Nello's Downtown

Excellent restaurant. Took my girlfriend here for her birthday and we both absolutely loved the food and service. It was my second time here so I ordered the pork tender loin in mushroom sauce again since the first time was already heaven. I don’t know how they do it but it’s legitimately the best meat & sauce I’ve eaten so far. James was our server and he was very attentive and friendly. All in all a great experience and great service.

Excellent service and even better food!!! I brought my wife for A New Year’s Eve supper and we were treated amazingly. The food was was traditional and absolutely phenomenal! So good in fact I had to tip the kitchen. Our server James was awesome and knowledgeable. He helped a lot with pairings and non-alcoholic recommendations for my pregnant wife. Top notch service on all fronts!!! We will be coming back again!!!

This was my first time at Nello's after just deciding to try it after walking past a few times. Overall the experience was very good - our server was high energy and interesting - the food was pretty good - first of all the portions (of pasta) are so massive you can eat a full meal and have another meal to go, for me I would have traded half my pasta for a bit fuller chicken in my parm chicken but what I got was still overkill for the price -- if you are a big eater this is a place for you. The tiramisu was very good as well, definitely tasted like it was made in house (the chocolate sauce had hint of Kahlúa was a nice touch).

Went to the new downtown location for my wife’s birthday. Was not disappointed! Fantastic food and service every bit as good as the St Albert location. It’s great to have one closer to home!

Highly recommend! Great service, great food! I know it's typical of a review to say that but when you walk in, one of the owners (I believe it's Danny) will greet you as if you're family and from there the experience only gets better! The appetizer Prawns alla Nello are so perfectly cooked that the second time we went, we ordered them as an entree. We had mussels in a spicy tomato sauce that was just the right level of heat.
If you're a fan of Caesars, then I highly recommend getting one here. There selection of drinks is quite small but the Caesar will make up for that!
