Me and my family of 4 we had a big seafood platter, the lobster was super creamy, the scallops tastes mindblowing and the Brussels sprouts with a Cesar calls and the clams with shrimp is a great deal! I loved the way everything tasted and the service was so great employees are super nice!

This restaurant, Nautical Nellies Steak & Seafood House exceeded my expectations! The steak and seafood mixed grill was a masterpiece, cooked to perfection and bursting with flavour. The maple bacon prawn Alfredo was also fantastic; the combination of bacon and prawns worked so well together. Truffle fries are very good, too. Every dish we tried was scrumptious, tasty, and mouthwatering. For dessert, the dark chocolate torte with hazelnut praline and the white chocolate crème brûlée were absolutely divine and melted in your mouth. Compliment to the Chef. The service was attentive, friendly, and excellent. I will always return to dine here. I highly recommend this place!

Good food overall. Nice service. Love your stuffed grilled mushrooms. The fish and chip is good value and nicely done. Steak was a tiny bit over cooked. Salmon was decent, better if the portion is larger. Paella was more like a risotto.

High quality of food, and so tasty. I love all I have and recommends for the happy hour oyster promotion. Good service.

I’ve visited Nautical several times, and it has never let me down. This time, I ordered the grilled fish, which was cooked to perfection—moist and flavorful, not overcooked or dry like in many other seafood places. The asparagus served alongside was excellent as well. My girlfriend had the crab cakes, and they were outstanding. Unlike many places that skimp on crab meat, these were packed with it and tasted fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and will certainly be back!

Good location, easily accessible to other restaurants, shops and places of interest. The patio is an attractive option on a nice day. I ordered the Hokkaido Scallops and Risotto which was nicely presented and super tasty .. yum. The service was friendly and attentive. Highly recommend this place!

The food was phenomenal, the service impeccable, and the Brown Butter Scallops with the Wild mushroom risotto is highly recommended (taste & portion size were perfect). The sushi rolls and desserts were also amazing, highly recommend Nautical Nellie’s!

The food was delicious, presentation was great. Our server was attentive and accommodating. Will definitely come here again.
