Kiki's Chicken and Waffles

I had been hearing a lot about KiKi’s Chicken and Waffles off Parklane in Dentsville and had read many reviews, so I decided to take my wife to try it out. Parking was very easy, which was a nice start. Upon walking in, the space felt like it was in need of cleaning, and the overall appearance gave the impression that the restaurant might be in the middle of moving or transitioning, even though that wasn’t the case. Unfortunately, the drinks were not very good, and several menu items were unavailable during our visit. The food overall was okay. Some dishes were easier and more enjoyable to eat than others. My wife did enjoy their chicken and especially liked the grits. Personally, I found the chicken difficult to eat, and there were still quite a few feathers present, which made the experience uncomfortable for me. Considering the price, it didn’t feel like a good value overall. The staff was present and not rude, but they didn’t seem particularly friendly or engaged, and the atmosphere felt a bit low-energy. I can see the appeal for those who enjoy very basic, simple flavors and straightforward comfort food. For that audience, this could be a favorite. That said, it’s not somewhere I would personally return to, and I wouldn’t recommend it broadly, though it may suit a specific crowd. Like and follow me for more reviews 🍷😃. Bringing my honest experience to you so you know exactly what to expect one stop at a time!

I had chicken and waffles and the chicken was delicious! I would recommend the wings! My partner had the same, but plain wings and enjoyed both! The music was great and our server was awesome!

Had a very nice time at Kiki’s this is def a packed place. I had Kiki’s plate that came with 4 chicken wings and 2 sides. Not mad at it at all. The chicken was flavored nicely, fresh, and moist not over cooked. The restaurant is priced about what you would see at an average restaurant. Plates ranging from 12.99 to 18.99. The staff was friendly and wanting to make sure you had a good meal. I want to give a shot out to Cassandra I believe the bartender she helped place my order and gave me a recommendation on what sides to choose. I also overheard her make take multiple calls and help staff member and customers. She handled all with grace and professionalism even if she was doing multiple at once. If you go on a Sunday be prepared for a small wait. It gets busy. But it’s a big place with plenty of seating. Check it out.

This is the biggest shout out I've ever given. If there was a bonus start you would get it! I've eaten at Kiki's All over in Charleston and now in Columbia. Last week Kiki served about 1,000 people at my church. I want you to know that every meal was hot. That's correct. We had shrimp and grits. I was number 816. It was hot. We had chicken and waffles. It was hot and I was so excited and thrilled to see them pull it out. So organized. So kindly so fresh it was really incredible. So I want to give a shout out not only for what happened last Sunday at church but also go all the other times that I visited Kiki and the food was fantastic!!

My spouse and I had dinner here this afternoon and I cannot say that I enjoyed my experience. Although the food was hot and was served to us in less than 15 minutes, the good aspects do not outweigh the bad. My chicken wings were very salty and tasted like the grease they were fried in was burnt and old, and the Belgium waffle was bland. My husband’s chicken (leg, wing, breast and thigh) appeared to have been cooked in newer grease. My food was served about 6 minutes before my spouse plate came out, so I waited until he received his. My preference would have been to have our plates brought to us at the same time. We were given plastic ware which I thought was very tacky especially since we were dining in and our food was served on plates. Even the Waffle House uses silverware! The floor under our table was very, very sticky leaving me to wash the bottom of my shoes when I got home. The table was sticky, the syrup container had syrup running down the side. Our window was dirty and nasty, and it was very warm inside of the restaurant although it was extremely hot outside. I was very disappointed spending $50.00 in this grimy establishment! It needs a thorough cleaning! It is too overrated with the television ads and all and it is not worth the money! I have no plans to visit this restaurant again. The one positive thing I do have to say is that our waitress, Kayla was phenomenal. 🧡

Had the best snow day in with food delivered from Kiki’s. I wish I can say I took a picture but we immediately went in! I ordered the wing special with collards and sweet potato casserole. My fiancée had the wings and grits plate with a waffle on the side. Wings were piping hot…love that!! They were a great size along with the side portions. Wings were so well seasoned…best I’ve had! Will definitely be ordering from them more!

Really had high hopes. We visited the Parklane location. I ordered the Fish and Grits with cheese. Fish was seasoned well, however, was very chewy! Fish wouldn't cut with the plastic knife given and I had to ask for a regular knife. Grits had absolutely NO flavor. Plain. Cheese did not help; neither did salt and pepper! Biscuit was so cold and dry, had me coughing for a minute. My Mom ordered the Veggie platter. She said the green beans were too spicy and no flavor on the mixed vegetables. She said the mashed potatoes and gravy and sweet potatoes were okay. The Waitress was not attentive. Had to ask for napkins, coffee refill, and a regular knife. P.S. Floor was sticky and slippery; needed mopping. Unfortunately, we won't return, at least to this location.

My cousin was graduating and we wanted something good near by. The food here was really good and freshly prepared. The only thing was my cousin got a sweet potato waffle but it really tasted like a spice waffle. She even asked the waitress and cook and they stated that, that’s what their sweet potato waffle taste like. It was good it just didn’t give sweet potato.

I thought the food was decent. The waffle was delicious! I love supporting local restaurants. The service was pleasant. When we got there the parking lot was empty ,but it quickly filled up. The problem I have was the smell. The was a sewer smell that greeted me. It was better past the hostess area or maybe I got used to it. As I said, I am very much into supporting local people and less money to big business, so it this review is more about making the owner/management aware of the problem and hopefully draw more business.

6 o'clock on the Saturday after thanksgiving, we arrived and were worried it was closed, the parking lot was pretty empty. But luckily, they were open for business, and a good business at that. Our family all got waffles: chocolate chip, red velvet, and sweet potato, with impossible chicken, traditional chicken breast, and bacon. Y'all. Y'all. So tasty. All of it. The flavor upgrades of the waffles have extra shebang additions, which aren't obvious in the menu, worth asking about. R&B was playing in the open space, which, by the time we left, was bustling. We were just more early than the regular crowd. Truly a soul food place, we were happy to be there, white family of 4, in a place serving a predominantly Black clientele. Our waiter, Leshayla was excellent. One note: bring cash, there's a credit card service charge if you use it.

I came up to Columbia to bring my niece to college. I haven't visited Columbia in years. We decided to eat at Kiki's. I ordered the fish and grits. Hubby had the fried chicken and fries (neice had the same). My sister had the greens, beans and chicken. The fried chicken was great. Nice and hot. The red velvet waffle was hot and fresh. Every single other food item was DISGUSTING!! The fish was so nasty. It was salty and soggy. The grits tasted like water. It was awful and super white. No butter/salt or anything. I'm from Charleston and was raised on grits. This is the nastiest grits I have EVER had!! The waiter told us the grits are always nasty, once I sent them back. The restroom. It was DISGUSTING!!!!! The toilet seat was off of the bowl. It smelled like death in there. I used it prior to ordering our food. We should have left then. The floor was wet (in the stall) and sticky toward the sink. It was NASTY!! The carpet in that place needed to be changed YEARS AGO! It smelled so bad. Needless to say, WE WILL NEVER EAT THERE AGAIN! Do better!!

Had a very nice time at Kiki's this is def a packed place. I had Kiki's plate that came with 4 chicken wings and 2 sides. Not mad at it at all.

I was skeptical because of the mixed reviews, but Kiki's knocked it out of the park. This is food that truly nourishes the soul. I ordered the veggie plate with sweet potatoes, green beans, Mac & cheese, & fried okra. The portions are HUGE. The corn muffin was sweet & buttery--like a cupcake! Everything was fresh, hot, and tasted like heaven. Our server was attentive and friendly. (My friend ordered the chicken & waffles and raved, too!) Food was 10/10. My only complaint was the floors were a bit slippery upon entering.

The chicken perfect. MacNCheese and greens alright. But they forgot my corn muffin. So my food was cold by the time I was ready to eat. We also had ribs. Falling if the bone. Like the mustard based sauce. The customer service was excellent even though it was packed. Our server was very nice and accommodating considering we were a party of 13. Came all the way from Sacramento, CA., for Ft. Jackson graduation. Enjoyed my stay. See you next time.!

Idk how yall gave this place more stars...nothing is seasoned...hot sauce couldn't even save the chicken...definitely will not be coming back...salmon was over cooked...mashed potatoes were good...the coffee was cold...no matter how many times the waiter came with now coffee it was cold

The food was just ok. The service was good. I liked my waitress. However I had to get paper towels from the bathroom twice to clean my table. Literally sat forward once and my shirt got sticky stuff all over it. I had smothered pork chops. The gravy tasted like it was out of a can. It wasn't good. I didn't eat my second one. I also got honey wings. Those were ok. I'm actually partial to honey chicken and these were ok. I would eat them again but not sure I would eat at this particular location again.

Parklane location: 10/1/25; I ordered the kids chicken and waffle (2 wings and a half waffle) I also added another wing. The waffle was hard, 2 of the wings were undercooked and all 3 had hair on it. I Will Never Eat From There Again!!!!

My 12 years old son and I just visited Forward City Church and we were looking for a good brunch spot. We stumbled upon Kikis Chicken Waffles. It was a very short wait even though the resturant was pretty full. At first, we were not happy because the table were we sat, was not wiped down. The server was great and immediately cleaned the table when asked. We had the Chicken wings and waffles, the appetizer shrimp and grits, and a side of greens. Overall, everything was delicious with a few complaints. The greens were a little salty and the wings were not crispy. Besides that, I was happy and would return.

Seven of our ROMEO lunch group went here yesterday for lunch. Only one of us had previously eaten at Kiki's, so it was a new experience for the group. Each of us orders a different entree. Smothered Pork Chops, Smothered Chicken, Fish Sandwich, Soul Food Chicken dinner, Chicken Sandwich, Shrimp and Grits and a Chicken and Waffle dinner. Upon entering at 11:30 there seemed to be a "musty" smell, almost as if someone had just mopped the floor. That was our first impression. We were seated and our waiter moved tables to accommodate the group. He was prompt, friendly and very courteous. He took and remembered our orders from memory and didn't miss a beat! The food was great. Every single one of. us gave the restaurant a rating of 4.5 with the exception of the fish sandwich, which was given a 4.0. The smothered chicken and pork chops filled the whole plate with mash potatoes and gravy and both guys really liked it. The chops were very tender and he didn't even need a knife. He said he would've given it a 5.0 if it would''ve been served with a biscuit or bread. The Smothered chicken guy could only eat half the potatoes, as it was a large amount. The Shrimp and Grits were excellent. The Chicken sandwich and Fish Sandwich both came with a large amount of French fries. The Chicken Soul food dinner was ordered with okra and collards and he said it was great. I ordered the Chicken and waffle. I've only had Chicken and Waffles once down in Charleston at a Diner's, Drive-in and Dive restaurant that was said to be very good. I didn't care for it there and I really didn't want to order it at Kiki's because of that. The waiter recommended it so I thought I'd give it a try. It had a nice sized Belgian like waffle and two boneless chicken breast. I was totally surprised at the chicken. It had a very thin crust (unlike Zestos and most other "southern fried" chicken). It was crisp and the seasoning was fabulous. Very tasty...lots of salt and pepper but not too salty. Some of the best I've had and also very moist. It turned me around on my thoughts of not liking Chicken and Waffles! This was a great experience for the group and I think we all were surprised. We will return!

Just like I remembered! Haven't been in years and wanted to hang out with my son. We got the lunch special 1/2 waffle 3 wings $9.99. Was greeted as soon as we walked in the door and she was also our server. VERY attentive. Food came out QUICK! Piping hot fried chicken and crispy but fluffy on the inside waffle!! We'll be back!!

Plus side: food was good and relatively inexpensive. And now the minuses: first of all, the service was not great. I felt like we were bothering the staff by being there. Second, the location was not very clean. The table was barely wiped down, and don't get me started on the restroom. Third, even though we had real plates, we had plastic forks and knives. What's the deal with that? Overall, it was a passable lunch, but I wouldn't go back.

Kiki's is a definitely my go to spot for daddy daughter dates! My princess LOVES their wings and red velvet waffles. You can always count on their wings because seasoned and cooked to perfection. The staff is ALWAYS super friendly and helpful especially whenever I take the kids with me. You can count on a quick service time as well, even when the place is slammed they find a way to get the food out quickly. We've visited both locations and they always have a dope song selection. Gotta love a place that's got good food, good vibes, and great staff.

This is so good!!!!! The go to Local soul food spot!!!! The pork chop and fried chicken wings were delicious. Vegetables are very good. My friend did not prefer sweet potatoes soufflé.

Had breakfast here this Saturday morning. I had the waffle and my husband had the waffles with chicken. I should have gotten the same thing because was the chicken was The waffle was ok but the chicken was so good!! Very friendly staff and it was a nice place as well.

We arrived at a deserted parking lot, and assumed it was closed as well. My daughter's birthday was Tuesday of this week, and she wanted Kiki's Chicken and Waffles, so I obliged, thinking it was a treat for both of us. When I walked in, I was immediately greeted with the most foul and horrid smells of pure feces and bleach. I again assumed maybe the restroom had just been blown up, (of course it was just as stank in the restroom). However, this stench catered the entire restaurant, an odor so foul that you immediately turn to walk back out. The food administration needs to step in and review before someone ends up being sick. I can only imagine if this is a backed up sewer line, where the actual sewer is backing up in, the water line perhaps? Which would be the direct food and health of all that comes into that restaurant. This was THE MOST horrible experience ever! Please, I beg of you, close the place and have it examined before serving anyone else.

Kiki's Chicken and Waffles is an absolute gem! From the moment you step inside, you're greeted with a classic ambiance that exudes warmth and nostalgia. The old box TVs scattered throughout the restaurant add a charming touch, transporting you back to a simpler time. Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the chicken and waffles. Oh my goodness, they are simply divine! The chicken is perfectly crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with just the right amount of seasoning to tantalize your taste buds. And the waffles? Light, fluffy, and oh-so-satisfying. Together, they create a symphony of flavors that will leave you craving more. After I told my girlfriend about this place, she said that it must be bussing! But it's not just the food that makes Kiki's stand out--it's the impeccable service. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure that every diner feels welcomed and taken care of. Whether you're a regular or a first-time visitor, like me, you're treated like family from the moment you walk in. Overall, dining at Kiki's Chicken and Waffles is an experience to remember. With delicious food, great service, and a nostalgic ambiance. I can't recommend it highly enough--five stars all the way!

Another great time at Kiki's! Our host Daisha was amazing. It was a large group of us and she handle it all so well. The food came out hot and quick! The chicken was delicious as always and the waffle was soft, fully and flavorful. The Mac and cheese was alright this time. The restaurant was clean and provided plenty of seating.

Upon arriving we were greeted and escorted to our booth. The parklane location has a very large seating area. The place was very clean and welcoming. They also have a stage, but no longer use it. Our server Jenae was amazing! She was patient, gave recommendations, considerate and interacted with us to ensure we were pleased with everything. Great customer service! We ordered different items sausage, chicken and waffles, pancakes, grits and hash browns with a strawberry mimosa carafe (delicious). The grits were bland and had too much liquid, but other than that, everything was very very good.

Pretty good restaurant! Love the idea of the mimosa pitcher instead of glasses . Our waiter greeted us as soon as we sat at our seating. She was quick and polite. Pretty large restaurant for seating . The decor is nice as well. We will be back. Only con is that tables could be cleaned better ! As well as using different breads for French toast . Otherwise pretty good spot

I wanted to love this place because of all the good reviews on yelp and in person but not so much. I do think maybe I just went on that wrong day as others in my party who previously ate here said the food is usually better than this. Service: So I'll start with our waitress. Unfortunately I don't remember her name (dark skin girl with green tipped locs) - but she was amazing! She was efficient, polite, and informative. Our food came out quick and for the most part exactly as we ordered it. Food - most of it was BLAND. We ordered fried okra as a starter...BLAND and the dipping sauce was disgusting, idk what it was but it wasn't good. Fish & grits...grits were BLAND, Smothered pork chops over rice & gravy and a side of Mac n cheese....BLAND, well the gravy was. Mac n cheese was okay but dry. The pork chops were tasty but had a lingering aftertaste. It reminded me of the ranch dip seasoning people use to make pot roast, but at least it tasted like something. Now the fried chicken!! - DELICIOUS. I think that's were all the seasoning went. So good and fried well! Thankfully I didn't have to pay for my meal so I'm willing to give it another try if I'm in that area and someone else wants to go. If I do comeback, I am going to stick to the chicken & waffles only and just nibble off others plate to sample other items on menu. Hopefully then they will figure out who's hiding the seasoning.

Super disappointed! I do not live in Columbia, however offered to pick up a large salad for family members that have ordered from KiKi's many times. In fact this was my second time in 2 weeks picking up a to go order. I will let the attached photo of the "large" salad I paid $7.69 in addition to leaving a $2 gratuity speak for itself! This is unacceptable!

Food was spot on loved every bite of it this is a excellent spot to visit a true meaning of southern food. The service was wonderful as well the server made sure we had everything too our liking . Fast seating for such a excellent tasting restaurant

We were in the area and passed by this location throughout the week. Finally decided to give it a try our last day in Columbia. Upon our arrival, the young male hostess wasn't happy and expressed as much. In the midst of our small talk, while waiting for a table, he stated he would rather be at school instead of at work. That says a lot on a Sunday morning. Then another male appeared to seat our party and was equally disengaged! No smile or anything, just here is your seat, plastic silverware and your server will be here shortly. Fast forward, wanted to leave at this point as the entire place seemed very dreadful, lacked cleanliness and smelled as such. I tried to chalk the unpleasant smell up with maybe it was from the restrooms, as we were seated nearby them in the back. Ugh! Either way it was AWFUL! The tables were clearly in need of cleaning or maybe a complete overhaul! Maybe invest in disposable table sheets or something. Plastic utensils are their choice of cutlery. Imagine trying to eat a steak with plastic utensils. SMH However, a guest in our party managed after his steak was finally prepared edible. The first attempt, the steak was still kicking. The chicken was seasoned but some pieces were a bit dry and overcooked. The waffles were very bland! This was a major let down, as this is your signature dish. One would have thought, this would be the one dish of perfection! Maybe it was an off day. I haven't a clue. The one highlight was the waitress whom seemed very high-spirited in spite of her overload of tables. This was also a breath of fresh air, after the encounters from the "lack of interest" frontend staffers. All in all, this was our first attempt but unfortunately our last.

I'm guessing because it was like 30 minutes before closing I didn't care for the taste of the food. It definitely could have been better. This usually my go too when I pop in Columbia.

WORTH ITTT!!! This was my first restaurant that I tried in SC, im from Houston Texas so i honestly didn't have high hopes, nor am I a fan of chicken in waffles but it wasn't far from my brothers army base so it was where we ended up. As soon as we walked in we were greeted so highly, you would of literally thought the president walked through the doors! Our host, a very sweet young man, accompanied my family without me ever having to tell him our needs! ( it was greatly appreciated) the menu had lots of options but again we were in South Carolina so I didn't have high hopes... WHEN I TELL YOU THIS WAS SOME OF THE BEST CHICKEN & BBQ RIBS I've EVER had !!!!! Literally food was 10/10 everything was cooked PERFECTLY!! Literally no complaints! It's a 15hr drive for me but honestly I would probably make the drive just for the food! So amazing! And amazing staff! The way we're treated just made it 10x better. This is what it's like to go to a restaurant! Like the true meaning of going out to eat and enjoying it!

Great atmosphere! Food was well seasoned and hot. Smothered pork was so good! Would recommend this place!

Maybe the best fried chicken I ever had. Waffle was okay. Grits were bad. Fried chicken was insane!!

The food was just okay kind of ... the service was good & the ambiance was nice. If the food was fresh it would've probably been a lot better.

Had a late night dinner here after a bumpy flight from Utah. We were totally impressed with it all. A wonderful, friendly staff, good music playing and the food was delicious. My friends had their Chicken and Waffles, the seasoning on the chicken was awesome; would love to know what mix they use. I had the Shrimp and Grits, Collard Greens with Fried Okra on the side. It was like having a "slap in your in the face" home awakening of returning to the south. Loved it! Sorry for no pics...we were hungry as hell and it was good, so it didn't last long being untouched!

Stopped through for breakfast on the way from Charlotte. We arrived before the restaurant got crowded and was immediately seated. 1st time for 3 of the 4 of us. Lots of great options on the menu. Since it was my 1st time I decided to go with what the restaurant was named for, Kiki's Chicken & Waffle. 4 golden fried whole chicken wings and an original Belgium waffle. Also ordered a Salmon Patty appetizer. Everything was delicious. The chicken came out piping hot. There was syrup and hot sauce on the table, & a scoop of butter with the waffle. Definitely will be back to

I went for smothered pork chops today. I had them before, and they were great! Today, I was very disappointed! These days, people just don't seem to care what they sell people as long as they make money. They don't provide food as if it is for themselves. Anyway, I was given a lot of potatoes (they were supposed to be mashed, but they were not, they were lumpy). And some pieces were burnt. he or she scraped the bottom of the pan or when they were cooked, some of them were burnt. I was given 2 very small pieces of pork chop with fat on them. I couldn't tell they were pork chops. The first time I tried it, I was given 2 nice size pork chops and a decent amount of potatoes. Apparently, I was given a lot of potatoes to compensate for the little bit of meat!. People just don't do right anymore! They are not fare to the customers or care about them. Its not about satisfying them anymore! Totally dissatisfied and disappointed! However, The Black young man I encountered who was all over the place was EXCELLENT! He was GREAT the last time I visited also! Very caring and welcoming! I thank him for that!

I was disappointed in my 1st North Charleston visit. I left telling others and myself that I would still drive to Columbia instead unfortunately. I was very excited to finally get to the new location. I ordered my FAVE which was the Red Velvet Waffle w/wings and Blueberry Raspberry Kool Aid. That drink I never received, the wings had little to no seasoning and fried hard. The grease needed to be changed. You could taste it in the meat. So, I didn't get to enjoy all of my wings :-(. The service was nice. The restaurant was clean and spacious. My Red Velvet Waffle was good. Just not red LOL.

The food was delicious! Try the ribs, the meat falls right off the bone and seasoned well. The waitress was prompt and polite. Large place where you can bring you ur family and just have fun

Popular place. No complaints. Food was fresh. Service was prompt. Clean and good atmosphere

The food was amazing and it came out really quick! The service from our hostess was also really great. She was really nice. I'd be coming back soon

Food was EDIBLE. But it was not enjoyable. I had the shrimp and grits and my aunt had the smothered chicken n mashed potatoes. The shrimp n grits portion was small, lump in the grits and not enough seasoning on the grits. The entire dish was a 5/10. The smothered chicken was definitely not fresh chicken and u can tell in the crust and taste. Mashed potatoes were the best part of the experience. And that says a lot.

The best hands down. Delicious food, service on point and really nice vibe. Mic drop.

My good girlfriend and I stopped in early on Saturday and were seated promptly as they had just opened. I'm not sure why but it was very muggy/humid inside the restaurant. Nonetheless I got the 4 chicken wing and french toast as it seemed to be a fam favorite on Yelp. I really enjoyed the mimosa and could have easily knocked back 3. The French toast was really good and pipping hot. The chicken was "ok" as you could tell it was not cooked in fresh grease from the taste and it could have used a tad bit more seasoning. It was hot but it didn't seem fresh hot, if that makes sense... it was as if it had been reheated in the older grease. The reviews kind of confused me because I had very high hopes. Maybe this was just a bad day. Nonetheless, you should give it a try and make your own decision. May be back to give it one more shot but we shall see.

Wanted to love this place so badly. Only reason they are getting two stars is because the host who sat us was above and beyond and I didn't get his name a younger guy. We arrived at 12:50 and didn't have food until 2:00. There was only 3 of us and the place looked to be busy but not that busy because the tables beside us that have much larger parties were in and out. Having heard that the food was worth the wait we waited was checked on maybe 2 times and the 3rd the waitress said let me look and see where the hold up is. Shrimp and grits seemed to be covered in brown gravy (packaged). My chicken was unflavored and the waffle my goodness could have cause anyone a concussion. It was worth the experience but will not be back. My only take away was the watermelon kool-aid was delicious.

I've eaten at the newer location, but this was my 1st time here. Our server Ed was excellent! Bubbly, funny, and attentive. Please ask for him! Food was great!, was a little cold inside and took a bit for our food to come out. But you can tell everything was prepared to order. Please try this place out and use the call ahead feature on Yelp to put your name on the list!

Heard so many great things about Kiki's so I decided to try it with some family and friends. The waitress was very polite and patient with our large group. Every single dish was cooked to perfection. The chicken and red velvet waffles were amazing. The fried pork chop was seasoned so well and the sides of collards, rice and gravy and Mac n cheese were very good. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals.

Stopped in while visiting family, and WOW!!!! The service was amazing, our waitress was a joy to talk to. The food was fast and hot! I ordered the smothered chicken, mashed potatoes were sooooooo yummy, great texture and flavor, the gravy on top was better than grandmas.......and it brought the dish all together , for a truly southern meal!!! I plan on going back EVERY time I'm in town!

Excellent food and nice waitress however wait time was a bit much and waitress did disappear. So more of a sit down kind of restaurant. I do highly recommend though

The chicken and waffles are great. The vegetables and service are ok. They do not answer the phone. Take out and pickup orders are only done through door dash if you are within their area; Otherwise you may place your order on door dash and select pickup.

Kiki's has. the best soul food in Columbia. Their signature Chicken and Waffles are tasty and addictive. The chicken is always well cooked. I have never had food that was not good dining there.

The chicken is fantastic and the best smothered pork chops I ever had! Great service- staff was so friendly! The food came out quickly and they had a totally decent wine selection!

@discover_sc SC Foodie Trail Stop 3: Kiki's Chicken & Waffles (Parklane) #discoversc Lunch Special: 1/2 Belgian Waffle (Sweet Potato) & 3 wings. The wings were excellent. The waffle was a bit too sweet! Didn't know they were going to add sugar on top! I tasted the plain Belgian. I think I'm just a plain waffle and pancake guy.
