We have passed this place and have heard really good things about it but never, all summer, had an opportunity to enjoy lunch until today. Greeted at the bar from a very friendly person, like we have been there 100 times. Sorry I didn't get her name. Service continued to be excellent throughout the meal. We took a high top and enjoyed a couple of beers. Ordered their wings 6 each (12) one group (6) General TSO's were good but we enjoyed their Habanero Mango sauce better but the (6) Spicy Garlic were extra yummy. Having enjoyed lots of beef this past week, we decided to try Fish, however on the menu it shows Friday Only. We lucked out Fish Sandwich & Fish Bites -Ordered Beer Battered - were available. Spouse enjoyed her Fish Sandwich with Hand cut Fresh Cooked Fries while I enjoyed the Fish Bites with Onion Rings. Nice Hidden 'LOCAL' Gem located on Oneida Lake, can't wait until the summer, to pull in via Jet ski this summer or take a drive from "THE BEACH" to enjoy another great meal, large portions and very friendly staff. My leftover Fish bites with Onion Rings - which were also beer battered as well will be enjoyed again the next day for my lunch!

Honestly it was straight up disgusting, I would take a frozen pizza over the one I got anytime. Yuckkkk. Is all I can say.

This was our first time to The Nest. We were interested in checking out their outdoor concert…read morearea. We arrived just as a local band was getting ready for a three hour set (4-7pm) on a Sunday afternoon. Cover charge was $5.00 each. There were quite a few people there, but there was still room to sit in the spacious outdoor deck/stage area. There's also an outside bar area to grab a drink, instead of having to run inside to the regular bar. Food was available, but we did not try anything. The indoor vathrooms were pretty small, but served the purpose. The music was very good, the sound was loud enough, without blaring out of the speakers. There's a roof over the outside deck, but it's in different sections, so the sun does shine though in areas, making it a little hot when it's hitting you. Our only complaint would be the amount of people that were smoking. There is no way to get away from the cigarette smoke wafting in your face. Other than that, it seems like a great venue to enjoy some live music, a drink and a bite to eat. We definitely plan on going back.

We were so impressed! It's very clean for a bar and the outside is beautifully finished. We had a blue moon and a burger-- it was one of the best burgers i've ever had from a restaurant. The bartender was extremely friendly and welcoming. Nice vibes all around from this little hole in the wall spot... can't wait to return on a date night :)

It is basement level and just a black unmarked door opens to the staircase leading down, that has clear signage. It definitely is like stepping back in time and there's no Wi-Fi service so guests are enjoying the live music or socializing! We ordered pretty quickly at the bar, we were not offered menus so I'm not sure what their signature cocktails are. Ordered a martini requested fruity, I believe it was raspberry not sure and a dark red for my friend. We sat in some cozy velvet purple chairs in the lounge area enjoying live Jazz music. My friend recalls this was a downstairs dining area for Burger King in the 80's-early 90's. The bar and Bath Room could be a bit tidier, but otherwise fun retro vibe. There is an historical piston machine on display that was used to run the building's original elevator utilizing steam! And now serves as decor and remanence of past decades.

I will preface this review with the fact that I put a lot off consideration into deducting stars…read moreduring this time, but there were many things off during my time here. I'll start with the good, which was the service, and the only saving grace that kept me from leaving. The waitresses were attentive and friendly. The wings were great, my fiancé also enjoyed his chicken sandwich. Now to the "less than ideal" section of my review: We waited over an hour for our food. My side salad came almost immediately, but then it was over an hour in between the salad and the rest of the food, which included wings which came out along with the appetizers. There were maybe only 6 different tables eating while we were there. My chicken riggies left a lot to be desired. I wish they had a description if they were planning on straying from the expected recipe; these rigatoni are stuffed, which is fine, but these were way overcooked and a bit slimy. There was also barely any chicken, which for $19 was a bit disappointing. It was loaded with jalapeños, which aren't really the best substitute for chicken. Now to the COVID-induced things which didn't lead to stars deducted, but are important to know... apparently you just walk all the way in, towards the back to be seated. We stood there at what we thought was the hostess desk for a solid 7 minutes before a customer at the bar told us to walk in. There are very few tables inside, so we had to sit on the deck outside which makes me wonder if that's why we were forgotten about. All in all, I'd probably consider coming back after the pandemic, and most likely in the summer during its peak. Hopefully they can streamline their processes now that the peak season is winded down

So the waitress asks how everything was after we had the chicken quesadilla appetizers and we tell…read moreher the chicken was bland and needs seasoning. Her reply was that it's a busy Saturday and she's not telling them that today. Seriously we both work in food you are not a positive person. Who says that to a customer? She never smiled, there was at least 4 wait staff and a busser working the deck with a number of open tables. She also told us they had no plates for us to eat our appetizers and then found one said it was busy lunch except it was now 4:30pm. Really? Mind you we have both been managers in restaurants, I still work in one and had worked that day. We are always polite and friendly because of this Don't want to know how the food was don't ask and certainly don't tell the customer you aren't telling the cook. We even tried to laugh it off and she remained stoic. Is there something more going on there like a mean cook or are you just rude? The topper was her talking about us to other wait staff less than 10 feet away after that. The broiled seafood platter was ok but again needed seasoning which we didn't tell her since she clearly didn't care. After my first experience in a number of years a few weeks ago, this was a complete let down. There were plenty of open tables so it wasn't that busy as I have seen a wait for outdoor seating at most places by the water on a sunny warm day. One of the tall ships headed to Oswego was docked there as well which would draw people in from the water but not many there maybe she is part of the problem and the cook on Saturday June 21st. She wears a black shirt with red sides name is Keri. Nice view of the water and always clean we will wait a bit before returning.
