A dining destination
Plymouth offers unique mix of culinary styles, flavors and taste
E.G. Nick's
500 Forest Ave.
Plymouth

One of the most popular places in
town is always E.G. Nick's on Forest
Street where owners Tony Belli and
Frank Agostini are known for great food
and for great entertainment all year.
E. G. Nicks boasts an extensive list of
specially-brewed craft beers and
unique cocktails, along with an impres-
sive list of premiumwines.
The menu includes items like the
new Caprese ravioli, with a kale and
pesto sauce that brings diners back
again and again. The exceptional flat-
bread pizzas offer unique toppings like
bacon, lettuce and tomato or Caesar
salad along with the expected usual
pepperoni and cheeses. The exception-
al flatbread crust on these treats has
made them one of the biggest sellers on
the late-night and lunch menu, Agostini
said. The imaginative new dishes like
the pear and spinach salad added to the
menu have drawn rave reviews from
regulars.
The menu still includes the cus-
tomer-favorite planked whitefish, cho-
sen as the best in the state by food crit-
ics and the award-winning spare ribs,
Bang-Bang Shrimp and bourbon pot
roast nachos.
Starting later this fall, Agostini said
the menu will include a selection of
gluten free and vegan dishes, which are
becomingmore andmore popular.
Local diners know that the kitchen
often offers lunch specials, using fresh
ingredients and weekends almost
always include dinner specials, allow-
ing Agostini to demonstrate some of the
culinary creativity that he has dis-
played with his various TV appear-
ances.
Meals range from $10 to $20 or so

known for the varied menu, family-
friendly atmosphere and spirit of fun,
