Nellie’s On 90th — Restaurant in Calgary

This morning I had the wonderful pleasure of sitting down at Nellie's.

The atmosphere of the restaurant is good, very old fashioned diner-y. Solid.

Service was good, too. A server once asked me without prompt to refill my coffee. Solid.

The eggs were equally unflavoured and scrambled to of 1/4 chunks 3/4 crumbs. The toast was thin and very tough like it had been toasted ages ago. In terms of positives, the place is quaint, has a pretty charming aesthetic, and the servers are pretty friendly, but the food was unenjoyable to the point that we won't...
