Even in the dead of winter when it's very quiet in Nelson, Red Light offers the same high level of utterly tasty cuisine, lovingly served as always,

Superb ramen! Acoustics make it a little “buzzy”, but still a nice experience.

Consistently great food and the whole place has a great vibe. I was hesitant to try something other than the ramen (because I love it) but the Dan Dan Noodles did not disappoint. One of my favorite places to eat in Nelson.

Great service, amazing ramen. We ordered the Pork Tantan the first time around and it was amazing. The next time some ordered the Chicken Tantan and one had the gluten-free noodles. all meals were excellent and the broth was amazing. Our server was responsive and friendly. I live in the Lower Mainland Vancouver, and this is the best ramen I have ever had. From the moment I finished my first meal, I was already planning my next visit in my short visit to Nelson. On our second visit there was an electrical problem in the kitchen, so there was a risk of us not being able to go, but they called to let us know, and they resolved it quickly and our reservation was only delayed 30 minutes.

Food was unbelievably tasty. Best we had in Nelson! Cocktail menu was creative. We could not have been happier with our meal. The service was lackluster. We didn’t interact with our server until it was time to order dinner, so we ordered drinks, apps and dinner all at once and it was delivered together. No one checked in with us really at all, so we never ordered a second drink or the dumplings which we thought about trying. Saved us money, but it was a missed opportunity for the restaurant! With some attention to the customer this place would be 5 stars without a doubt. So delicious.

Good food, awesome ambience. Server was awful. We had a reservation for 4, knocked on the door at 359 and the lone server dressed in slippers eventually came out and said we don’t open till 4 after ignoring our polite request to be seated. She was playing on her phone ignoring us for minutes, then proceeded to give more attitude throughout the meal. You should not be made to feel bad at a restaurant

Phoenix was great. She was managing the bar as well as serving and we came in with a party of 20. A few in our party had to go to a soccer game and she rush their orders and packed them to go so they could make it on time. Really exceptional drinks and food all around!

The food and staff at this restaurant is outstanding. The only negative component of our experience was a rude patron having a loud FaceTime conversation that dominated the sound scape of the restaurant for over half an hour. Obviously not their fault but annoying nonetheless.

I have a very restricted diet currently and I was so happy they could customize my meal so I could dine out. They did a great job as I had no side effects the next day! Yay, thank you so much!
