We had the best time! The service was phenomenal, and the food was absolutely incredible. There wasn’t a single thing our party got that wasn’t delicious. We went for my birthday and joked that our group wants to go for everyone’s birthday for the next 10 years. You won’t be disappointed!

Our annual Christmas Eve lunch at Bistro Niko was extra special this year! Somehow the restaurant was even more beautifully decorated for the holidays. The food and service were amazing as always, and the new Cajun Chicken entree was fantastic. Thank you for taking such great care of my family - we love kicking off the holiday season with you!
