NICO | Oysters + Seafood sits in the $$$ tier with a French seafood identity and a strong 4.5 Google rating across 1,497 reviews. The review signal is dish-specific: diners call out raw oysters, baked oysters Napoleon-style, scallops, lobster roll, octopus, swordfish, gnocchi, and Baked Alaska rather than offering vague praise.
On Blackbird, NICO is still an early on-chain read: 2 all-time check-ins, first recorded April 7, 2025 and latest April 8, 2025. The busiest check-in days so far are Tuesday and Monday, with a strong Google review profile and a still-developing Blackbird footprint.
The strongest pattern in the highlighted reviews is repeat-worthy seafood with attentive service. One diner drove from Hilton Head and named the octopus as an absolute favorite; another singled out the baked oysters Napoleon-style and Baked Alaska as standouts.
