AMAZING. This is a gem in the rough. I can not rave enough about this restaurant. A quick meet up with old friends turned into a golden memory. The outside pergola with the cool breeze was perfect. My Brisket tasted mouth watering and memorable. Service from MaKala was very exceptional. We felt she went above and beyond to make our out of town local stop a hit. Thank you Alex on the info of the 1880 architecture. It is amazing to see the retrofits. I loved the suggested Mexican style Amber beer I had. It's Carmel back taste and smooth finish set the tone for the good times we had. Thank you thank you thank you. We will be back on our next pass through. Kid-friendliness: Perfect options for kids

A great assortment of BBQ meats, in plates, sandwiches, nachos, etc forms. We really enjoyed the BBQ pork when we were there, and the sides (commonly served a la carte) tasted fresh made. A little pricier than some other BBQ places in the area after factoring in adding sides to dishes, but all in all Nest is in my family's top 3 BBQ places to visit. Would have liked to try the smoked chicken wings, but couldn't convince myself to spend $23 for 10 wings. Not disappointed with what I selected, We will definitely be back. Maybe wings next time, I'm sure they're worth it.

The brisket was OUT. OF. THIS. WORLD. Mac n cheese was delicious, fries were amazing and generous, their house sauces were the absolute bomb. Let this photo emphasize how much I enjoyed and how quickly I plan to come back for more. Will Green rocks!
