Nica's 320

My family went to this new restaurant in the Crossroads (about where Southwest Blvd. turns into 19th street) for my dad's birthday. It's new (actually, it used to be way out South, but jumped at the opportunity to move downtown) and is located where Shiraz used to be. It's kind of a Cajun-fusion, eclectic mix of random dishes and flavors. The menu is a little overwhelming, but basically, you choose an entree and then choose a "flavor" in which to have it prepared (i.e. sweet Thai or Caribbean). They have several build-your-own options like pizza, mac'n'cheese (you know what I ordered!!) or salad, plus some different entrees like steak or pasta. It's something I haven't yet seen at a restaurant and an interesting idea. The interior is very midtown, with its exposed brick walls and narrow corridor. It even sports a back room with an 8-foot projected TV screen. We had great service and when my dad's pizza order was miss-topped, the owner came out to apologize, buy his pizza, and send him home with a corrected one to make up for it. Oh--and they also serve breakfast. Click here for the link to their menu.
