NEVADOS Tequila and Mezcal Lounge

Amazing spot!! We went with a group of friends and ordered family style. We got the Mexican street corn, patacones, two platters of tacos (a feature prawn one, chicken, pork belly x2, beef, and hongos), tamarind ribs (familia size), achiote glazed pork belly bites, papitas, and churros for dessert. The flavours and sauces were all just so good! A few additional comments: - I recommend ordering 1 order of the corn per two people as it’s one cob cut in half. It was delish! - The patacones were my least favourite item but were well enjoyed by the others - the feature prawn taco, pork belly taco, and drunken beef tacos were the overall favourite tacos! - I can’t pick an overall favourite between the pork belly bites, tamarind ribs, corn, and papitas. They were all so good! - great atmosphere inside. Hope to go back to enjoy the lovely patio on a sunny day - I loved my blackberry mocktail and my friends enjoyed the classic lime margarita pitcher. I wish they would add more mocktail options to the menu as it was very limited. And also wish they’d add mojitos! For those of us who don’t like margs, it’s a great alternative. - the sauces with the churros were too runny. Hopefully they can revisit and thicken them just a bit so the sauces stay on the churro better after being dipped

Omg. It’s been two weeks since we were in Fernie and i haven’t stopped thinking or talking about this place, well, more like craving. Tonight i tried to make arepas and failed. I can cook tamales, chile relenos and even crazy good black bean soup, but never even had an arepa till Nevados. Now I’m addicted. Actually we’re all addicted…to everything we ate and if our stomachs would have let us, we would have ate more. The staff was very nice to us and eventually moved us out to their amazing patio. The corn bread was the best I’ve ever had bar none. The tacos were great, the arepas well you know…, the tostadas and even the desserts were all amazing and fresh and super quality. I’m literally drooling thinking about driving back down from Calgary to eat there… Kudos to the kitchen staff. You guys rock out some absolutely amazing food. XX Crazy restaurant foodie guy.

I recently visited Nevados on my trip to Fernie this summer. The host was friendly, explained that they are a first come first serve restaurant in order to be as fair as possible. We went for a drink at the Fernie Distillers while waiting for our table. Let me tell you, Nevados was worth the wait! Our server Erin was incredible, the food and drinks were outstanding. 10/10 would visit again!

We were greeted by the vibrant and interesting choice of artwork. Definitely conversation pieces. It's a great atmosphere. Service is prompt and friendly. Loved that they had a gf menu. Our orders came out in a timely fashion. The food is so tasty! If we could, we'd order one of everything. 😊

Best restaurant in the East Kootenays. Staff is attentive, knowledgeable and kind; tapas selection and quality can’t be beat. Would eat here time and time again.

We went here thanks to a quick Google search. It was a Saturday night and we didn’t have a reservation, so totally fine with a wait. The hostess, however, was super rude about the potential wait, and seemed completely annoyed by us. We asked if we could sit at the bar, and it seemed like a huge inconvenience to her. We debated even staying but the bartender, Taylor, totally turned around our experience. She was knowledgeable, kind and seemed genuinely keen to give us a good experience. The drinks were great and the food was good too. The review would honestly would have been a 5 star, but the way we were initially “welcomed” brought it down, unfortunately.

After a 7-hour drive to Fernie, we were excited to dive into the experience at this buzzing hotspot. The ambiance is lively with a super dark and energetic vibe, which some might find a bit loud and chilly—note to self: keep the jackets on! The food, however, stole the show. Every one of the six shareable dishes was exceptionally well done, with the borkbelly bites on a bed of lettuce being an absolute standout. While the drinks were enjoyable, they didn’t quite match the stellar quality of the food, and the price point left a bit to be desired. Service was friendly, though there were moments when things moved a bit slowly—our drinks took about 15 minutes, in contrast to the lightning-fast kitchen. All in all, it’s a great little place with an amazing food menu, and despite a bill close to $200, we’re definitely planning to return the next time we’re in Fernie.

2nd time here and just as good as we remembered! Had the aguachile, papitas,mussels, pork belly and Baja tacos. So good
