An Original Nicky's Vietnamese Sandwiches has debuted on Avenue A at 13th Street... EVG reader dwg shared these photos from last night...
The Nicky's logo matches up to the one that's out on Lorimer Street in Williamsburg.
As you may recall, there once (circa 2009) was a Nicky's Vietnamese Sandwiches on Second Street just off Avenue A. The family that owned the Nicky's then sold the business, and it became Vicky's in 2011.
THEN. Vicky's closed in 2013. THEN! The Vicky's became a Nicky's, but it wasn't the original Nicky's that was here. Then the not-original Nicky's closed in 2015.
ANYWAY. In the process of trying to find out if this outpost is from the folks who ran the FIRST Nicky's on Second Street (as well as the now-closed location on Nassau Street).
The corner space on Avenue A and 13th Street was home to Inkstop Tattoo, which closed last summer after 21 years here. Owner Eric Rignall is now working out of Long Island City.

I walked by and saw them putting the space together the other day and was so excited to see it's a small business. I will eat there today!
Yes, it’s the same family who started on 2nd street as well as their Grand Street, Brooklyn location.
Holy cow this is great news!
Nicky's has become the Ray's Pizza of our times. #famousoriginalnickys
Yes!I've missed their sandwiches!
Yaaaay! Have missed their banh mi sammies!
I tried it. Great sandwich and friendly staff! So happy to have a new casual place to eat in the neighborhood. I'm going back again today.
