My first time at The Nest… I’ve been waiting for years! And wow!! It was everything I’d wanted and more!!! The place is beautiful, our server was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. And our food was INCREDIBLE!!! I had the best chicken sandwich of my life!!! My partner got the eggs Benedict with fried chicken and she loved it! We also got the fried green tomatoes as an app. I personally would have liked them without the sauces on top. The flavor overpowered the tomatoes. They had a live DJ who brought the atmosphere way up with awesome music! I can’t say enough good things! It’s now official my new brunch spot!!!!

The Nest worked with us to accomplish a wonderful bridal shower for my daughter Erin. The food was delicious! Mercedes, our server, was attentive and helpful, and made sure the food was replenished as needed. Everything was wonderful! The Rabbit Hole was just the right size for the party, and has an elevator so we were able to take home the gifts, etc. easily. We have many fond memories!

Amazing experience! My husband and I celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary here, and it didn’t disappoint. Every dish was crafted and delivered as described, hot and at a good pace. Our waitress took the time to answer our questions and make recommendations, and a big thank you for the complementary champagne toast! We will be back!

In Albany for just 24 hours and well, since Schenectady is now a foodie destination we gave it a try. So happy our first choice was booked up because we were all so happy at The Nest!!

Food is delicious. Wait staff is awesome. Place looks very modern & cool. Not big so may need reservations. Also not cheap. Be ready to park on the street or find a lot. I’m not from the city so don’t have the app you may need to pay for on street parking so head’s up there. Patio out front if you want to see the people and cars on state street. Would/will return.

Came for dinner before a show at proctors. Lucky enough to have been seated at the bar. Incredible hand-crafted cocktails. Do NOT miss the fried green tomatoes! It was so delicious that we came back for brunch, which was equally as good! Don’t skip this place if you’re in the area!

We had my baby shower here. I do not regret! We did the shower in the rabbit hole room. It was the perfect sized room for a small party. The staff went above and beyond on the day of the shower. They helped with decorating and continued to ask if we needed anything. The waitstaff was super professional and kind. The food was also delicious, we did the brunch buffet. Everyone that came said they absolutely loved what was served for the food. The tables were set so beautifully that we didn’t need to put up many decorations and just used what we had. They have beautiful China for serving the food as well. Jamie the manager was also amazing throughout the whole process of planning and setting everything up. She made sure that everything was just the way that we wanted it and needed it to be.

Recommend reservations. We were seated at our reservation time. Enjoyed an amazing brunch. Began with Espresso drinks, then deviled eggs and fried green tomatos as appetizers. I had the Lobster Eggs Benedict and Leslie had eggs with short ribs hash. The coffee was excellent, the service quick, friendly and efficient. Plenty of smiles and happy people, a really comfortable place yo relax for brunch.

Had a great birthday brunch full of surprises. If you are coming for Sunday brunch, be sure to make a reservation, I was a walk in and there was a wait because this place is so good. I sat at the bar and still had a good time. They were so friendly they let me create my own dish, we called it The Herc: The Tom Tom with Lemon Poppy Waffle, truffle chicken, cheddar cheese it’s and sweet, savory flavor . The chicken slaps. Would come again if I’m in town, recommend you do as well ⚡️.

Visited for Sunday morning brunch with girlfriends. We arrived right around the opening, and even without a reservation we were seated outside right away. We were lucky with great weather, however some of the tables out on the sidewalk are in full sun with no shade, so bring sunglasses. Service was very friendly, although slow, and the food was excellent.
