Diner Reviews
  • "Food and service were great. Very noisy downstairs."
    Dined on 7/26/2014
  • "My husband and I had a vey enjoyable experience at Nectar this past weekend. The food was delicious, service was impeccable and the atmosphere was lovely. My biggest complaint was that the menu covers were filthy! It was obvious that the menu covers have been used for years as they were stained and greasy. I had to wash my hands after our server took our order (and took away the menus). If management can update the menus, then the restaurant will be perfect."

  • "I was looking forward to this meal all week and wasn't disappointed. Our English waiter did a great job. Dishes were interesting and well-executed. Pricey but worth it. Would definitely return."

  • "Consistently great food and service to match. High energy and sound level not to my taste, but easily tolerated because of the food and service."
    Dined on 7/22/2014
  • "There were three of us in our party. The food was wonderful, nicely presented and flavorful. Our waiter was attentive without being obnoxious. Will be back."

  • "The concierge for parking needs some watching. Just a note of caution to check your car before leaving. The whole dining, service, seating, food experience was great. The parking concierge was quick and efficient and because of that I tipped higher than I would normally. Got up early in the morning after to do a store run and saw that my car was contacted by something, not sure what. Luckily it appears that it is not rubbed through the top/clear coat and I should be able to rub it out. But that's a PIA. I know this was not there as I had been wiping down the car all week due to the rain, etc to keep it sharp."

  • "Dinner on a Saturday night & were first time diners. Great food, excellent quality taste and ingredients; I ordered the braised short ribs and my friend got scallops & mushroom risotto; both delicious. However, the portion size of the food was very different for the entrees. My ribs were a good size and came with potatoes but the scallop entree only came with 4 scallops and a small amount of risotto & that entree was more expensive than mine. For the price I think the scallop entree should have been a larger; I gave my friend some of my ribs. No bread or anything else included with the meal. We both ordered dessert, mine was the Valhrona chocolate torte, outstanding! Restaurant is very noisy and the music is loud & awful, dance music."

  • "Hands down the best restaurant on the Main Line. Food is consistently great. Service is amazing. We can't wait to go back."
    Dined on 7/10/2014
  • "It's been a while since we were there for dinner but have enjoyed lunches. It was a perfect celebration. We shared a salad. The greens tasted as if they had just been picked. I had the soft shells and my husband the chicken and shrimp. We were treated to dessert in honor of my birthday. The soft shells were amazing. Service, reception and food all excellent. Thank you Nectar for a lovely evening."
    Dined on 7/8/2014
  • "A great dining experience in Berwyn, PA, but limited selection if you choose not to eat meat/fish. Lovely presentation and appearance, good taste, some exotic selections, great sushi choices."
    Dined on 7/7/2014
  • "We booked a table at Nectar using Open Table. In the comment section, I mentioned that it was our anniversary, and requested a table away from any wait stations. Sometimes you wonder if the comment section is read - well at Nectar - they do read them. The hostess welcomed us, acknowledged our anniversary and saved us a wonderful, romantic corner table. The waitstaff was attentive, but not overly so. The food was fabulous, as were the drinks. The bartender was able to make my husband a daiquiri from scratch (not many can) - not blended - it was perfect! For dessert, we ordered donuts with dipping sauce. They came with a lit candle and were complimentary. We will return again and again."

  • "Menue selection was great, very diverse, appetizers were awesome"
    Dined on 7/2/2014
  • "This is not your parents' Asian restaurant. With two vegetarians in the family, we often have difficulty finding a restaurant with options for everyone, so were pleased to find that Nectar offers wonderful choices for all. The edamame dumplings are not to be missed (even the meat-eaters love them), and the crunchy tempura vegetable sushi roll is a welcome change from the cucumber rolls that are often a vegetarian's only choice. My picky meat-eating son loves the pork dumplings and the grilled filet mignon. While it's bit on the pricy side, Nectar does not disappoint."

  • "Fun atmosphere, interesting decor, professional service, very good food, generous portions - but expensive and drinks were not as good as they sounded on the menu. Makes it a once-in-a-great while place for us!"
    Dined on 6/28/2014
  • "Having not been in years, due to noise and location, we returned to celebrate an occasion at the request of out teen. We had a great meal. If was delicious, elegant, and clearly ethnic. While it is still noisy, if you go in with that expectation, it is clearly worth it!"
    Dined on 6/25/2014
  • "This restaurant came highly recommended for our anniversary dinner.My husband has eaten here several times for business lunches,so he thought it would be a good.We requested a good table since celebrating our anniv.Upon arriving we were offered a table for 2 among a row of 8+ tables.I expressed that I really wanted to just eat dinner with my husband,not the rest of their guests.I suggested a small booth only to have them seat 4 business guys in the adjacent booth!! There were so many other options for their seating, as well as us, but no attention/thought was put in to our seating.Now for our server, did we ever really have one?She laid our menus down,opened water,once asked us how things were,while neglecting us the majority of the time."

  • "Food was delicious! Went to celebrate a birthday and they brought over a yummy dessert! Will most likely plan a company holiday party there in December !"
    Dined on 6/23/2014
  • "Drinks were good but the food we had was mediocre. The lentil on the Salmon was way too salty. The salmon was just fine."
    Dined on 6/21/2014
  • "We took our neighbors to Nectar in appreciation for all they do for us while we are away. It met all our criteria of an impressive but relaxed atmosphere, trendy and thoughtfully compiled menu, excellent service and fun, fun beverages in addition to a very nice wine list. Everyone left comfortably satisfied but not 'stuffed' which is perfect. Only downside is the rather cavernous room sometimes reached a high noise level. Center City dining in the burbs!"
    Dined on 6/20/2014
  • "I have been to Nectar a number of times and always find the sushi to be extremelly fresh and service very good. You will not go wrong with a visit to Nectar"

  • "Good variety. Everything was well prepared. Service was great"
    Dined on 6/18/2014
  • "This was probabl our 5th or 6th dinner here and Nectar never disappoints. We keep coming back because there are just so many great things to try on the menu. I started with a flight of Sake, had the Maine Roll, then finished with the Lobster & spicy steak stir fry, a fun version of Surf & Turf. The quality ingredients are always enhanced with fantastic sauces. Can't wait to go back!"
    Dined on 6/14/2014
  • "We have been wanting to go to Nectar for years and finally decided that Saturday was the time to go. We were not disappointed to say the least. Everything was perfect and our waiter was a great help in explaining some of the items. We will definitely return."

  • "I had an excellent dinner the night of the Belmont stakes at Nectar, a fine Asian fusion restaurant. The atmosphere is open with a high ceiling main dining room and out door dining also available. The food was very good including good sushi and interesting appetizers, including lobster sliders, lobster rolls, and chicken and pork dumplings. My friend and I shared superb main courses: a well prepared and very tasty soft shell crab dish and excellent short ribs."

  • "This is our 2nd time at Nectar - this time we came for our daughter's 20th birthday - wanted something special and new for her. Our party of 4 each ordered something different, and we all tried each other's entrees. Everyone loved what they had ordered and also loved what the other person had ordered. I ordered the grilled filet mignon, blue cheese potato croquette, and spinach blue cheese dumplings - amazing! The birthday girl ordered the braised short ribs, and loved them, my husband ordered a sushi platter, and our other daughter ordered the tenderloin dish. My only regret was that our son wasn't able to come to experience this gem. Well done, Nectar!"

  • "We go to Nectar as a special occasion place to dine. My husband wanted to revisit for his birthday dinner. It is a bit noisy but we have been there several times so we knew what to expect. We had the Bento plate -Potsticker varieties were delicious. The waitress was helpful in letting us know how to order if we wanted all vegetarian dishes. I had the scallops from the seasonal menu. They were large and quite filling. My husband ordered the striped bass. it too was very good and very generous. My daughter ordered two vegetarian appetizers and we were too full to finish everything. When I reserved the table I mentioned the birthday dinner. the waitress arrived with a delicious chocolate ganache which was comped. NICE"
    Dined on 6/4/2014
  • ""I enjoyed the feel of this place – like an exciting place to eat and share thoughts with friends. I definitely would return to try other dishes. The shrimp rolls were tasty and the scallops were well prepared and filling. Everyone loved the appetizers. Service was friendly and informative. The drink of the day, a mango marguerita was affordable and well prepared." "
