Went here for late lunch with my dad after work since I was surprised it had opened so quickly. He loves Greek food but has had a hard time finding any nearby as a lot have closed over the years so he was cautiously optimistic as he can be very critical of food authenticity. Similarly the prices seemed quite high at first so we only got an appetizer and one entree to share. But upon our food being brought to us (in very timely manner as well) he recanted his feelings on the price after just one bite of the pork shoulder kalamakia. Aside from being absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked and tender, the one entree and the plentiful sides it comes with were more than enough to fill both of us up and well worth the price. All in all we payed $40 for an appetizer, entree, and a dessert and we both can say it was well worth it. On top of this, they also brought us an amazing baklava on the house and all the staff was very kind and accomodating. In terms of the restaurant itself it is incredible what they did to the place, you would have never guessed it was a sports bar before it nor a BBQ place before that. Its warm and inviting with traditional touches all over that add a nice charm. The signage of where to order and such being modelled off street signs you see in Europe gave my dad a smile as it's been quite a while since he's seen one in person. All in all it was an excellent meal and my family is so glad to have some authentic Greek food back in the area. We will assuredly be coming back again soon. read more

I went to Nostomo for lunch and ordered several dishes to try. My family loved the quality of the food. I placed an order for a large catering job. The help that I got from Maria was outstanding. She was so helpful. The food was ready right on time for our event and packaged beautifully. Our guests raved about the food. read more

The chicken skewer dinner and lemon rice pilaf were quite yummy, as were the spanakopitas! I think the space has a lovely vibe with nods to Greece throughout. I'll keep this in mind for a large gathering! read more

Delicious Greek food. Gyro tasted very good - great service as well. Definitely would come back here again soon!

Fabulous service. Nice music and comfortable seating. Food is fabulous. The chicken is done to perfection. Portions are extraordinary. Lamb is great love everything about this restaurant. Family friendly read more

The saganaki cheese balls were good but I would have preferred the traditional way of cooking them and not have it deep fried The beef and lamb gyros meat was the driest gyros meat I have ever eaten It tasted like it was cut days ago We should have returned it for a fresh batch or a refund The pita bread was fresh and delicious and tasted homemade I wish someone would have come by to ask how our meal was read more

What a great place we found today- if you like Greek food this is the place- very friendly staff and the gyros were great- a little pricey- but worth the money - we will be back to try something else on the menu- thanks for the great service read more

Amazing Greek food with casual ambience! The service is as exceptional the variety of food! We loved the Pork kalamakia and the filet mignon kabob! They have incredible loukoumathes and the best part of Nostimo, is you can dine at home via their drive thru! Check it out! It's my new favorite place ! read more

Amazing food with rich flavors and generous portions. Great service and a welcoming vibe--definitely worth a visit!

Our first time and we had take out. As I pulled up the place looked inviting which is hard to find Once inside my food was hot and ready. The cups for my drinks were handed to me. This all means alot to me as service take out has declined On to the food the gyros sandwiches and kids meals was plentiful and mouth watering. My kids who are foodies in themselves lol loved every bite and we are planning for a dine in date. read more

I'm happy to have Greek food in the area. I like the big casual atmosphere of this place, though it was a bit loud. Food was delicious - we tried the egg lemon soup, souvlaki fritters, and the chicken and pork kalamaki skewers. All were great, and I look forward to tasting ither menu items next time read more

The octopus appetizer was outstanding! Also loved the deboned half chicken. Delicious!

Delicious food, fast, quick nice dining room. Was suprised they had a drive through as well?? Delicious soup, Pork Gyro and Zuchini fritters that were top notch. read more

The food was awful. Fries came out raw, and the chicken gyro was dry. Expensive for the quality. Save your money and eat at Arby's. The one good thing was the busser was very attentive. read more

This spot on rand road has been many restaurants. I hope this one sticks. The food was great. I had the Greek chicken the first time there. Delish. I had the combo gyros the next time, also delish! You pay at the counter and they bring you your food. The servers are always around if you need something else. read more

Most authentic gyro in the area would 1000% recommend! Owned and ran by Greeks! Get the loukoumades!

Very tasty Greek specialties. The chicken skewers are excellent. It's a nice casual place to share a meal with friends. The staff are very friendly and hospitable. Everyone gets a piece of free baklava. The only item on the menu that I didn't care for were the chicken gyros. They were very dry. The zucchini fritters were great. The imported bread was also excellent. It's my new "go to place" for fresh, healthy and tasty food. read more

10/10 the service was amazing, great ambiance. I got the calamari. So buttery soft and delicious. Also got a gyro and it was so flavorful. The tzatziki was the best I've ever tried. Will be coming again soon! Delicious! read more

The food was delicious! We ordered the lamb & beef gyro plate & the chicken skewers. The chicken was juicy & flavored very well , the gyro was amazing highly recommend this restaurant! read more

Food is 5-star! Order at counter, food came out in timely manner Staff very friendly, Only negative for some is how loud the atmosphere it gets at busy & dining area is rather full. (Which is often!). Great place to order take out too! Highly recommended!! read more

Their normal (beef or maybe it was lamb) Gyros were great and very enjoyable. However, their chicken gyros... was not a chicken gyro. It was shredded chicken swimming with so much seasoning it was just a mouthful of herbs and lemon juice. Considering this place is known for their gyros I was very very disappointed. What caused this two get 3 starts was their staff was super friendly and the food came out quickly. read more

Super cute inside with great, fresh food! Love the order at the counter and sit down aspect. We will be coming back soon!

Excellent restaurant. They just opened and everything was great. Authentic Greek food that was one of the best we have ever had. Highly recommend read more

Excellent quality Greek cuisine served in a wonderfully redecorated space. The traditional pork gyro was excellent. Can't wait to come back and try some other things. read more

I ordered take out from nostimo and it was by far the best Greek food I've ever had :) Delivery service was quick, and I loved the lamb and beef gyro. Slightly pricey but definitely recommend!! read more

I grew up in the area and this is not the closest Greek spot to us, but it's our go to! It's the most flavorful, juicy gyro meat and seemingly homemade pitas and tzatziki unlike any other Greek place I've had. Love Nostimos, have only had it to go and it's always consistent in portion sizes and quality. read more

Portions were huge. I had a gyro with soup. So fresh and amazing. Hands down will be going back.

Not very tasty and VERY EXPENSIVE!! A side Greek salad was over $20.00! Are you kidding me? The portion of the salad was ridiculous! For that price it should have fed 2-3 people. A chicken gyro plate, gyro sandwich and a side salad for $42-$43? There was no sauce for the chicken gyro, not enough for the gyro sandwich and none on the side. Never again! Don't waste your money! read more

This place is tasty, and a little something different! The food was healthy, with good portions and friendly service.

We dined in and were surprised to see it was counter service. The "tip" portion still popped up at the register and since they brought the food to the table I tipped 8%. I ordered a Greek side salad, saganaki and a chicken shish-kabob plate with Greek potatoes, my wife a salad. The saganaki were little balls that looked like they were frozen and cost almost $12.00. They came before the meal and were very bland. The salad, however, came with the meal so my chicken got cold while I ate it. Save for the saganaki the food was excellent. The staff was friendly and the service prompt. The manager even brought by a couple of little baklava bites for us. The bill for my wife and I was over $70.00 which I would have expected to pay for full service, not counter service. read more

Ordered a 1/2 Greek Chicken dinner. Received a 1/4 chicken at the full price. The entire meal lacked flavor. Took it to the counter and explained that this was a 1/4 chicken (breast and wing)--person shrugged and walk away. My wife has the chicken kabob meal and it was cold--had no flavor either. She took it to the counter and was informed that is was cooked. Not worth the price and yo get ripped off! read more

Great food, great vibe and family feel. Highly recommend if you like basic Greek Food( gyros) or more authentic dishes (kabobs/lamb). My entire family loved it! Nice work Nostimo!! read more

Stoped by for the Gyros, got the Lamb and Beef gyros and a chicken gyro. The Lamb and Beef was very good, it was the least greasy Gyro I have ever had. It was so fresh, perfect amount of onions and tomatoes and sauce was spot on. My daughter had the Chicken Gyro and she enjoyed it very much. There were a half a dozen French fry's on both sandwiches, weird but interesting. We will go back soon. read more

Absolutely outstanding! This place is the real deal for authentic greek food. I definitely had the best pork gyro ever had! My wife had the chicken kabobs with greek potatoes. The chicken melted in her mouth!the service was excellent! The place was packed and the food came out super fast! The decor is unlike any place around, it made you feel like you were in Greece. We will be coming back soon. read more
