1st& last order. Called them for delivery based on other Unilocal reviews. Never again. ORDERED: Filet Mignon sandwich — steak dry & unseasoned, bread dry, sandwich dry. added mayo & ketchup from my fridge, it helped make it a little more palatable; Chicken wing platter, came w/fries & slaw. smallest(6) chicken wings ever seen, tasted more burnt than«grilled», bbq sauce to vinegary, completely disappointing meal overall. CUSTOMERSERVICE/DELIVERY: Very good over the phone customer service, patient & polite; Delivery was within an hour but no points for delivering cold food that had to be reheated in the microwave. Cost of food = Average; $ 8+ for filet mignon sandwich, $ 9+ for wing platter.

I am from Los Angeles and had the misfortune of being stuck in Philadelphia for two years. While there I stumbled across this little place by accident after a night of drinking. It was one of the best discoveries I made in Philadelphia! Even since I moved back to Dallas and LA; this is a «must do» spot to eat at every time I return. I brought friends with me this time from Texas! We all had the foot long«grilled chicken» sandwich on Italian bread with provolone and hot sauce! I was in heaven and had two! My Texas buddies gobbled them up as well! The menu is great, people are typical south Philadelphia residents– open late! Parking is a challenge but I always park in the red zone and never have a problem! Great food!

Let’s talk people, these guys laugh joked with every person that walked in. You can tell its family owned, it has a welcoming feel. So most importantly the food, ordered the Nicks special … Blew my mind simple, cooked right, Super fresh ingredients and filled my gut pretty good ! Can’t beat it !

I had a complaint about the salad not having enough lettuce, so I ordered the salad for the past two weeks and I want to say either the of salad maker is back but the salads were the best I have ever had. Thank You for listening!

Delivery is very quick and always accurate. The tuna and filet sandwiches are great. They use Sarcone rolls which is a plus. The roast beef sandwich is really juicy and quality beef. I have only gotten delivery from them but it has always been good.

When I’m eating clean this restaurant has a lot of options because everything is grilled. The Greek salad is one of my favorites. And the filet mignon is great, I get it for my dog on his birthday every year, he loves it. My only complaint would be everytime I order the same things the bill is a different price but no worries still a great spot

Best wings I’ve ever had in Philly. Not crazy about the wall size mirror reminding me that I should have went to Fuel, though.

The crew is always cool and the food is great. My favorites… Greek salad w/grilled chicken, the wings, and the sauteed spinach. Great place!

This was good takeout and arrived still warm even though it’s insanely cold out. Got the rib and wing combo. They go heavy on the sauce which I initially wasn’t happy about but as I was eating the sauce was enduringly good flavor-wise. The meat had a nice bbq char which i have been craving. Nice portion, I finished it but don’t feel like a monster. Great fix for a meat craving. Would order again!!!

I ordered the tuna steak platter. Tuna out of the would have been better. The tuna was over cooked to the point of a rubber texture. Tuna steaks should be fresh and served rare. The fries, however, we’re very good. Too many good eateries in the area to waste my time and money here again.

Just ordered delivery! I had the BBQ chicken and rib combo. It comes with French fries, and coleslaw. It was delicious. The BBQ sauce isn’t too thick, and the ribs pull right off the bone. My bf had the Nicks special Filet Sandwhich. It had tons of steak, spinach, cheese, and the selling point, Sarcones bread. Definitely will order again!

Tried the ribs and chicken platter. The chicken was nicely grilled and tasty, but the ribs were a little burnt and tough. The delivery guy was a jerk too. The price he said was higher than what I was told on the phone. He made a nasty remark and didn’t thank me even after I tipped him. If I go back, I’ll be picking up.

I’m a slob so I know what I’m talking about when it comes to food. We are extremely lucky living in South Philadelphia because there are so many fantastic places to eat! But if you are in the mood for BBQ or food that offers that delicious truly grilled flavor I would highly recommend Nick’s Charcoal Pit! I could go on and on and please understand I am truly speaking from my heart and my middle region when I say that all the food here is orgasmic!

Alas, the quality seems to be slipping at Nick’s Charcoal Pit which is one of my all time takeout faves. For 6 yrs we’d order from here several times a month but the past few times have been very disappointing and we’re avoiding it lately. The filet mignon sandwich with greens USED to be the best thing ever but the last few times there is so little meat its a «flaming yon wish sammich» where you WISH you had some meat. Weekday lunch seems to be the best chance to get good grub there. On weekends or game nights the chicken, ribs, burgers, or wings are usually burned, sometimes too badly to eat. Not char, but hard black thick patches that are inedible. I don’t want to give up on them. I’m OK w/bland icebergy salads, untrimmed wings, nasty cole slaw, and real flame cooked char. But wish sammiches are sad. Being excited for ribs(oh boy) and not being able to eat them because they are burnt is well just sad. C’mon guys, we love you, pick it back up!

Start with the good: –Prices are very reasonable. –The sausage sandwich was great(had spinach on it… It was great) Now the bad: –For as slow as it was it seemed to take a long time. –Wife ordered a New York steak. They didn’t have any so she took the filet mignon. She asked medium rare. It was medium at best in some spots, well done in others. No seasoning. This was probably the worst steak she’s ever had. Even a steak cooked by a bind-drunk man without a watch wouldn’t taste this bad. –The fried ravioli were unforgettable only because how gross they were. No real flavor other than the breaded part that was fried. Would I go back? Yes, but never for the steak.

The good: grilled chicken and burgers are very tasty. Note that I *like* well done burgers, however — if you don’t, you will probably be disappointed. The bad: their ribs are really fatty. Not cooked long and slow enough to really have it melt out and make the cartilage soft. They taste fine, but they are just cooked at slightly too high of a temperature. The ugly: their delivery guys are pigs. It’s horrible. Every time I walk by here, the creepy guys sitting outside waiting to deliver food have some gross, off-color comment to make about women, and not infrequently something to say about the appearance of some of the girls who go to the high school next door. Nick’s needs to realize that when these men are on their property and working for them, they represent the business. It makes me uncomfortable enough not to get food there anymore — I don’t want them delivering to my house, but I don’t like waiting to pick my food up anymore either, because they are hanging around.

So, let’s start with the good: 1. Our food was super late, but the delivery guy was apologetic. 2. The«cheese fries» were soggy(to be expected with delivery) and included a small condiment cup of cold cheese sauce– not enough to actually constitute cheese fries 3. The cheeseburger was EXTREMELY dry, chewy, and charred. I couldn’t even taste the cheese, just the charred taste. Was WAY overcooked– asked for medium, got well, well done. 4. As for the cheese dog, see above. 5. Filet Mignon sandwich was just as chewy as the burger was dry. 6. Chicken wings, again, were VERY charred, literally couldn’t taste the«sweet» flavor. Were charred on the outside, but RAW on the inside– ate one bite and couldn’t eat any more for fear of salmonella. Was like licking a dirty grill. I have never been so dissatisfied with a meal. My boyfriend and I ordered in to celebrate, and couldn’t even eat most of the meal.

This is just based off of the one and only time I’ve been here. Had the Chicken & Baby Back Rib Combo Platter. It came with Fries & Cole Slaw. The fries were just ok needed some seasoning very bland. The Cole Slaw wasn’t homemade not that they said it was but I think it was made in some factory somewhere. It was very generic. The meats were cooked well but lacked flavor. The BBQ sauce on them is just alright. I’m a food pro work in the BBQ industry and I’m hard to please when it comes to BBQ. I will give this place a second try. Go for a sandwich I hear they are pretty good at Nick’s.

The ribs are definitely finger-licking good. (Which was important, because we were not given nearly enough napkins in our takeout bag! Props to The Bottle Shop for always being generous about handing out paper towels!) I got the Baby Back Ribs/Chicken Wings Combo — the ribs definitely won. The wings were good. The fries were just okay — but my friend made the right choice in substituting the fries for onion rings. Ohm nom… It’s not Sweet Lucy’s — but it’s right around the corner, and a tasty neighborhood option. I’ll be back to try several other items on the menu that sounded tasty… and take them right back to The Bottle Shop!
