It was an amazing meal. We had the platter for two with extra king crab. So delish. Michelle was an awesome server...very attentive and even funny� Totally recommend a visit. I will definitely visit again.
We come here every year and are never disappointed.
Alana our waitress was excellent, very friendly and helpful.
We ordered the pad Thai and seafood fettuccine and both were fresh and tasty with loads of seafood. We shared a desert which was delicious �. They also have an excellent wine list. One of our favourite places to eat downtown Victoria.
We visited and asked several people where to find the best steak, N N's didn't disappoint! Their happy hour appetizer menu was so tempting, we tried several. Service was great and the menu was varied...and steak. Yummy, yummy steak!
Best meal in Victoria. Had the steamed Dungeness crab, escargot and the crab & cheddar sandwich. Not a crumb left in the plate. Highly recommend the Tropical Mimosa.
We went for happy hour. We had raw oysters, calamari, bacon Caesar salad and fried oysters. And some drinks. Price was very reasonable and food was perfect. Service was attentive. Couldn't ask for a better experience. Highly recommend.
Had the best meal tonight highly recommend going here but book so your not disappointed the magical chocolate orb pudding was delicious
We found this place quite unexpectedly as we wandered Victoria one day, and were so grateful we went in! The staff were terrific, and the food was not only absolutely delicious, but presented on the plates with true artistry! This was a dining experience, not just a dinner.
We both have allergies which our waitressand kitchen staff worked extra hard to accommodate us. Everything was cooked to perfection. Our waitress was a delight. THANK YOU so much for giving us the seafood experience we were looking for.

Finally - a not-so-salty restaurant for me as a typical Asian.
Upon entering the restaurant, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere. The tasteful decor, combined with soft ambient lighting, created a cozy and intimate setting that immediately put me at ease. The attentive staff guided me to a comfortable table and took their time to explain the menu and make recommendations.
One of the standout features of this establishment is their commitment to providing dishes with just the right amount of saltiness. As someone who has often found local restaurants' offerings to be overpoweringly salty, I was delighted to discover a menu that emphasized flavor without relying on excessive sodium. Each dish I sampled was a testament to the chef's skill in achieving a perfect balance of flavors.
To accompany my meal, I opted for a glass of wine from their thoughtfully curated selection. The restaurant boasts an impressive array of wines, each carefully chosen to enhance the flavors of the dishes.
In addition to the exceptional food and wine, the service at this establishment was impeccable. The staff was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about ensuring that every guest had a memorable dining experience. Their professionalism and warmth added an extra layer of enjoyment to my meal.
In conclusion, I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough for those seeking a culinary haven that celebrates the art of flavor without drowning it in excessive salt. From the delectable oysters to the expertly crafted rolls, every dish is a testament to the chef's skill and commitment to quality. Coupled with an impressive wine selection and impeccable service, this establishment stands out as a true gem in the city's dining scene.
Finally, I have found a restaurant that understands the importance of a balanced and less salty approach to gastronomy, satisfying the cravings of Asian cuisine enthusiasts and discerning palates alike.
We got recommended this place by our friendly tour guide. I love the ambiance and the view we got as we had a window seat. Sea
food is fresh but all of out dishes were extremely salty for my taste. However, I guess it is the locals taste.
Came here for a birthday celebration dinner. We ordered a platter which was very good. Steak was cooked perfectly and seafood was very good too. We also ordered the calamari which was a great Appetizer. Service was friendly. Overall a good experience
Our last meal in Victoria was lunch at Nautical Nellies. We sat on their beautiful patio surrounded by flowers. The food was delicious, the service was friendly and fast, but it is the presentation that takes the show. The gourmet presentation that makes eating fun.
We had an excellent lunch here and ate all the lobster dishes!
We tried the lobster quesadilla from the happy hour menu. I had the fish tacos from the happy hour menu. We also tried the lobster grilled cheese, lobster Mac and cheese, lobster roll and lobster bisque. Everything was fresh and tasty. Service was great and we had a nice private booth for our larger group. They did a great job.
It was our first time here, and we’re definitely coming back! We were so impressed with the food quality. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious, and the temperature of the food was perfect. The best part was the dessert - we highly recommend the choux!
Amazing service I think her name was Emily maybe . She was fantastic
Food was unbelievable
The lobster crab salad 15 🌟
And lobster dip 20 🌟 lol yes that good. We are from Vancouver and came to Victoria for the 2nd Xmas and this is our 3rd time at nautical Nellie's.. It will b on our list next year as well. OH AND THE CHERRY GARCIA
50 🌟 HOLY MOLY THE DESERT OF A LIFETIME. 😊 I wish I took a pic of that but I think it was gone by the time I could get my phone back out ..
Delicious! Took my boyfriend here for the first time and he absolutely loved it. We both got drinks which were good. We shared a calamari which was a little bit small for $20. My boyfriend has the steak and he likes it done rare and he was so happy with how it turned out. I had the fish and chips and the fish was so crispy and very good. I will add the fries are not good, they are very soggy. Will come back but I would love to see the fries change.
An incredible restaurant and definitely priceworthy!
We had a nice place outside, in the shade and with a fresh breeze and our waiter was extraordinarily friendly and courteous.
The dishes, the burger as well as the fish, tasted delicious, were nicely plated and a good size. The self-made drinks were very tasty as well.
The experience overall was great in any case, the atmosphere was very harmonious, the dishes tasted superb and were worth their price.
We had the hot seafood platter with lobster. It was incredible. My husband said he could come back later in the day and have the same thing. The platter had shrimp, salmon, mussels, clams, scallops, lobster, potatoes, and zucchini. Fresh and cooked to perfection. If you are in town and are searching for fresh seafood, seach no further.
Hands down the best foo I've ever had. Lobster fest was amazing. I cannot wait for my next trip to Victoria just so I can wat here again!!!
Amazing service and overall experience. Price is reasonable for the quality you get. 10/10 for the share platter. We got mussels and clams to start and that was so so good too. Staff were very good.
Great clam chowder soup. Highly recommend it.
Calamari is also nicely done.
We went to Nautical Nellies not once, but two weekends in a row for brunch. All the dishes were amazing, packed with large chunks of seafood and were really good portions, especially for sharing! My favourites are the lobster and crab salad (large enough for 2-3), the lobster and crab French toast, lobster roll, and last but not least, the brioche French toast! The French toast is so good it should be illegal, especially at only $10. As a Victoria local, I am always trying different restaurants in town and I have to say this place is one of the best. Don’t miss this place the next time you are in Victoria!
Food was excellent, while the setting is a bit dated and stuffy. It was humid that day and the place could use a fan for circulation. My crab and lobster salad was well made and perfectly dressed. The fries from the fish and chips were very good.
