Nadim's Downtown

Nadim’s Mediterranean Restaurant is an absolute good eats kind of place. I had somewhat of a bad experience by trying to get in and dine there couple of years ago with my son and his mother but she convinced me to give it another shot and made reservations and trust and believe the food is on the pricy side but worth every penny. The staff was excellent and I had the opportunity to meet the owner himself Nadim really nice man and very good establishment. 👍🏽👍🏽😁

Well once again. A perfect meal. Yum!Amazing service. I liked chatting with my waitress more than my date!

I just had another business lunch at this spot just last week. Again, excellent service. This restaurant is by far my favorite in the area. You get the upscale treatment for the low end price.

The decor was as beautiful as ever. Clean and low lit environment. Very modern design. Reminds me of a swanky Manhattan lounge because of the darker decor.

The food. Yes, please. I usually get the lamb shish kebab with mediterranean rice and an extra side of Veggies. I prefer my lamb cooked medium and it's always perfect and full of flavor. The rice and veggies are seasoned and so full of flavor.

Sometimes, I bring either my 8 yr old son or 10 yr old daughter on a date night. (for one on one...

The lentil soup is so so good.

Amazing! Visited approximately 20 times. Cheese desert in rose water is delicious. Limited parking options.

I visited Nadims for dinner before a hockey game. I had a party of 4. The food and service were both amazing. Two people in our party have to eat gluten free and the restaurant was great at accommodating us. The cilantro steak and wings were excellent. Our server, Amir, was the absolute best! We will definitely be returning.

Delicious food , & great service! Don’t order the hummus appetizer, fatoosh salad starter, turkey kabobs with rice pilaf entre, or the warm rice pudding for desert… Save it for me!!

Love this restaurant.
Top notch!! A++

My family and I visited Nadim's Downtown Mediterranean Grill in downtown Springfield, MA, after catching a Springfield Thunderbirds hockey game, and it was an absolutely fantastic experience!

From the moment we arrived, the service was impeccable. Our server, Aura, was engaging, knowledgeable, and a true delight. She made us feel welcome and ensured we had everything we needed throughout the meal. We even had the pleasure of meeting the owner, Nadim, who has an excellent sense of humor and made our visit even more memorable.

The food was exceptional. The Halloumi appetizer was a crowd-pleaser, and every dish we ordered was a hit. The Beef Kabobs were perfectly tender and flavorful, and the vegetarian rice was delicious. The Pan-Seared Chicken was cooked to perfection, and the short ribs were melt-in-your-mouth amazing.

The warm and inviting...

So many vegetarian and vegan options!! The vegan options are clearly labeled on the menu, and there are so many options - I've been twice now, and would be happy to go a third time, I want to try everything! Both times, we made reservations ahead of time - table was ready when we got there, and the service was friendly. Highly recommend if your party includes vegan, vegetarians and omnivores, there's something for everyone.

Good food, I enjoyed their steak

Would recommend coming to this restaurant with a bit of pre-planning if visiting with a larger party. This restaurant is designed for small parties on the surface. However the food is very good.

Somehow this restaurant is incapable of assigning individual cheques at the same table. The maximum split they are capable of, is a 4 ways split. It does not matter if you have a party of 5 or 10, they will refuse to do any individual checks, and always force the entire table to spit the cheque 4 ways.

One of the servers acted a little rude when I challenged this policy.
I normally would have given them 1 star on principle for the rude server and strange/inconvenient policy combination; however the food was good enough for the price point to warrant a second, third, and fourth star, despite the strange policies and incident with the server.

Amani the host was amazing!! So nice and helpful even though she wasn’t our server she was very nice helpful and accommodating.

Soooooooo delicious!!!!! I wanted everything.

One of if not the best restaurant in Springfield. The food tastes like passion on a plate... Like someone’s childhood dream come true. There’s nothing but love and attention reflected in the menu, the staff, the atmosphere… every detail right down to the way a customer pays or the napkins they use was tastefully considered. We had the Hummachos, which could have been a meal on their own, as an appetizer. They were great! Pan seared chicken breast was cooked to perfection served in a delicious white wine cream sauce. She had the Mediterranean salmon and let me get one bite but wasn’t willing to share another… the bread pudding was dessert and I would highly recommend it. Our waitress was attentive even though she was obviously busy but took her time to explain the menu and fan favorites. She was spot on with her recommendations and we will be back to try the others. Nothing was missed...

I’ve seen the restaurant for a few years now and have always wanted to try it. Yesterday was the day. Coming from MGM we found a parking spot right across the street. First impressions were great. Very friendly girl who greeted us. Sat by the window which was a great spot for people watching. I ordered the Autumn Spritz I loved and my husband had a local beer. Rebecca was our server and she couldn’t have been more pleasant. We ordered a spinach pie and a lentil soup for starters. We than had a falafel plate and a beef kebab with rice pilaf. I tried the rice with beef and almonds. Everything was amazing as was the warm pita with a side of flavored oil. We loved everything about the place. We will be back for sure!

I love this food. It's delicious. I will definitely be back. I'm always in here for delivery, but never for myself. So I tried and was not disappointed.

The food was fantastic very tasty and delicious. The service was great on top of everything beginning to end. The atmosphere is very beautiful low lights and t.v. for games and news.

I eat here on regular basis for lunch. The food is good and I especially love their Kabobs. My only gripe is that the service can sometimes be a little slow. Most recently, I waited almost an hour for my food to come out. My server was super apologetic and attentive, I think the kitchen is just easily overwhelmed. So plan ahead and give yourself time to eat.

Love it .. 20+ year client

Not a single complaint or knock. Just fantastic all around.

Love the food here but have one concern. I do Airbnb stays and send my guests to Nadim's, raving about the healthy dishes they can order. One guest went early tonight and was greeted well. She was told the tables were taken but she could sit at the bar and order. It worked out well for her. A half hour later I sent a couple who were told the tables were by reservation ONLY and all were taken. Never were they told they could wait for a table or that they could order from the bar. They even called ahead prior to arriving but couldn't get through. They were spoken to very abruptly and the husband left angry. Please let your staff know, whether it is a busy Saturday night or not, treat all customers with respect and kindness. These people came from out of state to have a good experience in Springfield and this is the memory they will be leaving with. I want to continue to...

Best large group dinner experience with Z. She was the best and was so sweet. Service and food were both outstanding

Great place....My friend took me here for a birthday dinner and everything was perfect, the food was excellent, we both had a chicken dish with rice. The chocolate mousse cake was a delicious dessert and the coffee was fantastic. The waitress was friendly and professional and the restaurant was very welcoming with a nice atmosphere. They have a nice bar here and an outdoor patio for when the weather is nice. There are very good menu options so everyone will find something delicious to choose. It's not very big and reservations are recommended.

Xam was great! She was very attentive and awesome drinks! Exceptional service!! 😊🫶🏼

It starts with the owner,Nadim.He is warm,caring and and engaging. If that weren’t enough the quality of their food is wonderful. Try the lamb stew with rice. This is a special restaurant!!
