My friend and I had a wonderful evening -- the food was excellent, the service both efficient and gracious, and the atmosphere was lovely. And I loved that even though the room had a great "buzz," you could actually talk to the person you were with and not have to shout over the din. Highly recommended! read more

A great dinner spot for seafood/greek inspo! I seriously enjoyed my meal so much and want to come back especially for the lobster pasta. I started with the salmon crudo which was so refreshing and zesty! The quality of seafood is especially good here!!! The star of the show is truly the lobster pasta. This dish is something I can't stop thinking about it. It was so filling so the price is very justified. The lobster was so buttery and juicy and the pasta melted in my mouth. Probably the best squid ink lobster ive ever had. overall i had a great experience with the food and service as i was served quick. i will recommend this to everyone i know and definitely be returning read more

Had made reservations for a friends birthday for 8 pm on a Thursday evening, and we managed to get reservations 3 days before our preferred date. Reservation process was fairly straightforward for a group of 4 and a 2 year old. They had this amazing outdoor seating what they refer as Outdoor Courtyard... they were these 3, well lit beautiful booths, where we really wanted to seat, but weren't given those. From the time we entered to the time we left, 2 of them were unoccupied. Don't understand the rationale behind that especially when we were celebrating something special! Anyway, that however, isn't indicative of their excellent, and friendly staff that made us feel very welcome and were very attentive throughout our dinner course here. We ordered a few delicious cocktails, which average at about $18 each. Cocktails were great. We started off with Traditional Trio Spreads ($23) and Spinach Pies ($18) to share. Our server was kind enough to include an extra pie because it was the 4 of us. This plate typically comes with 3 pies. 1 star just for this kind gesture! Appetizers were good and quite tasty. Sadly those were the best dishes we had. We had ordered Pasta for dinner which included Seafood Orzotto ($36), Lobster Pasta ($46), and a Summer Risotto ($29). My risotto was really bland and did not nerai any standout flavor. All I could taste was cheese and I was hoping the snap peas and trumpet mushrooms along with mint would have added some refreshing taste... but no. It was just bland and no spice whatsoever! Service overall was excellent and their garden seating was very comfortable including a very fancy high chair for our little one! We had a decent experience. read more

This place earns my strongest possible recommendation. Their dishes surpassed my highest hopes. Hospitable, pleasant, inviting, qualified. The bill reflects their quality level. This spot offers a standout dining option. read more

Very nice ambiance, sparkling silver and glass with a strikingly elegant bar in front, perfect for waiting out for friends or a table. Once seated, the setting is just perfect in every respect---lighting, noise level and decor all just right. Service was efficient, attentive and polite. Made you feel special. The Mediterranean / Greek food was excellent with many appealing appetizers. I especially enjoyed the classic Greek salad my only negative was the price. A couple of entrees were over $70! The least expensive was $29. So, we each stayed with an appetiser and a salad which was far more than enough, as portions are quite large. read more

Good midtown location, relatively easy to park if you come early. Service is very good, workers are pretty good at getting you seated quickly and your food ordered and brought pretty quickly. The food overall very spot on with good presentation. Good dinner date place read more

I went here for an early date dinner and food and service exceeded my expectations. This place specializes in Greek food with a heavier emphasis on seafood, and reservations are highly recommended although there is an above average amount of seating for a typical NYC restaurant. The ambience here is so aesthetic, and you can't go wrong with either indoor or outdoor seating, though we opted for indoor when we arrived. We shared a grilled octopus and lobster pasta. Grilled octopus is very chewy and fresh, with sweet fava contrasting the tangier onions and red peppers. It's hard to find places like this that can cook the octopus like this as most I have tried are usually overcooked. Lobster pasta was quite interesting. You get huge chunks of fresh lobster tossed in a bed of squid ink linguini, and the sauce is quite sweet and creamy to match the sweetness of the lobster. She likes sweet food so this was the perfect dish to conclude the meal. I personally enjoyed it, noting that the portions are way more than enough for 1, especially as this dish is a bit one dimensional in flavor - mostly just sweet. Service is great: they pushed the tables out for us to get seated and refilled our waters very frequently. Although we took our time eating and conversing, we were in and out in an hour just because they're so efficient in serving. read more

Modern upscale Greek restaurant. I had the pleasure of dining here last night for dinner. The menu is your Greek favorites made to perfection. We had the zucchini chips and Greek salad for apps. The zucchini chips were so paper thin that they just melt in your mouth. The Greek salad was so fresh and delicious that it reminded me of when I visited Greece a few years ago. I had the Orzotto seafood pasta for dinner. The mussels and shrimp were soo tasty along with the Orzotto dressed in a lemon sauce. So light and delicious! The waiter was attentive and the restaurant is beautifully decorated. read more

We went here a couple weeks ago on a visit to New York. It's a narrow spot and a little hard to find, but once you're inside, it's very intimate and cozy. It's not that big inside, and the acoustics are also good, so you can actually hear yourself talk. I had a duck breast with moussaka withduck confit and duck breasts with fig jus and black lentils, which was excellent. We also had delicious zucchini chips with tzatziki sauce and honey shrimp in katafi. Desserts were also wonderful, including a tahini, parfait with pistachio ice cream and pistachio walnut baklava. Service was excellent, never overbearing, never rushing us, but someone always available when needed. Definitely a go to for Greek in New York City. read more

Everything was very delicious here. Hands down the best Greek food I've ever had. The lobster pasta was very good... My complaint was the lobster was obviously not fresh. It was on the mushy side and tasted like it was previously frozen. The meatballs were also very good. I love the sauce. I did not like the bread it came with... It was very burnt and I had to have it remade. The burnt parts smelled awful. The feta cheese was delicious on the Greek salad. I don't like olives, but my husband gobbled it up. The risotto was perfect! I love the mushrooms... And I love the bite the risotto had. Price was on the higher side. The service was great. I think lots of people come here for business meetings. Everyone around us was in blue suits lol read more

Overall I had a good experience and would rate them 4 stars. I made a reservation for Easter Sunday which did require a credit card to hold the reservation. The cancellation fee is $25 per person if you cancel in under 24 hours. The only disconnect I had here was a little on the table service and a few things that turns me off. First off I addressed the issue with the phone system, when you call they state to call beck after 4 pm although after 4 pm you could not get through. I addressed this and hope it will be resolved soon. The second thing was that they allowed customers in the enclosed courtyard with a dog? This May technically be outside and for all intensive purposes is really an inside space. The waiters were polite and did their job well overall. My issue was they could have come over to ask how everything was. I am being a little critical although I am comparing this restaurant to other high end restaurants that are in this neighborhood. This was probably influenced by a table of four people who were overly loud to the point it was interrupting the other tables from hearing each other. They broke out in laughter several times and after two of these outbursts I think a manager should have come over and addressed this which never happened. If this was a bar, neighborhood diner, pizzeria, etc. I could have been understanding. This was Easter Sunday when families get together and people should show consideration for others. The hostess and manager were friendly and accommodating. I made the reservation for the courtyard outside which has is enclosed, has heaters above each table, and the outside was decorated with flowered. I was given an option to sit inside which was beautiful. The restaurant was clean, distanced for COVID, everyone was wearing masks, although maybe I missed it although did not see hand sanitizer. The food was excellent and presented well with great flavor. Portions are adequate, not large by any means. We were a party of three and had the grilled octopus and special salad. For the main course had the spring risotto with snap peas, king trumpet mushrooms, mint, and kefalograviera. The 8oz filet mignon served with feta mashed potatoes, mushroom, and mavrodaphne jus. Also the baby lamb chops served over melitzanosalata with marinated eggplant, samos currants, pine. nuts and lamb jus For desert tried the Sokolatina which is milk chocolate mousse | flourless chocolate cake | raspberries | vanilla gelato. I would recommend them and will probably come back and dine inside. read more

If I could rate this a 4.5 stars I would. It's not quite 5 as I wasn't extremely impressed with the food. Unfortunately had to ask for salt for the Greek salad bc it was pretty bland. The lemon gnocchi was fine - nothing earth shattering. Really enjoyed the zucchini. The staff, however, were amazing!! Very attentive & polite. The decor and ambiance of the establishment was fun and unique. read more

surprisingly good restaurant! One of limitation of our group this time was one of my friend is vegetarain so restaurant we go has to have vegetarian option and Nerai has it. I have tried all food, vegie and regular and they were great! quality and service was professional and wonderful. We had salad, drinks, pasta, duck, coffee and dessert. There were a construction and smell near by so they moved us to sit in different table to avoid the unpresented smell. The vibe is good. I have a mix feeling between tourist spot and local spot because this place is in a tourist area but for me as a resident I still go because I was shopping in the area and just want to find some nice place to eat. read more

A close friend designated me to chose a restaurant for her birthday dinner. I knew Nerai was it! I'd been wanting to dine here since the summer with their beautiful outdoor setup. I'd been in contact with Joy (event planner) being that we would be a large party who was extremely helpful and a pleasure to work with. Upon arrival our temperatures were taken then we were seated there after. Indoors gives a beautiful garden vibe with greenery and subtle pops of color & great air circulation. For my meal I went with the Lavraki which came with a delicious garlic spinach. The fish was filleted & cooked perfectly. Our waiter continuously checked in with us, also answering all questions and giving great entree suggestions. Nerai is stunning inside and outdoors, I look forward to my next visit! read more

I won't lie, the food here is very good--I enjoyed everything we ate. Having gone to to Greece for two weeks in July, I was looking for something to remind me of the amazing food I had there, and the food hit the spot. The prices, however, did not. Now I came in kinda knowing that, but that didn't take any sting out of the final bill. A Greek dinner wouldn't be complete without a nice glass (or bottle) of crisp Greek white wine, and this dinner was no different. Our bottle clocked in at $80, more than I had been hoping (again, compared to my time there where a bottle could be as little as €15) but it was still very good. There were far more non-Greek options on the menu than I would have anticipated, but I suppose that's to cater to folks that just don't know how good Greek wine is. The somm (yes, they had one) did provide this great recommendation, but only after trying to upsell us (as expected) to something in the triple digits. For starters, we got the zucchini chips with tzatziki, the three spreads, and the greek salad. Zucchini chips were on point, and the tzatziki was pretty good. A little cucumber heavy, but the yogurt was done well. The salad was very good, nice and vinegar forward like I like, but the three spreads...unfortunately, I was hoping for more based on the amount of pita they gave us. Tasty yes, but I literally wanted more. What a weirdly small portion size. Generous pita, though. For dinner I totally zoned in to the whole fish, and I thought it was extremely tasty. It came pretty much deboned, and the lemon-based sauce was excellent. I won't harp too much on it, but we did have to embark on several scavenger hunts to find our waitstaff and once or twice almost got up to pour our own wine (which was chilling just out of reach). Meh. It's easy to rack up a bill here, and given the location on 54th street, I am not surprised. Clearly there are pros and cons, but if you want to go ham on some upscale Greek food, come on in. read more

Really cute place! The inside is really nice. They have outdoor dining also in a coveted environment but with all the construction outside, didn't seem like a good option (it was both loud and smelly). As for the the food, we loved the trio dip but mostly just the spicy tzatziki sauce. The pita bread it came with was delicious. Also really enjoyed the lamb entree and scallops. Great wine list - I really enjoyed the assyrtiko. They had a sign for some Sunday special - discounted prefix menu or something - will have to come back and check it out! read more

Amazing food! We had duck moussaka and duck breast with fig jus. Also braised short ribs with paccheri. On the side was creamy rice with spinach and tomato. All were excellent. Especially great was the braised short ribs paccheri. The braised short ribs were so tender and flavorful. Paccheri was cooked just right. This could have been the best meat dish I've ever had in my life. Waiting staff were all friendly. It was Thursday night and place was completely packed. All seats at the bar were taken and there were people still waiting at the entrance. Don't forget to make a reservation. read more

All their food is definitely worth the price. Their food is always fresh and hot. Their ingredients have very high quality. Their staff is clearly well-trained.

I will definitely find time to come back here some time. read more

I was there on a Sunday evening. It was my second time and the experience and food were as good as the first time. The restaurant was busy but you could still get a table during the peak hours on Sunday evening. This time we ordered pita and hummus, spinach pies, coconut shrimp for appetizers, and halibut for the main course. I highly recommend their pita and hummus, and coconut shrimp. If you are not a dill lover, I'd avoid the spinach pies and halibut as the dill flavour was strong. They were really good though! We also ordered the baklava and the pistachio ice cream was perfect! Also I wanted to add that I had their signature lobster black ink linguine last time and it was delicious! Hands down the best lobster linguine in midtown nyc. read more

Wow We are amazed by how good Nerai is! Food: we had grilled octopus, grilled fish n lobster pasta. N their free bread along with its yogurt. Just amazing. We have had a surprising dinner for a while. Grilled octopus is so tender n it's purée is also amazing. Grilled fish also a must where I would recommend to eat it before lobster pasta so that you can taste the freshness of the fish, the unique smell of its grilling style n the lightly burned but still delicious fish skin. Lobster pasta is da Ace u need to order. I will not describe as you should really order it n understood why I said so. Overall, amazing. Would be great if you reserved first. Their bar looks amazing too (ps) read more

Wow, this meal was extraordinary. I wanted to take my wife here on a date. It was a beautiful Friday afternoon, but then rain and storm came out of nowhere. The manager at this restaurant called me to cancel the reservation, saying that the rain would ruin the experience for dining outside. He mentioned that if I came in to pick up food instead, we would get 15% off. I would have come without the discount! We ordered the lobster pasta, deboned fish, the dip platter, and the baklava. Achilles, the gentleman who was manning the store, was friendly and told us stories about Greece, where he is from. Talk about authenticity! He also showed us the outdoor dining area, which was beautiful. There were trees, and what looked like Christmas lights. It's too bad the evening rained out. So we got takeout. The lobster dish was rich and delicious. They were generous with the lobster meat, and the squid ink noodles really hit the spot. The fish was tasty and juicy, and that is surprising because often these dishes come out pretty dry. It is served with capers and olive oil if you're into that. The pita bread with the various dips tasted more like Indian roti compared to pita we had in Greece. I'm not saying it's better or worse, but it was different. Finally, the baklava brought us back to our trip to Greece last year. We cannot wait to come back and try the other dishes, and we will pick a day where the storm stays away. read more

I had a business dinner here with colleagues and was not disappointed! Firstly , the vibe is cool with a nice bar area yet we dined upstairs which was a bit more intimate ( the lighting is quite subtle and sheik with great decor). Service was phenomenal sets the benchmark for NY dining in my mind. We order a lot of food : tuna tare tare, spinach turnovers for reference and a Caesar . As far as mains , it was basically all fish with Salmon and Halibut . All were exceptional with everyone very happy and impressed . A top notch venue and lives up to the ratings!! read more

I found myself at Nerai the other night for an educational dinner. I always like to attend these because not only do I learn something but more times than not I get to try a new restaurant. The pics and reviews for Nerai looked great, so I was really looking forward to trying out their fare. Nerai is an upscale Greek restaurant. Walking in, it looks like a typical Manhattan restaurant - narrow and crowded with a sizable bar towards the front. The decor is clean - mostly a light color scheme with touches of contemporary design; it gives off that upscale feel which is very inviting. We were seated in a private room downstairs and even though we were in the basement the color scheme made it feel open and welcome. Because it was an educational dinner, we were only able to choose our entree - but we really got a wide variety of food. We started with pita and three dips - tzatziki, hummus, and spicy feta. The dips were quite tasty - my favorite was the spicy feta since it was the most unique, the other two were good but on par with other Greek places I've been to. They were really generous with the warm pita which was much appreciated. We then moved onto the Greek salad which didn't contain lettuce but rather lots of chunky tomato, cucumber, and onion. It was seasoned well and topped with a huge piece of feta mmmmm. For the main I chose the salmon which sat on top of spinach orzo. The salmon was cooked perfectly - it had just the right amount of crisp on the exterior and cooked medium and tender on the inside. The spinach orzo was a great complement - it was creamy without being too rich or overpowering the fish. For dessert we had chocolate cake which was actually more of a mousse since it didn't contain sponge. It was nothing amazing but a nice finisher to the meal - plus, it came with a small scoop of ice cream which acted as a palate cleanser. Service was good, everyone was friendly and food was served at an appropriate pace. Overall, I was impressed with Nerai - which is rare for me to say because I normally don't get the best of what a restaurant offers when I go to educational dinners. While this isn't the cheapest place, I would definitely be open to coming back for a special occasion - or another educational dinner ;-) read more

We had a really nice work dinner. We sat outside in their 'garden patio'. Our server was really good at making recommendations and checking in on us. We also never felt rushed, which is different from most places nowadays. We order some of the starts and entrees. I had the halibut and it was perfectly and beautifully prepared. We had the spanakopita, zucchini chips, warm cheese starter and fried shrimp. All was quite good. They kept the drinks flowing and the dishes were just the right amount. Highly recommend it! read more

I went here with a few others for my birthday several months ago specifically for their $49 pre-theater dinner (along with an extra appetizer) which turned out to be a fantastic deal. Their service was excellent as well. I had a glass of their assyrtiko which was good. Someone had a glass of wine which was a nice pour. This is in short a fantastic restaurant and I recommend their lamb chops; ordered rare of course. My only issue is that the vegetarian main was not that good. Bread with white bean dip- This was served at the beginning. The bread was warm and good as expected. The dip reminded me of something from my local area and it had some nice flavors. Extra appetizer: Haloumi me Sika- grilled haloumi cheese- fresh figs, shaved fennel salad, toasted hazelnuts, balsamic glaze. We ordered this as an extra dish. The haloumi was well grilled ans the flavors were nice. The figs as well as the glaze added some sourness as well as some nuttiness. There was something bitter about it as well; perhaps from the fennel salad or something else; just as a note. Appetizers: Soutzoukakia- Meatballs, tomato ragu, herbed rice, crumbled manouri cheese. I ordered this as my appetizer. The meatballs were very tender and overall the dish was good. The sauce reminded me as expected of kokkinisto but more strongly of tomato. Horiatiki- Greek tomato, feta, cucumber, onions, olives, tomato butter This was probably the best appetizer. There was very fresh tomatoes/feta and the bottom was unique compared to other Horiatiki's, almost like a dakos with some grains in there. Very large. Spanakopita- Individually wrapped parcels with spinach, artichokes, dill and feta cheese served with ouzo yogurt This was a little sourer than other versions (probably due to the light artichoke flavor) but overall it was fine. The portion size was a bit small however. Revithokeftedes- Chickpea fritters served with grilled pita, hummus and harissa For some reason, this was served more like a falafel. The dish was just fine though I would not order it again. Overall the appetizers were good and unexpectedly large for a prix fixe menu. Mains Paidakia sti Skara- (+$6) Lamb chops, honey glazed carrots, dolma, oregano jus I ordered this, rare as usual, and this dish was both massive and delicious. The lamb was super tender and I was surprised there were three large pieces with a prix fixe. The sauce on the bottom was outstanding and the dolma were unique but good. This dish is highly recommended and would be worth it on the main menu as well. Lavraki - Whole grilled loup de mer deboned, fileted and served with oregano, ladolemono and capers This is the dish they are most well known for and it is quite a good tender piece. The sauce is similar to what you find in a lot of Greek fish places and it worked well with the very tender fish. The fish overall was good and the portion was similarly quite large. Solomo- Pan seared ora king salmon, spinach rice, crispy leaks Salmon had a great sear on the outside and was tender in side. The spanikorizo in particular was excellent and I would definitely order it as a side dish. The portion was slightly smaller than expected. Vegetarian Risotto: This was easily the weakest of the three dishes and I consider it to be the only throwaway dish of the main dishes. The cheese was nice but the texture reminded me of mac and cheese more than a fancy dish. I'd much appreciate their interpretation of a briam or something similar (or some mix of spanakorizo and something else.) It was pretty but not super good. Desserts- We were quite full but desserts were next. Kataifi Ekmek- Vanilla custard, chantilly cream, pistachios with mastiha gelato. I ordered this as my dessert. The custard and creme were good. I was a big fan of the gelato which had a slight herbal flavor thanks to the mastiha. This was an interesting solid take on ekmek. Cheese plate with kumquat As with other dishes, there was a nice portion size. The cheese was good and the kumquat reminded me of mostarda which was fine but perhaps a little too strong for the cheese. Saragli- Hand-rolled baklava, tahini parfait, sesame brittle, pistachio gelato The baklava was nice and soft. The tahini and sesame had some nice nuttiness. The gelato was also quite good as well. This was probably the strongest of the desserts. Greek Yogurt Trio- Thyme honey & pecans, quince, sour cherry Sour Cherry: Topping reminds me of Saranti's. Very good Thyme honey/pecans: Light honey, sour yogurt. Good Quince: A bit too strong/bitter. This place is overall excellent and one of the best Greek places I have been to in a long time if not the best in the city. That deal is excellent and you leave quite stuffed. I'd change up the main vegetarian dish but otherwise, top notch food. 4.8. read more

Super satisfied with my visit, the service, and my food at Nerai! We were celebrating a friends birthday...started the day off at the Spa and headed over to Nerai for our reservation. BEAUTIFUL restaurant. The clean white/off white decor with splash of blue felt so welcoming. I was already sold. The host took our coats at the front, and we headed upstairs. Upstairs is just as beautiful. Open airy with the white/oatmeal decor and beautiful colorful roses on the table. Our waiter for the night was Grigorio AKA as Greg! He was sooooo delightful and pleasant. He went over the menu a few times with us, told us about the specials and we were ready to order. Had to start with my beloved hummus of course. It was sooo good, with the warm pita bread. Then we had beet salad - DELICIOUS! I love a good beet salad, and this one had green apples in it. It gave it a nice crunch and additive. For the main - my 2 friends order the Lavraki, I opted for the Kakavia, and another friend had Octopus, with Lemon potatoes. We all know we eat with our eyes first right? So when the Lavraki came out, I was already excited. It looked delicious! I was bit saddened I didn't order it. Anyway, my Kakavia arrived. Very simple presentation, but I was all in. I began eating and it was great. There were a few pieces that I didn't enjoy and Greg resolved it for me. He brought me out the Lavraki and I was in heaven! Soooo good! Light, tasty, seasoned, and just an overall great meal. That was more my speed. Greg also suggested we had dessert - we ordered the chocolate mousse and Greek yogurt sundae. And for a surprise, he brought out another for the birthday girl with a candle and we all sang to her. Oh - we had Pom Fashion mocktails, glass of wine, and Persephone - ALL GREAT! It was a beautiful night. I will def do a date night here...I can't wait to return! read more
