Marzano
Italian restaurant
🫀 I gave this a 2 instead of 5 for dinner only because we were told that we had to vacate our table after having dinner and drinks as the table was reserved for another group. This was only after being seated for 90 minutes. A 90 minute turnover is unreasonable...if the table had a limited sitting t...

The Black Cauldron
Restaurant
πŸ‘πŸ‘ The Black Cauldron is a great Sunday date night spot - huge patio in the back and lots of mocktail/cocktail options to try. The theme is clever, but the flavour was right on. Don't be turned off by the strange sounding ingredients - the egg white is whipped into a meringue and really tasty! Desserts...

πŸ‘πŸ‘ We stop in several times while visiting Nelson (my hometown). I always get the broiled chicken rolled-in pita with Greek salad and my husband gets the mushroom deluxe burger. My kiddos tend to get the chicken fingers and fries. We all leave happy. The food is exceptional and the service is phenomena...

Kootenay Co-op Grocery Store
Grocery store
😐 A unique shopping experience with a good selection of goods. But bring lots of $$$ as it's easily the most expensive grocery store in the area. Lots of overpriced merchandise for those with piles of disposable income.

El Taco
Mexican restaurant
πŸ‘πŸ‘ We love this as a quick place to stop after a long backpacking trip. It’s fairly simplistic food, but it’s fast and reliable. I like the option for turkey chorizo. Got a cocktail for the first time and the Paloma was delicious, although I didn’t get much rosemary flavor. I like having the different...

🫀 Nice space with friendly staff but food was not impressive. If you are familiar with Vietnamese cuisine and been to many Vietnamese restaurants, you will be disappointed. Foods are presented in similar way but flavour is not there. Curry was not too bad but peaceful noodle bowl was awful. Also every...
