   Food quality was horrible compared to past experiences. It’s gone down in the past couple of years, but today was real bad. Service was better than it has been, but the quality of food killed it.

   Located conveniently adjacent to our hotel (Westin Pointsette), we have never been disappointed with dining at Nose Dive. Yesterday evening, as we celebrated our 23rd wedding anniversary was no exception! Kudos to the manager, Karlie (our waitress), and Brian (wait staff) for their warm welcome and treatment. Actually, all the staff was excellent. We highly recommend the Brussels Sprouts appetizer to start. The hamburger and fish and chips were excellent, as was the cole slaw. Never been disappointed in their menu and service! Highly recommend that you make a reservation, as Nose Dive is very popular.

   My husband and I enjoyed a delicious dinner at The Nose Dive. I'm glad I made a reservation as it was busy on a Thursday night. We were promptly seated, even arriving a little earlier and our waitress was wonderful. I asked to alter the sides with my meal, due to dietary restrictions and she said no problem. Our meals were perfectly prepared and delicious. The restaurant is somewhat loud but a lively vibe and atmosphere. They also offer a large selection of drinks. The location is ideal being close to the Peace Center and Falls Park. We look forward to returning soon.

   A great space , open air feel. Tables set apart nicely. Service very good. The burger was overcooked but ok. Fried a bit soggy. Salad was ok , fish not great. First visit was real good, maybe just an off day. Will try again

   We went for my birthday. Everyone enjoyed the salmon, steak and fish and chips. Surprised to see only 1 piece of fish though. I usually get the vegetable plate that comes with roasted whole veggies (carrots, green beans, etc.) but tonight lots of very small diced veggies. Not a fan! Blacken salmon on top was good.

   Miki, We appreciate you choosing us to help you celebrate your birthday but we're so sad to hear our recent vegetable entree didn't quite hit the mark with you. If you would prefer the older Vegetable Plate we would be happy to prepare that for you. That said, we are happy to hear the other items were enjoyed. If there was anything else, outside of how we presented the vegetables, you feel comfortable to share, we'd love any more feedback.

   Our first time dining. I ordered the fish and chips which was bland and a bit greasy. My wife ordered the dip sandwich and quite honestly it was pretty bad. Stringy and fries were greasy. Our friends ordered fried chicken and it was tough. Overall not great. No one finished their food.

We appreciate you taking time to share your thoughts with us. We would love to connect with you directly to discuss your experience further if you wouldn't mind sharing your contact information with us.

   Basic American food. Not much different than Applebys.

   Andi, Thank you for taking time to let us know your thoughts! We enjoy offering a very approachable selection of items that could satiate a broad palate but are sad it missed the mark for you. We do appreciate your feedback and hope that you visit us again.

   Sat us at a terrible table right at front door. Extremely loud. Even told them it was a birthday. Waited 45 minutes to be receive our food after everyone who arrived later, was served. I had to ask waitress where our order was after 40 minutes and then three other staff members arrived to say sorry for the delay. Clearly the order was missed. Disappointed- Nose Dive do better.

   The food quality seems to have decreased pretty significantly between October and now, but the service was great!

   Leah, We are happy to hear about the quality of service you received but are disappointed to hear that our food missed the mark. We would love more insight into what you ordered and will reach out privately.

    We asked for a table next to a wall as we were meeting with our daughter’s boyfriend. He was seeking our blessing! They seated us in the perfect spot for the purpose of our lunch as we felt more isolated from other diners and could have this very serious conversation. Thanks Nose Dive! Food was good (had brunch) and service was great!
