Customer Review Summary

Reviewers most often come for the rotating themed tasting menus, and the Childhood menu is the one described in the most detail, with cheesy beans and egg soldiers singled out as favourites. Close behind are the Seoul, Street Food, Pasta and circus menus, with reviewers calling each dish flavourful, delicious and well themed. The cavatelli and a lemon custard earn individual praise, and cocktail and wine pairings are repeatedly mentioned, with the host explaining each wine. Servers and the front desk are described as attentive, friendly and knowledgeable, and a chef who worked around allergies gets thanks. The caveat comes from one Childhood table: the Cherry Coke Float and a red cocktail topped with candy floss were extremely sweet and heavy, several guests left them unfinished, and the fish course did not capture the fish-finger sandwich it was meant to recall. One group who arrived late says the team still fitted them in.

    “Been wanting to try six by nico for a long time and was worth the wait. Becca my waitress was very attentive and friendly. Chef Christian delivered the flavour. The cavatelli was my favourite savoury but the lemon custard I did a wee happy food dance after the first spoonful. Wonderful treat”

    “This was my first time here, went for the Pasta tasting menu with cocktail pairings. Food was absolutely fantastic (thanks to our chef, Charlie!), taste unbeatable and fantastic value for money. Ambiance is beautiful and music not loud so you can actually talk and have a good time. Service was beautiful, Alfie was so nice and knowledgeable and so nice to talk to. Highly recommend.”
