    This was our first taste of Detroit style pizza on our trip! We got a pepperoni pizza, with half feta. It was SO good. Who knew feta belongs on pizza! We went mid day on a Sunday, and it was not very busy, but it should be! The pizza is so good! We ordered the pizza to go, so we could enjoy it by the water. They did tell us it would be 10/15 minutes, and it was more like a 30 minute wait. However, it is a deep dish pizza, so not all that shocked. Just wanted to note, that it will probably be a longer wait than expected. It was a very cute, and a comfortable vibe. It was a very

    Nice little gem in Greek town while the main Greek town street is being renovated. Our server was great and patient with our big party and food was delicious. Great place to get the famous "flaming cheese" and the Detroit square pizza

    Finally got to try Detroit style pizza at its hometown! Niki's had lots of different options and since they specialize in Greek cuisine, they also had Greek dishes. The Greek salad was massive, with lots of beets, lettuce, feta cheese, peppers, and house Greek dressing. It also came with pita bread The chicken wings were crispy and the breading was on the thicker side. We got bbq sauce on the side but you could also choose from honey mustard as well. Since we wanted to try a few different flavors, we could get a large half and half pizza with two different options. We got half feta cheese and half super, which was a combo of veggies and your choice between lamb, beef, and bacon. Unfortunately they got our order wrong twice so we couldn't get what we wanted but on the bright side, we ended up with more pizza than we expected. Sad I didn't get to try the lamb as I requested but the pizza itself was tasty and loaded with toppings. The slices are thick as well so even two slices got me very full! Service is on the slower side and our waitress disappeared for a little bit, but was friendly. There are plenty of indoor seats and the decor is modern, with lots of wooden accents and vibrant paintings. The parking is street parking only and the side streets weren't the safest to walk so make sure to bring some buddies with you!

    2 Two Slice Special

    Hands down best Za in Downtown, Went in for lunch, on a Friday. The place was desolate, nevertheless greeted with warmth and smiles from the servers. I was greeted quickly and had my pick of any booth or table. They had TVs on but they were not loud or jarring, just some white-noise in the background, and i bet if i had asked to change the channel to something i wanted to watch they would've obliged. I order the 2 slice special, which is two slices of their famous pepperoni or cheese with a Greek salad. On the salad I asked for extra olives, at no extra charge! The pizza: Fluffy, crunchy, scrumptious crust. Great cheese melt and pull on every bite. A robust and hearty red sauce that filled every bite. And the pepperoni had a delicate, yet tangy flavor that echoes through the palette. So good i almost ordered a whole pizza to go!! But we practice restraint in 2025. The salad: Nothing to right home about. Except I appreciate extra olives was no extra charge, and their olives do have the pits in em, just an fyi for anyone ordering a Greek Salad in the future. Can't wait to order a whole pie one day and chow down!

    We are back again one of my favorite pizza places in Detroit. We started with Flaming greek sausage love to watch fire . We love the Wednesday special large pizza for half price. So we went with large meat lover.

    Small pizza: Half famous feta / half pepperoni
    Minu A.

    I saw that the famous feta pizza here is ranked on a list of one the best in the country. I ordered a small pizza with half pepperoni and half famous feta. I went to pick it up and asked the woman at the front desk if I can have some ranch and she gave me some ranch, pepper flakes, Parmesan cheese. The famous feta pizza was so yummy and so filling. The pepperoni I would say jets is better. But overall this is a nice Detroit staple.

    The best pizza,  great taste. The flavor was so good.

    Best Pizza i had while traveling. The service was good, and the place was very nice. We had a really nice time. A must try if you ever visit Detroit, the ambiance was very nice. We went twice while we visited the area.

    After a long flight to Detroit, I found myself STARVING. Myself and a few friends from a conference looked around for a place to sit and have a good meal. We found Niki's Pizza - a wonderful spot not that far from the riverfront. It has pizza, salads, regular entrees, and a full bar. It was exactly what we needed! I ordered a small veggie pizza - I've never had a Detroit style pizza and it was so good! The inside of Niki's was clean and inviting. On my first visit to Niki's (because YES, I went back the next day to eat more pizza), the A/C was broken. Our server was so kind and explained the situation. She asked if we needed any additional waters or anything to compensate for the heat. Luckily, I am from sweltering Florida, so the heat was not bothering me one bit! The next day, the A/C was all fixed up. I highly recommend Niki's if you are in the area or staying at a hotel nearby. It's a great place to sit and breathe after a long day at a conference or after a day of travel!

    We stopped by Niki's Pizza on a Saturday afternoon. I would describe their pizza as traditional Detroit style, but with a Greek flair. We had a large pizza with pepperoni only. Food: Great pizza - very filling. The tomato sauce was fairly sweet, and the crust was just the right amount of crispiness on the outer edges, where it contacted the pan. Service: Service was decent, but not outstanding. Our server was competent, but seemed distracted. Ambiance: This is a great, old building that's been around since the 1980's. However, there was a huge group of guests having a family reunion when we came into the restaurant, and the noise level was out of control. That's not the fault of the restaurant of course, but that large party diluted the wait staff. My left eardrum is still ringing from the soul-crushing decibel level from that table.

    I was highly disappointed in my experience at Niki's Pizza. We went on a Wednesday during lunch hours where they have a half off on large pizzas. We was seated very quickly, it wasn't busy at all and a few people were in there. The inside of the restaurant is outdated and could benefit from some upgrades to it. Our pizzas were not tasty at all, they were not hot enough. We only enjoyed the fried mushrooms. I would recommend trying somewhere else if you looking to try Detroit style pizza.

    We were meeting some friends before a Lions game and they decided to come here because they offer some allergy friendly options. We had already eaten but I couldn't resist the pizza. It was absolutely delicious!! We love the ambiance here and the service was great. I swear Detroit has some of the most amazing pizza options!

    This spot is in the heart of Greektown, and was the only spot that I saw in the downtown area that has later hours (which is prime time for pizza). First of all, LOTS of interior seating space inside the restaurant, which I was impressed to see. I went here a few times, and the second trip is what bumped the rating up a bit. The first time I stopped here, I got the small Detroit Style Pizza (pictured), which took a solid 25 mins. I had somewhere to be, so I got it carry out. The pizza is definitely a D-Style, and was 'reliable'. I returned a few nights later because I just wanted a slice, and in an odd twist, I thought the slice was better prepared than the whole pizza. It was a cheese slice, and it was a fresh out slice. Not sure if it's because I went after midnight when the pizza is hitting different, or I was just in the mood for a slice, but my impression of the slice was better than the full pizza. With that being said, it's a spot you can go to late if you're downtown/Greektown Detroit with lots of dine in space, slices to go, and it's priced pretty standard. The service was good; nothing much to add on that end. If you like spacious dining environments and a reliable slice, this is the spot.

    We were visiting Detroit because of the Free Press International Marathon so of course one of our stops had to be an establishment with Detroit Style Pizzas! They are dog friendly on the patio so that's always a huge plus. Our server was great and she was on it! The portion sizes here are great. Both salads and pizzas we ordered were very good and the Opa! Saganaki presentation was fun! I'm happy we randomly came across and experienced Niki's while we were in Detroit!

    I decided to give this place another try and had a better experience. Still have to say that the…read morefood is overly salty though. I had a Greek salad and added gyro meat to the top. Generous portion of gyro. The salad was huge. Feta cheese tasted odd. Very salty and had an old/not fresh taste to it. My friend had the Greek combo plate which had gyro meat, a chicken kebab, grilled pita, and a side. We sat up at the bar and had great service. They had a cocktail menu with their seasonal specials. My friend had the apple crisp made with Crown Apple. At $14 it seemed a little steep. I stuck with Jack Daniels and Diet Coke and at $9 that still seemed a little high and enough not to merit a second drink. The Greek has a lot going for it. It has a good vibe with friendly staff. If they can work on the menu a little more and dial back the salt content on the food this place would be on my list of Greektown choices. I don't know if I will give this place a third try with so many other options all within walking distance.

    Ok I came here again, though I said I wouldn't. My co-workers wanted to come back here from last…read moreyear so we did. Completely different experience. Server was attentive for most of the meal. I also liked my meal this time. I got the lemon chicken soup and a Greek salad. Very large portions and very good. I went with 4 others who also got a variety of dishes. They all enjoyed as well. Lots of food. They also had some ciders. This time I'd rate the food and service much better. The road is completely torn up in front of the whole street. I guess they are making a giant patio. That will be cool. But now it's probably killing everyone's business now. The sidewalks are still available but it's a skinny walkway. It doesn't appear at the moment that they are close to completing. Maybe this time next year it'll be done.

    I want to love this place, but I can only like it. The food is too hit and miss for me to "not be…read moreable to wait" until my next visit. I'll eat here, but not as often as i would if they polished up their menu/execution. The chicken dishes, all of them, are terrible. They advertise "tender chicken cut into slices," but if you look at any of the pics on here, it's all the same - tiny, little chicken bits, dry and overcooked. The more obscure dishes are the way to go. They fail hard on the basics, but hit home runs on their more unheard of menu items. If you've never heard of something, but it sounds good - that's what you should order here. Chicken lemon rice: 3/10 Not enough chicken, lemon tastes artificial and weird, soup is bland. I've had better CLR at most any coney island. Chicken Gyro: 3/10 Chicken was dry, the orzo was dry and overcooked, tziki sauce was thick and lacked flavor. Plenty of chicken... I would have rather had less chicken, cooked better. I haven't seen their chicken kabob, but it seems like this place uses the thick part of their breast for the kabobs, and uses the scraps bits for all of their other dishes. Grape Leaves: 7/10 Good flavor, good sauce... wish the CLR soup tasted as good as the sauce from the grape leaves. Stifado: 9/10 Excellent dish. Good amount of beef, great flavor, nice stew. This is the dish that I would come back for. Bread basket: Bread: 4/10 - they serve the bread ice cold. Olive oil: 9/10 - excellent flavor, super light, nice lemon zest Service: 8.5/10 - good job. They had one guy for all 8 or so tables, but did he did a good job covering them. The busser/assistant did a good job at keeping our waters and bread full, but he tries to carry too much, and it causes a big distraction (glasses clunking, nearly falling over, re-stacking)... sometimes two trips is better than one... He also says "of course" (pet peeve) when someone says "thank you." Perhaps I'm weird, but I find that terribly dismissive, and off-putting.

    First of all the atmosphere. Simple yet elevated. The food was surperb and if we didn't live so…read morefar I would be eating here once a week. Everything we ate from the salad and its dressing to the mussels and the gyro were both fresh and delicious. The mussels didn't seem to be debearded but they were fresh and delicious. The gyro doesn't naturally come with feta but they brought a large side of it! And there was one server and the host who managed to provide quality service even with 6 tables coming in at the same time.
