Reviews of Marzano (Restaurant)

Jane Robertson

Amazing dinner great breakfast wonderful service

Christine Cusanelli

Great place. Had my wife's birthday party there last night and was an amazing experience. I called in the afternoon to reserve a table and Mr. Zac was so helpful , he reserved the table , gave me options on the cake and the best thing was the clear information he provided over the phone for someone like me who has never even been to a Birthday party at a restaurant. When we arrived at 9 pm, the waiter was even more amazing. The food was great, wonderful ambience and excellent service..highly recommended

H H

Modern decor and quite lovely. Really good risotto, feature wine, and top-notch staff. Looking forward to a return visit!

Ivan DeLisle

Richard gave exceptional customer service and the food was outstanding!

Tammy Frakking

We came here for breakfast and the food was amazing. I personally do not like sourdough but that was the only chose they had, I got the brown sourdough and it was the best I ever had. It was served with a raspberry rhubarb jam, Yum. The rest of the breakfast was excellent and fresh.

Tina Olfatbakhsh

Absolutely delicious food! Between us, our group had the pork tenderloin, quarter chicken, the sirloin steak, the fries, the fingerling potatoes, & the focaccia. It all was expertly cooked. Dishes are paired impeccably well; everything on …

Martina Rushfeldt

Amazing. The ambiance brought me back to some of the fine dining places I've been to in "the big city". I felt like I was somewhere special; they really put a lot of attention and detail into the place, it's beautiful. The FOOD was delightful and so much fun. I dated an Italian for quite a few years so I've eaten my share of that style of cuisine haha...Marzano NAILED IT. Probably the best gnocchi I've ever had. Everything was so fresh and so yummy, I cannot wait to go back and tell everyone to check it out!!!

Andrew K

Amazing restaurant pairing with Great wine. Good value also very friendly staff and great atmosphere!

Henry Xu

This is easily one of the best restaurants in Nelson. I would highly recommend getting the gorgonzola pasta, it was arguably the best pasta I've ever had. I would also say Paige is an excellent waitress and added to the great experience.

Anthony D'Amico

Amazing food especially the pizza! Awesome drink selection and kind/friendly staff. Very comfortable place to dine in!

Christopher Campese

My favorite place in Nelson! Hard to believe it's attached to the Best Western. Having pizza for breakfast is the best. If you're just visiting Nelson pop up to The Sacred Ride and take one of their mountain bikes for a spin!

Pow Sno

I had a great burrato salad. I really liked what they did with the new restaurant. No complaints.

Jaison Mampilly

Really delicious pizza with good vegetarian and at least one vegan option. The fungi was incredible!! The side of gnocchi has almost as many as the appy. A bit expensive. This is the only place I’ve been where someone has gone around the table offering a choice of sparkling or flat water.

Cliff Hohl

Average service. Server made fun of my choice to have half sparkling water and half regular water. Decent food but nothing to write home about. Atmosphere is wonderful however. The restaurant has a fresh, clean feel to it, with tasteful decor.

Thomas Rau

Great authentic pizza in a beautiful freshly renovated space.

Melanie King

Atmosphere/ambience is top notch. Beautifully designed restaraunt. Service staff present well, are attentive and well versed in the menu. The food, bellisimo! Had a fancy date night with my lovely lady at Marazano's. Typically I'm cheap as chips, but we went all out, racked up a sizable bill and have zero regrets. Every bite and sip was a distinct pleasure. That NY Striploin is amazing. Try the rissoto. Get a cocktail. This restaurant is taking all aspects seriously. Absolute pleasure.

North Reisende

One of my favorite places to stop for a bite. Well worth checking out!

Kathy Hardy

Amazing Food, friendly staff and brilliant ambience

Lori Craig

Consistently delicious, go to spot here in Nelson

Brian Kent

We visit often. Love the pizza best in Nelson. That is a complement as there are many great restaurants in this beautiful place. Interior is new and. beautifully done. Love the pizza oven. Staff is always professional and friendly. They are coping with a nice covered outside deck presently.

Roy Kroeker

The pizza is outstanding and the service is exceptional.

Officer Linguine

It is good to have a tasty dish. Amazing to have two. Unbelievable to have all dishes shining like stars--and in their own rights. Mazarno has achieved the latter: each dish wowed us and the whole meal just seemed to get better and better. …

Rajan Sharma

Great fire roasted pizza

Molly Caron

Absolutely love it great food friendly staff the best

James Baxter

Very posh upscale and affordable place!!!

Jamie Cote

The space is very beautifully decorated and the pizza oven is incredible; very cool to watch them make the pizzas while you sit. I only give three stars as the gnocchi that I had wasn't very good; it was a little too chewy and bland (I poured some of their homemade chili oil on it for some taste). It was a little lacking in texture and flavour. Their side salad was very good; light and flavourful. My partner had the Margarita pizza and enjoyed it, but the bottom of the pizza crust in the middle was undercooked. Their seasons vegetables were little carrots. It would have been nice to add something else to that dish, other than just carrots. The gelato was good; great flavour options. For those with egg allergies, the server said their pasta was egg free, but I would double check with the chef to make sure.

D Rose

Fantastic restaurant, great atmosphere and food. Very classy, something I would expect from a posh high class restaurant in Vancouver. Very friendly and attentive servers. Will go back many times ????

Ali

I love what you did with the place. It's a beautiful atmosphere and the waitresses are young and still learning. Don't be such a grinch and give them a break. Our experiences have been super nice. Special thank you to the bartender, who was very educational during our visit. We will definitely be back and spreading the word.

Kiara Lynch

Great food, fresh flavours and awesome service.

Eagleridge He

Absolutely Incredible, fantastic decoration and atmosphere, very accommodating to vegetarians, food was delicious excellent service, very friendly staff. Special props to the waitress; Paige for giving a free desert because of a chef mishap. All in all this place deserves an 11/10

Daryl Burton

Marzano's has become my favorite restaurant in Nelson. The staff is welcoming and very friendly and the food is delicious and unique. Loved our two evenings there.

Aaron Witt

Fantastic breakfast. I ordered the Classic - it’s a sure marker of a great chef if they can turn the ‘ordinary’ into the Extraordinary, with a few creative twists and turns of the palette - the journey into a pleasant surprise happened this morning at Mariano- cheers!

Martin Baluch

This was an amazing experience. Every item I ordered was delicious, fresh, and in the case of the dessert, innovative. You HAVE to go here for dinner or even lunch if you get the chance.

Aaron Krogh

Great service and food.

Muhammed Alibashev

Service was a sweet spot between knowledgeable but not pretentious, we loved it. The food was definitely something to write home about, if that was still a thing. And the drinks were delicious. Il postino cocktail is worth a mention. If …

Austin Jeng

Exceptional - food, service, ambiance, top notch! Excellent dining experience from start to finish - thank you Marzano for a fantastic start to our Nelson holiday

David Hamilton

We've tried many highly rated restaurants during our stay in Nelson but most were overpriced and underwhelming.. except Marzano. The pizza, squid starter, pasta mains, all were well worth it. Staff was great as well! Would recommend to friends and family.

Michael MacPhail

Food very good, waitress ???? Pointing out for a tip is not very friendly, even though it's usual here. Therefore only three stars.

Jody Wall

Excellent food, service and ambience! Marzano’s has become our go-to place because we know we will always enjoy our time there. We recently tried their breakfast and thoroughly enjoyed our egg bennies. Highly recommend!

James Wilson

Yummy, friendly, well lit and fresh.

Martha Phelps

Hands down the best in Nelson! Incredible decor, incredible service and incredible food! Wow!

Traci R

Great food! Sit at the pizza counter for ambience and to watch the pizza get cooked. Prawn pizza is worth checking out if you like seafood.

Tyler Jones

Every dish I tried was amazing, truly. Highly recommended..

crystalizedmedium

This place is one of my favorites. Clean crisp decor with amazing service!

Lisa Lopez

I spent a few days at the best western next door. It was great to have such an awesome restaurant next door. I enjoyed a great breakfast and fantatsic dinner. Inside is very refreshing. Also very kid friendly

Laura Ogden

This is sooooo unbelievable tasty! Everything was perfectly cooked, can't stop smiling after eating the pasta and salad. Nice atmosphere and excellent service as well. I will give 10 stars if I can. Would be here again and again for sure.

Daniel Taylor

Amazing! Such a nice chic place!!!!! Had coffee, a light dessert, spaghetti with spicy meatballs, caprese salad and aperol. Yummmm! Nice staff, fabulous modern design, European feel and savoury food!!!!

Amrit Hundal

Amazing! Great place with delicious food. Would definitely recommend. Thank you!!! Our server Lisa was friendly and inviting. Our bartender Marshall was knowledgeable and spirited.

Alessandra Charlier Pereira

Amazing. Best restaurant in Nelson. Loved the food and decor.

Roberto Buttazzoni

Thank you Zach for making the best Ceasar drink with your signature chimichurri ingredients! Food was amazing too!

juliana and Daniel

Great atmosphere, good food!

Brooke L

Service

Chic Sophistic

Great place to eat Italian food!

Shannon Luft

Interior was really nice looking but we dined outside....which unfortunately got really chilly in the evening (but they provided gas powered radiant heaters). Toscano burger was delicious! Buttermilk chicken pasta was excellent (could have done without the pepperocini reduction...too spicy). Had a lovely meal

Jason V.

Superb Italian restaurant! Pizza is very delicious!

Mia Gardiner

So delicious and fresh (microgreen fridge fresh) beautifully crafted meals - such an attention to pallette flavours and visual appeal; made with care and it shows.

Daniel Airth-Nelson

Nice decor, Was really disappointed with the pasta options. Food sounds better on the menu than it actually is.

Rudy Dyck

This place was fantastic. Had the mushroom toast, added hollandaise and it was awesome.

Emily Frederickson

Oh I cannot begin to tell you how FABULOUS this place is!!!! The food and service were OUTSTANDING!!! I honestly have nothing but good good good to say!!!

John Connor

Staff are always super friendly and attentive, food is hands down the best in town. Get the specials, they're highly creative and delicious & updated regularly!

Therese Mah

Great food. We ordered take away, but the restaurant was really spaced out nicely for COVID, so you could feel comfortable going there in person. My wife had the fried mushroom salad which was reported as 'awesome'. I had a side salad that was anything but. Great size and a lot of flavour. For me the oven fired pizza was the piece de resistance. It was perfectly done. Would highly recommend and we may even find ourself in their restaurant or on their patio.

David Cheatley

Clean place, very friendly staff, and very good food! Will definitely recommend.

Caleb A. Morton

Best place in the city to eat, hands down! Menu is refreshing, modern, and tastes absolutely amazing! Super fresh, and you can tell that with every bite, just filled with flavor, keeping with the simple basics and executing it to perfection. Just a perfect experience here, with everything cooked just right!

Matt Jacobs

Nice restaurant with great food

The Blindman

Modern look. Great service. Impeccable food. Bartender was a super star and on its game. Manager thanked us as I left. They set a standard...

Justin Smith

Great atmosphere and staff. A wonderful place to get great Napolitano pizza

Eric Harris

This is THE PLACE to visit when you’re in Nelson. Some of the best pizza and caesars I’ve ever had. Gorgeous space and patio. Very friendly and attentive staff. Washrooms were elegant and clean. …

Melody Diachun

Great service. The interior and space is beautiful. Food was very good. Enjoyed it. The salami pizza was simply excellent. The crust was chewy and cooked perfectly. Flavourful and good for 1 person at 12".

Stewart Minns

The clean modern aesthetic was a harbinger of what what to come. Prompt service. Comphy. The owners went to Italy to learn the pizza trade and it showed. Our dietary considerations were easily met and results were simply divine.

Purple Angel

Great service. I had the best Toscano burger. Am going to get it again. It was that good!

Jordan Bonal

Great atmosphere and the food was very tasty. This is a must try in Nelson!

Yassi Nikkhah

Excellent food! Mushrooms on toast never looked so fancy nor tasted so AMAZING!

Michael Butler

My hubby and I LOVED the beef tenderloin. Sooooo delicious!!

Joe Kan

We had breakfast and lunch here and both meals were fantastic. Blown away by the renos. Thank you. Very friendly service.

Alexander Cecil

Had to put a star only cause it wouldn’t let me write this otherwise. 5, 1/8” strips of a tri tip sreak for $20? Are you kidding me? I’m not fancy! But I’ve dealt with fancy, and the 5 strips of steak was below worthy! Thank the lords we paid with a gift card, that we won at a way better dinner!!!

Paul Volchoff

Giving 4 stars only for the amazing squid dish with mouthwatering sauce. Otherwise would've been 3. I stayed at the hotel upstairs and therefore had a chance to eat at Marzano several times. Besides the squid I really liked the Caprese salad with fresh and juicy tomatoes. Breakfast pancakes were very good as well. The staff was amazing and very helpful. Mushroom pizza was burnt and bland with thick crust and all toppings sliding right off the dough. Egg breakfasts were quite plain and unflavored with eggs overcooked and potatoes undercooked. The decor is very modern and pleasant but the swivel chairs at the community table were horrible. May be they'd be ok at the bar to get a quicker customer rotation but bad idea at the dining table especially when you have to wait longer for your meals during peak hours. Would be also nice if they delivered food to hotel rooms upstairs even for an extra fee. Overall it is a nice place to hang around with friends for a few drinks and some appetizers.

Eva Hernandez

Best pizza in town, big pints of pironi to wash it down.????????

Ansu Singh

Awesome food, great ambience and super professional staff.

Bari HAJI (Energy)

Great pizza, and great prices!

Robin Rowley

Awesome new-age italian restaurant! I had the meatballs appy,margherita pizza, and some gelato. The pizza was pretty next level delicious, it was baked in a wood fired oven traditional style and was among one of the best pizzas i've had in recent memory. The atmosphere of the restaurant was modern but stylish and the seating was comfortable, staff were very helpful and friendly and the food came fairly fast. Probably one of the better places to eat within Nelson.

Keith Finlay

Awesome food, awesome service, awesome atmosphere

JuLMi OP

Great pizza, awesome staff all around great way to dine

Black Fox

Excellent pizza and gnocchi. Delicious wine and Nelson Brewery beer on tap. Service was welcoming and classy. Beautiful design and layout of the faculties. We highly recommend.

Martha Chick

As a newer entry to Nelson hotel dining I am hopefull they pickup their morning service, menu variety and coffee quality. Where to begin, 2 stars is a gracious rating since the restaurant is new and so is the staffing. We received no greeting from the counter person. The waitress was 3to4 minutes to attend to bringing menus, which she delivered with a kind hello and left. 2to3 minutes passed before we had to flag the waitress for coffee. Coffee came without spoons but was nice to include dirty mugs and a flavorless liquid that should have been our coffee. With my wheat and nightshade sensitivities I had the option of salad, fruit salad, egg and bacon. At this point we were not sure the kitchen could deliver a satisfying meal, paid for our flavoured coffee and gave our explanations to our waitress before leaving. I hope to try this restaurant again but after the staffing becomes a little more seasoned. I wonder how the lunch and dinners service and meals will be.

Amanda Gibb

Pizza are really good gnocchi is also amazing. Not huge fan of there stake or there other pasta

Cellar Door

Great pizza, breakfast and best if all when uts this hot.....fantastic AC

Ray Tyers

The food here is amazing, the atmosphere is also quite good. Service was friendly and attentive

Clay Derouin

Amazing Space! The attention to detail in this space is astounding. THE FOOD... We had the Pizza, Lamb and pasta and shared a salad. The flavours and technique/care with which everything was put together made everything taste great. With all the restaurants in Nelson, the Marzano is a shining star

Jihye Bajkor

The top Italian restaurant in Nelson! The ambience, the service, the drink menu, and the food are of the highest quality. Every time I have gone I've tried something new and never been disappointed. And the Sunday morning brunch my wife and I shared was absolutely fabulous!!

Gwen Smith

Superb service, really classy atmosphere and delicious Italian menu. Nice place for the family or drinks and dessert with friends.

Iain Nealie

Their breakfast is amazing!

Amy Wiens

Really good food at a reasonable price and the service is very good as well

Spencer Croteau

Is this place reservation-only? This is a restaurant attached to a hotel, right? And they're affiliated to a point because if you decline room cleaning at the hotel you get a voucher for this restaurant. So I show up at the restaurant at 5:30 p.m. on a Tuesday in late October. I'm asked if I want to sit at the bar. I say no I don't want to sit at the bar. The hostess then tells me that every single table they have unused is reserved -- at 5:30 p.m. in Nelson in late October. Sorry what? You're the restaurant attached to a hotel and you have zero availability for hotel guests eat at your restaurant? I guess that voucher for not getting your room cleaned isn't worth much after all

Jenna Wood

Beautiful and warm atmosphere. Our waitress was lovely and the food was delicious too!!

Zach Burleson

YES! I hadvto sign in to my google just to leave a review! BEST PASTA EVER! Will be coming back to nelson just for this. LITERALLY 10/10 you won’t regret it! Spaghetti was so goodvit’s unexplainable, it was magic in my mouth. Kudos to the chef. Seriously.

melanie laurene

Went for brunch and loved it so much went back for dinner. Morning coffees were delicious. Service and decor were very inviting.

Tegan Bonnet

Excellent breakfast with great service.

Slick50

This place is fantastic...great staff, service and very modern upscale interior plus great value. Stayed next door at the Best Western a few weeks ago while on a motorcycle trip with some buddies and we had vouchers for breakfast ....great food and espresso’s . Returned with my wife just recently and went for dinner...absolutely wonderful experience, food, staff ambiance etc....definitely would recommend this place....

Kia B

Very nice interior and reasonable prices for the pizzas. One pizza would be good for an individual but I would recommend getting two and sharing with another. Only issue is that some of the pizzas are slim on the toppings.

Jack Fenkhuber

Highly suggested. Very nice customer service, environment and reasonable price.

Heather Woodward

Friendly, welcoming & passionate staff serving authentic Italian food! Our favorite - Pizza from the beautiful wood fired pizza oven! Many different vegetarian and gluten free options to choose from as well! Even just passing by, you can feel the amazing energy exuding from the inside out of this bustling new restaurant, you can’t just stroll by! Go on in and take a front row seat at the bar and watch the friendly chefs flipping pizza dough in the air with big smiles, choose a cozy booth, or sit by the window! If you didn’t look outside at the stunning Kootenay mountain views from the restaurant windows, you might just think you were dining in a beautiful restaurant in Italy. Highly recommend!

Michelle Thibodeau

Great ambience, beautiful room. Good friendly service. All of our meals were really good: my burger was juicy and flavourful, the soup of the day (tomato, black pepper, gin) was excellent and the spaghetti and meatballs were a hit. The salads were the only disappointment: not enough besides lettuce and not enough dressing. Skip the salads and you will have a great meal!

No Names

As soon as I walked in I was impressed with the decor. Classy and clean. The servers were polite and helpful and the pizza was top notch and when I ordered wine I asked for something sweet but not too sweet and I have to say it was fantastic wine that the waitress picked for me.

Sidd Mukherjee

One star short of 5 star is still excellent in my book. It's close to fantastic, and possibly the best in Nelson, and I am comparing it to the best restaurants in any big city. You will be more than happy with the service, and the quality.

J'Anne Monteleone

Absolutely delicious breakfast and dinner!! Fresh tasting, well made and well cooked. The pizza has excellent flavour, a soft but still crusty dough, well balanced with flavours that stand out and blend well. …

H S

I'll be perfectly honest - I resisted going here because all of my friends wouldn't shut up about it and I wanted to irritate them. I've gone half a dozen times now and I must say the place is amazing. Every single thing I've had - breakfast, lunch and dinner has been phenomenal. The space, open space layout, everything. Well done.

Tim Austin

great friendly service, great food, prices decent for a nice place

Adam Mink

Enjoyed a lovely European style breakfast, it was good to the last bite. We were warmly greeted by the Hostess, our server was friendly and prompt with our meal. Definitely recommend eating here!

Kamala Melzack

I’ve been hitting burger month since it was burger week, and we were lucky to get a table on a busy Sunday night of a long weekend. Their feature burger, in my humble opinion, was the best I have had, over any burger, any year. The service and atmosphere is always second to none, it’s at the top of the list for any occasion but......if you are trying to figure out where to get your burger month on......do not sleep on Marzano. Great job by you guys!

Vincenzo Melandri

It was really good, the hostess was very polite, Professional and helpful. Food was very delicious and the ambience is great. I will suggest others to try it once. It was totally awesome.

Shane Lewans

Amazing pizza! Zac have us great service!

Shoolin Saini

Great place with a great vibe. Food was absolutely delicious! Service was great! Highly recommend this place if you are looking for italian place in Nelson

Peter Marino

There were 6 of us, everyone had nothing but compliments about the food. I personally had the Verdura and a side of roasted mushrooms, there were done to perfection. Place was very clean and neat. We had two ladies serve us (Karin & Brits), they were amazingly friendly and fast, the only thing was no one came to check on us after but we didn't need anything regardless, prices were a bit higher but expected for a place like this. Highly recommend this place.

Rick Tayal

Top notch!! Honestly the best breakfast I've had in a while!! Only complaint i had was o felt like the menu was worded a bit weird so i miss undersvćtood what a dish came with as well portions could have been bigger for the price. A side from those in reality small minor complaints the restaurant was stunning!! Lots n lots of space to keep customers safe! The girls serving was extremely nice. Definitely a must go to while visiting Nelson BC!!!!

Joel Nunweiler

Fantastic! A refreshing, unique menu and great pizza.

Wesley Shippey

We came on a Thursday night and the bar was nearly full, so we had to sit at the community tables in the center of the room since we did not have a reservation. The seating at the table was not very comfortable, but the food was delicious.

Nick Harris

Lovely restaurant! Their desserts are so imaginative and unique. They actually have a pastry chef ????The Jasmine Milk Chocolate Dome is served on strawberry jam with whole pecans and flower blossoms. The Tiramisu is also well done and creative.

Designer The Maple House

Food is quite good. Very nice atmosphere.

George Belo

Wonderful service great food. We very much enjoyed our breakfast.

Joelseph

We went there for lunch and asked for a high chair for our kid, instead they brought us kind of a booster seat which had no straps. That's a clear safety issue which they need to address. Food was ok not great and we paid $14 for just fries, unbelievable. I ordered soup and they brought me the wrong soup. In total, not a pleasant experience.

mike k

Wow! This is a gem of a restaurant. Came here during a romantic weekend with my wife after hearing about it from locals. Totally amazing! Would come back on a heartbeat.

Jason Baillie

Food is authentic, and the seating area is quite inviting

Chris Dawson

really good pizza's, and good wine list, drinks are a pricey and stingy

Chris Friedemann

We went here for dinner and did not have a reservation. It was Saturday evening, and they were able to get us a table for 4. That was awesome. I think yoy should make reservations here if seating is important. 2 of us had pizza which was diffrrent than anything in the area. They were great pizzas. Two has spaghetti which was kind of just okay. There seemed to be a problem with just ordering an ordinary coffee though. zthat was kind of strange. Otherwise I would say the service is great, and prices are fair. A lively place...I told friends to give it a try.

Simon Zwick

Amazing pizza and best Negroni I've ever had.

Alireza Shafiei

YES. The service was lovely and fast. Our server was a fabulous communicator. The food!! I only got the burrata pizza but I wish I could have eaten everything on the menu... The crust was chewy but crisp, flavorful. YUM.

Bob W

Great food, very relaxing atmosphere, very friendly staff. What more do you need?

Laura Gallagher

Wow the service and food was excellent. Tasty food and a must try is their ceaser. They have their in-house recipe which is unique. Does not close between lunch and dinner which is convenient as we arrived in town after 2.30 pm and most decent places were closed.

Katherine Lienhard

Great atmosphere! GF pizza crust! And it was so good! Not to mention the GF focaccia bread OMG! We'll be back!

James Adamson

My favorite Italian place in Nelson! Delicious pizza and salads. A good amount of vegetarian and meat dishes. Really good cocktails and great wine selection. I've never had a bad experience here. The chili oil for the pizza is great.

william grandi

One the best tasting food in entire Nelson

Kevin Boese

Great food and service!

Chris Brach

I had a brunch date here. The Eggs Benedict waz great & they serve Mimosas, my favorite! The place had nice atmosphere & the waiter waz friendly & attentive. I definitely want to go here for dinner sometime soon.

H B

Fabulous, fabulous! The Blindman had a business meeting at Marzano's and we were all thoroughly impressed. The service was attentive, the food was delish and the wine...so lovely! Ryan has done a great job of bringing the essential elements together for a superb dining experience! Atmosphere, service and food. Well done! We look forward to impressing more client in the future!

Jordonzo

Great spot for a Neapolitan pizza in the heart of Nelson.

Lucas Billingsley

went for brunch and other than a long wait for our food- delicious breakfast in a beautiful space. they leave their english muffins untoasted which I was intrigued by. but potato rostis? wilted kale? mm. I only wish I could have gotten a reso for dinner the night before so if you ever find yourself in the kootenays- skip not

Julia Cedar

Excellent food, excellent service and kid-friendly. Highly recommend

Phillip Dean

Love having lunch here! Beautiful pizzas and Peroni beer. It's my favorite! ????????

Matt Weber

Great food, relaxed atmosphere make this a true high point for dining in Nelson

Mark OConnor

Great looking place! Count on it more like a bar than a restaurant and you won't regret!

Huss H

We had two meals, and one midday drink here on the weekend. Had the spicy salami pizza the first night. It was incredible. I clobbered the whole thing. Our whole table was super impressed with the food. Thank you! The old fashioneds the bartender whipped up for our wedding party was spectacular, he really put some soul into those drinks! Breakfast was slow Sunday morning, otherwise would have been 5. Thanks again!

Matt Sumner

i love the white sauce pizza more than life

Sebastian Thomson Jagoe

First time eating here. Nice atmosphere and food was good. Will be back!

Alex Cameron

Had an amazing breakfast here, love the decor, more open concept resturant, great service, yummy food. Definatley need to come here for dinner, I've heard its the best pizza in town. Lots of servers and modern feel.

Tyler Farstad

Had pizza. The crust was as it looks like in the pictures and pretty great. The rest was a bit bland though.

Ralf Hoerger

Quick service, delicious food, roomy place, service with a smile and competitively priced food. Not sure what else to want. 5* from me.

Judy Mulloy

Excellent food, fantastic service and reasonable prices. Covid policies in place that staff actually follow through with.

Boilermaker Things

Homemade eggnog is unreal here!!!Thank you Marshall!!!

Myles Peterson

Excellent food and service. The chef John was very attentive to our every need

Les Clarke

The service was amazing, the food was delicious, the atmosphere was beautiful. I'd come back for the delicious pizza anytime

Gaetano Briglio

Great food and service! I liked the soup and pizza combo

Braedan Dale

I love the thin floppy Italian style pizzas. Breakfast is banging as well. It’s fancy comfort food at its finest. I ate there for breakfast and dinner both nights I stayed in Nelson. It would be disrespectful to eat anywhere else.

Jason Maurice

Amazing food and service. Recommended coming here for breakfast, lunch and dinner. No reason to leave. Also Fin was a big help. Made our stay memorable

David Colhoun

Great food and even better service. Would totally recommend to try this place if visiting Nelson.

Matthew Bell

Modern and elegant restaurant decoration. Delicious pizza!!! Would definitely come back!!!

Travis Yost

Great atmosphere and good food. They had a mess up in the dishes 3 times but they finally got it right.

Betty Brousse

Great food and great service!!

Pouria Mehrabi

Love everything about this place. Food and staff are excellent.

Mabel McCormick

Amazing food and great wine!

Cecile Pan

10/10 experience! Cocktails were innovative and delicious. Decor is stunning. Staff was accommodating (we first sat at the harvest table and later, they moved us to a table when one opened up). Really friendly bartender (didn't catch his name). I had the feature pizza and it was INCREDIBLE.

Stephanie Campbell

Very nice atmosphere, clean and modern yet comfortable. Had lots of starters which were perfect for sharing between 4ppl. Wine list was good, could have used a recommendation given so many wines I haven't seen before. I googled our pick to make sure it would be to our liking, and it was. Meals were really good and portion size just right. Not sure about the charred broccoli or the risotto though, not the best.

Martynas Gruodis

Dine in

Dom Poesiat

Friendly service, excellent food and a great modern design.

April Telek-Campbell

We had the most amazing time at this place. We had pizza, salad, soup, everything was very very good, but the real highlight is the way the server approached the kids orders: she proposed bringing them a ball of pizza dough to play with (a 50 cent investment really, absolutely brilliant!) and pushed their orders through the kitchen with priority, so they had play, food, more play while the adults ate with comfort and relax. We ended up being in no hurry since the kids were entertained so we ordered a dessert as well, which turned out to be nothing short of excellent. Bringing kids to a restaurant is usually a somewhat daunting task and can end up being the low point of the day during vacations sometimes, especially if you ran late for it and kids are tired and cranky. In some places you get entertainment for the kids, but usually the experience is not as good for the parents, or the food isn't really good, it tends to be a short blanket: you cover your head and uncover your feet kinda deal, you never get everything.. Except at Marzano. Food is outstanding, decor is delightful and airy, pricing is not cheap but competitive given the high quality, service is absolutely SUPERIOR. This restaurant exceeded any reasonable expectation. Bravo.

Boss Sales

We left Vancouver 8:45 in the morning and arrived nelson @6pm without any food stopping. I was hungry and physically feeling dizzy when we walked into marzano. After we explained our long trip to the staff, she immediately sat us down in …

Teresa Berno

Every bite was an incredible one here!

Dave Pettinger

Amazing food and service. Was there with a large 20+ group and they were amazing. We had 8 small children with ages ranging from 2 to 8 and they let them play and spin their own pizza dough. The staff there are top shelf and the food is delicious. Can't say enough.

mike miller

Awesome pizza and wine!

Chris MacArthur

Marzano is a suprise, a pleasant one that is. Food is very good and the service was excellent

Trevor Moore

Absolutely amazing food and drinks. A little pricey, but not too bad. Highly recommended.

Been 3 days... still waiting for that call back... Showed up and was told the wait was 20 minutes for a table for my wife and I. We left our number, and well after an hour of waiting outside we decided it was time to move on. We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Thors Pizza. Never did get that call for the table...

This place does live upto its good reviews. Amazing food and service. Definitely a must go if you visit Nelson

Marco Maccario

Awesome food. The red pepper soup with tuna was incredibly good. The lamp pizza very tasty. Not too much gunk you could taste all the elements of the pizza

Dana Westermark

Our favorite restaurant in Nelson. Food, setting and service are 10/10!

Dey Stewart

One of the top breakfast restaurants in Nelson and definitely the best pizza place in Nelson!

Nick Barclay

Amazing pizza, great service.

Farzad Sharif

Top notch Italian food!

This restaurant is great! The food is delicious. My friend and I shared a pasta dish and a pizza, and there was plenty for a full meal and leftovers. The atmosphere is very nice - aesthetically pleasing, modern, nice music, open layout. We got to the restaurant around 6 and were immediately seated. The wait staff was very personable and attentive; I asked our waitress a few questions about the menu and she answered all of them with ease. I would definitely eat at this restaurant again.

Amazing as usual. One of the best restaurants in downtown Nelson. A must visit and very convenient location.

Wade Maves

Best pizza in town, gluten free bases are amazing

Good service and coffee . Bacon was a little over done and chewy. The eggs were good and the plate rectangular.

Mark Turner

Yum yum yum - woodfired pizza and other types of entrees for every craving Great service too!

Steve Mota

Very good service. Server was observant and unobtrusive - didn't keep asking "How is everything". Food was attractively served. Delicious, good selection, not overdone. Ambiance muted, not loud invasive music. Clean washroom. Prices inline.

Jordain Brulotte

Nice spot to grab breakfast. Waitress and Cook were happy to adjust my meal to make it easier for me to eat (just had dental surgery). Food was great. Thank you.

Marina Kaden

Great food, nice atmosphere.

Dinner

I loved the atmosphere here. Interior design was impressive and the seats comfortable. I ordered caprese salad and blueberry moctail. They weren't very good. Roasted almonds didn't go well with the salad and the tomatoes were not ripe. The pizza looked good. I would go again to try other menu.

Daniel Chen

Delicious food and great service!

Sasha Davis

The gnocchi here is amazing! Lots of interesting flavours for pastas and dishes, and the pizzas are so light and crispy. Really nice ambience for a more formal dining experience compared to other restaurant chains.

Tyler Coe

Amazing coffee, great food, beautiful space

Amanda Zucaro

Everything on their menu is worth trying. So tasteful and amazing. A must go in Nelson for sure!

Karen Read

Authentic, Italian-style pizza with a thin, bubbly, and flavourful crust, and tasty, quality ingredients. (Don't expect one of those over-the-top, late night binge pizzas with the ranch dipping sauce. Please, no.) I also love the salads and pastas. One of the recent features was a pasta with short rib and gorgonzola butter. Outstanding! Will have to try one of the dinner entrées, next. The breakfast menu offers refreshing options. Marzano has an open and friendly atmosphere and is a great place to meet friends or for a casual date night.

Alnoor

Horrible experience. You phone to order the “house burger” which is on multiple menus online. They make you a chicken burger that’s more expensive. “We only have one burger “ was the their comment well why would you sell me a burger you don’t have then? Will never be back

Sherry McMullen

Dine in…

Mitchell Despins

Loved the burger of the month

Jack Hannebery

Great pizza, great wine list and excellent service. What more could you ask for?

I gave this a 2 instead of 5 for dinner only because we were told that we had to vacate our table after having dinner and drinks as the table was reserved for another group. This was only after being seated for 90 minutes. A 90 minute turnover is unreasonable...if the table had a limited sitting time why weren't we told when we where seated. Food was very good .. In fact I gave the Pizza chef a tip because but was the best pizza ever.. then when I returned to my table I was told we had to leave..I guess the business is just to greedy trying to create table turnover @ 90 minutes. Make sure if you want a relaxing even with friends you ask for a table with a minimum 2.5 hour turnover. Updated based on breakfast experience. I gave this a one out of five for the following reasons. Not enough staff...only one waitress..had to politely ask for our first coffee...kitchen slow turning out food...took over an hour to complete breakfast... potatoes rosti soggy not crisp. Sometimes A&W would have been a better choice. Quicker and consistently good bacon and eggs breakfast.

Nikki

Full house on a Friday night. Cool layout, with a bar, chef’s table around the pizza prep area and wood-burning pizza oven, long elevated table, and traditional seating. Creative menu, featuring several pastas, entree salads and numerous pizzas. Food is closer to what you’d find in Italy than the more conventional red-sauced dishes in most North American Italian restaurants. Certainly would give the restaurant an A for effort on the innovative menu (excepting the wine by the glass list, which is lacking in both inspiration and choice) and a B/B+ on the preparation and execution. My carpaccio was delicious (tender, flavorful meat, crispy homemade crostini) except for the tonno sauce, which had too much mustard and not enough tonno (tuna) - also seemed on the sweet side compared to others I’ve had. My ‘macaroni’ was decent, with plentiful and flavorful chicken, but I thought the pasta was cooked too al dente, that it was overwhelmed by the ‘pork’ (sausage?), and underwhelmed by its sauce; my poached egg was also cold for some reason, which escapes me in terms of how. Anyway, the pizzas looked good and I’d probably go for one of those the next time. Worth a try.

Jennifer McNeil

Lovely place with modern design kitchen. Very friendly staff. Love the Kaslo toast, it’s my favourite!

Troy Pennock

Fantastic authentic Napoletano pizza! I travel to Italy serval times a year and they brought the taste of Italy to Nelson, especially by using so many local ingredients. A "must go" for sure. Well done, bravo!

keith bridger

Amazing atmosphere, beautiful styling, and the best Italian food in town. 5 stars.

kuwar k

Some of the best food in Nelson. If you haven't already try some of their food!

Stryder Scott

Food was over prized and not as tasty as I would have hoped. Service was quite okay, but the waiter did not know the finer points of his profession. Pulling plates away while the other person was still eating, pulling away appetizer plates so that the cutlery landed unceremoniously on the table, forgetting to order a side order and - after being reminded - bringing it when we were finished eating, and then still charging full prize for it. Nice atmosphere, but again, the food left much to be desired.

Ross Naka

I had a birthday breakfast with a friend this week. We "veganized" one of the breakfast dishes, substituting mushrooms for egg. Our waitress was informative regarding how the food is prepared. The food was delicious, the portion generous. We would definitely come again.

Jolene Walker

Outstanding pizza and service!

Oxana P

NELSON resident, watched the workers coming and going, heard the buzz, got back in town a few days ago and took the wife... What a bummer. We were expecting a classy authentic Italian experience, but might as well have been in a cafeteria. The staff wore jeans and slouched about like part-timers, and kids crawled on the floor and stood on their seats. The salad was fine. The spaghetti and meatballs was underwhelming and served luke warm. The place was loud and the atmosphere was surprisingly flat, given the obvious investment. The tiles are nice and the pizza oven is a marvel, but the whole package is nothing special. No charm.

Shawn Herzog

The food was magnificent, the kitchen appeared to be in order, and the staff were classy & friendly, but the table service was unfortunately very slow. Perhaps this joint is understaffed for dinner time right now. I would definitely return though... The beet gnocchi, warm olives, and cannelloni were terrific!

Chris Leeson

We eat out a lot locally... and in our opinion this is hands down the best restaurant in town. Which says a lot because for the size of our city we have some great food! But this is just a bit above and beyond the rest ❤️

Kelly Davison

Absolutely delicious food.Excellent environment, friendly service, great menu choices and really decent food.

Andrew Smith

Truly special dining experience...perfect atmosphere, great food...just fantastic in every way...grazie mille xoxo

faith villanis

Dining solo. Upon arrival staff were quick to greet me. I sat at the bar. Aussie bartender was quick to take my order and mix me a drink. I had the house Caesar, one of the best I’ve tasted. Ordered a cheese pizza, man was it good. Service was friendly and efficient.

cam Gall

Good local beers on tap, great atmosphere and friendly, attentive staff.

Travis Giesler

Amazing burger! Juicy flavour without the soggyness!

Britty

Bright and modern. Very good shrimp pizza

Darlene Jones

Service = immediate, frequent and professional without being obtrusive. Immaculate clean and tasteful decor. Food= top notch with reasonable prices and the coffee was great!

Amarjeet Singh

Prob the best pizza in the planet, no joke

Helen Singleton

Had dinner here while in Nelson in Aug 2021. Probably one of the best thin crust gourmet pizzas we've tasted. All of our pizzas were perfectly cooked with the right amount of sauce and toppings. We had the Prosciutto, Verdura and Chicken Al Forno. While all 3 were very good, the chicken was probably our favourite. You must also try the beef carpaccio as a starter, it was fantastic. They also had some nice craft cocktails and the Tiramisu Mousse was a delicious way to finish the meal.

Ryan Walley

Best pizza I've had in a long time. Great atmosphere inside, very Italian/European vibe inside. The oven is cool to see, they're open for coffee and breakfast too.

Chelsey McKellar

Really great night! The cooking techniques were perfect. The chicken had beautiful crispy medium brown skin and the meat was super moist. Also very good quality meat. The squid was also cooked just right. And the Dark chocolate cake finished the meal off right with really flavorful rose gelato. Our server Claire was very pleasant and added a nice touch to the meal. The only suggestion would be slightly more salt to bring out a little more flavor. However top notch and we wish you all the best.

Bradley Moore

Incredible restaurant - love it! Never known a restaurant where ALL the staff are so friendly & nice, combined with the atmosphere being so great. Breakfast, lunch, dinner - all such good food! Can’t recommend enough! Britt, Mika, Tia, Erin - all made for a great time!

Kendall Thornton

Cameron Bond

This place is great, everything on the menu is delicious and the service is the best in town

James Haight

The service here was lovely but it seemed the dishes are hit and miss. I ordered a beef dish that was fantastic but my other two friends didn't have as good of an experience.

Chad Sommerfeld

The food and service was pretty good for the Kootenays. Very modern interior.

Max Glanz

Great pizza and a beautiful space.

Ah mazing. The service, the atmosphere, the food. Oh my, the food.... Simply fantastic!

Jeff Hagel

Excellent food. Quick service. Reasonable price. Need I say more.

Caitlin Sproul

Marzano’s tonight was outstanding! Amidst COVID-19, they’ve done all the right things...cleanliness-top notch and protocols in place to make everyone feel safe but also welcome and comfortable. The overall ambiance is relaxed but novel, freshness in everything from the decor and staff to the fresh herbs housed right in the restaurant! Food is like from right out of the garden onto the table...amAzing! We had pizza, caprese salad, olives, gnocchi, pasta with a tarragon pesto and yes...dessert! Not one detail was missed from the tender gnocchi, the crispy crust of our duck pizza was dipped into a zippy chili oil with the perfect heat and tangy-ness! One problem...we live 6hours from Nelson BC...but, the drive is going to be worth it and hey, we’ll work up an appetite for that delicious semi-fredo dessert!

Korby Lodoen

Great restaurant, good staff

Suzanne Parpinello

Very friendly staff. Beautifully designed space. The food wasn’t revolutionary but it wasn’t trying to be. It was very solid all around and there’s probably something on the menu for everyone here. Worth a visit.

Brent Forder

Beautiful environment, lovely staff, awesome food!

肖文

Amazing authentic Italian cuisine with a great atmosphere!

Bess Giannakakis

Food was delicious and our server was friendly and knowledgeable.

George Salivaras

I'll start by saying the service, was phenomenal, attentive and informative. I found the food however, lackluster. I ordered a basic classic breakfast, my potatoes were both overdone and undercooked, my ham tasted purely of vinegar, and the eggs to top it all off, were greasy and over salted. I'm not meaning to make this an attack at the restaurant, just my findings, I'm sure it was just an off day for the cooks.

Justine Yiu

We had dinner and breakfast at Marzano while staying in BW hotel next door. Food was really good both times! I loved the interior design too!

Grant Kuropatwa

The food was excellent and the portions were really large. I couldn't finish my Forno Chicken sandwich, although I wanted to. My partner had the burger and enjoyed it very much. Our server was very attentive. I would gladly go again.

Nathan Wheaton

The squid appy was outstanding. Best I've ever had. Fabulous decor, very comfy, excellent fare.

Vicki Beitschat

Excellent food, excellent service, amazing gluten free and vegan pizza / pasta!

Dave Bond

A must if you’re in Nelson. The new renovations are open and inviting. We had a few meals and everything wAs top notch. The staff were all wonderful and welcoming. Prices were reasonable for the quality. Devin at the front bar made me the best cosmos. We will be back when we come to Nelson. Thanks so much everyone !!!

Wolfgang Osl

Excellent food and prompt service. Shared a pizza and a burger.

Cory Berndt

This, is the best pizza you can find in Nelson.

Cole Baker

Excellent food selection, patio is large and cozy.

j murphy

Great Food! Great Service! Great Atmosphere! Make this a stop when in Nelson!

Mandy Mcleod

Very good food fresh pizza and popular most of the day

Cole Barker

Modern italian. Thin crust pizza was very tasty. Mixed green salad was ok but didn't need the egg. Good real italian style meatballs. And if there is a wine special, order a bottle because its probably a great wine.

Rishabh Sharma

Modern stylish decor. Friendly service. Trout was very good. Spicy salami pizza had excellent thin crust base, but was actually too spicy (for somebody who really likes spicy)... too many jalapeños. Recommended.

Annie Bojinglejangles

Very classy joint. All of their menu options are very unique from my experience. Many taste profiles going on. Very nice selection of booze. Really nice and super busy staff. Myself and the crew had a great time.

Chris Goggins

This is Marc Mc talking, so, the decor and lay out including the back room was super nice. The service, excellent. Pasta however, was too eldente, and not enough sauce. The menu, for being Italian was limited. Didn't try the pizza, but maybe that is the saving grace.

Excellent food!

Bob McCreath

Gorgeous restaurant. Excellent service. Delicious food.
