"Went for a meal with my wife to celebrate her Birthday. Nice variety and great service. We shared a seafood platter for starters . Food was presented and looked and tasted great. We didn't have a booking and were made feel very welcome.Menu had a Mediteranian and Turkish feel . Would visit again."

"Basically Italian restaurant. Quality was very good and service as well. They were very polite. Perhaps a bit slow. Dessert was delicious!!"

"I had the aubergine salad for starter and it was incredible. I'm not exaggerating when I say I will remember it and talk about it forever. I went to this restaurant after seeing it in a local guide book and was not disappointed. I went on my last night in Cork, only wish I had gone sooner. The server was by himself but he did a great job, being attentive to..." Read more

"In the last two years Ireland has discovered international cuisine in a big way. Ok, I know I have a bit of a weakness for Turkish food but this place does it as good as any. They call it a Mediterranean Restaurant so it has a beautiful bruscetta and fried calamari but this is a seriously good EASTERN Mediterranean restaurant. And it is very good value.J..." Read more

"On a recent business trip to Cork, I was looking for a restaurant with a patio on a warm evening. Nosta offered that, and very good food too. I ordered the meze platter based on other reviews here, and was not disappointed. And for mains I ordered the Spicy Tavuk to try it for the first time. The sauce was very tasty, although the chicken could have been a l..." Read more

"I was here for dinner last week with 15 work colleagues and we had a brilliant time. The staff were friendly, helpful, efficient and just lovely. The food was fab too. From mezze to lamb and chicken, we had no complaints. It put us all in a great mood for the rest of the evening out. The restaurant is clean and well laid out with plenty of room for big group..."

"My family and I visited Nostalgia earlier this month. The decor was very nice and staff were nice though not attentive. The food, is where it starts going down hill. I had the steak and I'm telling you it was the size of an 8 year old's hand. The smallest toughest piece of meat anywhere in Cork. For 13.95 you get sad piece of meat and half a plate of small o..."

"Very nice and affordable place to enjoy Mediterranean food with your family and/or friends but I hope you will never stumble upon one of their waiters who is very unwelcoming and cranky. This was the fifth time I popped in and the second time this guy dealt with us and each and every time it has been the same with him. Words such as warm welcome, smi..." Read more

"Propre, cuisine raffinée mais pas gastro, proposant des menus raisonnable, convient pour des dîners d'affaire mais aussi entre amis, ambiance calme, serveur très souriant, du choix dans les plats, ça sent bon les épices dans les assiettes, c'est du voyage pour les papilles! Bref, du soleil!
Recommande!"

"Our first visit to this relatively new restaurant in Cork, on a Saturday evening, was pre-booked. The restaurant was moderately busy, including the on-street section. The staff were very friendly and sociable, coming from different parts of the Mediterranean. The menu is largely Turkish, with some Greek and Italian interest included. All the food is sourced..."

"Been here many a time and I think it deserves a review. Large-ish restaurant with plenty of seating, but the lighting is a bit too much, anyway -the food! They have an excellent menu to choose from, Turkish, Italian etc I got the lamacun to start with - Its amazing and worth a try. I then got the seafood pasta and I can't say a bad thing about the food in th..." Read more

"Polite, professional staff, the lamb skewers were very tasty and quite generous portions. Nice and open restaurant too, you're not sitting on top of the people beside you. A definite recommendation for any one looking for good food at reasonable prices."

"One of the nicest restaurants I've found in Cork. The service here is always courteous, if not the quickest, and the food is just divine. I'd recommend the sucuklu [sic], which is a pepperoni pizza on Turkish flat bread and is nicer than anything you'd get in a designated pizzeria. The only minus point is the price of the food, which is a steep €21. I..." Read more
