Best in Nelson, can't wait until they open..5 stars
The food was amazing and the service was top notch. Will return the next time I am in town. If you haven't eaten here you need to.
Preferred their location when they were on the North Shore, but the downtown Nelson location makes sense for easier access to most locals and tourists I suppose. Chow mein is still among the best, but the sweet and sour pork seems to have slipped in quality a bit since years gone by. Overall, a solid destination if you are in the mood for North American style Chinese Food. They do have an outdoor patio as well, which would be nice on a warm, sunny day.

Amanda's Restaurant is a well-loved spot in Nelson, known for its tasty Chinese food. The friendly and cooperative staff are eager to assist with menu selections, offering a variety of options, including gluten-free dishes. Recently relocated to the downtown area, the restaurant is now more accessible than ever. The menu features both Canadian Chinese and Asian dishes, with good quality food that is relatively oil and msg free. Highly recommended dishes include the Ginger Beef, Chicken & Mushrooms, Cantonese Chicken Chow Mein, and the House Special Chop Suey, which is great for those who enjoy lots of fresh vegetables and a variety of protein. The restaurant is also kid-friendly, with a solid kids menu and generous portions. The Wor Won Ton soup is noted for being one of the most flavorful available, while the dry garlic pork is lightly coated and extra garlicky, making it a delightful option. For dessert, the chocolate mousse cheesecake is a must-try, regardless of opinions. With reasonable prices and very good service, Amanda's Restaurant remains a great choice for everyone, including those with dietary restrictions.
