First time at Kiki's and everything was excellent! Aidan was our server and he was always there to see what we needed. Very attentive. Everything we ordered was delicious and came out at just the right time. We didn't feel rushed and were relaxed on the beautiful patio. Make sure to order the cauliflower... AMAZING! Also the crab dip was excellent... They did not skimp on the crab. And the coconut shrimp were large and delicious. 10/10 on service, food and ambience!

I loved it at my first visit last month, and brought mom on her 82nd birthday week to enjoy it with me. The soup is not to be missed! Good enough to be tempted yo a 2nd bowl and call it dessert!

Prompt and friendly service. Dined outside and they have a great patio that is quiet and comfortable. Told our server we were in a bit of a hurry and he took our order and had it out in 20 minutes. We shared a bruschetta board and it was delightful. We will be back without hesitation.
