Original Nicky’s - Broad Channel

I've only gotten one thing here so far, the duck sandwich, several times. It is so sublime that I have yet to try anything else, although I did get a pork sandwich once for my friend, who liked it. The duck meat is juicy, delicious, perfect. Its quite out of the way for me, so I typically jump on a Citibike from elsewhere in the East Village just for this sandwich. I suppose I'll have to try a few more items. Eventually. But man I love this sandwich!

Dirty restaurant with visible roach bait in the corners. Counter filled with random stuff. Looks like a hoarder’s desk. One employee, an older lady who is doing everything. Worst powdery milk tea I’ve had (and GROSSLY overpriced). I ordered 2 banh mi sandwiches which were not good; the meat did not taste fresh. I couldn’t hear kitchen sounds or cooking sounds. The meat tasted like it was pre-cooked and heated up. The sandwiches were also overpriced for what it was. Never going here agai … – show

Get the pork banh mi! I’m Vietnamese and these taste like the ones my grandma used to make…AKA delicious! The people who own the place are so kind and it’s so good

Duck is must try and the boss lady is the nicest person in the neighborhood

Ordered a beef pho, cost $12 and it was trash. If you need some pho go over to sao mai one block away. Great pho for $13
