Having just moved to Greenwich our first night out was spent at Nessa. Having lived in London, Long Island and New York I must say Nessa will be added to our list of favorite local dining spots.Fresh pasta and an eclectic menue make Nessa a resturant you should not miss.Our waiter Criss was great,very helpful and a pleasure to converse with. Give Nessa a try.

Hadn't been here for years, was surprisingly not crowded (but was late August vacation time). Everyone enjoyed their food and remarked well above the norm. Appetizers were great for sharing. Service was friendly and efficient, Décor is on the hip but comfortable side.

This is our favorite special occasion restaurant - we've never been disappointed. The food is always a joy, the syrah we chose was spectacular, my mojito was to die for ... and they even put a sparkler in my son's dessert and sang happy birthday. Couldn't have been happier!

After not having been to Nessa in a while, I was disappointed that the quality of the food was not as good as I had remembered. None of the dishes were memorable and the bruschetta have gotten really small and not as tasty.

I liked the idea of getting half portions for half the price, but by the time the entree was brought to the table I wasn't even hungry any more. Is it really necessary to cook linguine from the start for every one that orders it? And I did find the portions a bit small. One piece of bread covered with cheese is a portion? At lease my husband's crab cakes had two of them.AND It was much too noisy to enjoy the meal or the company. I would not recommend or go back!

Delicious dinner at Nessa! The arugula salad was really fresh, very tasty. The pear salad very good as well. The bolognese pasta, a house favorite..excellent!! The skirt steak was delicious, seasoned nicely, had a little bit of a light au jus with it to make the mashed potatoes more interesting. if you want a light dish, the monkfish was nice. Generous portions!! Saving yourself for dessert is a MUST! BUT, PAY YOUR CHECK AND GO NEXT DOOR TO ZEPOLE ME, owned by Mark from Nessa, and business partner, Robert. The classic/ modern zepoles, dipping sauces NOT TO BE MISSED!!!! They are fresh and melt in your mouth delish! Enjoy their sandwich/ salad menu for lunch or dinner. Bring the kids! Highly recommend Nessa/Zepole for your next dining!

Nessa was recommended by a friend who frequented the Greenwich area. We made the 60 mile trip and were not disappointed. Unique and vibrant decor, helpful and courteous staff, and most importantly wonderful food describes this neighborhood eatery. From the basil pesto bruschetta to grandma's eggplant siciliano to the espresso mousse, Nessa's recipes excited the palate. A joy to visit and well worth the drive.
