Amazing take-out dishes & soups, with the freshest possible seafood variety from the shop. Clam chowder was amazing, with chunks of fresh seafood in it, and the ahi tuna poke was very fresh, with decent amount & price. I would strongly recommend this take-out if you are looking for a quick, healthy bite!
Great lunch options, tasty made-to-order bowls with fish of choice!
No frills, good price, straight flavor. Simple atmosphere and set up. Magnificent food. I bought the Salmon Burger which came with a salad. The price was excellent. The burger was excellent. They even had a table with spices. Ok! p.s. I love these people for what they have down to cuisine
I have tried a lot of different lunch spots. I would eat their food every single day. It was the freshest! So many different fresh fish dishes and other seafood items, mixed in healthy bowls, tacos, or sandwiches. Big fan, they were consistently really solid. My favourites were the miso halibut or sablefish bowls with an extra side of shrimp! Food 10/10 Atmosphere N/A take out Service 10/10 Value 10/10 Extremely rare that I give tens but this is well deserved.
I’m visiting for a month in Vancouver since last week and it’s my first seafood local meal. They are very kind and all meals I ordered were great. So delicious. I want to go this place again before I go back to my country.
Nell's kitchen is a hidden gem. It's as close to a literal analogy as possible as it is tucked by the window of a fresh fish store. It was the first location where fish burgers and sandwiches are not dry. Albeit, 16 dollars for a salmon burger, the price, from my experience as an avid food consumer, is justified. The freshness of the fish as well as how recently the food was prepped is reflected not only in the flavours, but the texture as well. Nell was polite, concise, and quick with her orders. She was manning the kitchen by herself but went through the short line of customers with ease. A must-visit location from anyone living in Greater Vancouver. I stopped by as I was in need of a lunch and was passing by, but it is a trek I am willing to make from Coquitlam.
We came here for a late lunch. Their food is fresh, simple, & delish. There are chairs available outside. Why not enjoy your food by the ocean. There are plenty of benches and picnic tables along Ambleside. They’re located right inside the Village Fish & Oyster Market off 15th and Marine Drive in West Vancouver. Lunch’s from 11 am to 3 pm. Food: 5/5 - tasty fresh seafood. Lots of fresh and healthy ingredients. If you like halibut and ahi tuna, go for the Halibut Tom Yum over a bed of rice or the Ahi Tuna Tataki bowl. Ambience: 3/5 - seating outside but best to enjoy it at the beach. Service: 5/5 great service & friendly staff Free parking on the street.
I was in West Van area and decided to check Nell's Kitchen. It was the best bowls I have ever tried. Extremely delicious and healthy. I loved every single bowl and it was the best clam chowder I have ever tried! So bad I live pretty far from this area! Thank you Nell for your delicious bowls.
Fresh fish cooked well with fresh salads and vegetables. Simple but perfect.
Amazing food, you won t be disappointed! Everything is so yummy!
Amazing take out food at a fair price and that is a two block walk to a perfect beach spot to enjoy it.
Always fresh and delicious! Best option around the area! Thank you Nell :-)
The salmon burgers are perfect, highly reccomend

Amazing food!! Easily one of my favourite spots for lunch in West Van
Nells kitchen is the best, fresh seafood lunch spot in town. The freshness, quickness and fun energy, makes it for a a great time, even better amazing food
Amazing food, never disappoints!
Great hidden gem
Absolutely delicious! First time getting food from Nell s today and will definitely be going back. I had the Salmon Greek Bowl and it was amazing. Looking forward to tying other options.
This place is amazing! A small take-out counter in a local fish shop. The food is super fresh and tasty. The first time I tried the halibut glory bowl, and the 2nd time I tried a salmon bowl + shrimp tom yum style which was delicious. I may be stuck on that combo for a while. It was about $5 to add 5-6 shrimp, which was totally worth it to me. I highly recommend a fish + shrimp tom yum bowl. The chef Nell is super nice as well. I ll be visiting Nell s again soon!
This place is a hidden gem! The salmon burger is absolutely delicious!
Chose Nell s kitchen as my birthday lunch to introduce it to my friends. We ordered two tomyum bowls, a prawn taco bowl, a miso sable fish bowl, and the clam chowders. All bowls were amazing. Fish was so fresh, cooked perfectly, flavours balanced and the chowder was so chunky and flavourful. A little extra touch for the birthday girl made a lovely surprise. Thank you Nell! Ate it on a beach bench in the sunshine. Couldn t have been more perfect! Love it here.
I ve tried both the tuna poke bowl and the sable fish bowl. Both were amazing and I cannot wait to try more. I just wish it was open more days a week;)
A great spot to get fresh (and mostly wild) fish. Ive been to many seafood restaurants and this by far is one of the best ones Ive ever been to. Delicious food prepared with love and care. 100% recommend this place.
This is our go to place for a good healthy value lunch. Defintley recomend if you have not been. Though wish they where open after hours and on the weekend :) but some of the best things are the things we have to waite for. Dietary restrictions: Greate for Diabetics and Celiac
I ordered a halibut dish, taste great and good portion.
My all time favourite lunch spot! So many delicious options! So healthy & delicious! I could eat Nell s kitchen every single day!!!
The everything is delicious, the salads are the absolute best!
Sooo damn good.
I can t get Poké anywhere else! It s simply the best.
I ordered a halibut burger and a Boston clam chowder. I can t say enough good things about Nell s Kitchen. The fish is always fresh as it s located in a fish store and the recipes are always spot on. The bowls are very well balanced and are a great healthy meal. Even the coleslaw has the extra ingredient or two that make it special. Very well thought out and executed menu.
Ordered two miso bowls with halibut. One was missing the mushrooms and the halibut portions were very small. But it was tasty and fresh.
Customer service is lacking. Nell seemed impatient and annoyed as I ordered a salad to go. Apparently you should order online instead of walking in. I won t be back.
Had the Tom Yum Bowl with fresh Halibut and it was incredible! I dont know who Tom is but the bowl was definitely Yum. 10/10. Even Gordon Ramsey would be blown away!
Found a fantastic restaurant before we went to the beach. All the food we had was very well done and full of flavor. Looking forward to coming back sometime soon.
Sablefish miso butter.
Everytime Im in west van I eat at nells. Great friendly staff and awesome take out.
Hidden Gem! Would come here everyday if I could.
Every single dish was amazing!!!!
I love the Tuna Poke bowl so much. Given the chance I would eat it every day.
Best salmon hamburger ever, people its so nice and friendly, I definitely recommend this awesome small place.
Fresh, tasty and DELICIOUS! My only regret is not getting an extra side of protein. We had the Tom Yum and Miso with salmon. Will definitely be back!
The size of the fish was a joke. The salmon burger had a sliver of salmon - couldnt have been thinner. And the sablefish and halibut bowl had the smallest piece of fish. We were stunned to see how small it was when we opened the bowl. For dishes btw $17-19 for take out that is of this quality, Id rather go to a proper restaurant.
Highly recommended by all our staff! Do yourself a favor and go to Nells Kitchen for The Ambleside Shrimp Croissant! The croissants are baked daily :)
Sensational sablefish glory bowls today Nell!!! Thanks so much.
Consistently delicious!
Having recently moved back to West Vancouver Im delighted to discover some of the gems that didnt exist when I lived here 12 years ago. Nells Kitchen is a dream for the fresh vegetable and seafood bowl lunches. Today I had the miso bowl with sablefish and it was the best ever.
I ordered the tom yum bowl with halibut, thanks to another reviewer, and it was absolutely delicious! The flavours and fresh ingredients blended so well together. Highly recommend and will definitely go back on my next trip to Vancouver!
SOOOO good!!!! We got the sablefish miso and halibut taco. It was filling, light, and flavourful. The trifecta of lunch bowls.
(Take out only)Ordered Salmon Glory for lunch. Salmon tasted delicious and serve with vegetables too. Very affordable for the quality of food you getting. Good customer service.There is also a park nearly which has a super nice view.
I enjoyed my halibut Tom yum bowl sooo much! Fresh ingredients. Will be going back for more soon!
Nell s is a great place for a fresh, healthy, and delicious lunch! My partner and I got the ahi poke bowl and the halibut glory grilled bowl. Both were above our expectations, definitely coming back here again!
I found Nell s just after she opened as I worked across the street and I think I was in there for lunch two or three times a week. The food is amazing. I can recommend the Miso butter bowl with shrimp or fish, prawn taco bowl and the poke bowl. Honestly anything on the menu is delicious. I cannot wait to make it back and have it again soon!
A great place to grab a healthy, well prepared and balanced meal on the go featuring fresh seafood. Part of one of the best fish markets in the city. A long time family run business that I am happy to patronize.
Look no further than Nell s kitchen for the freshest, most delicious and satisfying seafood lunches.
So fresh and amazing! I ll be coming here everyday for my lunch!!!
So tasty and hearty that turns your frowns upside down Good portion! So fresh and love their homemade sauces!
healthy, and tasty all things you want for lunch, or i take mine home for and have for my evening meal. Nell is the very best!
The absolute BEST spot for fresh and delicious lunches. Everything was made fresh to order and was so good. This is an all time favourite spot of mine and I will go out of my way to get to West Van and visit Nells Kitchen. My personal favourite is the halibut burger with coleslaw. YUM!!!
We stop here when ever we can. Fresh, delicious and creative menu. We just love that you can go eat at the beach or take it with you and feel healthy and awesome afterwards. The quality of the fish is outstanding. I buy some frozen crab cakes too when there! Enjoy. Highly highly recommend this place.
Really friendly staff!
