Golden hour hits different when there’s hummus on the table.
From vibrant mezze to perfectly grilled kabobs and refreshing house-made drinks, every meal is better enjoyed on our patio.
See you this week. ☀️

The forecast called for sunshine… and we added Lebanese food, cocktails, and one of the best patios in Portland.
See you outside. ☀️☀️☀️

The hardest decision you’ll make all week.

We don’t know how we got here… 😭🤣💀

Freshly sliced gyro, crisp veggies, creamy feta, and house-made tzatziki all rolled into one perfect bite. 🌯
The only problem? Finishing it before stealing someone else’s fries. 👀

Our Sumac Sour combines bourbon, fresh lemon, honey, and house-made sumac syrup for a tangy twist inspired by one of our favorite Lebanese ingredients.
Available during Portland Highball Week (May 25–31) for $10.

Portland weather really said “actually… one more winter day” 🌧️❄️
Luckily, Knafeh exists.
Warm, crispy shredded phyllo dough layered with creamy ashta, melted mozzarella cheese, pistachios, and sweet syrup… basically the comfort food version of a hug ✨
Cold days are better at Nicholas.

Crispy on the outside. Packed with flavor on the inside. 🤎
Meet our Kibbeh Balls… made with seasoned ground lamb, bulgur wheat, onions, potatoes, and authentic Lebanese spices, then fried to golden perfection. Served with creamy yogurt sauce and fresh lemon for the perfect bite.
A little crunchy. A little savory. A lot addictive.
