“Named after the famous San Marzano tomatoes grown at the base of Mount Vesuvius Marzano brings the world favourite to the heart of the Kootenays. Owners Ryan and Lea worked hard to perfect their dream- best ingredients, fine wine list, imported forno and venturing to Napoli to be mentored by legendary Pizzaiolo, Enso Coccia. Chic decor, quaint yet cosmopolitan along with sensational handmade cuisine it is a foodie heaven! Reminiscent of NYC, Montreal, Vancouver, and top class dining locales we’ve visited! Thank you for the lovely service and warm welcome Mary Beth. You are Fairmont class! 🏆🍷🥃🍕 Perfect for date nights, impress a foodie, celebrate life or enjoy birthday like we did! 🎉🏆🥳”

“Absolutely love this place! We have needed a healthy quick place to eat out or takeaway for a long time. The food is excellent and the owner just a lovely person! I would only make 2 recommendations (not criticizing just suggestions) to maybe add a soup (although the one they have is FANTASTIC) and more drink options. Other than that I could eat here every day! I really appreciate, in the days of gouging, that the prices for quality food are fair!”

Cake Betty 709 Vernon St, Nelson Bakery • $$

“I had the most delicious cake at my friends house the other day from Cake Betty. It was so wonderful that I feel compelled to write a review. Today I went to Cake Betty with another friend who bought the most beautiful small cake for a birthday gift. The owner gave us each a cupcake to enjoy. It was the best cupcake I’ve ever eaten - white cake with butter icing and a little bit of caramel sauce. So delicate and satisfying - I could have eaten three of them :)The bakery is so cute - like a tiny bakery in London, or the West Village. A lovely historical building with a sweet little store front. Go to Cake Betty - you will not be disappointed:)”

“Sky-Lea is a truly incredible caretaker and educator. We were fortunate enough to vacation in Nelson with our entire family (grandparents, sibling-in-laws, and kiddos) and stubbled upon Acorn + Oak Childcare on the Nelson tourism website.

She was so fantastic with our 2 year old and allowed the rest of the fam to spend time on the mountain together without having to worry about him having a wonderful time, getting a nap, etc. She's truly fantastic. Can't recommend highly enough.”

We probably could have shared the burrito it’s so hearty & big! Come with an appetite. They serve no.6 coffee (also a locally brewed brand) and feature a local artist on a gallery wall. A great spot for a Baker Street hang. I even stuck around to get some work done after my lunch meeting.”

“I recently had the pleasure of eating a lunch sandwich at this establishment. I learned an important lesson on the day. That being my half stale sandwiches i make at home arnt actually all that bad. I guess eating the savoury wet hotcross bun they provided puts things into perspective. Due to this experience i'll be sure to eat more sandwiches at home.

Very grateful for this experience”

They have a lunch special that sounded really good but I chose the Yum-Son noodle bowl. The meat was done perfectly and the sauce and other “stuff” was fresh and tasty. My boyfriend had the yellow curry. Also excellent! My only negative was the tip prompt on the pos terminal started at 22%.... I think that’s an industry trend though.”
