I have been ruined by this place for Chinese food in the best possible way. It was SO DELICIOUS!!…read moreBeing from Texas, my experience with Chinese food is definitely American and at Tops, I was exposed to an entirely different way of eating. For appetizers, we had the tasty, flavorful salt & pepper squid, which I never knew could be anything but chewy, and the prawns on toast, which I want to eat every day! For my meal I had lamb in black pepper sauce. The lamb was so tender and the sauce on point. The noodles were light and flavorful. I also tried my sister's order of chicken with Malay sauce and wow, I want to drink that from the bowl!! My brother-in-law tried the crispy beef and it had a good sweet, spicy sauce and the beef was actually crispy! Highly recommend this restaurant - it is a hidden gem run by the nicest people.

I was feeling confident until the (pretty but clueless) waitress had to go away and check if it was "Meats". The Crispy duck was lovely, nicely done and a good sized portion. Fortunately the Mixed Meats (beef, chicken & duck) with noodles was nice too. I think I should declare at this point: I last came here about15 years ago, and it was a favourite then too! Recommended.

I walk out the door and then a customer calls me back in.. OH THE GIRL behind the counter wants to talk to you. I go back in and the girl then spends 5 minutes accusing me of being a thief, and trying to walk out without paying for my food. I explained 4 times i did pay..NO YOU DIDNT PAY!! she then proceeded to ask me if i did pay how much did i pay? i told her... she then said OH what was your order? i explained... oh sorry my mistake i gave you the wrong food... so having spent 5 minutes humiliating me in public, telling me i had tried to walk out without paying she then played it off as no big deal, its my fault i do this all the time. Awful Awful experience, great food. Alas great food i will never taste again. I would never go back ever again.

I received two £60 vouchers for Nikki Ips restaurant as a Christmas gift in 2023, totalling £120…read more We used one voucher in February and spent around £50. When we asked if we could have the remaining £10 as a voucher for our next visit, Stefan, the manager, was completely unhelpful and insisted we had to spend it all in one go. We ended up buying a drink just to use up the balance and left disappointed. We planned to use the second voucher for our anniversary in August 2024, only to discover it had expired in June 2024--just six months after it was issued! When I called the restaurant and unfortunately spoke to Stefan again, he bluntly informed me there was nothing they could do. He mentioned that other customers had recently called with the same issue, claiming it would have been explained when the voucher was purchased. I found this hard to believe since I had bought vouchers for my parents around the same time, and no such restriction was mentioned. It feels like Nikki Ips is scamming customers with these short expiry dates, and Stefan's dismissive attitude only made the situation worse. I've never encountered a restaurant voucher with such a limited time frame, and it seems like many others have been caught out by this tactic. I would strongly advise avoiding this restaurant--especially if you have to deal with Stefan, who is as unhelpful as they come. Save your money and spend it somewhere that values its customers and doesn't play games with their vouchers.

Nikki Ips is a Chinese restaurant but don't expect spring rolls, prawn crackers or all you can eat…read morebuffets. This place offers more authentic chinese food than the usual chow mein and chop sueys offered elsewhere albeit at a price. A word of warning - try to avoid the ground floor in the Winter. Whenever the front door opens you'll get a blast of cold air so you'll be much more comfortable upstairs. The food is excellent, good quality ingredients and well prepared and the portions are generous enough. All in all this is a decent place to eat but it is pricey (and don't ask if they do prawn crackers!).
