Food & Value
If you’re craving a burger experience that elevates a classic favorite, look no further than Nicky T’s Sliders. For an additional $2, you can transform these delightful sliders into a full-sized burger that bears a striking resemblance to a gourmet version of the iconic Big Mac. The burger is built with two perfectly smashed patties that are juicy and flavorful, layered with melty cheese, crisp lettuce, pickles, and a special sauce that ties everything together. The brioche bun adds a touch of elegance, giving you that familiar fast-food taste but with a refined, craft touch. The result is a burger that feels nostalgic yet fresh, comforting yet indulgent, and definitely worth every bite. Whether you stick with the sliders or go for the full burger, Nicky T’s is a must-try for any burger enthusiast.
Overall Experience
Cherry Street Brewpub at Halcyon offers a dining experience with fresh, high-quality ingredients and a price point that aligns with what you receive. The Nicky T’s Sliders were enjoyable, with flavors that were satisfying and well-executed. While the burger was a good meal, it didn’t quite reach the level that leaves you craving it and eager to return, lacking that irresistible quality that would make it a must-have on future visits. The search for the ultimate smash burger continues.
