Urban was definitely one of the best restaurants we have been during our trip in New Zealand. Everything was amazing and the staff was great. We loved our dinner there and we repeated two nights in a row. Definitely a must go if you are around Nelson.
A Modern Culinary Haven, Urban Oyster Bar & Eatery
Urban Oyster is a Nelson gem! Exceptional food, diverse beer selection, and a vibrant night-out atmosphere. The modern decor adds to the allure, and the open kitchen lets you witness culinary magic. A must-visit for any Nelson visitor!
Wow, amazing food. It's very tasty. Chefs awesome. Friendly service and clean. Recommend pork sliders and beef tacos. Oysters from Marlborough Sounds were big and fresh. All food freshly cooked. Fantastic.
Amazing food - all 4 dishes we had (ceviche tostadas, duck tacos, market fish and the tiramisu) were the best meal we had so far in NZ. Cocktails were amazing too. Service was good - we had no reservation but managed to get a table as walk ins. It filled up pretty quickly.
Thinking of going again in
An absolute gem of a spot. If you’re ever in Nelson, give it a go. We had the most delightful dinner, the service was great, chefs were friendly, food was absolutely amazing, can’t fault it.
We were welcomed and provided the best service by Vitalija. She provided excellent recommendations and had full knowledge of all the meals and drinks. We are travelling NZ at the moment and appreciate the service provided and has been the best so far . From entree to shared tapas, it did not disappo
Great place for dinner! We ordered the fresh oysters (natural and nahm jim sauce), market fish crudo, Vietnamese beef tartare, bbq dark breast taco and lamb wrap! It was all pack full of flavours and freshness
This place was definitely one of the top eateries I've been to. Excellent service and excellent menu choice and I was very impressed with the drinks range as they had a variety of cocktails that I had never seen before which was epic to see! Food was divinne. Would highly rate this one as a must go.
Beautiful oysters and food was amazing! But just the duty manager was not very nice, they mischarged us for one more dozen oysters, the duty manager refund us but not in a nice way. Great oysters though, we enjoyed.
Absolutely love this spot for a spectacular drink and meal. Food like you’ve never had before. Genuine 5 star quality with fresh local ingredients that make you love every season in Nelson for what they have to offer.
Drinks menu is always a hit with fresh and exciting ingredients and concoctions.
Absolutely loved it. The atmosphere was great. Dimed lights, chilled vibe, music. Service with a smile, efficient and friendly. The food was epic. It all came out in a timely manner too. I chose Oysters with Nahm Jim, Vietnamese Beef Tartare, Duck Tacos and Tiramasu. I love Nahm jim flavours and the
Loved this place! The food, the staff and the cocktails were superb! Very well looked after for someone with food allergies as well. Highly recommend!
Came here for my brother's after graduation dinner. Food was superb. I personally wish the portion was a bit bigger but thats because it was so delicious I wanted more. I think this is a place to drink and nibble and not so much as a dinner place. Would definitely come again.
Had another delicious meal at Urban recently. This place has such a great vibe, music, ambience, service and food. Lots of different sharing platters to choose from. It's another Nelson must try, will leave you coming back for more 😋
Food cuisine is more innovative and has a different taste. The taste is very good.
But the taste is generally salty. More suitable for pairing with beers. Need to drink a lot of water to neutralize the salty food.
It is recommended that the restaurant reduce the saltiness and it will be more sui
Absolutely delicious! Everything we ordered simply great! Service was also super friendly and quick. Definitely a must-see.
The portions have been designed for sharing, but they can adjust them to the size of your group.
Fantastic eatery in Nelson. Came here for a late lunch in a Thursday and the lovely staff were more than happy to help with the menu and our large group. It was awesome to be able to sit at the kitchen and watch the chefs work their magic. Each dish that came out had unique flavors and contrasted we
Went here in orange light one night on our honeymoon, staff are lovely & chatty, and will help with the menu.
What they don't tell you is the cabbage with kimchi butter is not only the best value menu item, but also insanely delicious and perfectly cooked 🤩
The pork belly sliders & duck breast tac
Fantastic food. Interesting with no pretence and topped off with a tasting plate (paddle) of beers. Service was friendly and efficient with staff making sure we had a great night. (The samba popcorn was to die for... get in while they still serve it)
