Nisi

About Us

A Place to Gather, Share, and Savor. “Nisi” means island in Greek, a small place that invites you to slow down, connect, and enjoy life’s simple pleasures — and that feeling is at the heart of everything we do. Inspired by the culinary traditions of Greece, Nisi is an authentic Greek kitchen and bar rooted in hospitality. Our menu celebrates classic flavors and time-honored recipes, prepared with fresh, seasonal ingredients and designed to be shared. From hand-rolled Dolmas and crispy Saganaki to savory Souvlaki, vibrant Horiatiki salad, and traditional desserts, every dish reflects the regions, ingredients, and rhythms of Greek cooking. Our cocktails feature Mediterranean ingredients like Mastiha, olive oil, and Greek yogurt, crafted to be enjoyed slowly, in good company. Located in downtown Portsmouth, NH, Nisi offers a welcoming space for casual meals, celebrations, or lingering over drinks. Our hope is simple: that you leave feeling connected — to the food, the people around you, and the spirit of the islands. Limited reservations available by phone; walk-ins welcome.
