Reviews for Miki's Restaurant in Matthews, NC
This is your standard meat and veg place. Decor is very basic but the owner is extremely charming and will talk and joke with... everyone. Food is good, solid but not outstanding. Prices are fair and portions are large. Big selection of pies and cakes thatstare at you as soon as you walk in the door. Read more
First time as I was in area for lunch. Ordered to go. Observed everyone's good eating in while waiting and everything looked... delicious. My order was perfect and delicious as well. Small laid back atmosphere. Read more
Sweet folks working here. Since visiting NC I guess I wanted to experience more southern home cooking. So for dinner I had to... try the fried chicken. Crisp light breading seemed great but truly lacked flavor. It needed at the bare minimum salt and pepperboth as a brine or inches breading batter. I asked the cute waitress about it and she said they have so many local oldsters thatcomplain about seasonings they just don't add them in any more. Sad because it had the perfect crispy skin. Mashed potatoes hadbeen left in water too long and had a too soft texture. The savior on the mashed was a nice brown gravy. The fried okra tastyand crisp just like my Daddy fixed. Waitress was busy and I could have used another napkin from the fried chicken and a waterrefill. She did get me a glass of milk quickly. Read more
My first time here and it was absolutely delicious. I've eaten at several "homestyle" restaurants but this has been the best so... far. Pictured is the country style steak over rice with gravy and both fried squash and fried zucchini. Everything was perfectlyseasoned and tasty! Read more
I had one of their daily specials grilled shrimp with 2-sides. I selected cabbage and green beans. I was seated promptly. The... food was very good. Staff were not very friendly, only provided necessary service but never came back to see if I needed anyrefills for my drink or if I wanted any dessert or anything. The 3 stars are for the food as it was good. Read more
I've passed by many times over the years & finally stopped by last night. I wanted some veggies before I hit the gym. However, I... saw on the outside board that there was a grilled chicken livers special & thought I'd try it since it came with two sides. Thegentleman who took my order was very nice. He tried to coax me to order whatever I wanted, but I guess I convinced him that Iwas being strict with the veggies, saying ok, no bread. Lol I paid for my order & went to Harris Teeter to pick up a few things.I believe he said my order would be ready in 10 minutes. When I returned, he seemed concerned. He said he'd been looking for mebecause they ran out of chicken livers. He apologized more than once. I told him not to worry about it as I was only trying thembecause of the special. I just wanted something warm as it was chilly outside. I ordered a veggie plate with cabbage, friedokra, & fried zucchini. He gave me $5 back, the difference between my first order and my veggie plate. It didn't take long formy order to come out. I splurged on the fried veggies; hadn't had fried zucchini before. Everything was good & filling. Itcould've used a little seasoning. I'm a fan of pepper, especially on the cabbage. The order hit the spot, kept me warm, & wasjust enough before the gym. Will return to try more menu items. Read more
It was my first visit there. It has a down home country feel. I ordered based on a question I asked our waitress. I did not care... for the entree I ordered however the sides and biscuits were good. She did offer to replace what I ordered and I declined. Ourwaitress was great. She went above and beyond to meet our needs. The porkchop was good as well. Read more
