This is a very good North Indian spot. Even though the style is North India this is probably the only place in the area where you can get bhel puri which was quite delicious. The chole and dal makhani are quite good as well.

Friendly owners. Fast service.
We ordered chana masala and tandoori roti. None of the items had any taste. They add lot of color to their food but has absolutely no taste. They charged $30 for roti and Chana masala.

Ordered pick up and person at front desk had AirPods in, very unfriendly when I arrived and felt like he was annoyed I was there. I live here and rarely come to this side of town, but based on my experience was sad to see this is how this business treats customers. Locals and visitors- I would recommend taking the extra 10 min and driving to curry n grill towards the Y. They make quality food and are always super friendly— skip Nikki’s. Nikki’s is a TOURIST SCAM imo.

Not at all good service by the staff. The food is not even worth. Also the behaviour of the staff is rude. I suggest not to visit the place.

Not at all indian food.Being indian i knw how fresh indian food is.
Although i tried to order the freshest item supposed to be in the menu which is Tandoori chicken but you guys served atleast a week old chicken.
But i shud give 100/100 for cleverness since you only mixed 4 old chicken pieces out of 6 ??
Plus cherry on the cake was your service.
You guys are lucky i didnt got sick thanks to my metabolism else someone for sure was paying me back in thousands of dollars.

We went to Nikkis for a lunch buffet on a long weekend. Food was really bad.. most of the food were ready to eats reheated from Costco.. price was so high 23 dollars was not worth for hard paneer, chicken.. reheated frozen rotis.. not one dish was good. Dessert was mango puree mixed with frozen fruits. They are just taking advantage that there are not many Indian restaurants around and people don't have a choice.. ambience is ok.. you can go there if you don't have any other option.

Very expensive for small portions. The main dishes don’t even come with rice or naan which is very out of the norm for Indian restaurant, especially considering the price. They charge a 18% service fee on all dine in orders and rang me up as dine in even though I ordered take out. And then they gave me an incorrect dish, and no silverware or napkins. I won’t be back.
