Horrible. My mom had got food poisoning from this resturant. She has been throwing up ever since we ate food from there. I ordered some chicken from there and it was so dry. Never coming back. read more

We went to Nostimo earlier tonight and had a very nice dinner there. Enjoyed the pork and lamb gyro. Wish there were slightly more gluten free options for my wife but overall it was good , and the customer service was great. Really wonderful caring people read more

Great food selection are very reasonable prices. A family operation with impressive service. And absolutely exceptional coffee and desserts. read more

Good Original Greek cuisine great service. I'd go there again. And was already a repeat customer!

Huge servings, your order at the counter and they run it to your table from the kitchen. Fried calamari with aioli was great. Tzatziki was good, it came with baked pita chips more acidity would have been appreciated but that's personal preference. Pita breads were excellent, I will return. read more

Third time is the charm. In the last 10 years or so, this is the third restaurant to be in this building, but I think this time, it will be here to stay! Nostimo took what was previously the JD's BBQ place and converted it to a fast casual Greek restaurant, with a bright, beautiful interior for a fast casual place. Employees were friendly, establishment was clean, and service was quick. Food was unique and excellent. They have the type of gyro where the meat is chopped and formed as opposed to ground and formed. It was quite delicious, as were the other ingredients in the gyro. The fries they serve remind me of when I was a kid and my best friend's grandmother used to make us homemade fries. They are wonderful! On another note, they are also going to be using the drive thru soon, which I look forward to using on busier days. The only thing I didn't like was the pricing, which seems to be a bit on the high side, especially for a la carte sides, but not enough to deter me from a 5 star rating. Everything else was excellent, hopefully they can run some specials to encourage those of us that would like to visit their drive thru weekly without breaking the bank. Best luck Nostimo! read more

We first came at the recommendation of our Greek neighbors and were thoroughly impressed. This was our third visit, so we've been able to try every gyro pita option and all have been a 10/10. The soup is a must-try, along with everything else. Everything is SO fresh and tastes very authentic. Nothing but good things to say about the service and they have even been giving free samples of their house baklava! Ambiance is not too loud, mostly families, and very aesthetic inside with the interior design. read more

Nostimo - Greek food - Greek Near Me - Arlington Heights, Illinois

See all

Utilizing YELP reviews to assist in my fascination with seeking out new foodie joints, I was intrigued by the description of Nostimo Greek Restaurant in Arlington Heights. My first impression was the clean and welcoming decor, which encouraged me to stay and experience my visit with delight. Unusual that my appetite required little, and as such settled on a side Greek Salad and the appetizer of Spanakopitakia. Both were served in design to entice my tastebuds, and subsequently delivered on the promise. The Salad had the correct variety, temperature, and zest as hoped for. The wonderful tasting and homemade spinach and feta appetizer alas, could use a bit more of the filling ratio inside its wonderfully crisp and flaky envelope. Almost upon completion, I was presented with a 3rd course tasting of Baklava for the finish. This palate is not so appreciative of high level sweetness, but my creative instincts rushed in as I dipped the small parcel into the remains of my Greek Salad Dressing (no judgements!) which balanced the flavors in a surprisingly awesome way! Addendum: I would be remiss not to comment on the less than pleasant service I received at the counter. Not rude as such, yet somehow dismissive. In addition, I feel that the cost of entries are several dollars more than comparable counterparts. Of course, I will be back to try the Beef and Lamb gyros when my tummy growls for it, and my pocketbook feels more relaxed. Overall, a pretty good pick!!!! read more

My family and I already love Nostimo. We dine in and carry out frequently. We visited tonight - service and food were amazing as usual. As we were leaving, I lost my phone and the very nice man working (seemed like the owner or manager) completely stopped what he was doing to help - checking in the garbage, offering up his phone to help, even helped me search my car til we found it - which wasn't even in the restaurant! In all the chaos I didn't even get his name but he was the best - so hopefully you see this!! Just a true family feel to this place which you can't top. I already recommend it to everyone but I'll do so even more. Food, service, vibes 10/10 read more

All in all a great place, food was good. We had the SPANAKOPITAKIA that was great and the Saganaki FRITTERS ( they good but was hoping for better) for starters, along with the GREEK SALAD with CHICKEN KALAMAKIA, the service was excellent everyone was very friendly and helpful and the seating area was nicely decorated and very clean. The only down fall was the price very expensive they have sit down prices but are a quick order at the counter in and out style of restaurant read more

Everything is awesome. food, service and atmosphere. So glad this is in Arlington Height.

Tried this place for the first time tonight and was impressed. They did a nice job with the decor, it looks bright and cheerful and really clean. There were several non-meat items that I could choose from since I don't eat meat. Not even lamb. The rashini (so?) salad was delicious and fresh, the Greek fries were really good. My daughter really liked her chicken, and the Greek pop they have. We were both excited to see they had loukamades bc we'd only ever had them at Greek food festivals before. We took them to go and they give you the honey on the side to drizzle yourself. Sooooo good! Definitely going back soon. read more

this is a followup to my initial review when they opened. Good news, still top notch flavor, service and value. the quality has been maintained which is a testament to any new business. Had the chicken on a stick dinner with greek salad, sooo good. the flavor is deep and cooked perfectly. at other places, the chicken is rubbery and here i ate two full and enjoyed every bite. they come highly recommended. read more

The Greek food was delicious although a little salty. We had the tzatziki, chicken souvlaki, pork gyros dinner and wine. Loved the Greek potatoes as well. Excellent!! We were also given a piece of their orange cake - my husband said it brought back memories. They also served wine and beer Will definitely go back read more

Super fresh tasty Greek salad. Enjoyed Beef & lamb gyro pita. Friendly staff. Clean & casual.

Delicious pita and dips, particularly the roasted pepper with feta. Portions were nice too.

Really great spot for authentic Greek cuisine with all the offerings. Their gyros were cut and served perfectly and we chose the Greek roasted potatoes which were delicious. Service was incredible and they even offered a little baklava on the house. Also their Freddo cappuccino is must-try for an afternoon pick me up. read more

Save your money. It's an overpriced fast food restaurant. You can go to a mom and pop Gyro place and get similar food for half the price. Food was good but not at these prices. Won't go back read more

Always hot and yummy They now have drive-thru open. We love Greek It is not a chain restaurant and we love to support local businesses! Give it a try read more

Just absolutely wonderful! Everything was very well prepared, fresh and tasty. We will be back. Highly recommended.

Great Greek food and the best gyros in Chicago. This is an upscale fast casual place. Super nice interior and excellent food.

I thought the pork gyro the last time I went was very good, not dry. The calamari was also very good. My only complaint would be the loukamades were a little dense. I gave you five stars since Yelp doesn't allow 4.5 stars. read more

Gyro was excellent. Veggies were fresh with it too. Called and placed an order and got it under 15 minutes. Overall good experience and is ideal was nice and quiet but lively. read more

this place is horrible!! they have no vegetarian/vegan opinions! the food is not very good, the salad is soggy. and they took 25 mins just for one salad and rice! bad service. read more

The food is sooo good! We've done dine in and catering and it's always on point. Love that you don't have to order way ahead for catering too. read more

Wonderful place for fast casual greek food! Zucchini fritters, Nostimo bowl and traditonal gyro were top favorites. The meat in the gyro was tender and juicy, not dry at all. And the pita was warm and fluffy! The one thing we didnt like was the calamari. The dining area is spacious with a nice esthetic. Servers came around passing out free samples of baklava which was very tasty. Nostimos will def be a repeat place for us! read more

Great service and great food. Chicken gyro is outstanding. Good vibes. And awesome tzatziki.

I finally made it to Nostimo and boy it did not disappoint. We first had wonderful service even though you order at the counter. Everyone was so friendly. We ordered the zucchini fitters and they were amazing! I will go back just for those! We also ordered the hummus. My boyfriend said it was the best he's had and the pitas were warm and delicious. We also shared the lamb and beef gyro entree with lemon rice and it was also good. We will 100% be visiting in the near future. read more

Fantastic food. Helped me out with a last minute catering order that saved the day when the other option fell through. We had a full spread at a good price within 10 minutes after ordering and it was all a hit. read more

Flavorful gyros from scratch, remarkable hummus, aromatic lemon rice, reasonably priced wine, and pleasant efficient service. Spotless facility. read more

We casually walked into this place on a Saturday afternoon and boy oh boy were we delighted. Food and ambiance were A++++. Super kid friendly, and the service was swift and so incredibly friendly. We will be frequenting this location A LOT more frequently now that we know it's here. HIGHLY recommend. read more

Nostimo is a home-run. Their avgolemono soup is superb. The traditional pork gyros are excellent. I have never had saganaki in the form of a 'fritter" before, but they're tasty. I do prefer the lighting of the fire traditionally but this is perfect for Nostimos' fast-dining atmosphere. Highly recommend. read more

Food is delicious, but the service staff could stand to be more friendly. I have been there 3 times so far, and each time I had similar experiences with the staff. read more

After coming home from our honeymoon, we weren't expecting to be wowed with the authenticity and quality of this place but holy cow was it amazing!! I had the chicken gyro sandwich the sauce on it and flavor of the meat was amazing! We had avgolemono which was just okay, but we had to try it and give it a shot. Something in it spice wise that I don't think belongs. I'm still dreaming about the sandwich... read more

New favorite Greek spot. Beats out all other places near by. Food was great and service was fast. It's an order window kind of place which great for on the go people or people that want to sit and enjoy their food. read more
