Super “6 at Nico” for 5
What an original concept carefully researched and presented.
This was a unique meal for 5 of us (family/couples). Tantalising tiny tasting dishes inspired from Ancient Roman were truly delicious!
I loved the pre starter sharing dish as much an the Ancient Roman 6 course.
Each course was an experience! I was shocked at how tiny they were but surprised how satisfied I was at the end of the 6 little courses.
A little bit more - bread for dipping/sampling?

Staff were very knowledgable but some seemed a little nervous, rushed and very fast speech. However, were all keen to please and to make us feel welcome. The little menu scrolls had the fine detail and menu booklets to take home were a caring touch.

Next time?
Yes. Maybe a better seating area away from the speakers near the window and away from the bustle of the place.

Yes. Excited to try another experience and range of tasting dishes.

First night of the ancient roman menu Dublin and the venue was full. We had a last sitting, which was a good choice as it seemed that service was a bit rushed, from our observation. Our table, for two, was a bit small. Lots of things on the table which is not really needed. Lots of staff rushing around but all was a bit confused and disorganised. Maybe first night menu nerves. Think personally better one person serving one table from start to finish. You build up a connect then. Had ordered a cocktail before wine and for the snacks, but the wine then came and was just poured before we knew what was happening, (not even asked to taste it). Cocktails section maybe overwhelmed. Once we asked if the pace could be slowed, it was way nicer. Alex, was very tentative and friendly, lovely chap. The Artichoke Fritti and Pork dish was our favourite. The sole was disappointing, tasted as if from frozen. Good price for what you get. Would go again, but would perhaps not go the first few nights of a new menu. Menu descriptor font size is tiny and was a struggle to read. Also Whiskey header I would use Irish version of Whiskey, not Scottish, given that most of the Whiskeys are Irish. Not enough toilets and they seemed unfinished.

This was my second visit to Six by Nico.

Food was good.
Service was poor.

The Once Upon a Time menu was just as good as the Miracle On…menu; I was even pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed a dish that was just a carrot!

With regards to allergies, they were very accommodating - no complaints about this at all!

Only let down this time was the service - waiting on cutlery after the next course has already arrived or waiting on the food when the wine has already come…and then being told they need the table back in a not so friendly manner…wouldn’t even have minded if the waitress had just said so rather than putting the bill down, said we need the table back and walked off.

This was a complete contrast to my first visit where staff where attentive, friendly and on the ball. I get that being told to tell people you need the table back can be awkward, but asking politely makes the world of a difference.

So what was fairytale menu has no happy ever after…

Firstly, I'm genuinely surprised that some people have rated this place as 1 out of 5.

The portions are small, but it's clearly advertised as a "Six Course Tasting Menu".

We had the snack (donut with chicken liver filling) which was amazing. The flavours shouldn't work but they did.

Every course was lovely and, for the money, great value. We did the wine accompaniments which was great. Every glass complimented the food and the waiter explained why this was.

We loved it. Yes, it's a bit of money but it's a treat. If you want more food on your plate for your money...go to Pizza Hut or a Harvester. But if you want to try something different, definitely head to this place

After not seeing friends for over two years due to Covid I wanted to treat them to something extra special. After reading rave reviews I had booked this weeks in advance and had very high hopes.

Firstly we opened the menu and saw the first two items in the booklet and then the courses listed after. The waitress asked if we wanted these two which we said of course. We only realised afterwards there was a teeny card on the the table which stated these were at an extra cost. This was not clear on the menu. Firstly it was a sugar coated jam donut that has been filled with a chicken or fish paste not sure what it was but it was absolutely disgusting and we where charged £5 each for this. Then a drink followed which I can only describe as alcoholic sweet kids cough medicine. This an extra £9 each. Our first experience was an overwhelming sweetness to the point of sickness. The weirdest combination of foods we have ever eaten.

Next up was a lone potato… one cold potato looking very sad on a plate with a cold water like substance in a bowl next to it. Literally for a fine dining restaurant this was laughable. My friends and I left this course and where not asked why, the plate was taken away and replaced without a word. It was replaced with half a cold carrot… I had no words and was extremely embarrassed I had recommended this to my friends.

The next courses are a blur of very cold, very bland and very tiny portions of food. Our drinks where extortionate prices but trying to salvage the experience I bought glasses of wine for the table. £42 for four glasses.

We had a pleasant enough waitress but they where just going through the motions. Everything served super quick. Our bill was nearly £300 and we left hungry and went to a late night pizza shop on the way

We will never be back, it feels like we where scammed out of our money for dishes that cost pennies to produce

Food was beautifully presented but there appeared to be be only teenage chefs. No steam. No smoke. Tepid tasty food. Wine pairing was poor. Cheap sharp French plonk. Next course appeared seconds after plates lifted. No breathing time.

There was imagination and occasional wow but felt like factory floor with bored staff rhyming off well remembered patter.

An really different experience- lots of dishes on the menu (Shanghai) i wouldn't have expected to like, but there were done so beautifully, I loved them. I have been to the London restaurant before but the service in the Belfast venue was much better, very slick but still personal.

I just want to highlight the lack of kindness shown here. I called up a good 4 days in advance to cancel a booking due to a bereavement and the woman on the phone could not have been more unfeeling rude and cold. Ok that’s cancelled and out the phone down. Kindness costs nothing and I won’t be supporting a business where there is not human empathy

Excellent experience from start to finish. The food is great and it was lovely to try all the different dishes. The staff were the best part though, every staff member who spoke to us was enthusiastic and all were absolutely lovely.

It was a strange experience but enjoyable, the staff were pleasant and tried extremely hard to make the evening go well from describing the food and wine to making the evening flow. The layout is a bit sparse by quite busy we were close to the entrance maybe a bit further in would have been better. The menu was in the most good with small portions it started of with a potato all cooked differently at our table there was duck and a desert I must admit I enjoyed the evening but we sat down at nine perhaps a bit earlier but can’t knock the dark and stormy cocktails at the Spaniard just around the corner.

My partner and I went to Six By Nico to finally try it and see what the hype was about and safe to say we won't be back. Admittedly the food was lovely and very tasty but the portions were no bigger than a baby's hand. Appreciate the whole concept is that of a tasting menu, but the fact we had to get food on the way home doesn't justify the cost of the bill.

We had a near-full large glass bottle of water spilt over us by a nervous (presumably new) waitress, which I appreciate happens sometimes but there wasn't an apology from the management or no offer of a free drink or anything else as a token of gratitude (even though basically the whole restaurant turned around and stared), which you would get in almost every other restaurant.

The booking confirmation had detailed that we had the table for 2 hours, which was fine, but with around 20 minutes to go we had the staff really pushing us to leave, which I thought was really rude. My partner was hadn’t finished her dessert and took a drink from her wine when the waitress tried to lift the plate up. With 15 mins left, on 2 occasions we had 2 different waiting staff bring the card machine and bill to us even though we hadn't asked and we were still drinking our glasses of wine. I asked for the service charge to be taken off the bill due to all of the above, which wasn't received well and we got some dirty looks and when leaving the restaurant because of this, instead of your usual 'thanks very much, hope to see you again soon' (they shot themselves in the foot here as I would have topped the service charge up if the experience was more pleasant).

Overall, really really poor experience from a very reputable restaurant. It felt much like a conveyor belt with the staff ushering you out as quick as possible and a lack of staff courtesy to top it off.

NB: I appreciate the waiting staff have been instructed to explain the dish upon bringing it to the table and go through the different ingredients, but when they forget halfway through explanation what the dishes are and then have to look at the menu that's already on the table and that we have already read through, it is a tad unprofessional.
