Kickers is owned and operated by Abdel and Andrea Dimiati. Originally founded in 2004, the name was derived from a previous restaurant the two had worked with in the area named “Knickers”. After their previous work, the two decided to found their own restaurant, incorporating classic favorites with new and international flavors.

Starting in a small nook on Edgefield Street with only 8 barstools available for seating, Kickers’ small restaurant and takeout business rapidly grew, leading to the new location just around the corner. Our catering has expanded rapidly as well, and we’ve catered for such clients as Mr. Welborn Adams (Mayor of Greenwood), as well as the entire Food Network crew.

Kickers has grown from a small, well kept secret, to a local favorite. Check out our feature in the Lander Forum:
