Oh. My. Word. Reminded me of my childhood! This is authentic, Greek food. If you're in a hurry, this is not for you. L❤ve takes time and Nina puts l❤ve into each dish! The pasta Mykonos is legit one of the best pasta dishes I've ever had! Her oven-roasted potatoes are drops from Heaven! Everything is fresh and delicious!

In town as a tourist and took a chance on Pita and Pizza after seeing delicious looking plates on tables inside the front window. Chicken gyros were outstanding and served quickly. The proprietress was so very charming and the pleasant space was spotlessly clean. Looking forward to another meal here!

If you want good authentic Greek food, this is the "IT" spot! Stop by here when y'all are hungry, I PROMISE you wont regret it!!! The owners are wonderful too! A sweet couple, from Greece too! My family and I have made it a "family tradition" of sorts to get dinner from them at LEAST twice a month when we are in town. We've been customers of theirs for the last 10 years. We have our vacation home in Palm Springs and we are there 6 months out of the year from Colorado. They remember us EVERY time we come in, even though they don't see us for 6 months at a time. They definitely remember their customers and treat them accordingly. You are definitely met with the same energy you walk into their establishment with. I wouldn't listen to the negative reviews, it seems like those with negative reviews were met with the same energy/attitude that they were giving the owners and their employees. Anyway, this place is worth your time, energy, and money! You wont regret making this little gem a part of your monthly dinner routine/life. Don't think about it anymore, just get over there and order some deliciously amazing food!!!

Ninah the owner is the rudest person. Prone to melt downs and giving abuse to long time customers. I won’t be back.

Best Greek in the Valley. A small shop but with the best homemade tzatsiki & hummus on the planet, I swear. We love their Greek anything, and recently tried their pizza. Huge 16 inch lasted 3 meals for the two of us and, it got better the older it got. We love it there.

Finally got to try this absolute gem of a restaurant last night and WOW— some of the best Greek food I’ve ever had including in Greece itself! Every single thing we ordered was incredible from start to finish. The vegetarian platter was filled with delicious options, the rice pudding was to die for, and the baklava deserves to be famous. I will not hesitate to get food from Nina’s again, it’s been one of my favorite meals in the desert by far, and the service was great too. 10/10!!

Ordered first time off their menu off their website. Go in to pick up She tried to charge me $30 more! Saying prices went up in the last 6 years since making website! Then I said change your website! Anyway, I showed her own website to her nicely. So she plays dumb old lady that knows nothing. Website says $22 she wanted to charge $39. I said forget it. Maybe she don't like us gays. But any business owner should honor that price until changed. And as a former biz owner she should have at least offered a discount or a piece of desert. But hopefully she goes out of business for her deceptive business practices.

We have gotten many things from Nina's since moving to the desert. Always a good meal. For the first time, last night, ordered a pizza... wow! Everyone has their own "crust" preferences. Nina's is perfection for me. Give this local, fun and unique place a shot. We need her to continue to succeed. ( plus there is a fantastic bakery next door)

Theft.We bought a large order for takeout 10 January '24. The total bill seemed excessive and I questioned it. 'No, it's right.' I paid, cash, and left with our food.Next morning, it still rubs me the wrong way, so I add up our bill from menus online. We were overcharged at least $13 on a $117 bill. So I drove back there at opening time the next morning to question it, double check their current menu prices. Due diligence. Yup, overcharged.I tried to talk to her about it 'No, no, I'm too busy now, I can't deal with it. Come back at 2:00.' It would have taken 3 seconds to give me $13 from the till.OK, 3 hours later, I drive back there, again. She adds up our bill with some 'creative' flourishes like 'Did you get 2 meatballs in your order or just 1? You sure you didn't have hummous? You must have had hummous. Which size salad did you receive?' Well, we ordered a small salad. 'Oh, I think we gave you a large one, so you have to pay the difference.'The last straw was 'Oh, garlic bread! I charged you for two, $8. You have to tell me beforehand if you don't want it, otherwise I include it...You're not local.' Needless to say this is not noted on the menu. She offered to refund 1 garlic bread, $4, which was the final insult. Never again.So, all you non-locals in Palm Springs, if you want to get fleeced, head right to Nina's because she knows how it's done. Con artist. We have traveled extensively in Greece over many years and have never been treated that way anywhere. Stay away.
