As a person that likes to support small businesses, I have to warn you of this establishment, Nelson's Bar and Grill. It’s run like there are no rules. Every visit I’ve made, staff have been openly drinking while working — the same people serving customers. There’s no sense of management or professionalism, and it shows.

Cleanliness is lacking: some staff look unkempt, a few had dirty shoes, and overall hygiene feels ignored. The atmosphere is chaotic, like nobody’s in charge. I did see one employee trying to keep things professional and likely was the sole reason anyone was eating here, they were the exception, I believe her name is Taylor. Everyone else looked confused as if they needed step by step instructions on how to operate. I overheard two ladies complaining about being on shift, that said alot as well.

The food is nothing special — most of it tastes processed or frozen — and definitely not worth the trip. It looks like standards here don’t exist.

Until this restaurant has some serious changes in leadership, staff training, and basic respect for themselves and others, I would not recommend. Its not worth a try. Beware; Don't put much faith into the ones serving you here.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The food? Absolutely magnificent. The service? Great. The professionalism? Nonexistent—and that’s the real shame, because this place has SO much potential!

Some might ask: “If the food and service were good, why isn’t this glowing?” Simple—the service was only good because of Taylor behind the bar. You could tell she was trying hard to stay professional while employees and regulars were acting out. She’s clearly there to work hard and earn her tips, but there was no manager in sight to back her up.

Meanwhile, whoever was making the occasional appearance (I believe her name was Tabi) offered nothing more than casual small talk and seemed completely disengaged—even while guests were sitting inside. That’s a problem.

Honestly, Gordon Ramsay needs to walk in here and light a fire under the owner. The kitchen isn’t the issue—the food is excellent. The real problem is a lack of professionalism and standards.

For example: I never expect to see my server take a shot right in front of me before grabbing my drinks. It might seem small, but it leaves a lasting negative impression.

This place could easily be the talk of the town if the owner would:
• Hold staff accountable
• Set clear standards
• Run the front of house with the same care as the kitchen

Right now, I don’t even know how it’s making money. The only reason I gave 5 stars is because the food is phenomenal and the staff are nice people. But they need to remember they’re at work—not hanging out as customers.

We was looking for somewhere we have never been before and came across Nelson's Bar and Grill. The service was great and the food wasn't bad. The specials they are offer are pretty good. We will definitely be back to watch football and take advantage of the specials.

The place is very clean, and everybody was very friendly. I would recommend it to all of my friends and family. The food was amazing and they also have bands that play on certain weekends. 😃 Our server was excellent and always had a smile on her face every time she came to the table.

The food was amazing and our service was outstanding for a first time visit. The manager was pleased to hear that the crab cakes were delicious. Would recommend to family and friends.
