    Very nice restaurant with very tasty food and good atmosphere. We had pizza for all of us for an appetizer and pasta and salads for our main dishes. Everybody enjoyed the food and we will be eating there again in couple days.

    The pizza was almost inedible. Dry and tasteless. The restaurant management tolerated drunk people being loud and obnoxious on video calls necessitating two other tables to be relocated away from them. Do no recommend. The evening before we walked about a block or two to a pub with great food not run by Hilton.

    Great chicken parm and spaghetti dishes. Lava flow drink was delicious! Our server was a delight and personable. Dish prices were a little high for what we ate. Thank you for a wonderful experience though

    Ate here twice, pizza was very good. Pasta pretty ordinary. Portions are huge, but pricey for what you get. Staff was very good- top notch service and very friendly.

    Another great experience at Nui. lovely setting, sunset view. We enjoyed the Diavola pizza paired with excellent wines. Our server Helen made our evening extra special by remembering us from the last time that we were here and making us feel at home. And of course, all of this coupled with great service being there whenever we needed her we will be back

    The seating area felt more like a cafeteria, but the food was fantastic! We had chicken parmesan and bolognese. The sauces for each were amazing! The pasta in the bolognese was terrific! Staff was amazing too! Thank you for a wonderful meal!
