About Nellie's

Nellie's, a hidden gem located on the water in a boat storage yard, offers a delightful dining experience with nice views and a great outdoor area. The restaurant has a pleasant and attentive staff that is well-informed about the menu. With a vast selection of vegan options, including a vegan layered dip and housemade vegan burger, Nellie's is perfect for non-vegan groups as well. Must-try dishes include the layered dip, avocado toast, and the Cali burrito, which is a unique find in the area. The raw oysters are amazing and taste super fresh, while the salmon and guacamole with chips come highly recommended. The lobster roll is another highlight, featuring fresh lobster meat and a soft bun. Guests can enjoy the restaurant's outdoor dining area with great views of the Branford River, making it a nice spot for the summer. The atmosphere is spot on, and sometimes there is music, creating a fun and relaxing vibe for family outings or parties. With generous portions and great service, Nellie's is highly recommended, despite occasional delays with desserts.
