to clear the table of our starters (we had finished them a while ago) and asked us whether we wanted to see the dessert menu! At this point, we hadn’t even had the mains. We waited… and waited and waited some more or our food. Nobody approached us and I eventually managed to catch the eye of our waitress and request the bill. As lovely as the mains might have been, it simply wasn’t worth waiting for (if the order had indeed been put through). Our waitress brought the bill and I checked through it - the mains were still on there. I informed the waitress that we hadn’t received our mains - she looked shocked and queried it. At this point, the whole thing was getting ridiculous, especially as the waitress had been the last one to clear our table! She went off, then came back and asked if we would like the mains boxed up to go or taken off the bill. I asked for it to be taken off the bill. She came back and presented us with the bill and then we waited and waited for her to come back with the card reader. Although the food was nice, the service was far too poor and disjointed to be able to recommend this place or return.

I had a fantastic dining experience at Niccos — the food was absolutely delicious, with every dish full of flavour and beautifully presented. What really made the evening stand out, though, was the service. Gemma was brilliant — warm, attentive, and genuinely thoughtful in her recommendations, which felt personal and spot-on. She struck the perfect balance with her check-ins, making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. A lovely atmosphere, great food, and exceptional service — can’t wait to go back!

I found it over hyped! Vegetarian food is average. My friends liked the non veg platters though. Otherwise it’s just average in terms of taste. Pricing is decent. The drinks were not good too. Happy that cost of same was refunded. Restaurant offers a great ambience. The toilets are so beautiful. The staff who took our order had no knowledge about the menu and there were multiple errors in getting the right food or the food didn’t arrive at all. But the Manager Eddie covered it up, I suggest speaking to him when ordering food to avoid any confusion. Great guy Eddie !

When the food arrived, it was an Indian delight, the best I have ever had. It was everything and even more than what I expected. I totally enjoyed myself. The lamb chops were to die for. I have zero faults about this place and highly recommend it for anyone that is considering visiting it.

A Half-Kilo Revelation: An Ode to Karahi Excellence In a setting where one’s culinary expectations might ordinarily remain modest, I was met — quite unexpectedly — with a dish of striking authenticity and quiet brilliance: half a kilogram of traditional Pakistani karahi, served unadorned, without rice or sides, and yet utterly self-sufficient. The meat was masterfully cooked — tender, richly infused with the bold aromatics of garlic, tomato, and green chilli, and nestled in a sauce that clung to the pan with the confident reduction of patient, practiced hands. This was not food hurriedly made; it was food remembered — a faithful rendering of tradition, served with purpose and pride. What elevated the experience beyond mere satisfaction was the service — gracious, attentive, and instinctively generous. Without prompting or charge, I was offered complimentary poppadums, a gesture that, while small, spoke volumes. It suggested not simply hospitality, but a philosophy: that food is to be shared, and excellence delivered without ostentation. That such a meal should be found tucked away in this corner of the city is a quiet triumph — a reminder that great cuisine does not announce itself with fanfare, but waits patiently to be discovered by those who still know how to notice. A richly deserved five stars.
