    Grouper special was delicious. Grilled seafood appetizer, perfection. Finished with baklava which was wonderful, as well. Quality of food, service and ambience are by far the best in the region.

    Please keep in mind that the manager/owner was sitting in the corner booth by us with her boyfriend and received her food in 20 minutes or less and we hadn’t even received our first drink. It took 2 hours before we were able to order our main course. We were served bad shrimp saganaki and asked that they replace it the seafood trio dish. Seafood came out after everyone was done eating and was raw. No one came to check on us. We were still charged for everything. Poor service poor food and no one checking on us. 19 year old serving and couldn’t recommend wine or drinks. Two of us spent close to $200 and would’ve been better off at a fast food restaurant. We will NEVER go back.

    What a nice surprise to have this new Greek restaurant pop up. The menu had so many interesting options and we all could have ordered a lot of different entrees. We went with some pretty traditional options. Half a lemon chicken, lambchops with mint pesto and pastitsio. All three were excellent. The saganaki to start was pretty run of the mill. Wouldn't order it again, but all three entrees would be repeats. The lemon chicken had such flavor along with the potatoes and veggies. The mint pesto was out of this world with flavor. We will be back. Great night! Great service from Tom, too. Very attentive!

    We love going to NISI but I have to say this time it wasn't as outstanding an experience. I had an excellent Negroni cocktail. The baked chicken was tasty but the white meat was a bit dry. The rice pudding dessert was outstanding--great texture, a hint of citrus, with a burnt sugar crust. Yum! We asked for decaf coffee with cream and sugar for the first time here. The coffee: it always disappoints me when I get milk instead of cream or half-and-half. The body of the coffee ends up pale and thin, and the lack of milk fat doesn't carry the coffee flavor. Yuck. As usual, we had great service, and we love the ambiance and vibe of the crowd.

    Second time at Nisi and it does not disappoint. Great food from start to finish. The spreads are delicious, I would have licked the bowl if it was acceptable behavior. The bakalava melts in your mouth and every meal we’ve had is scrumptious. Great service and drinks. An absolute must and worth every penny!

    Ordered gyros but got pork shiskabob - they said that was gyros. Menu said 'gyros' not 'pork gyros' . Saganaki was undercooked and very tough to chew. No butter or olive oil provided for bread. Empty water glasses had to ask for more. Took forever to get the food. They call themselves a Greek restaurant but nowhere close to meeting that standard. It was our first and last visit.

    We had the mix grill and the fillet mignon. The mix grill was fabulous that included shrimp, octopus and calamari and shrimp. All very tender and excellent to the pallet. The fillet mignon was ordered medium rare, and came medium well. However, the tenderness was not affected, and it just melted in your mouth. The seasonings were delectable. Emma was an excellent server, and very joyous. We had the dark chocolate cake and ice cream for dessert, which was also excellent. I recommend this place as it is one of the best restaurants in the area. The noise level, however, is extremely energetic!

    Not your usual Greek dishes like going to Greek Town but the food was definitely good. A bit on the pricier side for the area but a nice place for a Greek meal in the area. We will be back but not as often as we probably would if the prices were more reasonable.
