Everything from start to finish was fantastic. Entertainment was phenomenal. The food was just delicious. Our waitress, Kylesh was very attentive to our table and very pleasant. Can’t wait to come back.

This place is your typical tourist trap restaurant, just what you'd expect with lots of fried food. Prices are higher 'cause you're paying for the location. I got a simple Caesar salad with grouper, but the fish was super thin, almost like tilapia. My son's nachos had dry pulled pork and barely any cheese, mostly just chips. I debated getting a coctail since they're usually watered down, and yep, that's exactly what happened. The drinks weren't worth it. But hey, the location and entertainment were awesome – great on the water location, a guy playing guitar and singing. You just won't get a great meal here. Service was good though; our waiter was attentive and took care of us.

Food and drinks were served very quickly and everything tasted awesome. Few options for shareable drinks. Shark Attack was okay but next time we're going for the Margarite flights. The server was prompt and got us taken care of!

Our server was too important to check on us. He didn't check on us after someone else brought our food out until after half of us were done eating. I had an issue with my food but couldn't say anything because he never came back. When he finally did ask how things were, as soon as I started saying not good he appropriately said he'd go get a manager which made me relieved. She was so kind and understanding. Comped my meal and offered to make me something else (I declined as it was getting late and had to get the family home). I hate complaining and rarely do but alas, how can they improve if they don't get feedback.

Amazing restaurant. Gumbo dish was delicious, so was the Alaskan crab! We also got 3 orders of coconut shrimp. The steak was average, but that should be expected because this is a seafood place. Live music was awesome, our waitress did a great job and was very friendly.

Love this place!!! Our best friend comes into town from Ohio and this is twice we’ve been here for drinks and lunch. Joel was bartending, and was fantastic. Great service with humor and speed. Food was great. Drinks were out of this world. Music was amazing. And the scrub for your hands in the bathroom is a nice added touch. Thanks again to Joel!!

We are local… so why have we waited so long to come here is a mystery. Loved the waterfront dining. Food was fresh and delicious. Live music was perfect- not too loud. Highly recommend!!

I ordered the Gatorade bites and really like them for the app. I then ordered a pain killer!!! To eat it ordered the grilled cheese lobster sandwich with onion rings. The wife got ribs. All was very delicious. I even forgot to take more pictures. I would recommend coming here. Daniel was a great server!

Nellie’s has a great atmosphere, especially with its waterfront setting, which really adds to the overall ambiance. We came for lunch and left somewhat satisfied, but also a bit disappointed. We ordered the crab cake sandwich and the blackened haddock sandwich, both with coconut onion rings. The outdoor patio had quite a few birds around, but we didn’t mind, and the staff were actively trying to keep them away. The service itself was very good. Our server was attentive, friendly, and checked in on us regularly. The prices were on the higher side, and there were no lunch specials, though that was expected given the area and waterfront location. Unfortunately, the food was the biggest letdown. The coconut onion rings arrived lukewarm and hard, with the onion inside almost raw. The dipping sauce tasted like a bottled sweet and sour sauce rather than something freshly made. My blackened haddock was very overcooked, and the seasoning was inconsistent. Some parts were bland, while other bites were overly salty and heavily seasoned. The onion also was old and mushy. After the meal, my friend also felt extremely bloated and unwell. Overall, Nellie’s delivers on atmosphere and service, but the food did not meet our expectations for lunch.

We had a party of 7 and they were able to accommodate us very quickly. We enjoyed our food and the service was great. The portions were huge, none of us could even eat half of our meals.
