I had an amazing time here for my best friend’s bachelorette party! We had a large group and we sat out on the patio. We started with the happy hour drinks and then we sampled a variety of tasty Mediterranean items from the tasting menu. Highly recommended!

We wanted to wrap up the week with a good meal, and we found it here! I had their Greek salad and lamb chops. This meal left me wonderfully satisfied, and the service was excellent! I will definitely eat here again when I'm in Chicago next!

I LOVE this place! Whether you want to just grab tapas and drinks with your squad or host your birthday party here, Nia and her staff are the perfect team and setting. I love their food and their impeccable customer service. And the added bonus is live DJ Rod Hatcher on Friday and Saturday nights. This is hands down my favorite spot in the West Loop, from one-on-one hang-out to large group party purposes. Can’t go wrong with Nia’s!

Such a beautiful meal on a beautiful day in Chicago. Sat outside and enjoyed the happy hour 8$ freshly squeezed whiskey lemonade. Hostess was so sweet and helpful; loved our tapas, light, fresh and delicious. 10/10 recommend

Incredible spot for a nice dinner! We went for my husbands birthday with his family. Our waitress knew her stuff and was helpful with suggestions. She was also so fun!

Nia’s is such an amazing great restaurant. The food is spectacular!!! If you want a variety of different selections, this is the place you want to visit. A great cuisine, with great staff and great prices. Perfect for a dinner date or for a family gathering. I brought my girl for her birthday and she fell in love with the food and the vibe. The relaxing music will unite you and your partner even closer for such a pleasant and relaxing vibe.

So cute and delicious every time I go. The staff could not be more hospitable. Hidden gem in the west loop.

DO NOT eat here if you have food allergies! I have Celiac (no gluten) and I am allergic to dairy. After carefully reviewing the menu with our waiter and being told the shrimp was "safe," I ate a giant bite of shrimp to end up with a mouth full of butter. When I confronted the waiter, he told-me he didn't know the ingredients in-the shrimp (even though he had just told me that it was safe). He did not apologize for his mistake. The manager reprimanded me for eating something when I didn't know what it contained. Overall, very unpleasant experience.

We had a lovely time Friday night. Really enjoyed the 8 course tasting menu. Service was on point. I will have a hard time trying new places in the area now that I know this gem exists! Enjoyed every bite of the Nia salad, hummus, baked goat cheese, scallops, steak and bread pudding.
