"The pancakes are light, fluffy, and topped with real butter."
Cliff Strutz
"When I asked my waitress at Niecie's about the menu item listed as 'Ham, Fried your Way,' she started to list the different ham options. I stopped her when she got to country ham and was rewarded with this wonderful slice of salty, chewy, and powerfully flavored meat."
Cliff Strutz
"If Niecie's moist caramel cake, with super-sweet icing, is an indication of the quality of dessert here, don't even think about leaving without ordering a piece or slice of something!"
Cliff Strutz
"Niecie's simple, moist chocolate cake is dessert perfection!"
Cliff Strutz
"The biscuits are more like grilled corn cakes, while the peppery gravy has a generous amount of sausage chunks. Simply the best biscuits and gravy I have ever had!"
Cliff Strutz
"Niecie's listing for this breakfast of fried pork chops, eggs, and grits (with a biscuit on the side) reads, '2 Pork Chops (fried right)' They certainly were."
Michael Stern
"Chicken and Waffle is a favorite dish for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Niecie's gives you three large, beautifully fried wings, a Belgian waffle with a globe of butter on top, and a jug full of syrup."
Michael Stern
"The pig ear sandwich is listed on the menu with barbecued brisket and grilled chicken breast among ''specialty sandwiches.'' It doesn't taste bad at all once you get past the idea of sinking your teeth into a couple of ears."
Michael Stern
"This close-up of an ear in the pig ear sandwich hints at its extremely piggy nature, not unlike a big piece of bacon fat. The ears are boiled for a long time to make them tender."
Michael Stern
"The $1.99 you pay for a large glass of fresh-squeezed lemonade (served in a Pepsi glass) includes free refills."
Michael Stern
"Interacting with the friendly staff is just as much a draw at Niecie's as is the excellent food. If you are especially lucky, you will get Ms. Myra C as your waitress."
Cliff Strutz
"While this old location on Prospect was charming, it also was small. Niecie's has moved out of here and now can be found in larger quarters -- a former Pizza Hut on Troost."
Michael Stern
"Of the several pies Niecie's offers, the sweet potato pie is the only one made in-house. Plenty sweet, with just the right amount of spice, it is a soul food classic!"
