The Shining star at Nelson's in the Whit is the staff! Everyone here was so nice and accommodating! Everyone said hello and goodbye and someone even opened the door for us when they saw us coming up the walk. The staff was what we talked about after the meal even though the food was also great! The dishes were reliable standards but all of them had unique flavors. The price points were also very good for the Whit. We will def be back!
I’ve lived 3 blocks away for the past couple years and Nelson’s is a staple for me & the wife.
The food has consistently been both delicious, and satisfying in the way only a home cooked meal that was made with love can leave me filling.
My tried & true is the basic chicken burrito - $8 for a full meal & often leftovers for later.
And the owner Nelson (in the photo) is the extra magic that has me leaving this review. He’s Eugene’s most charismatic & joyous person, which I swear has to do with why the food feels so nice & filling
Anyway if you’re in the mood for a burrito & near the whitaker this place is miles better than any restaurant in a 10 mile radius
The breakfast burrito was so delicious! The eggs were cooked to perfection, the bacon was crispy, and the salsa had just the right amount of kick. The portions were generous, and the prices were very reasonable. The atmosphere was cozy and authentic, and the service was top-notch. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for delicious and authentic Mexican food in the Eugene area. Thank you Nelson's Taqueria for a wonderful breakfast experience!
We aren't from the area and went in search of street tacos...we ended up at this place however the little Taco truck was closed...across the street though is Nelson's inside a historic looking house, I suppose they moved or are associated with one another? Either way if you end up at the taco truck like we did, just walk across the street lol...excellent street tacos and quesadillas! Although the beans for the quesadilla plate come directly on it, not on the side. I wasn't expecting that but it tasted wonderful! Ask for the beans on the side though if you don't want them inside lol
The salsa was also very tasty and the service was very fast and friendly! Thank you for a great experience! :-)
Excellent meal. I had the Taquitos & made it a full meal by adding Rice & Beans. I ordered Horchata to drink. The price was low, the food was incredible & the staff was even more incredible. There were 14 of us & every dish looked amazing. I took photos of 2 other folks dishes as well. A Nelson's Burrito without Tortilla & Hard Tacos. My 4 Taquitos were not dry like at other places. Crunchy on the outside & melt in your mouth delectable inside. I had the Chicken, not the Beef. There was a good amount of Cotija Cheese & Guacamole on them with lettuce, Tomato & regular shredded Cheese as well. Most places skimp on the Cotija which irks me, but not here! The Refried Beans I could have just ordered a bowl full of & been happy. These were the best Refried Beans I have had yet in Lane County. The Rice was good. My Horchata was refreshing, just too sweet for me, (I am weird & don't care for really sweet beverages.) so I shall not order it as my beverage again & stick to water. (I added water to it & it was fine.) The Chips & Salsa, I also could have made a meal of! Tri colored Chips & Salsa that was fresh & had just enough kick to it. I can't eat spicy stuff & Salsa at so many other places is too spicy. These Chips did not taste store bought either, so these are officially my new FAVORITE Chips & Salsa! The staff there, as I had mentioned earlier were all so incredible. On point & so kind & frolicky! Is that a word? ♡ I regret not ever having come here sooner & I will be back for more happy eating adventures!
We don't eat out often, but when we do this is our favorite spot. Kids or no kids, the food is phenomenal, the drinks are refreshing and reasonably priced. The food is so good that we always get extra meal to bring home. TJ is the host with the most. He always greets us like family. The atmosphere is cozy but definitely passes the vibe check no matter what the of day you choose to dine. All of the entertainment and events are affordable and of unforgettable quality. A big factor for us is that this is one of very few LGBT+ establishments locally. Nelson's is a safe place. 10/10, I highly recommend!
We had chicken tortilla soup and shrimp tacos. I added beans and rice to mine and it was delicious! First time there and the staff was attentive to my dietary needs. Wonderful experience! Definitely planning to go back.
I took off a Star for atmosphere just because it did get very loud inside when the place was full and everyone was talking. Overwhelming for me but no shade on them. It was still a wonderful experience!
Awesome virgin margarita and other N/A options! Really yummy taquitos, Chile relleno and churro dessert. Knocked 1 star because the beans had absolutely no flavor and desperately needed salt. I told the server and she seemed receptive to the feedback. Hopefully the beans improve.

Claim 52 has really good burgers. Iâd happily come back for the cowboy burger. The beers range from mild ales and lagers, to hoppy IPAs. But I canât leave out the WILD beers like Tiramisu and raspberry gingerbread cheesecake.
