"Not sure what happened here. I've been often great service and fish. Now they have a terrribel waitress who doesn't speak any English, a waiter who doesn't know the menu. They didn't give me the salad with my bento box. Had to ask for soy sauce. Fish quality was good but the service put me off. Not sure I'll be back. Too bad this was a fave of mine. Still can't believe I paid and tipped on that terrible service. I even pointed out that bento boxes come with salad as shown in the menu and he still didn't bring me one!!! The waitress knows so little English she disunion the word soda."

"there are so many things that i can say about this location but its nothing short of spectacular. I grew up in Winthrop I remember when this location used to be a McDonalds long time ago and i must say the best thing to come into Winthrop is nicks place. I remember in middle school I would walk to nicks place with my friends and order a sandwich and sit down and eat. The food was always amazing the staff was always kind. Forward now many years later and i can honestly say the same thing all over again. Although ive grown up and moved away from Winthrop i always find myself coming back to get a nice hot and fresh meal. I now live in Beverly and i still will make the drive from time to time to go eat inside nicks! I’ve brought my parents my grandparents other family members my old manager and friends on many different occasions to nicks place because i know it wont disappoint when they order. Because i live far ive tried other nick’s restaurants that are closer to me but nothing compares to Winthrop not in ambiance and not in food so the trip is a must from time to time. Yesterday i was feeling a little home sick i missed spending time with my mother and grandmother so i decided to pick them up and take them to nicks. When i tell you the experience was nothing short of amazing i mean it. GABRIELLE was awesome we ordered our food and sat down and Gabrielle took care of us the whole time. She remembered me from previous times that ive been there she held up great conversation and brought our food out and treats to the table she made sure everything was neat and clean she was very attentive and kind it made the experience so much better. I seen her work at other tables too she gave the same energy all around. They have another woman who waits tables she is Albanian her name escapes me but shes great as well every time i go she treats myself and my family so kind its honestly a breathe of fresh air to get that kind of treatment. Now the food i ordered a fishermans platter and a lobster mac and cheese the fishermans platter never disappoints im so picky when it comes to fish like the minute it starts to taste “fishy” im done. The fishermans plate has never had that oder when ive ordered it its always tasted fresh and tasty. The lobster mac is my weakness i love mac and cheese and the tender lobster thats on it will leave your mouth drooling. The mac and cheese is definitely a shareable plate its very rich and creamy so you can be satisfied without finishing the whole thing. So i always have left overs to take home and trust it taste good reheated too! Ive ordered a bunch or different foods from them there is definitely something there for everyone the staff behind the desk works really hard and efficient you can tell the place is a well oiled machine. I normally dont leave this detailed of a review but i do believe this place deserves it again i been going here for years moved away and i still find myself coming back so its a well worth review."

"We love simply fondue! People really enjoy the feast and the enjoyment of the deliciousness of the food and the fun of the experience of cooking at your own table. We have dined here many many times, and there is something that is consistent, not necessarily in a good way, and we would like to share our feedback to improve the experience there. We have found the amount or wait time for the server to arrive at the table to be extremely long. And for the drink order and first item like salad or appetizer to be waaay too long! It is frustrating and doesn’t set the right tone to the experience. It is a long dining experience but the wait time for service and to receive the first drink and order/ appetizer/salad really needs to be addressed. The runner who brings out the drinks is truly delightful, so maybe capitalize on these staff members, as the wait staff don’t seem very attentive or lively to be there for the customers. This restaurant should be joyous and fun. I realize staff is short and the work is demanding but there is a reason when they are called servers. We were disappointed in the lack of attentiveness and some joy In the service provided."

"I tried to place a order earlier today to pickup and just within 2 min after I placed my order over the phone I call back explaining to them that the pasta I ordered was not the sauce I wanted and asked nicely if I can change it .. I can understand if I waited more then 20 min .. but they told me the order would not be complete for about 30 min .. so how can the pasta be done within 2 min ?! The manager then tells me “Oh we can not replace your pasta with different sauce because your pasta is already finished and you would still have to be charged for it” with a very nasty attitude! I been ordering from this restaurant for years and I have never got such Horrible customer service! They lost my business! I will gladly keep my money and choose else where to take my business. To top it off there food isn’t even that good anymore. my last order had uncooked garlic in my pasta and charge way to much for for the portion! But for the convenience and being loyal customer all these years I was willing to over look that! But now that they have changed there tone and clearly act as if they don’t need my business I will not be a returning customer. If I can select 0 stars for the rude service I received today I would!"

"I've worked across the street from this place for about a year and a half and have always ordered lunch here. This is a great pizzeria with delicious food and very friendly service. The staff has a wide selection of pizza and side dishes, ranging from flavors like plain, margherita, and eggplant, to drunken grandma (grandma slice with vodka sauce, my personal favorite), sicilian slices, white cheese, and more. I've also ordered the breaded zucchini chips appetizer with homemade sauce and they are a delicious healthy alternative. The staff is a group of hospital Italians who have taken good care of me and my orders, and will do the same for you. They cook their food with absolute perfection and I have not had a single bad experience while eating here. If you stop by I guarantee you will enjoy it."

"I've never written a review before, but this place deserves it! I would give it at least 5 stars! I ordered for the first time today, and the food was outstanding—fresh and flavorful! It arrived piping hot and was packed perfectly, with no spills at all. The portion sizes were good, and I think the prices are very reasonable. The delivery driver was also super polite. Since the start of COVID, I’ve been ordering out more than usual, and many of the drivers I've encountered have been rude, not even bothering to say thank you. So, it was refreshing to have such a positive experience! I will definitely be ordering from here again. Thank you!"

"The food was mediocre at best, but we ordered the arancini and it was HORRIBLE, totally drowned in sauce, everything about it was awful. We took one bite and immediately asked a passing server to take it back because it was so awful. When it came to paying the bill, we asked to check that it was removed and were told that because we took a bite we had to pay for it and that it was restaurant policy and there was nothing they could do about it. After having a fairly bad server who seemed incredibly new and struggled to take our order at every step of the way, followed by food that was not great, to be told we had to pay for something that was so bad we couldn’t eat it and sent it back immediately was infuriating. 0 stars, I will never go back here, and will absolutely be sharing my experience and frustrations."

"Unfortunately we will no longer be eating here. On Monday 8/12 we stopped in to have dinner not the best service but it happens, but food was great as always. This has always been our go to family restaurant….not anymore! My husband went used the men’s restroom a guy came in that was from the kitchen, used the urinal after he was done NEVER washed his hands went right back to work. We were done eating when my husband went to pay he asked to see the manager, he explained what he just witnessed, how utterly disgusted we were that we will not be back! He was on his way to go see who in the kitchen was responsible but then got a phone call. We don’t know if he ever addressed this in the kitchen because we left while he was on the phone. I’m not one to post stuff like this but I feel it should be put out there. With everything that was pounded into our heads when Covid hit Im surprised at this."

"My wife and I order from China Express at least once a week. My wife has conversations with the young lady who seems to always be there answering the phone and ringing you up at the register. She is very friendly and the food is great! I'm working late today and actually picking some up tonight. It is just my wife and I, as the kids are out of the house now, and we always order more food than we could eat, but it is so good the next day. Parking: They do have tables and chairs to dine in but most people like us prefer to take-out as we live right down the road about 10 minutes from there. With people picking up their orders, there is always parking and never a wait for your order."

"I would give this restaurant 10 stars if I could! As someone with Italian parents and grandparents, it's rare for me to find a place with authentic Italian food, but this place is exactly that! They were able to accommodate our large party (a cross-country team) for our pre-meet dinner with parents. The service from start to finish was absolutely incredible. We had an amazing experience and the meals were top-notch. I highly recommend this place if you're in the area! Our team will definitely be returning! Cheers!"

"Never. I went with my friend to mt. fuji. I've been to this restaurant before and I enjoyed eating and drinking. our service and eating were great. after our cooking cooked our meal, he began to clean the grill. he must have used the tool to aggressively, which causes hot oil/water to be shot into the faces of my dates and i. immediately after that our cook and our table-consults (which we did not know) were very concerned and asked if we were fine. I didn't want to make a scene, I said politely that we were in order, and I want something ice to burn the blistering that was under my eye. the chef of cuisine has on my request for a...read more"

"First of all, the house dressing? Absolutely AMAZING. I have been dining here for over 10 years and everything I’ve tried has been delicious. However, I’m writing this review to highlight how well they managed my partner’s food allergy. We often encounter issues when ordering since he has a milk allergy (not just lactose intolerance), and usually, about 70% of the time, our meals still include milk or cheese. Unfortunately, I didn’t catch the woman’s name, but she was incredibly knowledgeable about the ingredients and took great care to double-check with the cook about what was in our order when we picked it up. Thank you, Giovanni’s!"

"First time here tonight …. I live a 10 min block away. Had seen some bad reviews. However they were old reviews. I don’t write reviews but I couldn’t be more happy. Service was quick. Got a general tsao combo with white rice. The woman that took my order was friendly. The gentleman that gave me my order all smiles super friendly offering plenty of sauces and anything needed. To top it off my meal was the best general tsao I have had in at least a year. I always ignored this spot due to old bad reviews but I will be supporting them now. Legit the male and female working just that alone so friendly and everything. I’m an idiot for not coming here sooner. Solid 4 outa 5. If they had scallion pancakes. A 5 lol."

"One of the classics has seen a prolonged slump, but word on the street (and the sign out front) is that they 've changed management. Some say they 're back to their old excellence; I had to see for myself (and for anyone who cares what I think). Scallion Pancake: Excellent. Near-elite to elite. Light but thick, with nice moist chewiness in addition to the crispy. Thicker-than-usual and darker-than-usual ginger sauce. BBQ Ribs: Well above average but neither fresh nor elite. Good glaze. Nice char. Meat moist in some spots, disappointingly dry in other spots. Most of the flavor came from the classic bright red glaze. Note: their signature Chinatown Ribs, which put them on the map decades ago, are no longer on the menu. Pork Fried Rice (on a combo plate): Above average. Not too light but not nearly dark enough to claim old school Chinese excellence. The pork nuggets were fresh, sizable, and moist. Solid though. Sweet and Sour Chicken (on a combo): Average. Not a good meat-to-batter ratio. Paler color than most. Red sauce mostly sweet. Five fingers, two pineapple chunks, zero cherries. Egg Roll: Average to slightly below. Slightly smaller than most. Dry inside and out. Grassy celery (and I like celery as well as cabbage, so not a stylistic issue). Keep it away from the pupu flame to prevent forest fires. Shrimp w/Lobster Sauce: Above average. Good consistency, but bland other than some very light black bean flavor. Slightly chalky. Not salty (don 't want a lot but want a little), not greasy (ditto), not sweet (don 't want any). Shrimp were average: very tender, no snap. Vegetable Lo Mein: Above average. Vegetables bright, fresh and perfectly cooked. Light but adequate sauce. Good clean flavor. Good mouthfeel. Yu Hsiang Beef: Looked great, great tenderness, much better than most Chinese restaurant beef, but had a very foul odor and flavor seemingly from a beef handling issue and not a Chinese ingredient issue, so we sent it back (both we and they were polite about it). This had great promise, so I 'd try it again (and if same odor I 'll chalk it up to an ingredient that 's supposed to be that way). Service: Excellent. Atmosphere: Minimalistic. They 've specialized in old school Chinese for years, but don 't have the old-time tiki decor similar to Tahiti in Dedham or Cathay Pacific in Quincy. Approach: While they still serve the old school appetizers and classics like egg foo yong and shrimp in lobster sauce, my gut tells me the best things here are the healthier entrees, such as the Yu Hsiang Beef and anything with green vegetables. I 'll probably check out more of those next time. Regarding the recent nosedive in quality but claims of a more recent resurgence, I say this: One man 's just because the pendulum hasn 't swung all the way back doesn 't mean it 's not swinging back is another man 's just because the pendulum is swinging back doesn 't mean it 's swung all the way back. Halfway back is a glass half full. Celebrate. Or not. It 's up to you. Me? I 'm probably going back for more evidence. They were too good and have too much promise to shrug the comeback off, even if it hasn 't fully proven itself yet."

"Menu was entirely to large. I can only assume they do 1/3 of it actually well. The rum and coke I ordered was the weakest 9$ drink I've ever ordered. The manager was trying to keep track of all other workers masks, telling them to put them on. Then proceeds to put it just under his nose. I'm not super concerned with the covid but if you're gonna jump on your workers to wear a mask, use the mask right yourself silly. The caesar salad was comically bad, olive oil with a touch of caesar. I've had better bagged salads from big y. This place used to be our go to whenever we came to visit my grandparents. Hence the only reason I didn't bring this to light in the restaurant. Didn't want my grandfather getting worked up. Pizza was solid, but again, not what it used to be. If you've used to come here, but haven't been in a minute, maybe find somewhere else. Super disappointed."
