    I ordered the 6 in petite filet mignon with vegetables and a mushroom sauce. My wife ordered the same and then we added additional sauce and an appetizer Just to add some flavor and the steaks were both ordered medium rare. steaks arrived and one was cooked correctly and hers appeared cooked more medium. She was given a knife and asked to cut it and verify, it was correctly Cooked and the first thing out of her mouth was it seemed tough. The knife would barely cut. The waiter said she must have a dull knife so she told him she would try it and let him know and after one bite I knew it’s just a tough steak so I let him know and he brought her a new plate , that steak was cooked med rare, but I swear it was a low-grade cut from a local food store, not what I’m used to at a high end steakhouse. Vegetables were roasted carrots, fingerling potatoes and asparagus served dry - no sauce,olive oil , butter….. the Ahi appetizer was very good BTW my wife agrees filet was low end grade. I cook a better filet from the local butcher. Bill was $150 excluding tip so $180

    I will say the food was good, Sean the bartender was excellent and tried his best to accommodate our party. This is one of a few restaurants at Tween Waters, we came as big family as a holiday gift from my Aunt. The resort itself was nice and accommodating however, the restaurants were not at all accommodating. Working with Jasmine was amazing however when the General Manager Michelle stepped in, we couldn't have had a worse experience. We feel she went out of her way to not accommodate our party..We made our reservation two weeks in advance. They split our party into 4 tables, none of which could be put together. Still not sure why, half the tables were empty! Suggestion...if you're going to this resort with a big family call in advance and speak to Jasmine she will go out of her way to try to accommodate. Don't ask to speak to a manager, especially Michelle she was useless and very insulting. In summary our bill for the night at this restaurant Was $2,500, next time I'll make reservations down the street at Green Flash where they were top notch!

    We dined at The Crow’s Nest to celebrate our anniversary. The atmosphere was wonderful. It was elegant but not stuffy. The view was amazing. The food was outstanding although not cheap. The service was great. I would definitely recommend for a special night!

    Ordered many items to share. The seabass stood out as it was amazing, but everything was delish. The service was perfect. Ambiance could be improved by dimming the lights and by having small dim artificial candles or lights on each table. Too bright.
