    The lack large single ice cubes for cocktails such as Old Fashion's. Using regular ice waters the drink down. Service both at the bar and at the table was top notch. Food was delicious.

    Lord Nelson is an expensive Restuarant. Service is excellent. Food is tasty and cooked to perfection just the way you want it. The restaurant has no natural lighting. The Christmas decorations on the full roof made the place stuffy and claustrophobic. Overall the service and quality of food made up for the ambience and get up. The Caesar salad made fresh on the table side is a must order.

    Excellent food, excellent service and great ambience especially with their Christmas decorations. The restaurant was full but the staff did an excellent job maintaining the level of service expected at a higher end establishment. Highly recommend.
