NELLIE’S FOOD LOUNGE opened in June 2022 in Salem, NJ. The restaurant is named after late father and chef Darnell, whose culinary skills and loving spirit inspired the restaurant’s creation.

Nellie’s offers a unique blend of Soul Food & good vibes with our signature dishes. Here, it’s “All About The Sauce,” which allows for diners to add sauce flavors to each dish. Our top sellers include our signature Soul Bowls and Main Thing Platters.

The restaurant is currently operated by its owner, Brittany Smith.
