   Came for a bachelorette party. Our server was amazing, the food was delicious and the restaurant was beautiful. We had a wonderful time! I will definitely be back.

   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!

   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.

   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.

   Our waiter, Anthony, ignored us the entire time and another employee (cannot remember her name but may start with a T) ended up taking our order because Anthony was nowhere to be found. Sometime around the middle of our dinner the woman who was assisting us was off for the remainder of the night and still Anthony never acknowledged our presence until it was time for the bill. We asked if the tip could go to the lady who helped us out because he didn’t do anything and Anthony told us no it would go to him. Anthony literally did nothing. The first time Anthony spoke was to bring out a scoop of ice cream for the person in our party whose birthday it was, and then brought the bill right after. I guess that was Anthony’s way of justifying a tip on a $500+ bill he did nothing to receive. We couldn’t even put a face to Anthony’s name until the very end because he never acknowledged us but he was present on the floor the majority of the time we were there, mostly socializing with other employees. The nonexistent service on the part of the Anthony ruined what could have been a great dining experience. The lady who recognized Anthony wasn’t helping us and took our order was very nice though.

    Music was way too loud and the poor waiter who was very attentive had to working the entire floor. The lamb ragu was good but has pork in it which wasn’t stated and the salmon wasn’t seasoned.
