Nikos, named for the owner's father, is set within a restored red-brick tobacco storage warehouse dating to the early 1900s. The interior plays up that rustic industrial heritage and blends it with a simple sophistication, sharing a modern tavern appeal. As for the food, expect all of the Greek and Mediterranean classics, including spanakopita and octopus carpaccio to begin... More info

I had a reservation that showed I had celiac disease for my partner's birthday. I clarified with my server that it should be treated like a gluten allergy. Dude brought our $11 vegetable platter nestled in pita bread (which I explicitly did not order). We chose this place because their online menu said that all the bread/pita was gluten free. A girl can dream. however, the in-person menu clarified it was not. Highly recommend avoiding if you have an allergy or a food restriction. The actual food was meh. Not what I would consider Michelin-rated or whatever nonsense they advertised. It's probably fine to grab some small plates and a glass of wine, but it didn't knock it out of the park for me. The server not understanding/respecting a food allergy just ruined the experience for me completely. Price per person: $70–80

Hi Eileen,I’m very sorry that we missed the mark during your visit, especially while you were celebrating your partner’s birthday. You took the time to note your celiac disease on the reservation and to clarify it with your server, and we should have handled your meal with the appropriate level of care. We also appreciate you bringing the discrepancy on our online menu to our attention. We have addressed that issue and have spoken with our team about the importance of clearly communicating and properly handling allergy and dietary restrictions.Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. I sincerely apologize that we did not provide the level of care or hospitality you should have received during your visit.Josh JonesGeneral Manager

We had a wonderful evening at Nikos with our friends, sitting outside and enjoying the beautiful weather. The food was good, and the ambiance really made us feel like we were in Greece. It was a lovely setting for a relaxed dinner. That said, the service was a bit disappointing. The outdoor seating area was not busy, and there was one waitress taking care of the outdoor tables, but the service still felt inattentive. Our wine was not refilled, and neither was our water. At one point, our dirty, empty plates were still on the table when our entrees arrived, leaving no room for the waitress bringing out the food to put the dishes down. She had to place the food on another table, clear our plates, and then bring us a new set of silverware. We really enjoyed the food, atmosphere, and spending time with our friends, but I was expecting a more attentive level of service, especially given that the outdoor area was not busy. Overall, a nice experience, but the service could definitely be improved. Food: 4 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 5 Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $60–70
$$$$ Price range per person $30-$90
