Nostimo Greek Chicken in Arlington Heights is hands down my favorite Greek restaurant in all of Illinois. My wife and I have been on a Mediterranean and Greek food kick lately—it’s such a healthy and delicious dinner choice.
We were in the Arlington Heights area and stumbled upon this gem by chance. I couldn’t be more grateful that we did. Nostimo offers one of the most flawless dining experiences I’ve ever had. In fact, the Greek food here surpasses that of many high-end, expensive Greek restaurants that have been around for decades.
As you walk in, you’ll find a stylish, modern space where you order at the counter, then relax at your table while they bring the food to you. The setup lets you grab your own drink, which I appreciate—no waiting on servers!
I’ve already eaten here twice in one week. My go-to is the chicken kebab dinner with rice pilaf, while my wife loves the Greek chicken dinner with roasted potatoes and a side of hummus. This is the juiciest, most flavorful chicken I’ve ever had—not just from a Greek restaurant, but from any restaurant. It’s perfectly seasoned without being too salty, the rice is fluffy, and the potatoes are roasted to perfection.
