Nellie's Southern Kitchen offers a variety of Southern dishes, with standout items being their incredible biscuits and flavorful shrimp & grits. The fried chicken is fantastic, and the mac and cheese, while sometimes overcooked, is very cheesy and good overall. Guests have enjoyed the fish street tacos and sweet potato fries, which are cooked perfectly and seasoned well. The chicken is juicy and pairs well with their fresh sides. The service is generally attentive and friendly, with staff being described as great, professional, and fun to deal with. There have been some reports of inconsistency, but some guests have noted that managers, like Andre, are committed to making things right. The restaurant is usually clean, but some guests have mentioned that the bathrooms need a major upgrade. While it can be a bit noisy, the food and service often create an enjoyable dining experience. Prices are on the higher end, but the quality of the food typically justifies the cost. Nellie's has been recognized for its wonderful atmosphere, making it a popular spot for special occasions, especially during events like the Paparrazi convention. The down home food and hospitality contribute to a feeling of comfort for visitors.
