Nostimo Greek Grill Bali: My Favourite Bali Greek Restaurant. Kali Orexi!

June 24, 2018

Nostimo Greek Restaurant Seminyak_ Chicken Souvlaki Platter

Wanna get your Greek on? Have I got the place for you! Kali Orexi means ‘good appetite’ in Greek and that’s exactly what you need to bring to Nostimo Greek Grill Bali. Nostimo Bali is my favourite Bali Greek Restaurant (yes there are a few!) and I just know you are going to love it too. If you can’t tell your Skordalia from your Souvlaki, come with me as I unravel the mysteries of Greek food at this fabulous Greek restaurant in Seminyak Bali …




 

A Lifetime Obsession With Greek Food

I love Greek food. It was inevitable really. During my formative years I lived in an inner city Sydney suburb with a large Greek population. I have vivid childhood memories of lazy afternoons spent at friends’ houses melting under the blistering Australian sun while sampling tasty morsels lovingly made by black-clad yiayias and served on platters which heaved under the weight of then foreign delicacies like Dolmades, Spanakopita and of course Souvlaki. Coming from English parents whose culinary skills were limited to meat and three very overcooked veg, food in my house was consumed for sustenance not pleasure. Eating at my friends houses’ was an awakening. My fan-girl devotion was cemented by four trips to Greece where I spent balmy evenings in rustic tavernas gorging on the local specialties late into the night. On my return, many an hour was spent in my kitchen perfecting my Portokalopita, Saganaki and Keftedes until I nailed them.  My predilection to Hellenic cuisine has fostered an innate ability to instinctively seek out Greek restaurants in all corners of the globe. I’ve previously shared the Greek feasts I devoured at Mix Restaurant in Hoi An Vitenam and Al Camino in Whitinaga New Zealand and now it’s Bali’s turn. Hold onto your hats folks cos this one might just be the best yet.

 

 

Nostimo Greek Grill Bali Overview

I love love love Nostimo Greek Grill Bali. I have been to Bali 10+ times and as soon as I book my tickets I find myself looking forward to dining at my favourite Bali Greek restaurant again. Nostimo Bali has two locations and while I have seen the Ubud restaurant whizz past a taxi window, I have only dined at Seminyak. Nostimo Bali in Seminyak is located on Jl Raya Petitenget about a 10 min scooter ride from the heart of Seminyak. If you haven’t rented a scooter in Bali it will only be a couple of bucks in a metered taxi (always use Bluebird!). The decor is typical rustic Greek with whitewashed tables and lots of blue. If you dine after dark, the overhead fairy lights add a lovely touch. The service at Nostimo Greek restaurant Bali was exceptional every time we dined. After our first visit, the staff recognised us and greeted us even more fondly which was sweet.

What We Ate At My Favourite Greek Restaurant Seminyak

The menu at Nostimo Bali is tight and includes a selection of traditional Greek fare. As you would expect, lamb features heavily, but because this is Bali it comes with a premium price tag. Almost double that of the equivalent chicken dish. I was surprised (and just a little disappointed) not to see any Spanikopita or Dolmades on the menu which are usually my go to starters. We opted for the Spicy Feta Dip which proved a fine substitute. Being a massive feta fan (isn’t it just the best cheese ever?), I appreciated the unique flavour combination but it was a little too salty for The Hubs’ liking. The serving was substantial and way too much for us to finish without spoiling our appetite, especially when combined with the complimentary bread and oil. Try sharing between four.

Souvlaki is always a favourite and Nostimo Greek Grill Bali offers both wraps and platters. The Hubs and I always go for the platters. The Hubs is partial to the Chicken Souvlaki Platter (IDR750k). He has ordered it every single visit. The three skewers of perfectly seasoned chicken are always deliciously charred and oh-so-tender. Also a creature of habit, I always order the Soutzoukaki Platter (IDR850k). Nostimo’s signature lamb kofte balls are superb. Wrap bite size chunks in the light, fluffy pita and slather them in Tzatziki to enjoy them like I do. I can never get enough of the yoghurty goodness of Tzatziki and always steal The Hubs’ when mine is empty. The rosemary-flecked, hand-cut chips which accompany most meals are sensational. This is simple food done well that I could eat every day. Did I mention that you can wash your meal down with a glass of Australian Sauv Blanc for only IDR700k?

On our most recent visit to Bali we brought along a bunch of friends. It goes without saying that we took our party of 11 to Nostimo Greek Grill Bali for our first group dinner. Thereafter, getting 11 people to agree on just one restuarnt for the night is like herding cats. So what do you do when everyone wants something different? Well in Bali you Go Jek it. Nostimo Greek Grill Bali is listed on the popular app and we ordered in twice during our stay at The Club Villas Seminyak. Sure it costs a little more but it’s well worth it for the convenience.

    Greek food is always good. Always have a gyros craving now and then and it needs that perfect tsaziki sauce. Hope you still got to enjoy other cuisines in Bali, some hotels have incredible chefs!

    I love Greek food and specially in Greek styled rustic taverns. Nostimo in Bali has perfect Greek ambiance and dishes looks perfect. Hopefully I would get all my vegetarian stuff here as Greek cuisine is loaded with lot of veggies. I will also download this app when In Bali as it looks quite easy and helpful.

    I actually don’t like Greek food. When I was in Greece I tried a couple thing but I am just not a fan. But it does looks delicious!
    Maybe I should give it another try at Nostimo Greek Grill when I ever visit Bali 🙂

    One of the things I think most of us love about traveling abroad is the exposure to different and exciting cuisine and the delicious flavors that go with that. Normally you tend to focus on the local cuisine delicacies and flavors but you make a great point that you can still enjoy fabulous food of a completely different nationality to the country you are visiting. In this case, enjoying Greek food in Bali may not be the first thing that comes to mind – but reading your account makes me sure want to give it a go!

    In all the times I have been to Bali, I have never noticed any Greek restaurants and now you’re telling me there are a few?? LOL! And I am always on Petitenget! Maybe I’m too busy shopping. But no dolmades on the menu? I’d be dissapointed too. My absolutely favourite Greek dish is Saganaki and a good old fashion moussaka!

    Wow! I didn’t know Bali has Greek food restaurants as well. I’ve never tried Greek food yet. But it looks and sounds super delicious. I wish I knew about Nostimo Greek Grill when I visited Bali. We tried Balinese food and I did find a couple of Indian restaurants as well. Great to know there are the ones offering Greek food.
