Nikis Indian Food

These people call them self Muslim and still they lie smh disgusting spicy food I kept repeating my self I don't want spicy food but no they guy said it not spicy at all sir idk if they guy was making fun or me or he was bullshiting trying to get rid of me never ever coming back to place

How did I not know about this incredible gem! The chicken kharai (has gravy based), chicken chardga (like grilled chicken but fried a bit), bangan borta (eggplant) garlic naan, chicken sheek kebab, gola (beef) kabab was BOMB! All of it. EVERYTHING WAS PERFECT! Service was peaceful, order at the table or reguster and pay at the register :) be patient they make it fresh from scratch family owned business. Ambiance, just a little gem whole in the wall hidden!

I used to come here all the time after work and ordered Chicken Tikka to go. It's been over a decade and I was in the area and really wanted this meal again. The place has not changed and the staff is friendly. The chicken tikka was still good, but as you will see in the picture, I don't think I'd say it was worth it. The naan I remember was so light and fluffy just like a warm pillow of deliciously cooked dough. The naan and garlic naan I received was dense and honestly seemed like it was reheated in the microwave. My memories of Niki's being my fave spot for chicken tikka have been replaced with disappointment. My family was not impressed at all and I felt bad for making them go there when they wanted to try a different place.

Great good thika masala naan. Good. Kabob. Biryani. Chai. Nice matcha at rh. Fashion island

Stop scrolling and GO!!! NOW!!!What can I say, this is one of those reviews that I have been hesitant to give because I don't want my favorite place so busy I can't get in. Yakub (Jacob) NEVER FAILS. This is as authentic as it gets and CONSISTENTLY EXCELLENT. Unlike most other places, your meal is prepared once you order it!! How's that for a novel idea - FRESH MADE, DELICIOUS FOOD! So, if you're in a hurry, call the order in plenty of time in advance. Otherwise, get a seat, place your order and enjoy a mango lassi while he cooks your meal.Everything on the menu is so yummy, however I have my favorites: chicken tika masala, lamb, chicken or goat karahi and garlic naan. It was a pleasure tasting our way through the menu.Yes, it's Santa Ana. Yes, it's a small place. Yes, it's worth it!! Yes, you'll be hooked.Almost forget to mention the special delight of hot plates they bring out for your meal. Not something you would expect for a hidden gem. Then again, everything about Niki's is the best of surprises.

Nikki's always hits the spot! I don't even bother trying to find new Indian food restaurants because this IS the SPOT! Never disappoints and the service is always amazing and friendly

I had another family get together last night and had Nikis provide the meal. The food was amazing! They are consistently great! Don't hesitate to have Nikis cater any family gathering or event! Yakub the owner is the best! Steve

Best pakistani/indian food in the area. Great for take out options. Great service from owner and team. Location not ideal with a lot of homeless people but food is exceptional

Great food & Great service. freshly prepared Authentic Pakistani/Indian food. Between the two of us We ordered 4 different dishes all of them were excellent .I am in Southern California on business for the next 4 days. Plan to go back to the Resturant one more time before I fly back to Salt lake City.

The food is soooo good and filled with so much flavor. It's truly such great comfort food. It's always fresh and brought out in a timely manner. The service is is also really good and hospitable. I always love coming to Niki's me and my boyfriend enjoy it so so much!
