Restaurants near Nelson Street Recreation Area

Excellent romantic dinner. Menu breadth is a bit limited beyond fish & raw, but quality of cuisine was exceptional including the truffle ramen, the hibiscus cosmo, and more

Great food! Wonderful server Kelly, who always makes our visit so enjoyable!

My daughter and I tried Salena for the first time last night. It's been open a few months, taking the place of another great restaurant. We were very surprised at how empty the dining room was when we arrived. It did fill up a bit as our dinner went on, but not as much as I expected. There were a lot of people coming in, but most were going upstairs where there is more of a bar/lounge area. I did check it out before leaving and it seemed like a great place to join friends - very energetic with music and large bar. Something to check out another time. I ordered an incredible martini. Expensive, but large with a great flavor and unique speared toppings. We tried the elote corn dip with homemade chips. I highly recommend this! I ordered the cubano sandwich and my daughter had a burger. My cuban sandwich was delicious - very full with a unique raspberry dipping sauce. My daughter liked, but didn't love, her burger. There fries were excellent. We are big fans of alfajores, an Argentinean cookie, and the ones at Salena did not disappoint. What a great treat to end the meal! I wish there were a few more main meal options. The menu is limited to apps, tacos, and sandwiches. I'd like to try the tacos on another night as there were many different options. The prices were a bit high for what we had - $24 burgers and a $17 sandwich. I don't mind higher prices at restaurants, but thought these prices were on the higher end. I'm looking forward to returning to Salena for a night upstairs with my husband. Our waitress was excellent! Extremely professional, had a great knowledge of the menu, and was really personable.

East Bay Grille is a favorite place to meet friends. The food is great, the choices are numerous, the ambiance is great and our server was very helpful.

Wonderful first meal for us at Anna's Harborside. The service was prompt and friendly. The food was outstanding. The fish and chips had a pound! of fish. The lollipop lamb chops were done to perfection. We loved the experience and will be back.
