Loka Middle Eastern-mediterranean Bistro

The food was absolutely amazing! My partner and I came to Nelson for a mini-vacay and our server Ocea was amazing, she handled working the floor by herself like a pro! Would highly recommend!!

The food is amazing and the Gin selection is top shelf. There is limited seating, so plan ahead. The outdoor patio is also nice and the staff is really friendly

Food and cocktails were absolutely delicious!! Loved the atmosphere and the service was great. One thing, however, we were very surprised and a bit unsettled to see that the server was not wearing a mask... a bit strange when all the other restaurants in Nelson are, and given the certain state of the pandemic, you think they would...

Wow! It took me way to long to wander into this Amazing and authentic space. I can honestly say it was well worth the rumours! Stellar martinis, small town service feel, and gorgeous Arabic/Middle Eastern flare! If you want a beautiful dish that is rife with flavour, a quaint Baker Street Nelson experience, and a wonderful visual feast.... try this! The staff know their martinis too

I can not believe I Waited 18 months from my time arriving in Nelson to try this place! Amazing Middle Eastern cuisine with gorgeous flavours, tasty martinis, and small town familiar service. This place is what I’ve may call a hidden gem... easy to view in summer when it share its patio with the infamous Baba’s restaurant on Baker, yet quietly tucked into an intimate and brilliant space for couples and small groups. You will NOT be disappointed!
