I truly thought Nikki's was closed and was very pleased to find out otherwise. I had my Nikki's usual Cheeseburger all the way add bacon with onion rings. The food is always great. The restaurant and restrooms were clean. The wait staff was courteous and attentive. I was glad to see Nikki's was still open and as far as the staff I spoke to knew there is no plans to close in the distant future.
Best food and service from sweet Linda Holladay!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I really like the ambiance, the theme of the diner. The food was good. I would go there again. I only wish they had milk shakes or maybe fresh pies.
Awesome place with a ton of history. The most delicious food and yes they have the best onion rings on the planet! Please stop here especially if your from out of town you want regret it.
Fried chicken liver wrapped in bacon, mmmm good! Great cheese burgers and club house too! Service was awesome and faster than any service I've ever had. Even faster than a mexican restaurant. Have no idea how they made all of it that fast.
I love this place,been going there sense the '80's . The food ,like always delicious. From the home made onion rings,f.f. burgers hamburger steak with onion & gravy....the best.
For us locals this place has been a mainstay in Chattanooga for several decades. I really hate to see that this place will be closing sometime in the near future due to the City rezoning this area (which I think is whack). Owner said they weren't really sure when that time will come so I would recommend eating there before that sad day comes. Now to the good; you can't beat their fried shrimp, their onion rings.......service was very good.
We just enjoyed shrimp and onion rings at Nikki’s. It was super delicious
Classic diner. So glad I experienced as a child. I was able to take my husband here fourteen years later.
The shrimp were large, lightly fried and the onion rings were mild and piled high. Delicious food at it’s best.

love this place ..... great food
The iconic restaurant is still filling the house at lunch. Very friendly service and good food. Worth saying we got in before the place got bulldozed for a condo building.
When this place gets crowded, good luck figuring out how to get a table. It's like they've never heard of people just writing their names on a list like every other restaurant. Guests just pour out of the door and block every available space and hope that everyone remembers and honors the order that they walked in the door. I'm just not that interested in waiting 2 hours and arguing about who was next to be seated for some onion rings.
Nikkis has the best shrimp dinner. Excellent gulf shrimp dinner at very reasonable prices. Such a shame it will close soon due to redevelopment.
A classic and iconic diner, perched on stringers ridge overlooking the city below. Loads of authentic nostalgia and memories that go back a lifetime. Burgers, sandwiches, house battered onion rings, fried seafood and the last place around you can get a basket of fries and hush puppies with frog legs. The fare won't be winning any Michelin stars, but that's not why we love places like this. Places like these are few and far between, and remind us of more honest times. I hope this one is here to remind us for years to come.
