"An inflatable Grinch on the front porch greets visitors and the whole place is dressed to the nines for the holiday season. Slip into one of five festive themed rooms for mulled wine served in a reindeer mug and a plate of tacos. Walk-ins are welcome." - Justine Jones
"Happy hour at Nico’s in Uptown runs daily from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. Enjoy $8 house margaritas, $5 Pacifico taps, and $2 off specialty margaritas and cocktails. Food options including nachos, chips and queso, and quesadillas seal the deal." - Alex Lodner
"Nico’s cozy, two-decker porch patio is a great spot for tacos and margaritas on Hennepin Avenue." - Justine Jones
"In Uptown, Nico’s Tacos is decked out with twinkling lights, baubles, and even live Christmas trees; I can catch Grinch appearances and try specialty cocktails like the 'Miracle on 25th Street,' made with local Crooked Waters brandy, spiced ginger, and agave in a meringue foam." - Justine Jones
"While most places go the beef route, Nico’s birria tacos are made with lamb in the traditional Michoacán style. Go big and order the birria as a quesadilla." - Cinnamon Janzer
