Nelly's northern banter, charm and wit really shine through his food, ambience and staff at Nel restaurant. Situated down a small flight of stairs off Wentworth Avenue in Sydney CBD you will find yourself in a romantic and intimate setting. The calm and composed kitchen orchestrates two sittings and takes the customer on a fun, playful and tasty journey.
