This place is awesome! They use super fresh, all natural produce and meats, and it really shows in their good. A group of friends and I come here pretty regularly for their pizza, which is delicious! They usually have coupons too, for a large pizza for $6.25, which usually serves 4 of us, so it is an amazing deal! The staff is friendly, and it is never overwhelmingly crowded. Also, out wait time is usually minimal.
Pros:
- Fresh produce and meats
- Quick and nice service
- Close to campus
- Nice interior and music
Cons:
Can't think of any
The name of this restaurant is very deceiving. It is actually a pizza, sub, etc. restaurant, not really dealing much with pickles. Two friends and I were in the food for pizza and the only place near his area of living was this small, locally owned restaurant. We got a large pepperoni pizza and it was very good. It wasn't greasy and it was very delicious. The pizza had an herbal taste to it--I can't quite put my finger on what it was, but it definitely wasn't just an ordinary pizza. I have also had the gyro pizza from here and it was really great. The breadsticks and garlic sticks are a great purchase too. They don't deliver, so I recommend getting a menu for future orders to it can be ready for pickup. On top of that, they are very fast when making your food. While normal places take about 15 to 20 minutes to make your pizza, this location said that it would only be around 7 minutes, and they were completely accurate. What they lack in delivery they make up for in timeliness. The restaurant is very unique and has a good location in Lafayette for what type of food establishment it is. If you browse through their menu, they have all types of specialty pizzas that I think would be really great to try. My friends are picky, so I didn't get to go that route.
Review Source:This is close to my house, so I've made it my go-to pizza parlor. Â For the past 5-6 times I've been there, I absolutely loved everything I got. Â However, last night I went there with friends to get 2 pizzas to go, and when we got them home, the dough on one of them wasn't even cooked through. Â We put it in the oven to finish the job. Â I write this primarily to alert the staff that they need to be aware of cooking times so that they may continue feeding me and my friends in the future.
Review Source:I'm pretty sure this place is actually called Niko's Spicy Pickle, but I am not sure how to update the name on Yelp.. Â I have ordered a pizza from here once before, several months ago, and I don't remember it being very remarkable. I recently decided to give them another shot, so I stopped there after work. Â
As many will note, the outside is rather underwhelming, but the inside is tastefully decorated with cheerful decor. Â There are menus at the front counter that we picked up, and we were greeted very warmly by one of the employees. She talked about some of their menu items and their restaurant in general. Apparently, the dine-in location will be staying where it is, but the delivery headquarters will be moving across the street...somewhere? I wasn't too clear on the details for this.
We went to sit down and continue looking over the menu - we ultimately decided to share a California sub and an order of cheese sticks. This was plenty of food for the two of us. I think the California sub was about the only vegetarian sub listed, but it was very good. It had spinach, feta, artichoke hearts, and a side of ranch dressing. The cheese sticks were about what you would expect. They did not come with sauce - although one of the employees was gracious enough to provide us with a side of nacho and pizza sauce free of charge. Â Normally, I believe this would have been $0.89 per sauce. I didn't think they would be worth that expense.
They also had some yummy desserts in their display case, and I considered ordering one...but I had taken note of their "$5 minimum on credit card" sign, so that discouraged me from purchasing dessert since I likely would have had to purchase more than I wanted to meet the minimum.
My boyfriend introduced me to this place and Its really good. They have a nice sized menu and good gourmet sandwiches that are cheap for what they are. Order a "half" sandwich unless you are STARVING because the half sandwich is the size of a normal whole sandwich. I have not yet tried anything except for  their prime rib sub which is great!
Review Source:Alright so I'm a New Yorker so I hope this review holds some weight when I talk about pizza.
I live two blocks from this joint, and I ate there for the first time a few weeks ago with one of my roommates who's from California. We tried the calzones. Now I really can't compare the calzones out here to out East. On the coasts, calzones are half circle shaped and are more floury. Here, they baste the top with butter to brown it more and put sesame seeds on it. The calzone was on par with the calzones you'd get from Puccini's in West Lafayette, but they are far cheaper.
When my other roommate from Boston got back into town, all three of us went out and got two specialty pizzas from Nicko's. I'd say it's the best pizza I've had out here in Indiana so far, and it isn't too far off from some of the pies you'll get out on Long Island and up near Poughkeepsie. Their BBQ chicken pie is fantastic and I am a big fan of the Meat Man pizza. It's well worth the price and it's apparent that they use fresh ingredients: garlic, basil, all the real good stuff.
The outside may seem dauntingly small but the inside is a pretty big. All in all, it's a pretty damn good place to frequent with some friends.
I saw an article for this place in the local paper and started hearing radio ads. Â I've been looking for a good calzone for quite some time. Â This place does not disappoint in that regard. Â Even the staff asked me to comment if it was up to my standards. Â They also have sandwiches and pizza as well which I look forward to trying at some point. Â They are open 7 days a week though I didn't see the hours posted. Â This is mostly a casual lunch or quick dinner place.
This place is also called Niko's Spicy Pickle.
Honestly, I wasn't expecting much. The sandwiches are better than average for this town, and the calzones amount to more than a graduated hot-pocket, which makes them the best in town. Their sandwiches are all toasted, and they take the time to add a bit of garlic/herb butter to the outer surface of the bread.
The parking situation is a little wonky, but I have been assured they have space for ten cars. If you worry about such things, just park on the street.
The interior decor is friendly, bright and comfortable, and the staff is kindly.
Verdict: Niko's Spicy Pickle, the actual name of this restaurant, is a great place to add to your lunch or takeout rotation. I don't think they are a destination location, but you're definitely going to get your money's worth.
