I’m so mad I didn’t find this place sooner! This is my first time having soul food and literally everything tasted SO DELICIOUS, was very fresh, and hot. Definitely my new go to spot.
The service & food was great. The food itself was good , fresh and hot. We sat in to eat and the wait was definitely short. Staff was really nice and helpful. I would highly recommend coming here to eat. I haven’t had lunch or dinner from here but I would bet on it being great. The pricing is also good here too.
If you looking for some finger licking, soul food like your grandma/auntie (on your daddy side) make… THIS IS THE PLACE TO GO!! Hands down!!I had the smoothered rib tips, yellow rice, candied yams, and Mac and cheese! Wifey had smoothered Turkey necks, white rice, candied yams, and Mac and cheese! Plus all dinners come with corn muffin and the SWEET TEA!!! Better than McD’s and Popeyes!!I will definitely make this my stop everytime I come to Orlando!! Thanks Nikki keep up the delicious cooking and Mike was a great server!!
Not what I expected for a first time, will not return. My white rice was hard and my chicken tasted like fried fish, and cornbread was disgusting. Wasn't very much a fan of the customer service either. I had the most horrible stomach ache for the rest of the day. Apparently "it cost $14.99 plus tax if you want four pieces of fried chicken, so take advantage of the lunch special why you still can." You're not even fully allowed to enter the establishment until you state what you're there for.
After visiting the Orlando area for a well needed mini vacay, I had a taste for a homecooked "southern style" Sunday meal. After Church a friend and I decided to google "fried chicken" and we came across Nikki's. I hit the GPS and voila, we pulled up at Nikki's located right next door to Bethel Church off of Orange Blossom Trail -- It's in a remote location in a predominately African American community. This little place puts their heart and soul into preparing comfort food, just like grand momma used to make. When I saw pig feet on the menu, I knew this was a good place to eat. If you've never tried pig feet, I would ask for a sample before ordering them as it is an acquired taste, a delicacy. My mind was set on fried chicken, collards, sweet potatoes and a good piece of cornbread. For dessert, I opted for the peach cobbler. Overall, the meal was good. What I liked about Nikki's was the sweet warm welcoming from a cute senior aged woman who explained the dishes on the menu. The service was attentive, but there is a bit of wait from the church crowd and the online orders. For those stopping by on a Sunday afternoon expect a wait. My friend couldn't wait to get home to eat and opted to eat in the car, which consisted of fried chicken, "dressing" another word for stuffing, sweet potatoes and a side of potato salad. She immensely enjoyed the meal. As for me, I waited to get back to the house to sit down at the table and enjoy every bite. I tried some of the potato salad, a homerun! The chicken was perfectly fried, not too bready and moist. I didn't care for the collards, nor that of the sweet potatoes. In my opinion, they weren't seasoned, a bit on the bland side. The cornbread muffins were deliciously fluffy with corn kernels mixed in. As for the dessert we ordered the sweet potato pie and the peach cobbler which were scrumptious, and not overly sweet. The cobbler was made with a cake filling, rather than a pie dough filling. The pie is an individual serving, and the cobbler you could feed a party of three depending on your appetite. I personally eat very small meals. Overall, we were pretty satisfied with our Sunday meal. Thank you, Nikki's and the cooks who prepared the meal. My next visit to Orlando, I would dine here again but ask the locals for a recommendation for the side dishes. As a side note, take out orders only as dining in was not available at the time. P.S. Tipping is recommended. It's busy and they so deserve it.
While this is only the 1st time being here and only in town for 2 days we wanted home cooking. I played it safe with the bacon breakfast. My husband had the smothered pork chop. Grits we're cooked well and eggs scrambled to our liking. Service was great! Our host was on top of everything and took care of our needs. We were there at 8:30am.
I got the chicken wings lunch combo with greens and sweet potatoes.
This place is a hidden gem. The food was fresh. I will always visit this gem when in Orlando! Great staff and real soul food❤️
eventhough it's been awhile, not disappointed at all,great staff,food on point,hands down best soulfood in town.
If you don't mind your chicken or Pork chops all cooked in the same greater this is definitely the establishment for you.. Meanwhile they've been serving the community since the 90's... Either someone forgot how to or they just don't care. While you're blessing me I want God to blessing your mind and mouth to handle business properly and whomever that's cooking make them stop!They're not able and don't be fooled.I hope this inspires you to change your grease..
