"From the people behind Nerai, a Midtown Greek restaurant, Nerina is a Greek spot in Greenpoint that opens on January 29. They’ve got a few dips with fresh pita bread as well as house-made sourdough with honey; playful-sounding dishes like oysters with ouzo mignonette, and dishes like shrimp saganaki, and rack of baby lamb.

Nerina is Greenpoint’s newest Greek restaurant on Commercial Street. They use fresh and seasonal ingredients to make traditional mezze-style Greek dishes with vibrant Mediterranean flavors. Nerina’s delicious menu features lots of variety with an all Greek wine list. Definitely need to try the hummus with house made pita bread, scallops, and octopus. The duck leg stiffado burst with flavors out of this world. Finally, add a rack of lamb to share to pair perfectly with Greek wine. Last but not least, try their saragli which is a rolled baklava and the chocolate mousse. Easily the best around town! Stop by and check out Nerina!

I fell in love with this restaurant the minute I set foot in the door. The space is so warm and inviting and the service felt so welcoming and also like they'd been open for years despite it actually being opening week. My friends and I started with house made pita and dips which were delicious and the Tuna Tartare and Greek Salad, which hit the spot. Got the Lobster Orzotto which I dreamt about after, it was an absolutely perfect dish, which I'll 100% come back for. The honey roasted carrots were a perfect side and for dessert we had their house made bougatsa (made with semolina custard, phyllo, cinnamon and sugar) which could feed a party of 5 easily - It was the perfect end to a perfect meal.

Love this place! I hope that you keep up the good work. Top notch quality food and service. I am excited to have this Mediterranean gem so close to my home now. Can’t wait for outdoor space to open- I will be a regular there:)

Nerina is a gem! We started with the crudo and oysters which were fresh and delicious. The octopus was 10/10- will definitely return for this dish. Cocktails and mocktails are so good- the thyme and bourbon complemented the lamp chops perfectly- some of the best I have had in NYC. Marios was our server and he was so cool and attentive. It’s gorgeous and comfortable space, didn’t feel like an opening even though it’s their first week. Will be back!

Ecstatic about this new addition to the Greenpoint waterfront. We went on Nerina’s second day and were really impressed. The space is absolutely beautiful, the staff extraordinarily friendly and the menu is perfect. As a first generation Greek, Nerina takes all the classics and elevates them without distorting all the familiar tastes and memories. My wife and I spend all year waiting to visit my family home in Greece, but now Nerina made that wait a little easier.

Amazing food and ambience. Happy for a new gastronomic addition in our neighborhood. Service was flawless from the start to finish. Welcoming hostess and knowledgeable waiter Petros who had some great suggestions what to pick from the menu- it was a though decision! I look forward coming back again soon!

This place was spectacular. The entire staff made me feel so welcome. During my visit my table was served by Petro - he was so mindful and friendly. I really loved the Pita - it is made in house and so delicious. I loved everything we ordered - scallops, gnocchi, lamb and more!! I would deff recommend this spot to groups and couples. I went with a group of friends for a girl's night and we had some cocktails - mocktails for me! It was a great time and the menu offers something for everyone.
