Outstanding - I honestly don't know how nel. flies under the radar. Delicious food, presented cleverly with wonderful service - highly recommended.
Sexy little basement. Wood, warm brown tones, soft lighting. I have eaten here 3 times and each time the menu was completely different. I'm definitely due back soon, Nelly! x
Had an amazing evening here enjoying the Christmas degustation menu and matching wines. My favourites surprised me a little... being the melon pops, Santas cookies and milk and mince pies - they were just so original and tasted so delicious. Festive bird and Christmas dinner really felt like a European Christmas in Oz.
Had the Christmas dinner with paired wines. Food and service deserving of numerous hats. The melon pops were outstanding. An explosion of flavour! The festive roasted bird and matching wines were stunning. Nelly's chocolate and orange and paired wine was also a highlight. Having been to numerous hatted restaurants, I'm astonished that Nels has not been hatted. Whimsical, charming and a brilliant sense of fun in a basement like setting. Well worth a visit. Make sure you have the paired wines or you're missing out.
Restaurant was beautiful but lacked staff: topping up wines was slow, there was no front of house upon entry, etc. Now the food. The pea soup and fish pie were very good. Good seasoning, great texture, nice presentation. I just wish they were served slightly warmer, as that would have made them more fragrant. The kingfish with tandoori spices and the goat main could have been more heavily spiced, and whatever came under the fish was so acidic it really didn't do anything for me. The desserts were the highlights. Great textures in both the carrot cake and the shells, although the shells dessert was just a tad too sweet, but a very good end to the meal. Oh and another thing. Serving single malt with a bit of water is pure class and I highly respect any restaurant/owner that correctly serves single malt, but I digress.Overall was pleased, just improving the little things here and there would have made this meal much better.
