As I've heard and seen in the community , this ""spot"" has had a few rough reviews . However, I think if you look at this establishment as a whole , there isn't a more "" complete experience"" in the area. If you like a raw bar, outdoor bar ( top floor no less) , fine dining , and a metropolitan bar atmosphere , you need only take a few steps anywhere inside NELSONS. The staff is courteous , helpful, and has a great working knowledge of the menu. The owners are always present so , any feedback and concerns are instantly addressed. There are new bar features , as well as menu refinments that add to this aready outstanding establishment. There is no need to have any other notion about patronizing NESLONS other than to say the food , nightlife, and overall experience will be one that will keep you coming back for more . I highly reccomend it for any occasion and hope that Raleigh will continue to support this exciting new ""concept"" and have it be the ""place to be"" for the triangle area .......\r
