    There was a hair in my friend’s food. The manager did not seem to care, saying “it happens and there’s nothing I can do about it at this point.”

    Food was great, but service was horrible. There was only 1 server for ALL of the tables down stairs. We also ordered apps and entrees all up front. The meal wasn't coarsed at all. EVERYTHING came out ALL AT THE SAME TIME. Not to mention my cocktail didn't come out until all the food was brought to the table. it took over 30 mins to get a drink. Food was amazing, and not the servers fault for being over capacity, but still a really rough experience.

    We’re so glad we decided to try out Nisos for happy hour — it was absolutely worth it! Our server, Anthony, was fantastic. He made sure we got all our orders in before happy hour ended and took great care of us the entire time. The caviar bites, especially the arancini, were absolutely delicious. The happy hour cocktail list was also excellent — so many great options! The service overall was outstanding. The floor manager even noticed we were a little tight on space and graciously moved us to a private booth, which made our experience even better. The music and ambiance are a 10/10 — you truly feel like you’re on vacation. We’re already planning to come back soon to check out the steakhouse and lounge for a special occasion. Highly recommend!

    KC, thanks for taking the time to leave such a fantastic review! We are so glad to hear that Anthony helped to make your experience comfortable, and that you enjoyed your drinks and food. We can't wait to welcome you back soon for another unforgettable meal!

    The HH at Nisos Prime is superb. The $1 oysters were fresh and at an unbeatable price. The other apps were good too!

    The food was AMAZING! The Wagyu SmashBurger and Lamb Ragu LITERALLY melted in your mouth. Also, if you're a mushroom fan, do not pass up the mushroom side sauteed in a cream sauce.
    Prime Bar at Nisos PrimeResponded on February 26, 2025
    Justyna, thank you for your kind review! We're delighted you enjoyed our Wagyu SmashBurger and Lamb Ragu - two of our signature dishes. The mushroom side is definitely a fan favorite as well. We strive to deliver an exceptional dining experience with every visit, and it's wonderful to hear we hit the mark. We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. Cheers!

    The service was disappointing. The hostess was rude, and our server was unfriendly. While the pastas were delicious, the portions were surprisingly small. Our group was informed that we could continue our evening in the lounge after dinner, only to later be told that entry required tickets at an absurd price. It would be helpful if the staff were more informed and communicated all details upfront.

    This has all the makings of a really good restaurant; very vibey, good food, nice drinks. But the service - from the hostess stand, to the servers - leaves a lot to be desired. It’s a steakhouse price point with the hospitality of a chain (or worse). Go only if you have the patience for being hustled along, refused to be seated unless full party has arrived (accompanied with a warning on time) and servers who could care less.
