Niohori Restaurant

Lovely family run restaurant - we’ve dined there twice during our stay in Rhodes because we loved it so much! It’s located in a quiet, charming street, away from the busy town centre. Plenty of vegan and vegetarian options, imam aubergine and giant beans were delicious! All food is cooked fresh and there wasn’t a single thing that we didn’t like. Run by friendly, lovely family, they love what they do and do it with a smile and dedication, they’re a credit to this town!

Really nice family owned restaurant with good Greek food. We got fried peppers with garlic sauce, zucchini balls, and pita bread with olive oil and all were really tasty. As the main, we ordered grilled lamb chops and veal liver. Veal liver was overcooked to our taste which was ok however the lamb chops were unacceptable. All we got was some bones with fat and no meat at all which was quite surprising considering they own a butcher shop and I expect to be served good meat. If the liver and meat were good, this could've easily been a 5 star review. The staff was friendly.

What a beautiful restaurant. Literally off the main road. Tucked between some beautiful buildings on an idyllic marble stone road. The food was amazing here. Proper authentic Greek cuisine. Great portions. Everything was fresh. The service was impeccable and classically executed by a wonderful family that owns the place. It’s a perfect gem to start our vacation in Rhodes. The chops were the freshest I’ve had in a long time. The authentic giant beans (gigandes) were sooo tasty! Can’t go wrong here.

We had dinner here a few days ago and kept coming back, the food was just that good! The lamb in the oven and the tzatziki were absolutely delicious, some of the best we’ve ever had. But what truly makes this place special is the atmosphere and the people. The staff is so incredibly kind and welcoming, it felt like dining with a big, warm family. Words can’t describe how lovely the experience was — we’ll never forget it. Thank you for everything! ❤️

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A 7-Star Experience at the Heart of Rhodes! This place deserves Michelin Stars! If you’re ever lucky enough to wander the charming backstreets of Rhodes and stumble upon Nihori, don’t think twice — go in and prepare to be blown away. This small, family-run restaurant has been serving authentic, lovingly prepared food since the 1980s, and it shows in every bite. Grandma still runs the kitchen with her daughter and her granddaughters by her side, and it’s clear you’re being served not just food, but family tradition, history, and heart. You’ll feel like a guest at their table — warm, welcomed, and fed beyond belief. The meat is some of the freshest you’ll find anywhere, sourced directly from the butcher shop next door, run by the son-in-law — a perfect setup that guarantees every dish is built on quality ingredients. Every cut of lamb, beef, or chicken is tender, flavorful, and impeccably cooked. And for vegetarians — this place is paradise. The cheese balls are divine, with a crispy outside and soft, melting center. The meze spread is colorful, vibrant, and full of bold Mediterranean flavors that leave you wanting more with every dish. The atmosphere is unpretentious and relaxed, with the subtle feeling you’ve discovered something truly special — a secret passed through word of mouth and grateful stomachs. Thank you so much to the entire family for such an unforgettable experience — we’ll definitely be back!

This authentic restaurant serves traditional Greek dishes made with fresh, local ingredients. The atmosphere is warm and rustic, and genuine hospitality. A must-visit for anyone craving real Greek flavors

Went here by 9pm and had dinner with my 2 sisters, outside was full so it might be helpful to book in advance. Staff is nice and place offers authentic Greek cuisine. It was delicious and we highly recommend.

They were very welcoming and are proud of their cuisine and restaurant history. I love family restaurants like this. I ordered lamb chops with grilled vegetables, they brought it with salad, the lady later apologised but I would have preferred they would have let me know and given me the choice to choose something else. The meat was good, but quite fat, so not a lot to eat, which is a shame! Inviting place with a very charming host, perhaps slightly pricey for what it is.
