    The brunch selections were numerous and very appealing. I had a lemon salmon dish with purple potatoes and yellow beets. It was cooked perfectly and very tasty. Loved the lemon sauce. For dessert I had the Greek yogurt with coated cranberries and a graham wafer. My daughter had the melted cheese sandwich with fries and the crème brûlée for dessert. So Delish. Looking at the food going to other tables, I don’t think you could go wrong with anything on the menu.

    Very good experience at Niko's as usual. Nick our waiter was expert! The food was outstanding. I do wish they had gluten free pita though the falafel is good. Wonderful and eclectic wine list too.
