Nicos was once a humble stand selling sodas and snacks until one day a customer saw employees eating something delicious and the restaurant was born. The son of the founder now serves as chef, overseeing a tasting menu of classic Mexican cuisine features such standouts as taco de cecina crujiente on a corn tortilla that delivers characteristic intensity. and a flavor-packed, bright dish of camarones al tamarindo. An enchilada stuffed with tasado and beans and bathed in a pixtle sauce from Oaxaca is an aromatic, tasty crowd-pleasing dish, while the aguachile comes with a feisty kick thanks to fiery chili peppers.
