Nello Does You Dirty
Eater has the visual proof that Nello in Southampton is charging $27 for a single vodka soda. Not a bottle of vodka and a 1 liter of soda. Just one drink! Equally appalling is the $18 bottle of water. Everything about this is so depressing. Ugh. [Eater]

A bottle of water also costs $18 in their Madison Avenue location, even if you specifically request for tap water. Food is very average. Music is very loud cheesy European house/techno even on a Sunday brunch.
try a glass of rose' for $100...or a shot of patron for $75...buutt you can't beat thoe baaaaler candles that spit hot wax all oveer your crispy linnens
the point is his prices are arbitrary...he's just making them high so his clientelle stays with people who dont really look at the bill...the food is ehh...it's more a 'be seen' thing
I HATE NELLO!!!!!!! service is bad. food is bad. everything is bad.
I love you for posting this.
This place deserves to be shut down! I haven't been there in ages, thought I give it a try a few weekends ago. The service is rude and arrogant, the food is bad at best and the prices left me gasping for air. 3 starters, 5 entres, a bottle of white and a bottle of red (the cheapest of each), and we ended up with a $1,200 tap. The special of the day was 1/2 dover sole, probably frozen, with champagne sauce - yeah, that justified the price of $75!
When we asked the waiter to call us a taxi, the hostess said we should call 411 because she doesn't know, or for that matter anybody, a number for a local cab company. And the biggest idiot of all of them is the bald GM!
FUCK NELLO's DUNE IS WAY FUNNER ANYWAY
