Lord Nelson

This place is a real hidden gem in Burlington and the exterior is very deceptive as there are no windows… just a sign next to a door… but once you enter you know you are in for a treat.
The food is great. If you order the Caesar salad, the preparation is an elaborate process that takes place on a cart beside your table. The appetizers are all good as are the mains. The soup appetizers are amazing. I have always gone with a fish option for my main and it has consistently not disappointed.
The wine list is comprehensive and the desserts and coffees that follow are also good.
Price point is relatively high. I would recommend this place for romantic dinners, special occasions, and business lunches.
Side note: the interior of the restaurant feels like you are in a dining room on a ship!
Finally, how could you ever go wrong with a name like Lord Nelson?!?

This was by far one of the best meals I have had in a very long time! The scallops were life changing, the table side ceaser salad was amazing, and the waitstaff was nothing short of exquisite.
Yes, the Lord nelson is a little high priced, however it is well worth the experience.

Very nice place to bring your significant other for dinner. Great service and great food. The Portsmouth seafood chowder was amazing. I also loved my tomahawk rib steak. And yes it is a bit pricy but we really enjoyed the dinner.

My family has been coming here for special occasions for years. I enjoyed this food in the womb (mom was 9 months pregnant and coming here for dinner).
Nick is always around, ensuring everyone is having the best time possible. If you’re especially lucky, he’ll make your table side caesar salad personally. Order the caesar salad.
Chowder, to die for. Oysters Rockefeller are excellent (and I’m usually a traditionalist when it comes to oysters).
The steak is consistently on point, as is their lobster. This is what a steakhouse is supposed to be.
Great service, great food, good wine selection, and a nice atmosphere. This is one place I recommend to anyone coming to town, looking for a excellent meal.

Not as good as expected. food is OK.

Excellent food ! Frendly staff ! Filet mignon to die for. Before I came here I had no idea ceasar salad can be so delicious.

I’ve been going to this restaurant for a very long time. The food is super consistent. Their veal is to die for. The Portsmouth chowder is delicious and meal unto itself. The make the caesar salad beside you and it incredible as well. They have increased their wine menu nicely. The wait staff are all professionals and take great care of you. Nick the owner is always around making sure is going well If you order the veal listen carefully and you will hear them hand tenderizing the meat! I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and will be back time and time again!
