I had the opportunity to stop by Nikki's place last month while visiting Orlando. I always try to patronize a black owned business when travel. I picked my cousin up from the airport and she and I went straight to Nikki's. When we arrived, Tokyo greeted us and let us come on in and sit down although they were not officially open just yet. Tokyo was absolutely amazing from the moment we arrived until we departed. Tokyo took exceptionally good care of us. Nikki's had a lot of call in orders, so the place wasn't crowded at all, which I enjoyed. It was my cousin's birthday weekend, so we ordered an array of food. The food was delicious! The meals were huge in proportion. I took a bread pudding, and my cousin took cake to go. In all honesty, the bread pudding was not the best. It was too wet and soggy, but hey we all have our days where our food didn't come out like expected. Overall, I would definitely dine at Nikki's again especially if Tokyo is there!

A truly unique dining experience in Orlando. Nikki serves traditional soul food dishes in a cute "hole in the wall" restaurant that only adds to the experience. The service staff are super friendly and helpful and ready to offer suggestions on what to eat. We had the oxtail and rib tips and wow! they were absolutely awesome. The serving sizes are massive and the dishes are bursting with flavor. They have a big selection of desserts and I recommend the banana pudding. Nikki's is a bit out of the way, but I recommend making the time to come here and try their food and wonderful service.

Nikki’s Place is absolutely amazing! My husband is from Georgia, and he said this is the only place he’s been to that truly made him feel like home. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted so warmly and made to feel very comfortable. They took their time helping us decide on our meal, which we really appreciated. The food was full of flavor and cooked with real soul. The lunch special was very affordable, and we’ve officially found our new go-to place to eat. Highly recommend!

This is my first time eating here and the entire experience was so wonderful. The staff was very sweet and the food was delicious. Its in the old neighborhood that i grew up in and i felt nostalgic driving to the spot. It a small place but its full of history and love. This is all reflected in the staff and definitely in the food. I cleaned my plate and my wifes plate. The prices are definitely good for what you are getting and your belly will thank you.

If you want southern spuldfood dont go anywhere else. They're so good they will run out and they are family owned and operated so you will feel welcomed from the moment you arrive.

Oh y'all did y'all thing for Sunday dinner! Niko was such a sweetheart on helping me figure out what to order. I forgot to post the meatloaf dinner for hubby and the cornbread muffins. I got the catfish dinner w/ yellow rice. That pineapple cake make you wanna slap somebody! These dinners were chef's kiss!

Coming to Orlando to dog sit for my daughter's and found this treasure on Google. The service was the best and the food was perfect. Portions and flavor top tier. Definitely will visit again if I'm in the area also recommend.

I came here today with my boyfriend, I was visiting him to FL. and I was looking for some soul food. (Coming from Atlanta) I stay on soul food lol and I bumped into this suggestion through Google. And let me just say EVERYTHING and everyone was so inviting and the food was soooo delicious! Wish they had this place here in Atl. I can brutally say Nikki's has been the top #1 soul food I've had from every state I've tried and tasted this place has the trophy! Omg everything was so good! I recommend this 👌 👏 if you've haven't been here! IM DEFINITELY going back before my bf comes back home! Thank you to my waitress im so sorry I suck at names. Seems she hurt her foot. (Hope she recuperates soon) she was just amazing! She reminded me of Megan the stallion. 😁 she was so great and her service was top notch! Thank you ♥️ so much for the welcoming and great food alongside with the friendliest people!

We wanted to eat like locals and did just that! Nikki's Place is a nice stop on our tour of the area. The soul food menu was great. We enjoyed the southern items (neckbones, particularly)! The food portions were great, especially for the prices. Our table ordered 4 separate meals: 1. BBQ wings, w/ yellow rice, string beans and Mac n cheese with a corn muffin. 2. Dark fried chicken platter, yellow rice, collard greens and Mac n cheese with a corn muffin. 3. Fried cat fish, yellow rice, candied yams, collard greens and corn muffin. 4. Neckbones over white rice, cabbage, black eyed peas and a corn muffin.
