Absolutely the best meal I have had in a restaurant for years. Faultless in taste, presentation and service. It has been a long time since I felt like my meal has been created from start to finish by a chef, as opposed to a cook. Can not recommend highly enough.

We visited for dinner and there was a great atmosphere even on a Tuesday evening! We ordered a number of items to share: sourdough and cultured butter, southern fried chicken, triple cooked chips, sweet potato with fig and roasted lamb shoulder and everything was very tasty! Recommended for a nice relaxed evening with tasty food.

We ate lunch here twice during our stay as the food was excellent and the service also good. The mussel chowder was delicious and the salmon salad contained a tasty variety of ingredients. Inside you are warmed by a huge fireplace and outside the sun shines on the tables. You are welcome to do a wine tasting which is fun.

We arrived from a wine tasting at Cloudy Bay who recommended the Rock Ferry for lunch. A picture perfect setting surrounded by vineyards set the scene. We received a warm welcome and were soon seated in the dining area. All staff were amazing, friendly and helpful. Starters were the artisan warm bread selection with a bowl of mixed olives which was just right. The Pinot Noir from Otago was perfect with our dishes. Mains of salmon sourced from near Mt Cook was outstanding, set on a bulgar salad with brocoli, spinach and rocket. After such a fabulous mains we had to try the dessert and the poached pear and almond with icecream rounded out our lunch with a coffee. A party next to us was celebrating a birthday and the staff obliged with a cake. The atmosphere was so relaxing and even though the menu options were limited, the quality was high. You will not be disappointed!

We checked this place out before we came and had it on our list to try when we were in Nelson. We checked out the website before we walked over because it was a holiday and it said they were open so we went. When we got there it was closed.Hi Robert thank you for your review, we really appreciate you dropping our hard earned rating from 1st Place to 3rd place in order to inform people we were closed on a public holiday. You may appreciate that if you had of looked on our website it clearly states on our opening hours that we are closed on public holidays, so does our facebook page. Our staff work extremely hard for us and they really appreciate having an extra day off on a public holiday. So we are sorry that we weren't open for you when you wanted to come and dine. We feel your review is unfair and unjust and quite honestly it is reviews like this that make it very hard for the hospitality industry. We are more than happy to receive constructive criticism, but in this case you didn't experience Urban in any way and to post a one star review because we were closed is simply wrong.
