"We stumbled upon this place by chance and did not regret it. The menu is excellent and the staff are very friendly. We had the bread and dips to start, I had grilled lamb for main and my gf had the grilled chicken and it was so tasty. I would highly recommend this place. Food is delicious, cheap, atmosphere is nice and the wine is lovely!"

"This place doesn't look anything out of the ordinary but when you step inside you will be in for a treat. The service is good and food excellent. Very different food and an explosion of taste from eastern Europe/Mediteranian. You can see food being prepared and it is nice and warm inside and very clean. My mum would be a fussy old style eater but she loved t..." Read more

"Came upon this resaurant by chance recently during our first time in Cork. Tables outside looked inviting, so we had late lunch here. Excellent menu choice. Both of our dishes were very good - the lasagne and the char grilled salmon. OK, 'ordinary' dishes, but made something special with the herbs and sauces. Reasonable prices of around 10 euros. Efficient s..." Read more

"I had dinner here last night with my boyfriend and we both really enjoyed it. The restaurant had a great laid back atmosphere!! we got a fab table for two where we were easily able to chat away as we werent sat too close to anyone and the backround music wasnt too loud. The menu has a fantastic selection to suit us both as my partner wouldn't be too adve..." Read more

"We had dinner here last saturday, 2 adults and 2 children. The staff were really friendly, sat us up by the kitchen which was great, as the children spent their time talking to the man that made the pizzas and watching him. We had a meze and a main course each, very nice indeed. We will return."

"We were one of just three tables on a very cold and windy night so the large restaurant wasn't as lively as it might be on busy weekend. None the less our waiting staff were friendly and the food was tasty. They do a mix of Mediterranean food - pasta, grill, pizza (in their own forne which warmed the place up a little). The mezze starter was delicious. And y..." Read more

"Service a little slow perhaps. Nice food based around chicken and lamb mainly. Relatively new - worth a try."

"Nosta is somewhat unique in that it's one of the few places in Cork city centre that offers decent Meze dishes. The Meze platter for 2, while a bit expensive at €12, has a nice selection of Hummus, Tzatziki, Esme and Aubergine served with flatbread, and is quite filling for a starter (although you may need to ask for more flatbread to finish off the m..."

The menu offers a great variety of dishes, including pizza and pasta, to satisfy everybody's tastes! I went for the mezze plate for 2 with bread, very good! and the shank of lamb cooked with aubergines for main co..." Read more

"C'est un très bon restaurant je le recommande pour ceux qui hésitent à y aller! Le cadre intérieur est très agréable des lumières un peu tamisées et une vue sur la cuisine et ce qui s'y prépare c'est toujours rassurant! Avec mes amis nous y sommes venu à deux reprises et à chaque fois le repas était..." Read more

"We were made very welcome by the friendly waiter who looked after us well throughout our meal. The lamb and chicken kebabs with rice and salad were tasty and nicely presented with very generous helpings - luckily we had not ordered a starter! The coffee was good too.This restaurant is unpretentious, serving a range of mediterranean food with an emphasis..." Read more

"Been here twice in the last couple of weeks and ate the lamb skewer and chargrilled chicken which were both really good. The wood-fired oven looks great at the back of the open kitchen and makes a huge difference to the taste of the food. Both dishes were unlike anything I had tasted in Cork before and the Turkish bread is another highlight. Service is very..." Read more

"Eat in nosta after seeing it recommended on boards.ie.We ordered the tazatzki to share and were very disappointed. It just tasted like Philadelphia cheese with a little herb through it. If there was garlic you couldn't taste it over the overpowering Philadelphia.I got the mixed grill for main and it was lovely!! Would highly recommend it...." Read more

"Heard about Nosta from a friend of mine and decided to give it a go. Our waiter was very courteous and helpful with menu information. The menu was varied and non repetitive with the choices, which is great to see as some restaurants have taken to flooding the menu with options which in my opinion lowers the quality of the meal.I had the Brusc..."

"I've come here now a few times, I saw it advertised on a free local newspaper. Myself and my boyfriend got a few mixed starters & their mixed grill plate. We finished every last bit of it we even got ice cream at the end. I'd recommend getting anything with lamb and the rice that they do is really different. The meal came to under €30 and it was g..."

"Pur hasard que ce passage dans ce restaurant, il pleuvait et nous souhaitions manger. Nous étions juste à coté et de l'extérieur cela semblait être une pizzeria. A l'intérieur, c'est plutôt à connotation turc. Bon accueil, belle salle à la décoration classique, l'ensemble est bien tenu. Le choix des plats en..." Read more

"We were on a tour of Cork and wanted to get lunch at a sit down restaurant and found this little gem. The atmosphere was fantastic, the kitchen is totally open which was nice to watch them prepare meals. I ordered their Greek salad and they did not skimp on feta at all and the garlic bread was amazing."
