We have never been disappointed with this gem of a restaurant. Delicious scratch food, great service, pleasing ambience, and great acoustics so you can visit. One of our favorites.

Service was great. Enjoyed happy hour drinks and food. Recommend lobster rolls and clam chowder. Fish sandwich is the biggest fish sandwich I’ve ever seen.

NII is a great restaurant in a great location. Normally, I love the food and ambience. Last time, my biscuits and gravy were exceedingly salty.

We've had amazing brunch experiences here! The food is for sure delightful and full of flavor. The people really make the place; our server Darrell has helped us out on 2 different occasions and has been our absolute favorite. He's helpful, jokes with us and offers advice on food and drinks. We also like that we can get to know the people who work there and actually ask them about their day. That's what we look forward to the most - the people connections.
