About The Nest

Nestled in a picturesque corner of town, The Nest provides an unforgettable southern dining experience with rustic and vintage decor that sets a nostalgic tone for every meal. The staff's exceptional friendliness and attentiveness create a welcoming atmosphere that enhances the dining experience. The menu offers a variety of southern classics and innovative dishes to cater to all tastes, including the fantastic biscuit flight, whipped ricotta, and flawless fried chicken with collard greens and cornbread. The blackened scallops stand out for their unique creativity, while the chicken and waffles remain a favorite with juicy chicken and perfect breading. The impressive drink selection features fresh takes on old classics, including the Smoking Gun craft cocktail and the Southern Belle cocktail, both highly praised. The outdoor seating option is a lovely, open space perfect for summer dining, and the reasonable prices make it accessible for all. The crab dip and pork belly starters are flavorful, with the pork belly stealing the show. The deviled eggs have a fluffy filling that is really yummy, and the cheesecake is so good. The rotating menu draws in a good crowd even on less busy nights. With quick service and highly attentive staff, guests are encouraged to make reservations, especially in the evenings, to enjoy the full Nest experience.
