The food quality is very great and the portion is generous. I highly recommend this restaurant if you visit downtown Burlington. I have 2 feedbacks:1. This is a Greek restaurant and the most authentic salad is Greek salad obviously however, there is only ONE black olive in the salad! I checked with my friends and they all got only one olive. I mean the signature of a Greek salad is the olive and its missing! I checked with the watress and they mentioned they noticed it too but still no change!2. There is no Greek or any types of music at the background. It gives the vibe that you are in a casual restaurant even though it can be a nice dine in date night place. It takes away from the vibe of the Greek restaurant!Otherwise, everything else is amazing! Service and food and value for the food are great as well.

Wow, what a restaurant. From the location, view, atmosphere, staff, food, price Nisi is the best restaurant I’ve ever been to. I consider myself a foodie therefore don’t give that statement lightly. Our group decided to get the majority of the apps and share prior to our main and they were all outstanding. Specifically the Dolma and the Calamari were my favourites but they were all unreal. Our main was to die for. The service was outstanding. Such a great spot and their patio view looks incredible. You must dine here.

First time visit - will be going back. Great food, drinks and exceptional service. Looking forward to warmer weather to sit on the patio with the view of Lake Ontario. Only complaint is the bar tables - not great for 4 people…tad tight with the way the 4 legs are on the outside.

I went for an office get together, 6 people and we all were pleased with each meals. Delicious and good portion of food.I ordered a couple of main dishes, shrimp, chicken that comes with two sides, and a Cesar salad with a chicken filet. Lastly the baklava was delicious, a little sweet for my taste but still amanzing.

One of my new fav spots downtown Burlington now. Unlike the place next door p*****woods the quality and flavour of the food is delish. The Greek fries were strange, it’s weird to put tomato. Everything else was great. Not a huge wine selection but, the atmosphere and food makes up for it.

The food served to my family looked nothing like the pictures on their menu. It's a lovely looking place. However the food is subpar. For example they use the frozen chicken skewers from Costco or Walmart the michalego style brand...the meat has zero taste and the fries provided were not fresh cut like in their pictures. For the prices its a total rip off. Burlington has ton of other Greek options were they use fresh ingredients and not premade mechanical food out of a bag. Do not recommend.

Beautiful restaurant, staff and location. However, we found their food quite salty overall, both times that we visited. For this reason, we will not be returning.

Holy cow, NISI takes Greek cuisine to the next level! The reviews are correct, best Greek restaurant in town and hard to get a reservation for. The chicken souvlaki was great, tender, and juicy, the apps were phenomenal as well and well sized, don't skip on the flaming cheese! My only tip is to order extra pita's, the amount that comes with the dip is not enough but don't worry, the extra pitas didn't cost a lot. Great place!

Enjoyed a satisfactory dining experience at Nisi Greek Restaurant. The food was tasty, and the menu offers a variety of Greek dishes. Service was acceptable, though not exceptional. Overall, a solid choice for a casual meal in downtown Burlington.

Visited Nisi for the first time last night. Great location.Parked for free at the burlington parking garage across the street which was convenient.Before we even sat down, the host made sure to tell us that the allowed time for dinner was 2 hours ?? We felt rushed having to order immediately pretty much. We had gone out with friends we didn't see in a while. It was busy but I didn't appreciate being told we had a 2 hour window. Maybe something to adress with the staff. The waitress kept coming to see us (a bit too much) and made us feel rushed to finish.The Saganki is a must to order .. very yummy.We had the moussaka, chicken souvlaki with roasted potatoes and gyros with roasted potatoes. The food was delicious. The roasted potatoes however are better at Mythos (more zesty and tender). Overall nice ambience and a great location would love to go back. Just drop the 2 hour window notice as you're seating your guests down.
