5 stars all around.
Great food (lobster pasta, lamb chops, lavraki, appetizers, dessert), drinks and service. Good for groups as the noise level doesn't get very high. Very friendly and helpful service. Highly recommended.

This is an amazing restaurant for a luxury, high end atmosphere with good food. Their menu is delicious and offers good portions for the quality of the restaurant. The service is also very polite and attentive. I would definitely recommend coming here for a special occasion!

Food - the seafood was excellent! Scallops and octopus were both cooked perfectly. Definitely get the dessert platter if you're coming with a large group as well. Dinks - had a lot of variety and were great fun. The smoked banana was tropical without being overly sweet. Service - is great. Our host was friendly, knew the menu well, and made it a lovely time. Ambiance - I'd say the main dining room was a little dark, but didn't detract from the overall experience.
Be the first to ReplyCame here on Valentines Day for their 4 course prefix menu.
Between my girlfriend and I we got Black Bass Crudo, Warm King Crab, Squid Ink Pasta with Lobster, Scallops in Paprika Sauce, 28 Day Dry Aged Steak, Starwberry Mousse Cake and Chocolate Crepe Cake. The menu was $140/pp. The venue was decorated beautifully with rose petals and candles everywhere. We were seated right away and brought to the second floor. The waiter was fantastic. He had a smile on his face the whole time and helped make the night special. The black bass crudo was the best course. The fish tasted great and there was great acidity with the sauce. The lobster pasta was good. I thought the lobster may have been a tad overcooked but the pasta and sauce was delicious. The warm king crab salad was served with a blood orange sauce. If you love crab this was a great course. The scallops were cooked perfectly but I was not a fan of the paprika sauce. The sauce overpowered the scallops so we tried to remove some sauce from each bite. The steak was good as well. Overall for the special occasion I thought they did a great job. I don't know if I would come rushing back but I thoroughly enjoyed the evening.
Be the first to ReplyMy boyfriend made a reservation for Valentine's Day.
They had a prefix menu for $140/person for 4 courses. Each course had two options. The menu was heavily fish based with only one meat option in the 3rd course. They decorated beautifully with lots of lights, candles and rose petals on the steps leading up to the 2nd floor and on the tables. Our server was fantastic; very warm and genuinely wanting to make sure we had a great experience. He gave each female a rose at the end of the meal and a small box of treats to bring home! I loved the sea bass app, the lobster pasta dish and the strawberry mouse dessert. The scallop dish was good but I didn't care for the paprika sauce they were served in. The chocolate crepe for dessert was pretty average, not something I'd order again. We opted not to get any drinks (glasses of wine were pricey; more than $20 each) but they did have a som on site. Overall, lovely experience. Some of the dishes were better than others but I thought it was a good deal based on the price and the quality of the food. I'm not sure if I would come running back for their regular menu but they did a nice job for this occasion. This is definitely a spot for a special occasion dinner!

Get the zucchini chips as they were the best I have ever had - zero grease! The spicey hummus was so good. We had the salmon and it was cooked to perfection. The baklava was also really good. Prices are worth it. I can't wait to return.
Be the first to ReplyNothing life changing.
Classy joint. Lots of suits. Everything was solid but too expensive. I'll probably continue to make this same complaint about every restaurant in Midtown til I learn to stop going back hehe. Good service!

Very good greek food with a sophisticated ambiance and upscale attitude, but food wasn't anything too exceptional.
Be the first to ReplyI visited Nerai as part of a group corporate event.
I should start by saying that I LOVE Greek and mediterranean food. Beginning with the positives, the interior is gorgeous, especially on the top floor where they have vines and leaves snaking around the walls and ceilings. I also appreciate how nice the bathrooms were. The service was efficient. Our table shared appetizers and each got our own entree. I ordered the lobster, squid ink pasta (sucker for pasta). The flavor of the sauce and noodles was mellow, and it tasted almost sweet and nutty. I was expecting something more tomato-y, so this dish didn't exactly do it for me. My boyfriend got the leftovers, which he really enjoyed so it's the right dish for the right person. I did enjoy the lobster, however. In terms of the negatives, my biggest gripe is definitely value. I thought that the appetizers were overpriced and not terribly impressive. I would only somewhat recommend this restaurant for corporate events, where you are not responsible for the check at the very end.

Nerai has exceeded my expectations! Mr Aron (the Chef) puts so much soul into his cooking, it's incredible. Every single dish was exquisite. Quality ingredients, beautiful presentation, well thought combinations. VERY good food! Needed quite a few dishes to go today, as catering. Vladislav was extremely helpful and welcoming. Thank you, we're happily returning, with a lot more orders and a lot more people:) Cristina
Be the first to ReplyGreat service and food.
I ordered grilled octopus appetizer which had many different flavors on one plate. Octopus was cooked just right too. I then ordered a side cream rice spinach dish which I taste hint of lemon. Ambiance was also nice. I enjoyed it very much.
Be the first to ReplyIt's a beautiful place and well-decorated.
The staff was very attentive. However, it was very expensive for what was offered and the food was not authentic Greek. I realize it's an upscale spin and they accomplish that with some dishes, like the fried zucchini, but some of the dishes are Greekish at best. I agree with a previous review that one unisex bathroom is a bad idea. Our table spent quite a bit of time waiting in line, although they did keep the bathroom impeccably clean. Overall nice place, clean, with great staff and good food, but I found it to be expensive for what was offered.
Be the first to ReplyHad a lovely experience here with the hubby while visiting
Had a lovely experience here with the hubby while visiting from upstate. The young barmaid with the dark hair recommended the pecan old fashioned and the katafi shrimp. Both recommendations were excellent! The atmosphere was welcoming and a friendly reception as we entered and left. They took our coats right away. I can't wait to return when we're back in the city!
Be the first to ReplyIf 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.
Be the first to ReplyWe came here for a working lunch with our client.
She suggested this place. I have to say how beautiful the decor is. The food was very good especially the appetizers. We got the octopus and the appetizer trio with pita bread. The service was also wonderful. Very attentive and nice. I will definitely come back for dinner.
Be the first to ReplyGreat Greek restaurant.
Food and service were fantastic. My wife and so had a very nice late lunch here. Not crazy priced.
Be the first to ReplyGreat service.
I made a last minute reservation and by mistake made it for 2 but they accommodated us for a table of 4 without any problem. Very good food, we had the black spaghetti with lobster, veal and pasta and some desserts. Very pricey a meal for 4 but it was worth it.
Be the first to ReplyEpic last restaurant meal of 2022! We lucked out with
Epic last restaurant meal of 2022! We lucked out with weather and were able to eat in the beautiful private outdoor cabanas despite the heaters not working at the moment. The restaurant doesn't typically serve outdoors while the heaters were out of service but was able to accommodate our needs so A+ for that. Our cabana was super comfy and you can either spread out and social distance or fit a whole group in one. Felt like we were at a beach resort on the sea instead of in the middle of Manhattan. Our server Mandheer was fantastic and made great recommendations. We started with the tuna tartare and grilled langoustine special, followed by the famous lobster pasta and lamb chops. Everything was absolutely phenomenal, with the langoustines and lamb chops serving as the standout dishes. We were stuffed but couldn't pass up dessert, so ordered a slice of orange cake, which was also delicious. The restaurant also brought out a complimentary slice of fig cake with a candle for my friend's birthday. Overall, it was pricey but worth every penny. Great place to celebrate a special occasion, even if the occasion is just a desire to eat consistently amazing food.Wheelchair access details: there are two steps to get into the restaurant, but they have an accessible side door. A hostess saw me roll up and came out right away to help. The outdoor cabanas are flat and there is plenty of space to transfer to the bench and good pillows for back support. You can also pull up to the table from the street side and stay in your own chair but that part of the booth would probably not be as warm when the heater is on. Not sure about restroom as I didn't go indoors.

The beautiful interior environment sets the tone for an amazing dining experience with excellent Greek food and great service!Main courses:Lavraki ($42) - super tender and flavorful, with the skin slightly crispy; also expertly deboned, which was very nicePastitsada ($36) - pasta had super tender braised short ribs and perfectly cooked paccheri pasta to be just the right amount of slight chewinessDesserts:Saragli ($15) - top notch baklava with pistachio gelato and tahini parfaitSokolatina ($16) - milk chocolate mousse was the perfect mousse consistency/richness and even had a gold flake on topDrink:Fall Frenzy Cocktail ($20) - fruity with a tiny bit of viscosity from the blackberry puree, which I likedAll of this to say that the food was all great and well-presented. Even the complimentary bread to start was great and unique, as it was more of bread crisps rather than ordinary bread, and was nicely seasoned with some yogurt balls and olive oil.They even gave us a free fig cake for dessert to help us celebrate our anniversary, which was super nice and generous of them. The cake was also tasty, soft, and not overly sweet.On that note, the service was super friendly, from the hostess to the sommelier to the wait staff. They were also attentive and made sure we were enjoying our time.Lastly, the environment itself was just so beautiful with elegant, tasteful decor throughout. This included some nice tree branches/artwork along the walls and additional holiday season decor with holiday lights, wreaths, etc. Both the upstairs and ground level floors are super nice. There is also a different flower on each table. The noise level was very comfortable. This is definitely more of a classy, upscale, white tablecloth kind of restaurant, so as expected, the prices are a bit elevated. However, for all the reasons stated above, I think the cost is very much worth it for this overall incredible dining experience. Whether you are celebrating a special event/milestone or simply looking for a top notch dinner, Nerai is one of the best restaurants in NYC to visit. You won't regret it!

Solid service. Always a wonderful meal. Squid ink past and lamb chops were both great
Be the first to ReplyCelebrated my birthday here.
Fabulous dinner- atmosphere was so nice but more importantly the food was incredible. My husband and I are foodies and often scrutinize dishes and how they are made. - all was delightful. Octopus and crudo were so different and unique. I loved the grilled fish as it was amazing and cooked well and my husband totally enjoyed the lobster with ink pasta. Service was also great. Definitely recommend.
Be the first to ReplyEverything was just perfect.
We had a wonderful lunch at Nerai on our last day in NYC. The food was amazing, all the dishes were so delicious. Their cocktails were also top of the notch. What's even better was the service we received from our waitress Viola. It was just her first week in the restaurant but she did a fabulous job to make our lunch an unforgettable experience. We will come back again and recommend Nerai and Viola to everyone!
Be the first to ReplyLove coming to Nerai and having a delicious meal.
ย The staff is very nice and friendly. ย The food is fresh and always on Point. ย My CEO loves hosting business lunches at Nerai, as their service and food is fantastic.
Be the first to ReplyThe food was disappointing.
The service wasn't good. They charge $6 for a Diet Coke in the smallest glass ever and bring refills without informing you that refills are not free. Spending $40 on Diet Coke is ridiculous.
Be the first to ReplyI had made reservations around the corner at another
I had made reservations around the corner at another restaurant, but upon my arrival their doors were locked and I discovered that my reservation had been canceled several hours earlier. Thank god for Nerai, the lovely staff here saved my business meeting. My colleague and I were seated without a reservation and they were very gracious allowing us to place the last order before they closed their kitchen for the afternoon right at 2:30pm.I just wanted to say thank you to the host and to the staff who stayed an extra 30/45 minutes to make up for the mistake made by the "competing" restaurant around the corner. The food was delicious, the wine was excellent, and the service was unparalleled. I will be coming back with a reservation and well within normal business hours, but I didn't want this to go unrecognized. THANK YOU!
