I enjoyed the dinner here. Had the classic surf and turf and was not disappointed with it. Atmosphere is what you are paying for here and it's nice. Staff was friendly and did a great job
Stephanie at the downstairs bar is honestly the best. She is so fun, great personality, so fast with service and makes my experience fabulous every time. I feel like family every time I come and see her she talks with me and everyone who comes into the bar. I have met a great deal of people because of her willingness to be personable with the people who sit at her bar. she also seems to motivate the crew around her and introduces the cooks and servers as if we are all a family. I can’t rave enough about Stephanie. Crows nest and Venice should feel lucky to have a woman like this around. Stephanie just know we appreciate your service and are extremely grateful to have someone like you to serve us. Short note; I am new to Venice and don’t know many places to go but here I feel at home and enjoy my experience every time. #bestbartenderintheworld
We love this Restaurant. It has an excellent service, very nice ambiance and gluten free options. I have celiac and I know I am always safe in this Restaurant.
A great restaurant!! The Crow's Nest fried Seafood Platter was perfect and delicious. Also had the Ahi Tuna plate which was tasty and the presentation was unique. We had a wonderful dinner and loved the atmosphere of this place.
The food was excellent but our server was rude! In fact she treated us differently than other tables. We had to ask the bus boy for bread plates, a bowl for shells, and to remove used plates. Not something you should have to do when paying $100 plus for dinner. She even made it a big deal that I asked to sample a beer because the bar was downstairs and she would have to walk downstairs to get it and then again if I liked it!!! She seemed as if we were a bother to her unlike any other costumers. I will NOT be back!!! The view was beautiful but the server ruined our dinner. 😕. Don’t get Tina if you go.
Always a great meal whatever your taste is. Great staff and service and one of the largest selections of wine. Oh and did I mention the greatest seafood
We usually go to the Crow's Nest Tavern. One of the best deals in Venice. Reasonably priced dinners that are on the gourmet side. Intimate atmosphere. I think they have a guitarist every evening. Bisque with a side of sherry. You can rent a kayak there too.
The pre-meal bread and crackers had oil and dips which were all great. The conch fritters are some of the best I've eaten. The crab cakes were delicious. And the grouper dish on a bed of rice mixed with shrimp, mushrooms, and scallops was cooked to perfection. The server was also very nice and pleasant. We left a very nice tip for her.
My party was sat within minutes of our reservation time and enjoyed a great view. The only thing better was the food! We had the grouper, scallops, bouillabaisse, and shrimp. All were wonderful. Our service was top notch too, which contributed to a great experience.
Wow! Best seafood I've had in a long time. Not cheap, but considering the quality, I wouldn't have expected to pay less. Andrea took care of us with charm, knowledge, and wittiness (plenty of that third one!) She definitely made our visit memorable! By the way, the view in front of the dock is amazing.
A little on the price side, but worth every penny. Great views, excellent selection of food and you can get there by boat. My wife liked the good looking young men who helped the ladies off the boat. Friends from up North go nuts over this place!
Food can vary as can the service. The place itself is nice and clean even though it caters to an older crowd. The views, however are spectacular and they have one of the better bar selections around for a place that is most definitely not a sports bar.
Nice waterside restaurant offering upper deck seating /dining with a view. Inside seating has a nautical theme. Friendly staff , i enjoyed a great Grouper sandwich although the portion was small compared to other restaurants. The beer batter coated fries were really good. Menu has great choices.
Great place, beautiful view of the jetty. Glossy Mary's are in point! Draft selection good enough A bit pricy, $12 for a bacon cheese burger, but it's delicious food, well prepared and presented. I'd recommend this place to anyone with an urge to eat somewhere fancy, but not break the bank
I sat at the upper inside bar while we waited for our table and for dinner. The bartender was on top of her game so we decided to eat there. Normally you can only order from the dinner menu, but I really wanted a Grouper Sandwich. That's only available downstairs in the tavern. I told the bartender Carly it was my last night in town so she pulled some strings and made it happen! The sandwich was great. My wife had the Grouper Key Largo which was also very good. This place has great dinner views, but make a reservation early because they get booked quickly. We will be back the next time we are in town.
