Dinner at Nick's Bistro

Nick's Bistro
104-20 Metropolitan Ave
Forest Hills NY 11375

Greeks diners are the best diners period!! There has never been a Greek diner where I didn't enjoy their food.

So last night my boyfriend and I were in Forest Hills and all I wanted was a burger and buffalo wings. There's not many places to eat on Metropolitan Ave. First we decided to go to Blackwater Inn because that's our go to bar, but when we got there the place was packed. Turns out it was the first night they were open after being closed for renovations. I was so sad that we couldn't eat there because you could see from outside how packed it was and there were no seats at the bar either. My boyfriend reassured me that I wouldn't have wanted to eat there since you could still smell the fresh paint and I have a very sensitive nose.

So we decided to walk down the avenue to find something to eat. When we first saw Nick's Bistro we were across the street from it. We were a little skeptical about the place. At first we thought it was going to be an overpriced kind of restaurant. So we both decided we'll just check the menu first and we'll take it from there. I'm sure glad we took a look at the menu because they had your typical diner food. I was just happy I was going to get my burger.

Once inside we were seated right away and the waitstaff was very friendly and polite. After we sat down and ordered we got some pita bread and humus for starters while we waited for our food. The pita bread was nice and toasty and the humus was delicious. To our surprise the buffalo wings were really good. The sauce was good, not like your typical bar buffalo wings, but it was up there. Once our burgers came I was so happy that I got a cheese burger. They put American cheese on both the top and bottom part of the beef patty and the burger was on point. I had my cheese burger with onion rings and I honestly have nothing bad to say about it. My boyfriend had a turkey burger with fries and he didn't have anything bad to say about it either. For once we're able to find a good place to eat that didn't cost an arm and a leg.

So if you're in the Forest Hills area on Metropolitan Ave I would recommend going to Nick's Bistro. The food is good and the place has a nice atmosphere to it. It doesn't look like you're typical diner from the outside and it offers other great entrees as well. Sorry I don't have any pictures for the blog, I was too busy eating and I forgot about taking pictures.

Till next time.
