Location

    With over 20 years of operating experience in restaurants from Manhattan to Manhattan Beach, I am thrilled to be in back in Southern California with my wife and two sons embarking on a new adventure.  We feel that Nick & Sons is going to fill a much needed void in the neighborhood, providing a fresh local gourmet market and delicatessen, an aggressive cheese and charcuterie program, and an exceptional selection of wines.  Above all, genuine hospitality is the foundation of all that we do, thus a relationship with our guest is most valued to us.

    This market is yours as much as it is ours.  We are excited to have you make it your own as it matures through the years.  Your input and concerns are always welcome, please feel free to reach out to us, we would love to hear from you.

    We look forward to inviting you to our new home and making many new friends!
