Be prepared to wait in line, and keep in mind that they do not open weekends. The cheeseburger here is nothing short of glorious perfection.

Ok, seriously #1!?! They are rated at #1 of 816 restaurants in OKC. We just had to find out what all the buzz was about. Upon arriving we were shocked to see how tiny the place was. We parked and had to stand outside as there was not even room to stand and wait in doors. Again this was a... More

Nic's Grill is a bare bones tiny 50's style lunch counter diner that is a true greasy spoon culinary adventure. It is always packed around lunch time and although the limited menu does have a chicken fried plate, breakfast items, and other daily lunch plate specials, their specialty is the onion burger. When you walk in you can expect to... More

With only 4.86 miles between us and Nic's, I just had to see if the place was as good as the reviews. It is, now let's see if I can give a bit more detail as to why. Two guys working, one asks what you want, not how you want it prepared or what you want on it, just what... More

I know as someone who is looking to eat healthier that I shouldn't even drive down the same street that Nic's is on, because when I get near it, I can just smell the taste of the big juicy hamburger made just the way you like it from fresh ground meat and grilled onions with hot melted cheese and served...

Are you a burger fan? Don't miss Nic's Grill in OKC. They have some other items but the Burgers are the answer. Nic's is very busy with few seats in the small location. Character is the work here with Oklahoma being the theme. Great to sit at the counter for lunch and watch your burger being built. They are build... More

Hands down the best burger you will eat. Have lived in many cities and have traveled to even more and this is the best that I have had. Expect to wait unless you get there early but it is worth the wait. Bring cash and don't eat breakfast the morning you go. Everything a burger should be...greasy and delicious!!

When we drive to Oklahoma one of my first places to visit, if it is open, is Nic's. The place is always busy and if you're not early you will have a hard time getting a seat. The place is busy for a reason. The food is delish! While I try to eat healthy, I dive off the deep at... More

I cannot stop thinking about this burger place. I tell everyone I know that it is the best burger I have ever had, anywhere, in the entire world. Anytime anyone even goes near OK, I tell them they have to stop here. You know it is good when there are people who are willing to stand, in line, without complaint,... More
