The owners, brothers Chris and Matt Henry, decided to reopen the venue after their restaurant and bar next door, The Village Tap, was consistently reaching capacity and additional space was needed to accommodate the overflow.<\/p>\n<p>While Nick\u2019s will be serving essentially the same menu as the Village Tap \u2013 including the original \u201cNick\u2019s Rib Room\u201d ribs, voted as the city\u2019s best ribs in the local \u201cFort Wayne Readers\u2019 Choice\u201d competition \u2013 the ambiance will be a bit softer and more subdued than its sister restaurant next door. And though the former Nicks\u2019 Martini &#038; Wine bar was well known for its local jazz and blues acts, this new version will feature a finer dining atmosphere with fewer live performances. The Henry brothers do intend to bring in live acts periodically, including an evening with well-known local crooner Chris Worth on May 9. Perhaps as a nod to nostalgia, Worth opened the original Nick\u2019s Martini &#038; Wine Bar in 2014.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe intend to let Nick\u2019s evolve into what the neighbors want,\u201d says Chris Henry. \u201cWhile we want to provide a quieter and finer dining experience for those who love our ribs and steaks, hardly a day goes by when I\u2019m not asked to bring back the live jazz and blues acts. So, we\u2019ll just quietly re-open Nick\u2019s and see how the neighborhood responds.<\/p>\n<p>The Henrys named the bar \u201cNick\u2019s\u201d because, as older local diners will remember, the restaurant was once known as Nick\u2019s Rib Bar, and later as Nick &#038; Von\u2019s Rib Room, named after Nick Stamanis and Von Filippou, two Greek cousins who emigrated to the U.S. in the 1950s. Many Fort Wayne locals still refer to the restaurant simply as \u201cNick\u2019s.\u201d And so it shall be.<\/p>\n<p>Hours will be Thursday through Saturday, 4 to 10 p.m. A full bar is available. Families are welcome.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityoffw\/eastview_pufferbelly_680.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Eastview on State Boulevard toward the Pufferbelly overpass.
