Nelson's

It seems to be a tradition. After landing at Love Field from a long flight, I go visit the staff at Nelson’s off of Preston to get a solid pour. Call me crazy, but I like to pair the deviled eggs with the Weller 107. It’s harder and harder to get a nice pour at a reasonable price. My wife loves the okra and the bison meatloaf is fantastic. Cheers!!

Just had a nice quiet lunch.great atmosphere. Anna was such a good server so polite and helpful.. I Ordered a chicken club with a side of grilled veggies. Even though it is a simple dish the details were perfect. Grilled veggies were seasoned wonderfully. Chicken was juicy and full of flavor, bacon was thick with the perfect amount of crisp. My friend's bison meatloaf smelled and looked great too I will have to come back. Well done!

I loved how Bryan tweaked my drink to my taste for the night. He is a expert and in bar technique. Then they tweaked my steak and crab cake. The seer ice and food was awesome. Every part of my meal was flavorful and cooked to perfection.

I’m not even waiting until I get home to share that I just had the most delicious ribeye here at Nelson’s. My husband and I were craving something/somewhere different. I found Nelson’s and saw the good reviews, so we headed out even though they were going to be closing soon after we would arrive. (We did call ahead.) We were a little worried coming in. It was very empty. Just 2 other customers and one was paying out. The decor was … non existent? I mean, it’s very clean, but the shades of gray and white are cold and uninviting. We decided to stay because we were hungry, the reviews were good, and it wasn’t ridiculously priced. We started with drinks. My husband had wine-Decoy merlot, $15 a glass. A little more than I’d expect for Decoy, but not bad. I had an Italicus Spritz ($9). I’d never had one and never seen it on a menu anywhere, so I was curious. It was so refreshing! I immediately looked up Italicus at Total Wine so I could buy some for summer spritzers. My husband got a shooter of lobster bisque. He’s not a big soup guy, but he really liked the bisque. He said a shooter was just the right amount for him, so it’s great that they offer that. We shared the spring mix salad. The dressing was a bit spicy, which we really liked. It was also unique in that it had whole olives, cotija cheese and capers along with all the usual ingredients in a dinner salad. It was really good. I’m a big eater, so I ordered the 12 ounce ribeye. It came with mashed potatoes and asparagus. The potatoes were just ok, but the steak was so flavorful! It was a thin-ish cut and was a bit on the medium side (I ordered it medium rare), but I ate every last bite. It was just what I wanted. My husband got the bison meatloaf. It also came with mashed potatoes and asparagus. He said the meatloaf was very good. He said the gravy was the best he’d ever had in restaurant. He finished my mashed potatoes with the last of his meatloaf. Being a Saturday night we were very surprised there weren’t more people there, but I suspect they do great business on weekdays and for happy hour as well as brunch. We’ll definitely be back for the food. Maybe I’ll donate a large piece of art with some bright red, yellow, and orange color to perk up the dining room. Or maybe not, but they really could use a little color and something to soften the atmosphere. The food though is everything we were looking for.

Traveling out of town my family n I checked out the reviews and it sounded great and we were not disappointed at all ! Brian was amazing!! The appetizers were delicious, steak was flavorful and my salad was fresh n the homemade dressings but nothing beats Brian's hospitality!!
