Niki's West, Birmingham

Niki's West Steak and Seafood Restaurant has been in business since 1957 serving the folks in Birmingham, Alabama. The family owned restaurant offers up a generous cafeteria style steam table filled with amazing entrees, side dishes and desserts. Each day Monday thru Saturday, the choices change but their website does list the daily menu in case there’s a favorite you’d like to try.

They’re open from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily and do serve breakfast.
