I want to be able to give Nello's 3.5 stars.
Great:
I love the attentive service, the REALLY great beer selection (wine too) and portion sizes. Family run joint, that you have to stop into if you live in The Valley. You just do.
Meh:
I can't say I am overwhelmed by the food, it's standard fair - Done right. But I am fairly underwhelmed.
Overall:
The restaurant is cozy and has that "easy going" family atmosphere. I do appreciate Nello's for staying in business all these years. It has a great nostalgia for a lot of us on the East Side.
