Hey there! Went to Nikki's place this past weekend with my wife and my son and I'll tell you, it…read moredidn't disappoint. I've been wondering for a while where to get some good stick to your ribs so food, so when my wife told us that Nikki's Place reached out to her to come try some authentic soul food, I had to join her. We had to make sure to get an array of different things to try as much as possible. So we ordered.. smothered pork chops, fried catfish and shrimp, lemon butter chicken wings, red rice, Collard greens, Lima beans, black eyed peas, cornbread, candied yams, mac and cheese, and some onion fries.. with some sweet tea. I want to tell you, every bite I took had me closing my eyes and smiling. My only complaint was the lima beans were a little bit salty, but when I ate it with everything else it didn't really matter. The lemon butter fried chicken wings were absolutely amazing. I have not tasted anything like that in my life. You can't go there and not get them. You need these wings. I'd also like to say that all the sides are meat-free , so vegetarians come get some . We ate till we were full, and we had enough to take home as well. We took an order of bread pudding home for dessert and that was absolutely delicious too. Overall absolutely great food. The staff took care of us very well. Highly recommended!

There's nothing that reminds me more of growing up in the south more than southern cooking. Nikki's…read morePlace will certainly make you feel like a part of a southern family. This authentic taste of soul food is on par to what I grew up eating at my grandma's house. Everything from smothered pork chops with fried okra to fried chicken and collard greens. Not to mention they're amazing yams. Their legacy, their hold on tradition and the ongoing consistency is what keeps me going back.

The price was $14.99 and my wife opt for the bacon breakfast meal for $13.99 which seems steep due to they only give you three strips of bacon. Overall, the food was good. Just need better customer service..

I ordered a variety of food so I could take it home and enjoy a few meals. The yams are simply divine, buttery and sweet. The turkey dressing was so satisfying! The turkey wing was served with rice and was ladled with gravy. So delicious and tender! The ribs honestly could stand alone with out any sauce. The house smoked ribs have so much love and knowledge in each bite. The mac and cheese sells out, so be prepared to get in line early. The potato salad was tasty. The fried chicken was crispy and delicious. The dinners come with house made corn bread, wrapped lovingly with parchment paper. The cake was moist and delicious! I got the butter pecan cake and I can't wait to try all the other desserts!

Food portion was a bit too large for me because I just wanted a little bite for lunch, that was more a dinner plate than lunch. Then no substitution when I'm willing to pay to substitute makes no sense cuz I didn't want rice. Cornbread was dry, chicken tastes cheap, potato salad was too much and watery. I think this could have been a better experience and with some adjustments I think it can be. I love supporting small business but this experience did not make me want to come back.

I added a bit of salt and pepper and it was good to go after that! I get that this food truck is all about the Mac and cheese and keeping it real. It just needed a bit more spice for me.

I really thought I was going to have some good soul food. But I soon felt like I was being robbed…read more Dinners come with two sides but if you want collards or Mac and cheese it will cost you an extra 8.00. (3.99 each) why? Soul food is not soul food without collards and mac and cheese. Just add it to the menu price and not make it a surcharge. They had no sweet tea and no cornbread for the greens. Gratuity was added ( which is NOT a big deal) but they actually charge you an extra 3% service charge for the use of the toast system which is their computer! cash or credit you get charged 3%. Really? That is just plain ridiculous. robbing the patrons is not a good idea. Oh did I mention someone was smoking weed and the smell came into the dining area? The servers on the other hand are great. They smile and are friendly. two of us spent 98.00. We do not mind spending 100.00 for lunch Food was good but not worth 98.00
