The food has to be tried to be believed!
Only the best is good enough hear. The best Chinese food I have ever tasted across a wide and diverse selection.
Well worth going out of your way for.
Book the upstairs restaurant though, as the downstairs is a little impersonal and noisy!

I have visited China and Hong Kong many times, have eaten numerous Chinese meals in London and live in Chinatown in Manchester and I can honestly say this is the best Chinese food I have ever eaten. Stefan the manager is super friendly, his staff are excellent and yes, sometimes you do wait for your food and drinks but when they come they are always excellent. Best restaurant I have ever been to and after a good ten years its standard has remained the same! Ignore the negative reviews and try it!

service was really bad, when i called to make the reservation they told me to call back which i found rather rude! then when i did make the booking they seemed to busy to even hear my requirments of a table by the window, when i did finally go fo rthe meal the service was awful but the food was delious so well done to the chefs but the service needs a good look at as it took me 20 minutes to even get a drink! my food came 1.30 hours later....REALLY BAD WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!

Lovely food, usually eat here about once a month but will no be returning. Very rude woman, I am guessing its the owners wife. Arrogant, rude, un-professional and awful languange. I have never been sworn at in a resteraunt in my life!!!!! Never returning and NEVER recommending

Another wonderful evening in Nikki Ip's. The service is excellent, the atmosphere is so swinging, the food is just make you think you are in heaven. They changed all the d cor, I love the Pink & black colour scheme. The chairs are so comfortable. We feel so sorry when our taxi arrive.

Beautiful food. Simply Beautiful! Staff were helpful and polite, and catered to our every need - The food is fairly expensive but worth every penny, particularly liked the seabass and the thai chicken. Service was prompt and atmosphere was relaxed, all in all we really enjoyed our meal. 10/10!

Excellent. The chef comes out to greet guests to ask how the meal is - wish it also did takeaway. Wonderful views of Conwy and castle.

nikki ips is fantastic, reading throught the reviews was shocked to see some negative ones, but guess you cant please everyone. nikki ips offers fine chinese food but dont expect a take away style menu, or take away food. as it is not and does not do take away. it offers something very differant. a well educated pallet will think it has gone to heaven. all i can say is give it a try its something very special.

We were astonished to read some of the reviews about Nikki Ip's, I think someone has a grudge thing going here!
As a treat we visit Nikki's several times a year,(we live about 20 miles away) last night four of us shared 3 starters, 3 main courses and Singapore noodles with mushroom and chilli, 2 bottles of sauvignon blanc and a carafe of tap water. Total £81 less tips. All the food was superb (it always is) though I will stick to Nikki's fried rice next time. We like the service , it was helpful without any of that awful snobbishness you can find in some places, though if you like to be treated like the Royal family you might be disappointed.

Simply the worst restaurant in the world. ive heard raving reviews about Nikki IP's restaurant but was incredibly dissapointed when i went. the manager was too in your face for my liking, i think he needs to calm down a bit and let people enjoy their meals. the restaurant is cramped and stuffy and the all the staff are rude and seem oblivious to anything that is going on around them. in general nikki ips ruined my night and my friends birthday, they offered no apologies when our bill was incorrect and they couldnt see why we didnt tip! who tips a restaurant that ruins your night? serves cold food? and is downright rude to you?

Having not eaten at Nikki Ips for some time we thought that we would return to see if the service had improved. We had a table of 4 and we squashed in upstairs. The seating plans are dreadful and they need to take a few tables out in order to actually let customers enjoy their meals, without you elbowing the person on the next table.
Food was dreadful and lacked freshness, the attitude of the staff was atrocious. To top it all off, they had also decided to add an extra bottle of wine onto our bill, when we questioned this there was no apology. We will certainly not be returning here.

An annual ritual is a family trip to Nikki ips to celebrate my daughter birthday. This year was extra special with an engagement & recent graduation to add to the celebrations.
The food was, as always, excellent.
The rudeness & sheer lack of courtesy shown by one woman was unsurpassed. She is obviously in the wrong job. She wrote down our order incorrectly & instead of simply apologising & rectifying her mistake she refused to acknowledge her error & was downright hostile. The idea that the customer is right is obviously not in her remit. (eg why on earth would 8 people have ordered only 2 portions of rice, & even if that is what she thought she heard surely a person in her position would have queried?)
The rest of the staff are fine but I'm afraid that her attitude ruined what could & should have been a wonderful evening.
Looks like we will have to find another venue for our celebrations in future & that saddens me.

Enjoyed a meal at Nikki IP's on Saturday. Food was very good in the main but the staff seemed unaware of what was going on around them. Restaurant very busy and very noisy, rather stuffy too.

All I can say is you must have put their backs up as I have been in on the hectic of evenings and you may have had to wait a while but they are always courteous and helpful as much as they can be in an environment that requires you to try and keep every on happy.
Not a fair general appraisal of a restaurant that tries hard to keep good standards to my mind.
