So glad we finally got to try Nadim's! The food was excellent, seasoned to perfection and executed perfectly too. Shout out to Xam for the excellent service and recommendations. We had the calamari with toum, mix of beef and kofta skewers, and the scallops dish. I didn't know what to expect for the scallops because a cheesy sauce pairing was so unexpected but it was delicious, also included cauliflower which I love. The scallops still had a really nice sear under the sauce. I had the vegetarian rice with lentils which was super tasty as well. The space can get loud (there was a large rowdy group there when we went and there doesn't seem to be any sound tampering) but still a really nice dining room. The big wall murals are a little much but hey - it works somehow lol. Overall can't wait to return! read more

The food. Falafel was dry and tastelsss and the artichoke salad as well! The service was great. The ambiance was nice.

We had a party of 5 for lunch at 12:45 pm on Monday, 3/31/25. There was no wait. We split a few appetizers and I also shared an entree and a salad with one other person. Here's what I tried: - Hummachos ($15): These were so good! The highlight of the meal for sure. - Hummus ($10): I've had better, this was just fine. - Labneh ($8): Decent. - Vegetarian Grape Leaves ($10): I liked that they were warm. Fine. - Falafel Plate ($14): Very disappointing! Just 3 measly falafel balls, hummus, tahini, parsley, and we chose fries as our side. Nothing special. - Fattoush Salad ($12): Good. Pretty average. We weren't blown away. read more

Nadim's is in downtown Springfield. There's street parking out front, but it's often busy, especially if there's an event at the mass mutual center. We parked for free at MGM and it was only a 5 minute walk over to the restaurant. We had a reservation just in case it was busy! We got seated at a big booth which was nice and cozy. I was very excited to try Nadim's! They had specialty cocktails for the winter season. I had the cranberry margarita, which was good. They bring out pita and oil as a before dinner snack. For an appetizer, we ordered the hummachos. I substituted the ground beef for falafel and then crumbled the falafel over the nachos. They make the pita chips in house so they're extra crunchy. Honestly these nachos were amazing and a big serving size. I could have easily had this as my full meal! For my meal, I tried the monarch sampler platter, which is vegan. It came with hummus, baba ghannouj, tabouli, and veggie grape leaves. It was a fun way to try a little bit of everything! You do need to order a side of pita or rice because it doesn't come with it. Overall a really good meal! read more

Delicious and healthy food, my favorites are the fatoush salad and shish tawook, braised lamb. Lentil soup warms ny tummy on a cold day and you can'tgo wrong with their hummus. Attentive service and sometimes you get a Nadim sighting. Good portions and they have a selection of alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages. You can buy their toum garlic sauce to take home. read more

Food was just okay. It wasn't what I was expecting, especially not the lamb chops. The wait staff was actually kind of slow. The ambiance was great though. read more

I love lamb Kabob & the one in Kabob house Enfield is amazing. I came all the way for lamb Kabob here & was thoroughly disappointed. It looked amazing, although much less than Enfield with 8 pieces vs here only 3 pieces of meat. The flavor is good but much more chewy than lamb, (I had to spit out part of the meat as it was too chewy) & tastes like beef not lamb. I am pretty sure it's beef. Most people can't tell the difference if the lamb is not gamy, but I can. I grew up in Muslim neighborhoods & lamb was the main meat, I like it more than beef & I can always tell them apart from taste as well as texture, not all lamb meat are gamy but they are distinctly different from beef. Out of curiosity, I asked the waitress if they ever substituted beef over lamb? she said no, she was absolutely sure it's lamb but she said she did hear a lot of people think it tastes like beef. That's totally strange, I wonder why, lol. I was gonna give it one star but the fries saved the day, it's very good & so is the garlic mayonnaise dipping. Finally, I didn't like that the way waitress collecting payment on handheld device & watch me selecting tip. I was going to give 15% but that's not even listed, the options start with minimum 18%. I would have to select custom options & go calculate 15% myself under her nose. I gave up, I ended up giving 18% tip not because it deserves it, but because I was pressured into it. The two star rating on the other hand reflects the true experience, an experience that I do not intend to repeat. read more

I was pretty excited to try this place but was sorely disappointed. The best service was from the lady who greeted me at the front. From there it went downhill fast. It took about 10 minutes to be greeted by the bartender, and I placed my order when she came by to get my drink order. Ordered a mocktail and two appetizers, the tabbouleh salad and the grape leaves, expecting to order more as I went. I ordered the beef grape leaves, and received the vegetarian version. I never had a chance to send them back because she never came back to check on me. Tabbouleh- fresh at least. Veggie grape leaves- tasted like they'd been sitting for a long time and were slimy. Two thumbs down. The pita bread that came out wasn't warm and wasn't fresh. Finished my drink and was sitting for another 12 minutes before she came over to check on the guy 3 seats down from me first, who arrived after me. It felt like I had to force her to make eye contact with me. Two stars because at least it seemed clean. I will not be back. Don't waste your money. read more

Great spot with paid street parking nearby. We were seated right away and restaurant was busy. Food came out hot and was flavorful. Cheese roll ups were especially delicious, crisp with melted cheese inside. Restaurant was very clean and comfortable. read more

From the moment we walked through the doors, we felt welcome. This is a significant improvement from the two previous visits. The manager was warm, fun, and attentive as was her staff. Wish I could recall her name as she turned this place around. The food was good. We made a dinner from the apps and it was fun. Then, we finished the night with baklava and bread pudding. The bread puddling was really good - save room. read more

Excellent Middle Eastern food. Highly recommend. Service and ambience very good. Admittedly, I was there before the lunchtime rush.

This was a great dinner stop in Springfield MA. It is right downtown on Main Street, across from the Mass Mutual Center and near the MGM casino. Our hotel was just 3 blocks away. It was Saturday night, so we had made a reservation. They had a lovely outdoor seating area, but it was threatening rain, so everyone was eating inside. It is in a historic old building, with tin ceilings in the main room where you enter. They have a big menu. My husband loved his lentil soup, and I ordered hummus as an appetizer. (The pita bread was a bit chewy--not as soft as we usually like). My husband ordered the chicken kebab with grilled vegetables, which was yummy. They had several salads to choose from. I ordered the artichoke salad with falafel on top--an amazing combination. We had a couple of Berkshire Brewing Co beers. Our server (Edge) was extremely busy, but she checked in on us often, and the food came out quickly. Bathrooms are down a narrow flight of stairs in the back (so not really accessible). Overall, the food and the meal were memorable. Thanks, Nadim's and thanks, Springfield! read more

So delicious The humus and calamari were out of this world I'd eat there everyday if I could read more

On a visit to Springfield, I did some Reddit research and read that this was a good place to eat at. The Reddit community was spot on! It's a nice cozy restaurant serving delicious food. I started off with some pita bread and oil that I enjoyed before moving on to my side Mediterranean salad. That was very refreshing and both made for a good start to my meal. For my entree I ordered the Swai with Nadim's Rice since they both intrigued me, and they both packed a punch! The Swai was cooked to perfection and the buttery lemon sauce it was served with was fantastic. Nadim's Rice was flavorful and a perfect complement to my meal. I'm glad I stopped by and would come back on my next visit. read more

The ambiance is nice but don't order seafood here. Someone in our party ordered scallops, only got 3 of them, and left with stomach pain all night for $32. The food did taste good, but isn't worth the nights worth of stomach pain. Our waitress was solid, and we got a nice seat. read more

Nadim's Downtown Mediterranean Grill - Sea Scallops - Mediterranean Near Me - Springfield, Massachusetts

Nadim's describes itself as a "Mediterranean" restaurant, but that is true only in the most superficial sense of the word. They have no schwarma rotisserie and many of the ordinary dishes of typical cooking in the Levant like shakshuka and kibbeh are absent. The few Levantine dishes they have, like kabobs, are poorly made. For example, in my chicken kabobs the vegetables were small and were burned and there was no onion at all. The cooks are certainly not from the Mediterranean and, in fact, appeared to not even be chefs at all, but just cheap short order cooks who know nothing about Mediterranean cooking or spices. The lentil soup that I ordered was terrible. Not only was it overblended, but it was poorly seasoned and the cook had the audacity to serve it to me cold. The lamb in the kabobs was ok, but everything else was a disaster. I got the vibe that they cared more about their bar than the kitchen. The service was mediocre. When I arrived at the bar to eat the bartender was not even there and did not appear for almost 10 minutes. Then, later, when I was waiting to order something she was busying herself with putting some kind of supply in one of the refrigerators as though doing bar chores was a higher priority for her than taking care of customers that have been sitting there waiting for service. The whole experience was of the never-go-back variety. read more

Excellent falafel!! We stopped and they were completely booked for the evening but they were gracious enough to allow us to sit at the bar! Despite how busy the restaurant was, our bartender and server Jill, was very attentive! Our order came with fresh pita and an infused spice olive oil! We also ordered the Mediterranean salsa as an appetizer which was super light and refreshing! It had feta, chickpeas, jalapeños, olive oil, and spices. I got the fattoush salad with added falafel balls. The falafel balls were huge and cooked so well! Crunchy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside! Not to mention the portion of fresh hummus which was super creamy! We even got to see Nadim and thank him for a great meal! read more

SO good. Authentic and flavorful Mediterranean food. The staff is super friendly and the whole vibe of the place is very laid back. I think this is my new favorite restaurant. It doesn't try to be pretentious. The wait staff is professional and super attentive. Anyone who reads my reviews knows I'm super sensitive to price. Nadims is more than fair with prices for plates. I'll definitely be back soon. To repeat - Soooo good! Imaginative drink specials too! read more

I find their food to be very good. That said, a few things, my partner loves a good beer - their kegs are almost always sour. When I was there last, I noticed "cash price" "credit price." Even though it may be done legally, I find it distasteful. Moreover, their charge for sparling water is insane. Overall, good food - petty charges make for a distasteful meal. read more

We were seated in the back area of the restaurant which only had fans no AC. All day it was over 90 degrees so that was not the most comfy place to sit and eat. I believe the front part of the restaurant had AC. Before our meal we were served pita with a nicely flavored dipping sauce. As an appetizer we had the beef turnover it came with tzatziki sauce. I preferred and used the dipping sauce for the pita bread with the beef turnover. My dinner was the simmered chicken. The chicken was good cut pieces of what meat. The roasted almonds in the dish was a flavorful nice light crunch. My husband had the lamb steak which was seasoned perfectly and tasted outstanding. For dessert I had bread pudding designed by our waiter with whipped cream and carmel sauce. read more

We can't say enough wonderful things about our experience at Nadim's Mediterranean Grill in Springfield. The food was absolutely fantastic--every dish was delicious and had gluten free options!--but what truly made this meal unforgettable was the kindness of the staff, especially our server Xam. We were in town for a funeral and had just come off a hard day of travel, but from the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and genuine hospitality. Our server went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable, checking in on us with the perfect balance of attentiveness and kindness. She had a way of brightening our spirits, which we truly appreciated. Thank you so much and we would highly recommend. read more

Nadim's Downtown Mediterranean Grill - Garlic Mashed Potatoes Lamb Shank - Mediterranean Near Me - Springfield, Massachusetts

The food was below average for Mediterranean food - perhaps because we're from NYC. The quality was just... not there. The wait for the food was long but we seemed to be the only table bothered by the slowness. I guess the pace of life is different there? Lol. Service was pretty slow and the two female servers didn't seem to want to be there. I think they're short staffed. The male employee (manager? He was dressed differently) was nice though. Anyway... I guess the quality of food may be okay for the area judging from the other reviews, but if you're from NYC or any metropolitan area... pass. read more

Nadims is Always delicious & good service. We are never disappointed! Frequent customer.

Door dash driver terrific however the chicken kabobs was just chicken. No veg as shown in pic. Very disappointing for the price

I took out lunch from here on a working Friday. This place seems very popular. To get a seat, there was a 30 minute wait. I ordered food in advance. But it took more than 30 minutes for them to get it ready. So definitely order well in advance. And there were some mess up in the take out order for the guy in front of me. So that delayed as well. I went for Nadim's sampler for 2. It was more than sufficient for 2 people. I also took an extra side of Hashwee rice. That was my absolute favorite here. It is flavorful rice topped with crunchy almonds. Rice pilaf was just ok. Fattoush salad was nice with fresh veggies. Sampler appetizer trio was good - Hummus, falafal and cauliflower. From the 3 meets - chicken, lamb and kafta, kafta was my favorite. The garlic sauce side enhanced the flavor of any thing that touched it. The sampler for 2 came with a set of 4 loaves of bread. That tasted very nice as well. I kept it in fridge and took after a day, but it got spoiled. So it seems not preservative in the bread. Eat it fresh if you get it. read more
