    Was over at Matthews Festival around dinner time today and got a to-go dinner from Miki's. I had eaten breakfast here many times and always liked it, so I thought I'd try dinner. Got the lasagna special, with garlic bread, and side salad. Very good.

    Ruben and yams. Very good!

    Great variety of food. Service is always quick and courteous. I usually get the Reuben which is very good. Comes with one side. There's about 15-20 different sides to choose from. This place is a good 'go-to' spot.

    I came here with my friend Jenny Massad for breakfast Sunday morning a week before Christmas. I enjoyed PERFECT over-medium eggs with my crispy bacon while Jenny had savory country ham alongside her fluffy omelette. THE COFFEE WAS EXCELLENT! I understand lunch is pretty good too, especially the chicken tenders. From what I see, it looks like a great spot to grab a meat and two veg kind of deal. Simple, tasty breakfast and great service at a reasonable price. Recommend!

    We discovered this family-run comfort eats joint late Saturday morning purely by chance, finding a long line at Breuggers. What a nice find! Although too late for breakfast, our lunch was superb starting with the homemade piping hot macaroni and cheese. The corn beef and cabbage was delicious, with thinly sliced lean meat and perfectly steamed cabbage. The country style steak was tender and tasty as were the other sides lima beans, green beans and collards. Yeast rolls or corn bread rounds things out but were just okay. The lack of real butter was disappointing. Service was friendly and attentive. The dining room is simply decorated but roomy and comfortable. Sanitation rating was an impressive 97.5. It appeared that, on this day anyway, most of its workers were family members starting with the involved owner who roamed from table to table, checking on customers. Those that enjoy simple Greek-esque diners that serve up fresh comfort food in large quantities will appreciated this place.

    1st time trying Mikkis Found it after we were told of a 30 minute wait at Metro. Walked in and seated immediately. Prices were great, service was excellent and fast. Ordered a Hamburger breakfast and the portions were large, a rarity these days. I recommend everyone try this unknown gem.

    Huge omelette, friendly staff, old school good.

    Huge omelettes, friendly, staff, good, old-fashioned old-school breakfast. Great fluffy biscuits.

    Chicken Pita.

    We were the area and were looking for a new restaurant that we've never tried. Doom yourself a favor: go try this place My Chicken Pita with a side of collard greens was delicious. My husband enjoyed his chicken salad sandwich and we will def be return customers.

First impression was good. The restaurant itself looked clean and family-oriented. It had a diner-like feel. We ordered breakfast. (Breakfast is served all day.) Our server was very pleasant, attentive and friendly. I ordered one chocolate chip pancake with strawberries and whipped cream, and a turkey sausage patty. My husband had an omelet with hash browns and a biscuit. Overall, we thought everything was very good. My husband said he prefers his hash browns more browned and crunchy; and that his biscuit could have been a little better, but he was still pleased with his meal. I have no complaints about my pancake and turkey sausage. The thing I liked most about this place was that there were many choices on the menu, and the prices were reasonable. Finally, a place you can enjoy that has good food, a nice atmosphere and won't cost you an arm and a leg. This is closest to a real diner that I've eaten at in a long time. As we waited for our food to come out (which didn't take long at all), we noticed other waitstaff delivering amazing-looking food to tables. Our mouths were watering!! We will definitely be back. A very enjoyable experience.

He double-checked that the order was correct and made sure I had extra utensils, condiments, and everything we needed. That level of service really stands out. It meant a lot to me because this was something special I was doing for my team, and Sean helped make sure it went smoothly. Thank you again! Although I didn't get pictures of the food this time, everything was amazing. I will definitely be back and will take pictures next time. Please check them out, won't be disappointed.

Typically, when someone from a restaurant reaches out to me about my review, especially when they are not 5 star, I instantly become skeptical. However, this owner made me feel comfortable to share my thoughts and explain how my visit went before anything else. Over the years, I have received tons of owners offering me a free meal in exchange for my integrity but I could tell this owner was extremely genuine and wanted to make sure my voice was heard. The initial post will remain the same but I wanted to amend some of the initial remarks including the service. The first time I tried this place, I received service that was not in alignment to the core values and standards this restaurant upholds, which, I am human and I have worked in food service for years so trust me, I get it. Since being back twice since my initial visit, I have been treated like family. The service has been up to par and the staff has been incredibly friendly. As far as the ambiance, it gives the feel of an old diner which makes it charming and lovable. Perhaps, some restorations and furnishings can be done nothing that isn't manageable. Lastly, I wanted to make sure to do a thorough review of the menu so when I went back twice after my initial review, I tried a menu item for each the breakfast menu and the dinner menu. The food was great! It was favorable, warm and packed with fresh ingredients. I tried the ribs and Mac and cheese as well as a breakfast plate on two separate occasions without letting the restaurant know I was coming back for a remake. The only thing I wasn't super thrilled about was the Mac and Cheese, other than that it was good. It goes to saying that their standards are commendable as they do care about their service, food and experience of the customers.

I got a Vicious today although I wanted a Fat Boy. It was beautiful. The fry was golden, jalapeño biscuit was gorgeous, and it was slathered in gravy. I expected a flavor explosion and it was a dud. The Chicken had absolutely no flavor, the beautiful biscuit was flat and the gravy tasted like Libby's fresh out the can. I was so disappointed. It was indeed flat. I expected so much more.

Biscuits and gravy are a southern staple and rarely have I had any that were really good, except here at Vicious Biscuit. Biscuits are their business. The most important elements are the biscuits and the gravy. Additions are many and varied, but if the basic two items are not both excellent, you will have a disappointing experience. The Vicious biscuit is the size of a hamburger bun. It is soft and there are bits of spice in the dough. These biscuits do not fall apart, but stay together and serve to soak up the wonderful sausage gravy that is poured on top of it. You can order just a biscuit with gravy for $8. And if you are timid, start here. Otherwise, there are add-ons like very good fried chicken, shrimp and grits, ham, pulled smoked pork, crab, bacon, fried shrimp. fried eggs and other combos. Super choices, so take time to study the menu which is extensive. Portions are great, very generous. I had their Vicious ($12). It was their Cheddar jalapeño biscuit, crispy fried chicken, maple sausage gravy, cowboy candy, with maple syrup drizzle. I was hesitant as to the maple syrup, but it is just enough to give accent to the gravy, but not super sweet. Wife had Fried Green 'Maters ($9.50) which were four fried green tomatoes, their signature pimento cheese with a pickled okra garnish. She could not eat it all, so I helped finish off the lone tomato and a bit of the cheese. Very good. Vicious Biscuit is more that a meal, it is an experience, even a journey, through this traditional southern staple, biscuits and gravy. Enjoy the trip. We might see you there.

Inside however they also have a market featuring lots of local products, and a sit down cafe serving up salads and toasted sandwiches. I came in here on a quiet Sunday afternoon and we elected to sit outside in their walled in patio area. It was a pleasant place to sit and our service was prompt and friendly. For my sandwich I chose the turkey chipotle bacon without the tomatoes. The sandwich tasted great and the bread was toasted nicely. If I have one complaint it's that for $14.00 I think the sandwich could have been a bit bigger, or maybe I was just too hungry because I scarfed it down in an instant! Still the chips that accompanied it were a good snack and I enjoyed my meal. This is definitely a good spot to grab a lunch, I wish I had more time and I would have enjoyed the opportunity to browse their market. Matthews has a lot of great locally owned spots and this is for sure one of them.

Her attentive service never missed a beat, and the experience was so delightful that I made a point of sharing my compliments with the manager on duty before we left. The coffee was exactly the kind that feels like home, familiar, comforting, and somehow better because it arrived with such great service. Then came the waffle , which was both delicious and notably HUGE, the kind of breakfast that makes you wonder why you ever order anything else. Between the warm welcome , Briana's outstanding service, and a meal that absolutely hit the spot , this visit checked every box. I would absolutely return.
