The Styx Nelson

We had an incredible experience with the friendly and knowledgeable service. The food was beautifully presented and the flavors were equally impressive. We've definitely found our go-to spot while we're here. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

A wonderful way to end the day in Nelson. The food was delicious, and the service was pleasant, attentive, and efficient. I enjoyed the seafood chowder, while one of my companions had pizza, and the others opted for mussels and steak. It was lovely to sit and enjoy the view of the water. The meal was the perfect way to cap off the day.

Recently, my husband and I moved to Nelson, and for his birthday, we wanted to treat him to a nice dinner. The Styx Kitchen Bar came highly recommended by friends and family. When I looked at the menu, I found that there wasn’t anything I could eat, so I reached out via email to see if they could prepare a salad for me. Although salads are something I typically avoid due to my strict dietary restrictions, they were incredibly accommodating and offered me a variety of ingredients to create a delicious meal. It was a bit overwhelming in the best way, as I felt a sense of normalcy at the table—enjoying a substantial dish rather than just a side salad lacking protein. I wholeheartedly give The Styx Kitchen Bar my highest praise and will absolutely return in the near future!

Great view, friendly staff and one of the best Seafood Chowders I've had in a long time well seasoned and a good variety of seafood. The portions are very large so if you see small vs large you're pretty safe with the small.

The place is very comfortable and generous. For the amount of staff compared to number of customers, it took a while for someone to come over and seat us and we were served and checked on by different people for the same things. But the staff were very polite and helpful. Their portions are generous and arrived on time. We loved the coconut crumbed tiger prawns, the rib eye steak and pork belly. The fish of the day could've used a bit more blue cheese in the sauce and the chilli chicken pasta didn't have as much of a chilli punch. The highlight of the night was the rosemary creme brulee it is to die for and we were left licking the bowl clean! Overall we were looked after and fed well after a long day of travel.
