The authentic Greek food was mouthwatering and exquisite! They provided us with absolutely great customer service. The workers were so kind and really showed that they cared. It was a very friendly environment and we definitely recommend going to eat here!

Had amazing Mussakah. The chicken wings had a good grill flavor. Salad my mom ordered was hardy with bell peppers and mixed greens. Delicious food. Would come again.

A strange invitation, nestled inside a quote for new windows piqued my curiosity. Who is this weirdo who informed me that she worked as a server at a Greek restaurant near my condo? It was a little suspicious but intrigued since that was not what I expected. But, always on the lookout for a great restaurant, I decided to wander over later in the week and peek at the menu. The menu reminded me of my college years at Northeastern University in Boston, living in Allston, where cash was scarce and restaurants plentiful. I remember an easy walk to Comm Ave which led me to a small storefront where we could get Moussaka. It's an eggplant, tomato sauce, seasoned ground beef, topped with béchamel sauce dinner with rice... for five bucks! Funny how taste buds have memory that doesn't age with time because as soon as my Moussaka dinner arrived at my table for one, I was transported back to Allston, Massachusetts and my favorite $5 dinner. Sadly, dinner isn't $5 anymore, but at least I have more cash now than I did then. I am trying to eat low carb so I ordered the asparagus side to stay true to my oft-neglected diet when my efforts were richly rewarded when dinner arrived. My first impression was of the Asparagus, which came covered in spiced olive oil, aromatic, and perfectly cooked. My only complaint was that I wished the serving size was more generous, but the flavor was perfect. Next, my Moussaka would have to pass the test of both time and elation; would I like this as much as I did my first Moussaka love? One bite later, I was in heaven. The elation meter was climbing steadily and the flavors were rekindling thoughts of failed Chemistry tests and sleepy electrical engineering classes. The béchamel sauce was not as creamy as I remembered it and was not as thickly laden upon the amazing ground beef and eggplant base, but it was delicious. "Slow down..." I kept saying to myself, I have a tendency to eat too fast, but it was hard. I was really enjoying my dinner. Erika, my window salesperson whose nighttime gig as a server at Nikki's, was all smiles as she watched from afar as her low-cost lead generation technique worked like a charm, after all, I was there! The staff was very attentive, the restaurant is beautiful, they have both indoor and outdoor seating, and the menu is bountiful enough to satisfy most Greek food aficionados, and they deliver the goods when dinner is served. Go there and ask Erika what the dinner specials are and if there's a sale on hurricane windows, I bet you will be glad you did!

Greek cuisine varies dramatically from place to place. If you want the real deal in authentic home cooking this is the place. Whether you order the moussaka, shrimp saganaki, keftedes or baklava you will be amazed at the flavors of Greece. The chef is superb. Straight out of my grandmother’s kitchen. The hospitality is incredible with Jay taking great care of you giving a passionate explanation of every dish on the menu. Erica also made you feel at home. With magnificent photos of Greece on the walls throughout the restaurant you will enjoy every minute of this experience not to be missed.

Loving the fact that's its on the beach. The scenery was beautiful. My sister and I were treated like family, thanks to Erica and Tony the bartender. THE GREEK FOOD WAS SOOOOOOOO GOOD, and I've never tasted food so well seasoned and satisfying 4 a reasonable price. I mean my experience was so warm and welcoming, I can most definitely assure you guys will not be disappointed, and the portion size is just perfect (no doggie bad) necessary! And I really appreciate the manager 4 explaining 2 us how their ingredients are all Greek authentic. U Can't wait to go back!

While Nikki's may lack the bustling ambience of a well-known Greek restaurant a few miles to the south on A1A, it provides an outstanding menu of favorites for anyone seeking genuine Mediterranean cuisine. We enjoyed a tasty and tender grilled octopus appetizer followed by standard Greek salad then a wonderful gyro plate and moussaka. All this was accompanied by a fine bottle of Greek red wine and a 'dessert' glass of Ouzotini. Customer care and service were impeccable. The upside of a lack of bustling atmosphere is free parking in the condo building where the restaurant is located, on the northwest corner of A1A and Atlantic, a short walk to the beach. Indoor and outdoor seating are available. Be sure to call to get the parking particulars but after you make the reservation expect to get a call from the restaurant offering parking instructions. We'll be back soon to try some of the fish specials and the Greek appetizer plates - and a sweet dessert.

Phenomenal! Made a reservation for our party of 9 and was sat immediately upon arrival. Hummus appetizer was out of this world delicious with everything made from scratch including tzatziki I couldn't get enough of and fresh baked pita. Calamari very good. I ordered the special lamb shank with orzo and oh my orzo! Was that the best bite? Yes, yes it was. Kids loved their cheese pizza. Was not sure about the atmosphere as we prefer a dimly lit restaurant, but the staff seemed to read our mind and lowered the lights a bit to set the mood as we dined. Our server was incredibly warm and friendly. Hubby got a free fresh, delicious baklava to celebrate his bday and it was big enough for everyone to have a bite. I can't wait to come back! This one is a new fave.

We stopped in early evening for dinner. Had the Mezze platter, a tomato/cuke salad, and the Branzino with asparagus sauce. Service was good, food was delish, and they were very informative about the cooking process and ingredients. If you're up for Greek fare it's a good spot! Everything was fresh and cooked to perfection!

Nice place located just between the beach and the intracoastal, good vibes, nice music with indoor and outdoor seating. Upon walking in we got greeted by the restaurant manager, Jay, who repeatedly visited our table making sure everything had met our expectations. Food was excellent and the portions were just right. Definitely try chicken wings for an appetizer.
Our go to local spot for great quality Mediterranean food. The staff are always on top of their game and happy to help! Try the wings, baked then grilled with a delicious lemon sauce!

This place deserves TEN STARS! We made a reservation for 30 minutes ahead and received a phone call from the manager - Jay - to let us know that there is FREE parking in the garage. My mom and I were so well cared for by Jay and our server Erica - every detail was perfect. I'm addition to the amazing dinners pictured below, we started with a spicy feta dip with warm pita bread (basically crack...I'm not even kidding). Classic baklava for dessert - it was perfection. The prices, portions, and people were outstanding - you will not be disappointed!!!
