    Highly recommend. Great pizza and excellent service!!! We sat at the bar after the Tiger's game and had a great time!

    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

    Location is great and the staff was super nice. Place is dated and falling apart. The pizza was good but the dough didn't taste fresh. Our Uber driver recommended this place, maybe I won't ask my next Uber driver for recs...

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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!

    Famous Pepperoni Pizza (large)

    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.

It took about 20-30min wait for our pizza. We got the packard pepperoni to share. It sure does pack a punch of heat/spice with the chilies. The honey balance it out well though so don't be too scared. The bread/dough was very fluffy and the cheese crust was crunchy and delicious! Definitely very bread heavy in general but I think this place does it well. Overall decent pizza but I think I prefer a thin slice over Detroit style.

    We were nicely greeted and sat at the bar. We checked out…read morethe cocktail menu and knew that this was the right voice for dinner. We ordered the Last Sunrise in Tuscany and the 59 Barrera and Son. Both were absolutely delicious. We watched the bartender make the Last Sunrise in Tuscany and we had to ask about it. They make this with a house made syrup which isn't too far fetched for this restaurant. They try to make everything from scratch and it really shows in their offering. We were so hungry we had to order a couple things to share. But before we ordered we asked the bartenders (absolutely amazing) about what to order. Now when I say they gave the most elaborate explanation I could almost taste these dishes she was explaining them so well. She knows food and she knows good food. So we went with her recommendations based on what we were going for. We ordered the Duck, the Ravioli and the Rigatoni. When I'm telling you everything was perfect, it was PEFECT! The cook on everything, the favors that danced in my mouth. The filling of it all. I cannot wait to come back to try the rest of this menu. As dinner was winding down, I asked Kennedy to choose my last cocktail. She presented me with the most delightful white sangria and I was wowed by the flavor and lightness of it all. We then ordered a few lattes to go and we were talking about that dinner and restaurant for the rest of the week. Shea and Kennedy were absolutely amazing!

The bacon scone was absolutely outstanding, however you have to ask for butter for this, which is a must, but that was the only thing for a $325 brunch bill for 4 people. The entrees were cold when we received them, and one took so long to get that it was actually comped by the restaurant. The steak and egg benny was okay. The egg was overcooked and only jammy and not runny, and the croissant which had the steak on it was super oily and gross. There is a reason why a biscuit or english muffin is used in this dish, so whoever decided a croissant was a good idea is not smart, or eating the current weekend chef's food. The potato frites super greasy and oily as well as cold. Draining them on a paper towel would have been clutch. We had other entrees that no one finished because of the quality and taste of the food. It would have been helpful if the kitchen staff put the food under a salamander or heat light. If they have one of these, it certainly wasn't working that day in proper order. This is not a place I would ever go to brunch again. Maybe I would try dinner have one of their cheaper dinners as the $34 benny was overpriced and underperforming. I am giving this place three stars rather than one because the service was great unlike the food.
