A new tapas bar is calling Forsyth County home.
Nido Cafe opened earlier this month at the Vickery Village mixed-use development at 5755 Clarion Street in Cumming.
The menu features tapas, Spanish wines, a chocolate menu and coffee drinks. The breakfast offerings include a strawberry, basil and brie egg sandwich, breakfast tacos with chorizo, avocado toast and the donut trio accompanied by milk, dark and white chocolate for dipping. For lunch and dinner, tapas include honey goat cheese stuffed piquillos, lobster stuffed mushroom caps, crab cakes on basil and lamb lollipops on rosemary, as well as a kid-friendly tapas menu.
The extensive dessert menu includes Chocolate Soup garnished with cinnamon croutons and vanilla ice cream, chocolate and churro sticks, peanut butter chocolate molten cake, peanut butter chocolate fondue, the OMG Chocolate Espresso Cookie and chocolate-dipped bacon.
Nido seats 65 including a heated terrace that features live music on selected nights.
The restaurant is owned by Kevin Neel, who previously owned LaCrema Tapas & Chocolate in Rosemary Beach, Fla., and his longtime friends Jac Crawford and Bill Curis.
The restaurant opening is one of several big moves for Vickery Village, which was purchased by new ownership in July 2016. The owners have announced the expansion of Cherry Street Brewing, several retail shops and Happy Belly Kitchen, a food truck concept that will open its first brick and mortar store at Vickery Village in summer 2017.
Nido is open from 7 a.m.-5 p.m. Mondays, 7 a.m.-9 p.m. Tuesdays-Thursdays, 7 a.m.-10 p.m. Fridays-Saturdays and 8 a.m.-5 p.m. Sundays.
