Reviews of Nic's Grill
Alex Wolfe
Stopped in here while driving through Oklahoma on a road trip. Saw this place on the diners drive ins and dives list and thought it was worth checking out. Small and quaint exactly how it was described.
There are only two options on this menu, a burger and a cheeseburger. I would have gotten more toppings like bacon or jalapeños but was never asked. All good. Burger was juicy and delicious as is.
The fries left a lot to be desired. Not sure if the oil was old or what, but they had a burned taste even though they clearly were not.
I’d stop by for a burger again, skip the fries.
Grant Wissler
Really cool old school vibe. The burgers were very fresh and tasked delicious. We got everything on them and fries as well which were great. The service was also good.
Richard Kutz
Been meaning to try this place for a long while. It's a bit pricey and there's a bit of a wait to get your food, but it's worth it. The burgers are amazing. FYI: They accept cash only as payment.
John Warren
CASH ONLY. Figure roughly $20 per person. Burgers are absolutely massive and served to you within thirty seconds of coming off the grill.
Lena B
It's pretty much a little hole in the wall very small place can only fit about 15 people at the max but the service and the burgers were awesome and fresh only two or three options on the menu but they give you about three or four options for toppings that you can add

My first time here, a friend invited me to OKC for a visit. He recommended Nic's Grill. This was an amazing burger. Perfectly cooked and prepared. The staff and owner were friendly and professional. If you’re in OKC, treat yourself to Nic's!

Nic’s has a small venue and is cash only. The menu is simple with options. I had a cheeseburger basket with bacon and jalapeños. The burger was delicious and was amazing. I love fried onion burgers and Nic’s excels with them. The staff was friendly and attentive. They work through the orders quickly and is fun to watch.

Service was a bit on the backside. Soda machine down so only water or tea. My wife's burger was undercooked and after saying three or four times no mustard I still got mustard. Other than that pretty good burger shop.

Hands down, one of the top five burgers of our lives! It’s a tiny little diner, so we’re glad we showed up at 1045am, as it got very crowded by 1115am and people had to wait for seating. The two guys behind the counter were so nice, friendly, and helpful. And the burger, omg, amazing! This is a “must do before you die” experience. 🤤 And we got a bag of their beef jerky to go.
Moto Investor
This is a great place to eat. Get there early or be in line clear down the block. The burgers are worth the weight. Very good stuff. Once inside you will find a copy place and speedy service. I have no complaints. I do recommend getting the grilled onions and jalapenos on your burger. It is very tasty. I'm here on travel for work and may not get the opportunity to eat here again. Again it's a great place that was even featured on dinners and dives.
Jaanay Sanchez
Every time I visit OKC I have to drop by Nic's burger. This place has the best burgers in town imo. The place is also featured on one of my favorite shows: diners, dive-ins, and dives, and I can see why. Definitely worth the hype, it's always packed so be prepared to wait at least 30 min outside but it'll be worth it. Staff is very friendly and the food is AMAZING!! 12/10 recommend!!!
Paul
One of the best burgers I've had. This place is small and cozy, but they have branch with dining and lounge. I'm gonna try there next time for sure.

Nic's Grill is by far the best burger I have ever had! This small restaurant situated just north of Bricktown OKC is a MUST go to if visiting, recently moved or have lived in the area for some time. The fact that they are only open 3 or so hours a days should tell you how good this place is. After watching Guy Fieri from Food Networks Dinners, Drive In's and Dives visit Nick's Grille, I knew it must be a special place. After reading a the raving reviews and accolades they have accumulated I knew I had to go lol. You might have to wait a second for your food, but it is worth the wait! The burger is amazing, the fries are some of the best I've ever had and better than that, they kind and treat you like family. With a small staff, they work extremely hard to welcome people, get their orders and keep them happy while waiting for their food. Make sure to tip them. They do an amazing job!
Justin Wolf
Gluten Free Score: 0/5 but who cares!
Nic’s is unapologetically simple. They do one thing and do it better than anyone.
This is an incredible local burger joint. The seating is extremely limited (16 seats total) so if you arrive after 10:45, expect a wait, but it’s well worth it! They make the burgers fresh right in front of you, the options are simple, Everything Burger, Everything Burger with Cheese, or the daily special (today it was chicken fried steak). The French fries are absolutely fantastic curly fries that are perfectly thin and crispy. They use shredded lettuce on the burgers and have the usual add-on offerings (mushrooms, bacon, etc).
This is a great place to bring tourists or family from out of town.
Marie Noel
Definitely different. Itty bitty place but neat. It was busy so we waited a little bit but nothing major. Service was great.
The water was not good...at all, I couldn't drink it. The burger was tasty though. Will visit again.
Johnny Leech
One of the best burgers I've ever had. Just a bit of wait outside but once inside had a seat at the counter and was greeted with a soda. Very efficient process Nic has there
Richard Tiner
The burger itself was really good, the best tasting one I've had in okc, but the bun and fries weren't very good at all
Daphyne Bowens
Burgers and curly fries is all that is on the menu but it was the best burger I had in a long time..they make them to order
Thorin Miley
The downstairs speakeasy you have been wanting to find! Nic! The Czar of hamburgers has a perfect lounge! Blaine and Lauren are awesome bartenders, attentive and knowledgeable. They know their craft. The food goes without saying since it's heritage is Nic's. If you have had it. You know. If you haven't. Try it.
Mike Barlow
I got here at 10:20 and two people were already in line. This place doesn't open till 11.
When the doors opened, Nic greeted everyone and carry on conversations.
I talked to Nic and he said he's been doing this 23 years. Another guy working with him has been doing it for 21 years.
I had an onion burger with cheese and jalapenos and fries. The burgers really good. The fries were and fresh cut.
I highly recommend eating at the restaurant. The burger so greasy and filled with flavor and it wouldn't be the same if you took it to go.
Tiff Tiff
Burgers were decent. Not what we expected from the reviews but we were starving as this was the first stop from airport. The guy with the dreads had exceptional customer service. The place is very tiny, maybe 14 seats so luckily we had perfect timing with short wait. This is definitely a dive joint but worth atleast a try when visiting OKC.
Christian Campbell
Big, fat, juicy burger with great fries! Delicious! Obviously, Nic's is a small place and can be tough finding a place to sit during peak lunch hour. I believe the wait is worth it. Be sure to bring cash, because they don't do cards. In case you forget, there's an ATM at the store across the street.
Shannon Delgado
Lives up to the hype! Best burger in okc, fresh cut fries and excellent service. Crazy good burger ( ordered the cheese & everything).
Kaitlyn Lusk
Came here after I saw it on diners drive ins and dives. I wanted a good burger and I got it. The option for food was burgers and burgers. I love the curly fries, you can taste the potato. Ate the whole thing. Small place and your like where am I but worth it. This is the photo of the aftermath. I was so hungry and it looked so good I forgot to do a before photo.
Michael Brown
Glad we found this burger diner. One of the best burgers you'll ever get to wrap your fingers around.
Woah
The burger was amazing the fries were under cooked sadly but I'd totally come back
Jason Watt
Yes, the hours are limited, and its cash only, but that all brings a special charm to the best damn burger in OKC.
Jon Blair
Believe the hype! Nic's makes an incredible burger and fries! This tiny restraunt packs a flavorful punch! Your burger is made to order as soon as you walk in the door! You choose the toppings and enjoy the results! Best burger I've had by far in OKC!!!
Jon Rodgers
Place is small get there early! The Best burgers around bar none.
Ryan Merrill
If you've been in OKC for a minute, you've probably heard someone mention it once or twice. If you haven't heard of it, you've probably at least been driving down Penn Ave and wondered "what is that little place with the line stretching around the block".
That would be Nic's and they are probably the best recognized burger joint in OKC. This place is the little hole in the wall your always looking for. They were also featured on Diner, Drive Ins, and Dives some time back, so there is that too.
I was excited to try it given all the hype surrounding the place. I gotta say I was a tad bit dissapointed. The meal wasn't bad or anything, it just wasn't the slam dunk experience I was expecting.
The burger was good and it was fresh, but it was just kind of bland. The flavor really didn't stick out or anything. I gotta say, my burger at Tuckers the week before was way better. I wasn't expecting to say that.
Maybe I came on a bad day or something. One day my buddy brought some into work and the smell was driving my insane it smelled so good, and he was raving about it. I'll go back and try em again on another day.
Amy Ha
Very small place with a very small menu (it's just burgers), but yum nonetheless. It's definitely one of the best burger places in the area.
There's a couple of drawbacks, though:
It's a very pricey place with $15 for a cheeseburger combo (burger, fries, drink).
Cash only. There is an ATM at the gas station next door, though.
Very very limited seating. Can be claustrophobic for some.
It's a good place overall. I can tell there is a particular crowd here with loyal customers. I would come back in the future.
Mat Hirsch
Best burger in OKC!! You may have to stand in line and it's cash only, but I'd gladly visit an atm and wait 30 minutes just to get seated in Nic's. I have never had to wait longer than 10 minutes to get a seat, but I'd be ok waiting for 30. The menu is small, pretty much the burger, curly fries, and whatever special for the day. The burger is a massive onion burger packed with flavor. The fries are classic curly fries that are fried to perfection and, especially once you add the Creole seasoning that is offered at the table, super delicious. I definitely eat my crumbs in Nic's!
Matt Muscari
That's how you make a burger. Super skeptical of the hype but it's definelty all warranted. The burger was amazing, super juicy and tasty. French fries were great too. Nic is very nice as well. Will be back for sure.
Trina Reeder
Big Delicious Onion,Bacon,CheesBurger & Frenchie Fries are Delicious. Definitely Worth the Wait if ya have 2 Wait. Yummy 😋 North Side..
Grace Williams
I was visiting from Dallas this is one of the best burgers we've ever have had. If your ever in Oklahoma this is the place to go.
Christophe Murdock
Awesome burgers. Virtually no wait time for your order once you are in the door. A little wait time coming in because its crowded. Good solid burger and fries joint.
Billie Jo Braun
Best burger ever! Every year we plan our travel from California to Ohio around Nic's grill hours!
John Walker
Loved it. Lives up to it's name but come early because options start to run out after noon. Also be prepared for a line. It's a tiny place with high demand.
Steve-O
In my opinion...best burgers in OKC...bar none! Very small neighborhood grill with limited menu...but again...the best! Seats only about 20 and there is usually a line...but trust me...it's worth the wait. Nic is awesome and friendly and his help is top notch. Come get some...you won't regret it!
Ken Skidmore
I know they've been on triple D, but... I was there after the rush. My burger was thrown together, very messy. It tasted good, but my fries were not hot. Close to $20 for one person after tip with no extras on the burger.
John Humphrey
A must stop anytime I'm back in town, after all these years Nic's is still as good as I remember it!
Tania Valencia
The burger is awesome, with curly fries. I barely finished my meal..
Ron
Wow what a burger. Very small inside but I'm convinced that's why the burgers are so good.
Liz love
We met Nic & Javon today & wow they are the best!! The burgers & fries were so FRESH & delicious!
Sandra Rosario
Small place, atmosphere quaint, the staff attentively awesome! The burgers were worth a littlle wait but very well delicious! I'm still talking about it! Want to go back! I've been there several times! A must go to place for a great burger!
Corey Russell
Excellent service. All the hype is deserved. Best cheeseburger I've ever had bar none.
Paul Beardain
Get here early it fills up fast! Totally worth it because the burgers are outstanding and the fries are delicious.
David Winterink
Best hamburger joint in Oklahoma! No if ands or buts. You'll are always busy for a reason.
Jennifer Blevins
Sooo good. Super messy, so be prepared to use alot of napkins. Only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is the fries had no flavor.
Shelton Horton
Awesome burger! Sometimes you might have to wait in line because there so small but definitely worth the wait!
Madison Daugherty
If you can, go with someone who's been there before so they can explain the dynamics of it all. Be willing to wait in line and grab a seat when it comes available. Keep alert for when Nic (the man at the grill) asks you what you want. It's a fun little adventure and the food is pretty good too. Friendly cats will chill with you in line. The dog in the back is not as friendly.
Andrew Griffin
Ok...here we go...not the best neighborhood...not the best parking...seating is limited and put the wife into full blown panic mode...but best damn burgers period...capital D double E freakin' liciius....completely worth the drive from St. Louis...nom nom nom nom!!!
Mike Jarvis
Best hamburger I've ever had....
Highly recommend
Casey Shelton
Best burger I've ever eaten.
Richard Presley
Probably the Best Burger I've Ever eaten!!! Great service as well.
Sarah
The burger was fresh and not a pre-formed pattie, the bun was soft and I could get the toppings that I liked. However, it was greasy and made the bun soggy. The fries were floppy and flavorless. Another 5-10 minutes in the fryer and some season salt would have gone a long way.
Marshall Spohn
Amazing burger and friendly staff at a decent price. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who wants a great burger!
Krystyna Ermer
Yum!! These burgers we're so lucky and delicious!! You can tell they are made with the best ingredient, TLC!!
John Pyers
Absolutely phenomenal! If you're reading reviews trying to decide what place to eat at, stop now! This place has the BEST burgers! Service is excellent as well!
Brian Babcock
Would be 6 stars if possible! Great food and people there were absolutely fantastic!
Josh Wayland
I've eaten here twice, separated by a few years. The first time I remember it being reasonably priced and just a standard, tasty and greasy burger. Went several weeks ago, and not much had changed, but the burgers really lacked much flavor, had dry, cheap buns, and burgers weren't cooked evenly. Also, the prices have gone up enough I can definitely say it's no longer a good value. With the dozens of burger places that have opened in OKC since my first visit, Nic's is definitely trailing behind. I realize this place has many 5 star reviews, but I can name half a dozen burger places that have a significantly better burger than here. Overall still, the atmosphere is neat, service is good, and it's worth a one time visit. Just know there's better available and if you don't have cash or want to wait to be seated, go elsewhere.
RCGshakenbake
It's good but I don't understand the hype. The burger tasted bland to me and the line was too long. Still on the fence if the wait was worth it.
Robert Stewart
Good burger but not worth $17
Independent Analysis
Amazing fresh & juicy burger. Staff was really friendly to everyone. Son loved the place.
Dris Littlepage, CRS
Delicious as always! Best burger I've EVER had!
Campbell Sadeghy
Absolutely amazing burger. Easily one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. Make sure you bring cash as it’s cash only.
Ronald Gabe
Large helpings. Prices a little steep. Limited seating. Not much parking. Good food
Calista Mundt
Definitely the best burger and fries I have ever had. We have gone on birthdays, anniversaries, special occasions, and just because it's the best burger ever! I would highly recommend if you're looking for something new with very friendly people Mic's is definitely a great place to try!!
Keenan Barnes (ghost)
Nic's grill is a cute small burger joint where two people work and give better customer service than most places.
I love going here when I get the chance. Highly recommend if you're coming through town.
Sabrina Mitchell
Burger was a tad undercooked. But still delicious in flavor.
Dennis Eastwood
Incredible burger!! Very cozy environment, excellent service. I highly recommend!!!
Monda Wise
This little cafe so was cute! The burgers were awesome, and service was great!
Jeff Aynes
Always a great experience from the staff to the food. A little tight on space but still best burger I have had. Glad I saw them on Diners Drive Ins and Dives several years ago. Great job Nic and team.
James Albert Nannety
Nic's Grill is amazing. There is a reason why this place always has a long line and there are people who come from other places to eat here. The burgers have a really nice home made feel to them and they are seasoned very well. The people there are super friendly and courteous. This place is not the biggest you will see but it is definitely an experience. It is cash only. The atmosphere is a great one to have a nice lunch.
Sean Schultz
Best burgers EVER! Ask for everything on top. Only open for lunch so get there early before the line starts. They can't seat too much people.
VEGAS
Absolutely the BEST CHEESEBURGERS I HAVE EVER HAD, YOU HAVE TO COME HERE AND TRY THEIR FOOD!!!!!!! Fantastic Customer Service and Friendly and pretty fast and super clean and you can tell they love to cook for you here!!!!! Really good thin curly Fries that have a superior taste I am not exaggerating about how good their food is l!!!!! Thank You Nic's Grill for being there!
Noah Nelson
This place is extraordinary. The burgers are insane, the service is fast and polite. Actually, its more than that. They were really really nice. I took my dad here since he's visiting Oklahoma for the first time and they made me proud to be from this city. Thank you nics. I will DEFINITELY be back. I would give em 6 stars if I could.
Eric Boyd
This place is great. The burgers are big and good. It's small and that adds to it's charm.
Pam Sirilo
Been eating burgers here for many years. Never disappointed. Best burgers ever. I don't eat burgers anywhere other than Nic's.
Patrick Jones
Absolutely superb. Burgers are quite unique and very satisfying. And huge.
The Snider Group
Great Burger, simple stop and eat joint.
405 Proud
Absolute best burger in OKC, if not Oklahoma. The quality, top to bottom, is excellent. Every thing is fresh, the service is friendly, and the atmosphere, though small, is inviting. Do not confuse this with Nic's Place. This is his original location and has far better quality food.
Alberto Modolo
Great spot for burgers! One of the best in the country, be ready for a long wait! Definitely worth it... Nic is super friendly and talented on the grill! This place is cash only and their combos cost about 12/13 dollars per person... The daily specials are interesting, you should try the fried steak with mashed potatoes. The restaurant has a limited capacity, so this is not a great spot for groups. They also accept orders to go.
Empress Anna Tsatoke
First time there...had to be there before it opened. Great Burgers but no space. Cramp and crowed... But the Burgers are delicious. Atmosphere is friendly... And if you like ultra thin curly fries that taste alittle like cardboard😂 by all means spend $14.00 for one person. They have two locations.. This one is only open for 4 hours. The Burgers are just an old fashioned American Burger fll of fat that runs down your arm. If i go back...it willl only be for the burger... And the staff is awesome!!
Ms. García
Omg!!! I love this place!!! I think this is the best burger I have eaten in The United States! It is very yummy!!! The flavor of the meet is outstanding!
The service is also good!!!
It takes a long time to prepare your burger, but it is because it is cooked to order!!
The only "negative" thing I could say is that the place is very small.
I will come back FOR SURE!!!!
dmills327
Probably the best burger I have ever had. The two workers were top notch. Only down fall to me is that it is cash only. I am on a business trip so I will have to cover the lunch but it was well worth it!
Steve Newkirk
Nic’s is the best! Always fresh meat daily. I’ve never had a better burger. Come hungry these are phat juicy yummyness!
Samuel Medina
One of my favorite burger joints. Fat Boy Approved.
Michaela
One of the best burgers I've ever had! Although we had to wait about 20-30 minutes to get seated, since there were only 15 seats inside, it was worth the wait! Everything is made fresh right in front of you, including the curly fries and burgers. My family and I will definitely come back in the future!
Drake Robinson
Amazing, amazing food. One of the best burgers you'll ever have. Be sure to get there before opening as there's only a few seats, but if you want a quality burger and fries that are perfectly fresh, this is your place! Cash only
David Norman
Seating for only 17 people at a time but its worth the wait.
bronzegaines
Great food and great service every time.
The Serg
When I lived there in 2010 they were not only the best Burgers in town but the best Burger I have ever had and I have tried burgers in lots of states while traveling. Tucker's was a close second but Nic know how to fill them up just right. Small joint, long wait time and cash only but WELL worth it.
Horatio Hewat
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. One-of-a-kind experience for the best burger you may ever have. But, this is for the N. Penn location only. Seating for only about 20 people, and 1 man on the grill. Very composite menu, as long as you only want a burger and fries, because there are no other options. Nic’s learned that if you do one thing perfectly, you don’t have to offer anything else.
Wendy McKim
The burgers are so good!
Carlos L.
Love this Place. Definitely Best Burgers in OKC
Bobby Gaines
Outstanding Place outstanding service best burgers in Oklahoma City....
Kim Gentes
Nic's Grill is a one room food stand that serves your basic burger/fries combo in the greasy spoon style . The grill and seating is actually pretty clean and nice, if even cramped. The cooks (2 of them) handle the orders , cooking drinks and payment. It's all personal, quick and friendly.
The food was good. The burger was big and full of medium well cooked beef. I had it with everything and it was well stocked with all the dressings you'd expect. It wasn't amazing, and the beef wasn't the juiciest I've ever had but still good. The fries were short thing curly style, with pieces and gathered in a debris style onto the plate.
This is my second stop at Nic's while stopping on a cross country journey. It was worth it to experience it, but I probably wouldn't stop again. Good enough to try, but not enough to keep coming back, at least not for the burger.
I noted they do have a second item on the short menu now-- chicken fried steak. I'll try that if I come back with friends who want to try Nic's.
T. Michael1415
First time eating here with a friend... fresh ground beef and grilled onions. Worth the price. Next time I'll make sure to say well done on my burger, it was slightly undercooked by 2mins for my liking. But it was still able to enjoy it. Just would like more mayonnaise on it also. We both said we would return again. ☺️👍🏾 …
Brad
This is a must stop for anyone visiting OKC. Their burger is the best I've ever had.
Vince Slagle
The burger with everything and curly fries are worth the wait. The place is a small cozy atmosphere. The staff is kind, friendly and personable. You have to experience Nic's at least once. You'll probably have to make it a regular stop though when you have some extra time for lunch as Nic's is quite a popular destination.
Steve Salerno
My buddy and I drove from Dallas just for the burgers! It did not disappoint. Awesome
Glenn Burchett
Eating at Nic's is a special experience. Limited seating, small menu, and the food is prepared right in front of you. The burger is cooked to perfection, perfectly messy, and completely delicious. Fries weren't amazing by any means, but that's not what you're going there for. Make sure you get the burger with "cheese and everything." Definitely worth stopping by for what is most likely OKC's best burger.
Jason Sanders
Well worth the wait! I will definitely be back the next time I'm in OKC.
Ron M
Best dive burger in OKC. Did I say it's no dive?
Preston Blochowiak
Absolutely amazing. No need to keep preaching to the choir about how good it is. If you haven't gone, you are missing out, plain and simple.
daniel ethington
Simply put Nic's Grill is freaking amazing. This place is very simple. They have two things on the menu burger or the daily special (usually chicken fried steak). The burger is life altering. Seriously. Once you have this burger every other one seems so average. The burgers are a healthy size. They are very juicy and full of flavor. They have all the traditional toppings for your burger. Me personally I love getting everything on it, especially the grilled onions. The fries are done just to my liking. Crispy but not overly done, and don't forget to add the Cajun seasoning.
Now this place is small. It only seats 14 people. This place is popular and so there is usually a line out the door and around the building. The building has a very unique atmosphere about that's hard to describe but sets it apart. Best advice is to get here before 11:15 to avoid the lines.
The staff is awesome. They are pretty on point. It's actually pretty entertaining watching them work because they are highly efficient at their job.
Be prepared this is a cash only place.
Robert Gideon II
An OKC landmark!! I’ve never been disappointed at Nic’s! One of the best burgers I’ve ever eaten. Sure it’s a cramped space and the line is long...but I assure you it’s worth the wait! Everything on the menu is great! Pro-tip; the jalapeños are spicy, even for someone who likes spicy food and be ready to order when you make it to the front because the people behind you are as hungry as you! Enjoy, I know I did!
MARYLAN POSTIER
This place is an experience and Best burgers in town..been eating here for years and quality is still the same...
Open at 11:00 so you need to be in line..
David Beranek
For a burger joint it's definitely deserves a 5 out of 5 stars just for the burgers alone.. Then you add in the customer service and the atmosphere... Then it's a 6 out of 5 stars.. did I mention you get to sit there and watch the guy prepare your burger fresh made to order... and the price is on point This place is great 7 out of 5 stars....
Aaron Taylor
Best burger I've ever had. Awesome.
Zachary Herl
Hello!
The food was great! Service was great as well! The wait, well that's another story! I arrived at 11:30, was not seated till 12:45. No biggie! The issue I had was the people in there eating! One group of people stayed in the the entire time I was waiting to eat! Not that I am a genius on how long it takes to chow down a burger and some fries, however... I also know I can eat a full meal in ten minutes or less! Point here... Maybe implement a time limit like fuzzy tacos does! It's a small building, with a big name! The food is great and well worth the wait! Thanks!

Jeff Carlisle
Obviously the best burger in Oklahoma. Very quaint and small location. There is often a wait but it is worth it. Greasy old school hamburger joint and you feel like family. There is a reason all the best burger lists include this place.
Jeff Duda
The burger itself is fantastic. Certainly lives up to the hype. My complaints are about the environment. First, cash only...why? Second, food is very greasy and the napkins don't really help (thin and small). Third, no way to wash hands afterward. Fourth, I saw an employee handle raw meat with no gloves who just minutes before gave me change and a drink refill. He may have washed his hands, but I can't confirm. Either way it seemed questionable.
Jay Cantrell
Lies, I believed the hype and was seriously let down. My onions were nothing but char. Customer service was agreeably on point! Girlfriend said her burger was good. For that I chose to not one star it. Far from the best burgers in town.
Veronica Shultz
Best burger I’ve had, hands down. Combine the incredibly fast, attentive service with insane quality, and Nic’s provides an experience you can’t beat. And their curly fries? Beyond description. Do yourself a favor and get here!!
Richard Beam
Nic's easily has the best burgers in the city. I love the food here, and the guys who work there are very nice. The burgers are huge, hot, and juicy. They are cooked perfectly, and are topped with a healthy amount of fried onions. You will, however, need to allow at least an hour and a half for lunch. There is virtually always a line for this place. Once you try the burger, the thought of a long line will immediately leave your head. The hamburgers are definitely worth the wait because they are the best.
Sean Murphy
Best Burgers in OKC maybe the rest of the world too. This place is a must if you are in the area.
WES
Heads up: THIS PLACE IS CASH ONLY! So don't forget to hot the ATM.
Oh wow... This place is amazing. A little gem hidden right in plane sight. The food is great, the staff is friendly, and the customers are pretty nice too. If you go for lunch expect to wait in line unless you get there early. Grab a cheeseburger with everything.
Steven Judd
It was a cold, snowy day. That is a good time to get a seat a Nic's because it is usually super busy. The reason it is so busy is because the burgers and fries are so delicious. Don't forget to bring cash.
Andres Maldonado
Best burger I've ever had hands down
Neal Parden
A burger is a burger right? No Nic's is something altogether different. The beef is laid on the grill in a ball fresh and cooked to perfection, a big thick juicy burger. They are cooked and built right in front of you when you order. Grilled onion, thick sliced bacon, jalapenos, and mushrooms all to your taste. Three different kinds of cheese to choose from. The fries are pulled from a box that they were freshly cut into. This place is the mecca of hamburgers! I have eaten burgers all over the US and this is hands down the best burger I have ever bought in a restaurant.

Super small, but awesome burger joint. The burger is so juicy and flavorful. We didn't even need to add the bacon or jalopenos!!! 110% awesome and great service too!!!
Jim Brazell
This place is truly an altar to meat in all its glory. As I walked in the door all the patrons lay silent worshipping at the altar of the grill. As I was greeted with what kind of burger I wanted and with that the room lay silent once again. It took about 15 minutes to get my onion cheese burger with everything and as I took my first bite, all the angels said in harmony at this glorious melange of flavors. Do yourself a favor on journey here as soon as you can.

Me and my 3yr old were 1st time patrons today and I can say without doubt that we will be back for a good greasy burger and curly fries (her favorite).Fresh cut fries and fresh tasting ground beef. The actually seating area is tiny but I went in just after 12:15p and there was no wait. Order taken, cooked, and served within 10 mins with a big smile on Nic's face . The burger I got was with everything - mayo, mustard, lettuce, tomato, grilled onion, and cheese. Very large size portions for the price point !
I would give 10 stars if allowed !!!!!
Brian Shepherd
We got in without a wait! Go before noon when the weather is bad and you too might be so lucky. If not, its still worth the wait in the rain.
I love Nics. I've lived around the corner for years and have never been disappointed. Moving further away next month, but I'll still be back.
Its still cash only, and gotten more expensive, so be prepared.

Not a bad spot..... If you're willing to wait a LONG TIME. Their diner holds around 14 spots TOTAL. If you go, there will be a line without question.
The food is All fresh made right in front of you. Menu is simple: Burgers, Fries, and Drinks. But know, this is not a spot that you go to during a busy business day for a quick bite. Every day (except Saturday), they're only open till 2pm. You've been warned!
Zachary Berry
This place is awesome! Atmosphere is amazing and the food is even better!
Randy White
This is a perfect homemade style burger, and fries with a restaurant flair. All fresh cut ingredients, hand measured meat patties, all cooked and delivered right in front of you by great staff that make the experience one to remember. It's very small though. Don't be shocked if the line straps the building, so leave time to wait because it's worth it.
Daniel Angulo
The hamburger is great, very juicy and tasty!
Vin Alonso
Small place, but it’s worth it. Burger is GREAT. Cooked right in front of you. Juicy and fresh. I would definitely go back.
Coby
The cheeseburger was piled high with some of the most amazing grilled onions I've had - a combination of crispy, carmalized, and just translucent onions that was simply delicious. The patty was crispy on the outside and cooked to juicy perfection on the inside - you see the ball of fresh hamburger put on the grill when you walk in and then pressed into the well-seasoned flat top grill to get that wonderful crust. Great burger experience from start to finish!

Finally got my chance to go to Vic's. I got there at 1:00 on a Monday. The wait was no big deal, less than 10 minutes. Everyone was very accommodating and moved around to make the best of the seating.
It was packed to capacity. I was lucky enough to get a seat at the counter and watched as my loaded cheeseburger with onions, bacon and jalapeños took shape. This is one great burger. I highly recommend a visit.
Holly Barker
I was initially very disappointed if there are only two options on the menu. So if you're not into red meat this place is not for you. My boyfriend got the cheeseburger and it was a decent burger. I got the chicken fried steak and the meal left a lot to be desired. But if you're craving a burger it's pretty good as long as you don't mind paying a little bit for it. The inside of the restaurant only holds about 17 people total. So if you're claustrophobic I do not suggest it.
Suzanne Batchelor
Had the absolute best cheeseburger of my life here. It's crazy busy and you're gonna wait to sit but OMG it's so worth it!!! And the service was fantastic, these guys really have it together. I'll go back every time I'm in OKC without a doubt!
Lynda Holloway
My sweetheart and I were headed home to Texas from a very sad trip, to bury a loved one in Kansas. We wanted to take a bit of a break and have lunch. We pulled up Nic's on the suggested restaurants list. We were very pleasantly surprised, as we were not very familiar with the "411" app on our phones. We arrived shortly after 11:00 am on a Wednesday; all of the seating areas were occupied, but they were kind enough to put a couple of benches out front while waiting for an open stool. Without exception, every single person we encountered was friendly and jovial. Nic's reminded me of a cross between "Cheers" and the old delis featured in the drug stores that we grew up with (just dated myself, huh?) ~ they have a menu, but it's not really necessary. The burgers were cooked exactly right, the staff were able to keep track of every burger served ("you want everything?"... grilled onions, cheese, mushrooms and jalapenos were the options, I believe). All of the patrons were very friendly, happy people. It would be very difficult to retain a frown for long at Nic's. Will try to revisit every time we go through Oklahoma City.
Monty S
Most amazing burgers EVER!!!!! I have been going the since 2006. The food is always delicious and Nic and his waiter always give top notch service. Just remember to bring CASH. Nic doesn't take credit card. Oh and there is usually around a 15 to 45 minute wait to get in. But believe me it is worth the wait.
Chad Coy
Extreme hamburgers. So incredibly tasty and prepared right in front of you. You will not leave feeling hungry. The establishment is a tad shabby and only sits about 20 people so either come early and get in line or be prepared for a wait.
Daniel Russell
Fries are fine but the burger is worth the wait.
Lewis Carabajal
Nic's onion burgers are an Oklahoma City classic. People come from around the state for a chance to taste the deliciousness.
Andrew Eyman
Great service and burger. There's always a line but service gets people in quick. Lunch takes about an hour. I've always driven by and finally decided to experience the acclaimed burger and glad I did. Also, you will be full.
Julie Baggett
The burger was an experience. There's burgers before Nic's.... And then regular ones after. They're famous for a reason!!!
Kale Thompson
This is the best burger in OKC. Hands down. The atmosphere is different and that's part of what makes it so neat. The only reason I don't give this restaurant 5 stars is the simple fact of how small and tight the inside is. Other than that. Amazing.
Kenneth Butler
To start: With all the hype, the bar was set really high.
This is one case that "meets expectations" garners a 5-star review. It was everything that I expected it to be. Small, cozy place, a friendly hello, and burgers cooked to order. The burger was a little over a half pound, cooked perfectly and topped with mayo, mustard, grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, and pickles. They cook them when you arrive so there is a short wait, longer if they are busy.
Is this the best burger I've ever had? Honestly, maybe. There's a lot of good burger places just in Oklahoma from Murphy's in Bartlesville to Meers in... well... Meers. But Nic's delivers. My only regret is taking it to go (we ate it in the truck since the place was packed) and that was long enough for the bottom bun to give up. But still, just excellent.
Perfectly cooked
Well seasoned
Deserves all the praise they get
Just make sure to get there early
Great job, guys!
Mackenzie Jewell
Always a treat to get to go to Nic’s Grill! Burgers and fries are excellent. I get my burger with cheese and everything. You can’t beat a burger cooked on a seasoned griddle! Love that they have expanded hours Friday night, and Saturday. It is a must if you live in OKC, or are visiting!
Nick Warden
Actually a pretty good burger and well worth the wait! As other reviews have stated it is is cash only. The service was great too! Really makes you feel at home. I got to try some of the in house made jerkey and it was pretty tasty also!
Christopher Harris
Nic's is by far the best burgers ever!
Jeremy Levin
Simply amazing. No idea how anyone who passes through Oklahoma City can miss this place. Get your burger and fries and basque in the glory that is Nic's.
Jay Taylor
Burgers that look like they will make you too full to move. But these guys have it down to a science, I ate a whole hamburger and some fries, I got full for the rest of the day dont get me wrong. But I wasn't so full that it hurt.
Zach Bowen
Best burger in Oklahoma hands down.
Frank Lima
It was one of the best hamburgers I ever had. The hamburger came with tomatoes lettuce mustard mayonnaise pickles and grilled onions. The only problem is you can get mushrooms on the burger very reasonable or jalapenos again very reasonable. They didn't have any mushrooms they ran out but I did not want jalapenos on my hamburger. When I got my hamburger even though it didn't have jalapenos the cooking surface on the grill was so small that my hamburger what spicy. To me it was fine because it wasn't hot like having jalapenos on but for someone who doesn't like a spicy hamburger I don't think they would appreciate it. But again outside of that it was very very good.
Jeff Kline
If you like huge juicy burgers made with delicious beef this may be the place for you. If you like to top it with jalapeños and grilled onions this is the place for you.
If you don't get there when it opens you will wait in line. It is worth the wait in line and who doesn't mind socializing while you wait? Well loners do, but you can avoid them.
Heidi Meeks
Burgers were awesome! Nice atmosphere. Takes a turn from your traditional hamburger fare, although you can make your own burger as simple as you wish. Onion straws are delicious!
Jay Burton
First time for my wife and I.... it was as great as everything we heard and read.... thank you Calvin Brown (my buddy) for recommending.... probably the best burger we have had, and I have been in almost every state in the U.S.!! Staff was excellent and the patrons friendly.... visit it when ever possible!!
Jason Stuart
One of the BEST burgers I've ever eaten. The staff is second to none. Nic keeps up with every order like no one Ive ever seen, and he greets and thanks everyone, no matter how busy it is. This is a definite favorite, and I'll continue doing business here for years to come.
Casey Boyle
Went for the first time the other day and it was amazing. Cramped area but I understand why. The burger was cooked perfect and they made mine without a bun. Both people working were friendly, even when I walked to the house at first
Alexis Kissinger
A very nice hamburger joint. The burgers are nice and juicy and you get them hot. It's pretty small and, that I have heard, is often crowded and busy. A good place if you don't mind being shoulder-to-shoulder with people.
Kevin Koby
Pretty sure it's the best burger I've had. Came here because of it being on the Diners Drive - ins and Dives show, and we needed to stop for gas and were hungry. Was not disappointed at all! Sure it's a very tiny place but more than worth it.
Justin M
Nic's makes one of the best burgers you'll ever eat. It really is that insane! My problem is that there may only be like 7 or 8 places to sit and lunch during the week you'll experience a very long wait in a line that goes down half a block. I just can't do that often.
Jason Mundt
Soooooo good. Best Burger in Oklahoma
Madernchicano
First time in OKC and we wanted to try the burger that Guy Fieri tried. When we arrived it was a literal shack and am old school vibe which I loved. We got in and it was around 12 and reasonably busy but we found a seat. It took them a while to take our order but they were fast to get our drinks. We waited for a good 15 minutes until they asked for our order and another 20-25 minutes for our food too get out. Now me and my friend ordered the same thing and he got now fries then me. I realized they don't have a measuring system for the fries and just throw how ever much. The burger was delicious and sloppy (in a good way) but my only critique is that the buns weren't toasted and the bottom but was soggy and all the condiments were falling off. Overall 8/10 just because it tasted like a regular grilled burger but with alittle but more bite to it.
Josiah Chapman
*cash only* One of the best burgers I’ve ever had! Nic himself worked the grill and his associate worked the counter. 16 seats in total. Been in business for over 20 years. A local favorite and it couldn’t be better.
Paul Little
He's doing this on purpose.
You want a delicious, no nonsense hamburger in an overly crowded death trap? You've come to the right place.
Is the burger worth sitting outside for an hour to then squeeze inside to fight to the death for a single cramped seat? I don't know. Is anything worth that?
This is not S&B burgers. There's like one option: cheese or no?
This place is the poster board for hole-in-the-wall diners. It is what it is. It's the smallest diner I've ever been in, grilling super thick burgers with ambulances on standby.
They should have a disclaimer for heart problems and claustrophobia.
I read someone that discussed the "ambiance". Lol. This is a closet.
Simple, good burger if you have patience to fight a crowd.
John L.
This is the best burger in Oklahoma! I've had almost every burger in the OKC metro and there are few that can even compare. Nic is so nice and the 1 man staff is friendly and quick. Commit to the burger and enjoy. Make sure you have plenty of napkins ready.
D0NNYM0NT4N4
Nic’s grill is one of a kind. It’s absolutely how I like to eat a burger! Fatty, greasy, tasty and unique. It’s a cool tiny atmosphere and you kind of feel that you’ve discovered a little gem among the jungle of fast-food franchise companies. Even though it’s not that much about the aspect of “discovering” since almost everyone in OKC has heard about this place. It still has the flavor of it. If I want to get something like a blue cheese jalapeño cheddar bacon onion bison patty burger or likewise I’ll go somewhere else but in most of the cases I just want to have a good ‘ol fatty cheeseburger. This isn’t just that, this is that made to perfection. Caramelized onions, crispy beef patty on the outside medium pink in the center, most delicious American cheese and and.. all of it in the perfect balance between patty, bun and toppings. I don’t care too much for triple patties, even though occasionally it’s cool but most of the time it tastes like a meatloaf between a bun, well NOT here! Just go there and be served, don’t complain about the opening times etc, be happy that there is such a place..
Char Pope
Small but comfortable diner. Juicy yummy burgers! Cash only. You'll spend at least $30 for two.
carlos Perez
Best burger in the state! Always fresh and grilled to perfection. The atmosphere is friendly and service is fast. A must visit place for any burger connoisseur. Try the downtown location at night.
Daniel Dorman
There is a reason this establishment has an hour wait to get food here. And that hour wait is totally worth it when you taste the burger from here. I mean my gosh it’s like someone took a little piece of heaven and put it straight into your stomach. Every time I eat there I leave with just one word in mind. WOW!
Sarah Winkler
Very good food! My only frustration was we placed our order with one person and told them we wanted bacon and then the person grilling asked if we wanted everything on it and we said yes, assuming he already knew we wanted to add bacon. We did not get bacon. It would have been nice if the two communicated.
Adam Johnson
I have tried to find a burger in Oklahoma better than Nics and I have officially determined it isn't going to happen. I have never not had a perfect burger here. Nic is great the atmosphere is awesome and the burger is simple perfection. If you be never been here you are missing out, big time.
Virgie Krane
I have had significantly better burgers elsewhere. The fries were just blah. The meat seems quality and was prepared well just average flavor. The fryer oil was good but the potatoes themselves lame.
Paxton Winsett
Amazing food and awesome customer service will definitely be come back again I think it's the best burger in oklahoma.
Derek Oswald
This place is unbelievable. To those reviews below that gave only one star because they had to wait, and another because Nic's closes at 2- you guys are ridiculous. You're right, you do have to wait a little bit, usually no more than 20 minutes, but that's part of what makes this place so special. With it being a "two man show", it wouldn't be nearly as good if you had multiple different people cooking the food. I've never had anything besides the burger, w/ mayo and "cheese and everything", fries and a drink because WHY WOULD YOU GET ANYTHING ELSE? The food is amazing and Nic and Jovon are great- I promise that you won't just eat there there once.
Randy Smith
Amazing, fast nd reasonable priced . BRING CASH
Travis Tatum
Other than the long wait and cramped space the burgers we're good, the staff was great, they work hard to get you in and out. It was quite expensive, 2 people I spend 30$ including tip. Even though it was a great burger, the experience was not so great, I don't think I will ever go back.
Brandie S
The best burger they rank even with Clark BBQ, my two favorites 😍 …
Patricia Escalante
Passing throug Oklahoma City on our way to Los Angeles California and stopped at this burger joint. The best greasy, 100% all beef giant cheeseburger with grilled onions. And the skinny curly fries. Cash only and worth every penny!
abner Lopez
I love Nic's grill, the food is always delicious and he treats his costumers like family.
Even though during lunch rush there is sometimes an hour wait in the heat or cold, i will always wait in line and still give this place a 5 star rating. it is that delicious.
Ali A
OKC Signature burger spot! Probably the best Grilled Onion burger in the City!
Chris Motcheck
Well worth the wait!! Awesome spot if your looking for a simple big hot juicy burger. The curly fries are fresh cut and crispy. Friendly staff, these guys are killing it.
Mickey Thompson
Best burger in OKC. Maybe the whole world. Tiny place with limited menu and short hours. All that said, I'm 65 years old and have eaten a million burgers. I'll stand in the rain if necessary for Nic's.
Jon Cook
This is one of the truly great burger places in OKC. I have been going to Nic's for years and they have never disappointed me. If you have to wait a few minutes to get inside it is worth the wait!
Kevin Toler
Fantastic place. Tiny,, which thru me off at first. Watching the chef cook and buss and Waite is interesting and worth it to see. The burger is amazing, the fries too. Highly recommend.
North Smith
Always has been my go to on weekdays off. He has a new restraunt downtown but will never be the same as this place. If you ever get the chance dont pass it up sometimes (more often then not) there is a wait and it is a little cramped but still the best in town. Great job guys
Edgar Rodriguez (Rod)
My pick for best burger in OKC. Everything is always fresh. Nic is passionate about his food and it shows in his burger. He is generous with the onions, cheese, and bacon (additional fee). Don't forget to add jalapenos! The patty is always cooked to perfection, and always juicy. If you decide to go, be sure to go early as the line can get long and the restaurant can hold maybe 15? Also, go hungry! Food coma to follow.....
Mj Brylczyk
Nic's is a fantastic burger place. I am not able to eat the fries but the burgr alone will have you saying "what fries?". I have seen and believe the line around the block for this place. It's like an Oklahoma staple to have a Nic's burger.
Jerry Hensley
I drive for Uber and Lyft part-time, and the most frequent question I'm asked by people visiting OKC is where to eat. You would be surprised how hard it is to answer when you're trying to navigate, merge and not talk so much that you miss your exit. So I decided to create a little brochure of the sights to see and places to eat. And then I became very ashamed that while I'd been to Nic's Place, I had never actually been to Nic's Grill.
Wanting nothing less than the full experience, I found myself standing in line outside in the rain. The smell of onions caramelizing was so enticing. Once they opened, everyone grabbed one of the few seats available. The first set of patties were already on the grill, so you just have to say what toppings, if you want fries and what you want to drink. Oh, and this is cash only. I had forgotten my 17-year-old needed money that morning, so I had to run back to my car to scrape up some quarters and steal the dollar I keep to tip Sonic carhops.
There is a reason Nic gets a head start on his burgers. It's really more of a hamburger steak on a bun. He starts with a half pound of beef and sears it on both sides, then lets it slow-cook to perfection. Most places just do a hard sear on the outside, leaving the middle raw. Nic's are cooked to a consistent, tender medium through and through.
Once done, it's served with everything except the bottom bun split mostly in half. I thought this a bit strange, but it gives you the choice of eating it whole or to easily halve it. My gosh, that first taste of meat and onions will take your breath away. There's no big smokey flavor - they are cooked on a grill - or unique ingredients. It's just done exactly as it should be. The homemade fries have a natural curl to them, and taste as fresh as they are.
So now that I've experienced Nic's Grill, you need to as well. Or you need to go back. Nic's Place is much larger, they take plastic, their hours are more convenient and the burgers are nearly as good (the handmade shakes are great), but the stories of poor service and long waits after you order continue. So go to the Grill, if you can.
Jason Lee
10/10 would recommend. best customer service I’ve ever had and the BURGER speaks for itself. just come, ignore the long wait reviews and limited seating etc.. it’s something you need to just come experience
Alydia Veneris
From the waiting in line to the incredible atmosphere..this is such a great hole in the wall place. The food is incredible, you get to meet the owner, and the customer service is fantastic.
The burger and fries are to die for!
Michele Bernauer
I ordered the OMG burger it definitely lived up to it's name. The Jojo burger is awesome too. The waitstaff is always friendless. Will go back to try the Reuben.
J Blessed
Amazing service and food I love and highly recommend to anyone looking for a good meal
Lauren “Paige Turner”
Everytime I go here I love it! Nic makes a big, mean, juicy, delicious burger that can't be beat! If you happen to drive by this place and don't see a line out the door, you should stop! That's not saying there's not a line on the inside but if it is, it'll go fast! Javon will get you a drink and Nic will yell for your order while you're standing there. Be patient and enjoy the two man show.
Clay Brinson
The only thing I don't like is the line to get to order.
Ari G.
☆☆Cash Only☆☆ I had to make three rounds over a month and a half to be able to get seats for the wife and I, this place gets packed quick but also realize it fits a limited amount of people... bout 20max. Glad I got a chance to go.
brian shafer
Short wait, excellent food. Some of the best burgers ever.
T H
I love this place for a good greasy burger and fries. Huge burger, lots of fresh french fries, great price. Long line at lunch so plan accordingly, but once inside the food and atmosphere are great!
Chase Modrell
Great place to get equally great burger. I was first introduced to Nic's 3 years ago by a good friend and roommate from Heartland Baptist Bible College. Nic himself mans the grill is very friendly and does a great job remembering names and regular faces. If you are ever in this particular area of OKC, come check it out. The wait is worth it! You might also try Nic's Place which is locatedcloser to downtown OKC.
David Starchman
Great burger, but be warned. They have very few seats and they let people come "save seats". So, the line can be out the door with purses on stools, etc.
Frank Roesler III
Definitely worth the wait if you ever have to experience it, and about as small as a New York venue to boot. Bring cash, because that's the only way you'll be able to pay.
Jesse (NOYDB)
Totally worth the checkout if you can. Give yourself plenty of time as there can be a wait.
Uriel Eternal
Juicy 1/2 pound burgers cooked to perfection. Place is a small venue so it's best to go early. Cash is only accepted but there's Atm inside.
Bob Durning
Excellent burgers... Great staff but CASH ONLY so come prepared
Michael Ihnat
This is not simply a burger but an experience. Yes, you'll have to wait, and yes it's cramped and smells like fried stuff, and no they don't have Coke only Pepsi and yes, Nic and his amazing staff do suffer for their soup, and yes, you better know what you want when it's your turn to order but it'll all be worth it. Just go with an open mind and empty stomach.
Paco Gibson
Simply the finest burger joint in the country. But don't take my word for it. On Trip Advisor it's ranked in the top 10 in the US. And in my opinion, the only reason it's not number 1 is because of the idiots who complain that it's sometimes closed. They fail to understand that Nic is the one and only Cook. He's just one man. Sometimes he needs a day off, is sick, or whatever. If he can't be there personally to cook your burger, he's closed. And that's not a valid reason to give him 1 star.
Ivan Pierce
I have been eating here for 16+ years and it is the standard to which I hold all burgers to. I have yet to find a better hamburger the world over. Always worth the wait to eat here.
kota bear
The best damn cheese burger I have ever had the pleasure of consuming! please come in to eat here.
Jane J
At first I wasn’t excited about the wait. But let me tell you, the wait is worth it! I can’t stop thinking about having another one before we leave to head back from visiting/vacation. When we come back this way we will stop by again. Amazing hamburgers!!
Ryan Salino
Nic's Grill is a place you must go once if you're a fan of mind blowing burgers. And they don't need a full page menu to do it. Nic's quaint little dinner is small, but always filled to capacity, with a line out the door. That's the only downfall, is the potential wait, but man is it worth it. The burgers, cooked by none other than Nic himself, were perfectly cooked, and not hard pressed so they make a little mess, that I loved from the first bite to the last piece I could find on my tray. The grilled onions were amazing, the perfect topper, and served "cheese and everything" is the way too go. And you can't forget Nic's fresh cut in house curly fries. The whole thing was delicious, every bite, until i couldn't bring myself to take another. I definitely hope to make it again before my stay in OKC is over, and you better believe I'll be back the next time I'm in town. Until then, keep rockin the grill Nic!
Ben Carden
My 1st time ever eating here. Phenomenal cheeseburger & service.
Word of advice though get there EARLY if you can or else you'll be waiting in line.
Jared Cole
Best burger in in OKC, maybe the world. The meat is ALWAYS cooked perfectly with flavor oozing out of it. The fries aren't the crispiest, but still tasty, and are far better than the super soggy fries most onion burger joints serve in OKC.
Nic is a genuine character who can make you feel special when crammed in a little hut with 20 other people. His staff works quickly but passionately to make sure everybody is comfortable.
It may be cramped with lines that go out the door and around the building, but it is well worth the wait. Nic's isn't just a restaurant, it's a life event.
Cason Carroll
Hands down one of the best burgers I've ever had. Cash only, but there is an ATM next door. Get there early because there are maybe 15 seats in the whole place and the line gets long.
Sean C
Best burger in OKC - and probably OK. It's just outstanding and it's served by friendly folks who genuinely seem to care as to what you think about the food. And the food... holy moly... love walking in the door and seeing the giant pile of onions cooking on the grill and then the huge burgers as Nic smashes them down and cooks them to perfection. It's honestly more food than most people can eat but I always find a way to cram down the last morsel. Just perfection. Definitely get there early. We usually go when most people would be thinking about a late breakfast or brunch... and we're usually done and walking out the door by the time the line starts to form. But beware... having a Nic's burger and fries at 10:30 makes for a loooong afternoon. ;)
Debra Eccles
Colin Farrell was on Jimmy Kimmel Live tonight and he commented that he had the best Burger he ever had at Nic's!! Just thought I would let you know!! From your pictures I believe him!
Neil M
It was everything I expected it to be.
Big delicious burgers, everything fresh, great curly fries.
Jerad L
Great hamburger in a very small little neat place.
Ivan Azcue
I come from California and THIS IS THE BESTi PLACE TO EAT BURGERS! and BREAKFAST....Oklahoma has no variety nothing but FAST FOOD and lousy restaurants plagues this state...Iam glad to have found this place! get there early or wait in a long line...but you know what?? its worth the wait! THANK NIC!
Oh yeah the burgers are MASSIVE not some thin piece of meat like other joints....
chicken fried steak !! awesome!!
Menu is simple and to the point.....If you want breakfast you better wake up early! I believe he stops serving breakfast around 9ish
Jacqueline Elliott
Friendly cook/server, large burger and a laid back environment. It's very small inside but a good hole in the wall spot.
DjD1ym
Really big juicy burgers, definitely one of the top three burger joints in okc. The biggest problem is the ridiculously long wait to be seated and cash only, so be prepaid and have an unlimited lunch break.
dayna ledbetter fuller
This place has some amazing burgers .But the only problem I had was it says that they open up at 11:00 but every time I’ve been there we have had to wait out in the cold and freeze to death for about 15 to 20 more mins . They should at least let people come in so they aren’t freezing outside while they finish getting things done .
Ron Ward
Look I live not far from Mic's, eaten there many times, and other burger house's, but nic not only has the best burgers in Oklahoma, but also is so respectful of all his friends and dinners, he almost appears to be hands on and personable to his customers, hands down the best burgers going, and if you can, eat it all.
Misty Hopkins (Misty Day)
Great breakfast & huge cheeseburger and fries portions
April Ortiz
Great burger and great service.
Samantha B
Stopped by Nic's while driving through a few states. Was a nice experience. The interior is very small, which to me made it more fun. Food was great. Nic and his staff were great.
Mark Botkin
Very Good Food 😋 And great service too 👍 …
Priscilla Delgado
I visited this place with my boyfriend because we seen it on Guys show Dinners , Drive- ins , and dives. It was worth the drive and every penny, delicious and by far the best burger I've had in Okc.
Steve McMaster
Great burger. Get there when the doors open for seating or pretty much wait outside. Long lines tell the story. Has to be good to wait.
Kori Fabian
So good! Definitely worth the wait. I've got mad respect for these guys for what they do! By far, the best burger I've ever had.
Andrew Chwick
This place doesn’t need any promotion given that there was a 15 person line before they even opened their doors, but it’s one of the best burgers I’ve had in a really long time.
Travis Owen
Best burgers in okc.

Best burgers in the world. We always try to hot nics when visiting okc.... We ate from IL. It is a unique experience that usually requires a wait, but it is well worth it.
K W
Awesome place. Happen to drive by on a Saturday afternoon and there was no wait. Walked right in to the counter and watched the game. Burger is what it is... THE BEST IN OKC!!
David Magar
Best burger I've ever had. Well worth the wait. Cool atmosphere, with even better burgers.
casey mcreynolds

Tiffany Thompson
Just as expected! Awesome burger! Fresh and tasty. A must go to!
Dow Wilson
Great at atmosphere, food and service! Very limited seating and they take cash only so keep that in mind when you visit. It's worth the wait and cash only basis!
Don George
Nic's Grill is a nifty place to have lunch. Burgers are really good and served the way you like them topped, grilled onions etc. Always crowded but that's half the fun.
wgonz Manassas
Excellent burger! Don't go there if you'reshort in time. It takes a while, but it's worth it.
Connor Hanan (YungCrypt0)
This place only has about 20 seats, so if you want to grab lunch here I'd recommend getting there a little early. The burgers here are life-changing though
Dallin Peacock
I'm from Dallas, any time I go through OKC, this is the place I stop. The burger is the greasiest mess I've ever seen and I love it. Not great for groups, sadly. This place is TINY.
Jim Cooper
The best burger I've ever had. Well worth the wait. It's an experience.

Best burgers anywhere, hands down. Plan on waiting or go elsewhere but it is worth the wait. Nic is a great guy and loves what he does. None better

This meal was fantastic. Eat here immediately.

I come to OKC every year for vacation. I don't go home without a stop at Nics. I eat burgers every where I go from OKC to St.Louis to Memphis, Florida, Cleveland to the Outerbanks. There is none better. Say what you want there is non better period.

Karen Hogue
The burger is fantastic, but it is uncomfortable, tiny and cramped. No menu? Guess the prices? Definitely unique.

So good it nearly always has a line. It is a small place with seating for 20 or so. Fresh made patties and fries.
Tom Lester
Onions were exceptional. Grilled to perfection. Great all around! Sad we couldn't have fries though

Excellent burger and great half caramelized half fresh onions. Friendly staff.

Toolee M
Prettt good burger. The place is pretty small, so be prepared to get close to one another.

I loved the burgers but thought the frys were only okay. Plan ahead because it is a tiny place and expect to wait a bit during lunch time.
Christopher Gerstner
Walked in and out with 2 amazing cheese burgers in 10min. The french fries were pretty bomb as well!
tony francis
First time I have been disappointed with Nic's. Maybe it was because the young kid was cooking. French Fries were under done and cold. Meat in burger was barely flattened so didn't fit the bun.
Daniel Smith
Best burgers I've ever had. Someone told me that and I went in expecting to be let down and it still outdid its high reviews

Not much room for seating but if you came for a good burger, you will get it.

I went there years ago when I saw them on a restaurant show on the food network. Nic’s really nice but the wait was way too long, the restaurant is way too small, and the food was way too greasy.
