Niki's West is a meat-n-three restaurant located at 233 Finley Avenue in the Acipco-Finley neighborhood of the North Birmingham community. Opened by Gus Hontzas in 1957, the restaurant has grown into a Birmingham institution as evidenced by the long lines of customers in the cafeteria line on a daily basis. Niki's is said to have the freshest vegetables in Birmingham due to its location adjacent to the farmers market. Today, the restaurant is operated by Gus' two sons Pete Hontzas and Teddy Hontzas.
