Overall it's a very nice place, the views are great, the service was great. You're definitely not paying for a substantial meal. It was delicious but not more than 5 bites to complete.

Normally I will rave about the Crows Nest. We decided to go after Valentine’s Day as when we tried to book for Valentine’s Day a month and a half ago, there weren’t any reservations available. I requested my prime rib medium rare, and received a well done steak and my husband got the venison and it was subpar. They did fix my steak and I was hoping to receive some sort of compensation (maybe a drink since we had four), as that is what has been done in the past but nothing was comped. Our deserve was phenomenal- the chocolate caramel entremet- and so were our drinks. Hopefully the new staff can work out the kinks by our next visit
