★★★★★ 5.0 Arthur Jameson · Apr 2025

What a great diner. We stopped in after doing some work in the area and had a delicious burger with some kind of a jam on it! My wife got some delicious cheese covered fries that had fried chicken over the top. My whole party loved everything we got. Apparently all the spices and sauces are made in house by the chef. After the meal she even came out to check in on us. Love the food and hospitality!

I brought my staff to Nellie’s Kitchen for lunch, and it was an excellent experience. Everyone ordered something different, and every single person said their meal was amazing. The atmosphere truly feels like a hidden gem in the area—warm, welcoming, and relaxed. On top of that, the customer service was great. We’ll definitely be coming back!

I have been to the restaurant four times. I have tried multiple things. I have a household of four so we have all tried something different every single time. It has been low quality food there salmon cheese steaks are OK anything other than that is a no the burgers no the wings no, all the soul food items no. Every time I come in the staff is so nice. I want the food to taste exactly how nice the staff is, but nope.

I stopped here on my first time to sell New Jersey, and I loved it. The food really seemed like it took a lot of effort to make and there were so many unique choices for sauces and spices. I would totally come back again, very easily. The staff was extremely nice and welcoming, and there were chessboard to every seat, so entertainment was great and the music they played was exceptional.

I'm always hesitant when trying new places but this was definitely worth it. My favorite was the chicken & fries but my friend got the Salmon nuggets. Said they were REALLY GOOD. FINALLY a fresh spot close by. Will definitely be a new 'go-to' said 20 min but was ready in 15.
