Decided to go after not being there since new ownership. I had a half of lobster roll with a cup of white chowder which was very good. My brother got the fried clam dinner which was $36.95. He said there were hardly any bellies, mostly stems. I noticed they were very dark which appear to be the case when the oil is either old or they were overdone. These are not the same fried clams that the former Crow's Nest used to serve. We always get the fried clams at Portside in Galilee and they are always delicious, lightly battered and full bellies. read more

We stopped in for dinner this evening. The food and service were excellent! Susie made us the best frozen spicy margarita! Thank you Susie

We had a nice dinner here on a rainy evening! We were looking for some good seafood somewhere near some water and we found it here. We started with the tuna tower. This was yummy, I liked the flavor combinations it used, but there was too much rice for me especially for the price. For my entree I got the broiled scrod with fries and broccoli. The fish was nice, I liked the breadcrumbs. The fries were those really yummy extra crispy ones, and the broccoli did its job. The staff was helpful and nice, and the locale was very on-theme with the seafood, but in a very tasteful way! I would definitely recommend this place! read more

I celebrated my birthday here just last week. 7/5 We started with the calamari, which was amazing and had fish tacos as the entrée . The service was great. The staff surprised me by singing happy birthday, that was so cute We had a table by the window, which overlooks the water. you have a choice of also sitting outside if you prefer read more

So good. Visiting the state for the first time and found this gem on Yelp. Staff was kind Ambiance was awesome and views overlook a nice lake. Food - delicious. Lobster roll - 9 out of 10. The bun was delicious and they gave a hefty amount of lobster. Seasoned to perfection Clam cakes- 4 out of 10. Tasted more like a fish fritter with a lot of dough and filling. Baked stuff lobster - 9 out of 10. Would recommend and would have again. Seafood with a red pasta - 9.6 out of 10. My favorite. (I don't remember the name of this dish). Overall delicious and they gave huge portions. Will definitely come back here again. read more

I'd have never known this place was here!! It's set back along the water and not on a main road. I met a friend for lunch and immediately liked the atmosphere inside. Service was excellent. We each got appetizers and entrees. I thought the clam chowder was pretty good. The clam cakes were a bit chewy but I've never had them before so maybe that's typical. The calamari was tasty. My scallop entree was ok, nothing memorable. I prefer larger diver scallops to the small type used in this dish. I didn't like the mashed squash I chose as my side. The server did say she'd bring something else but I had more than enough food already. My friend really enjoyed the fish tacos. I thought the prices were very reasonable for the portion sizes. I would come back here and would like to try the fish and chips next time. read more

This is a gem in the area. A classic New England seafood place right by the harbor for the perfect ambience. Charlene was a friendly and perfect server. The calamari was tender and had great flavor. Our main entrees were delicious as well. The fish sandwich was a huge thick piece of cod that was moist and full of flavor. The baked scallops were a classic with rice pilaf and broccoli. We are planning to move up here in a few years and this will definitely be one of our regular seafood spots! read more

Perfect day to sit outside and eat fish tacos! They were lightly breaded and came with corn salsa and a small sprinkling of homemade coleslaw. My husband enjoyed his eggplant sub which came with fries. Olivia was a sweet waitress and her suggestions help steer us to good choices . read more

Had a pretty pleasant experience at the Crows Nest. Our work group bombarded them on a Sunday evening with two giant tables, but our server handled that like a pro and was very attentive to our needs and splitting checks etc. the room we were in was nice and had a fun fish tank backdrop. I'm not from RI, so of course I had to order all the foods I can't get in NE. Went with the baked stuffed lobster, it was a great amount of food, and I enjoyed it but after seeing the traditional butter variation had some regret of not going with the classic version. I also enjoyed the creamy NE clam chowder soup. The server talked up most of their sides and could not really give a concrete recommendation for one, so I went with the mashed potatoes, and will say that was the only underwhelming part of the meal, as their was nothing special about them, but I had enough lobster to not worry about eating them. Also enjoyed a classic old fashioned for my drink. Pricing at the time for the lobster was around $55, seemed pretty reasonable for the amount of lobster given. read more

Atmosphere was beautiful, they also have an outdoor patio which is perfect for summer dining! The parking lot was almost full when we arrived and there really wasn't on-street parking available either, luckily one spot opened up for me. Our waitress was polite and attentive, and the food came out in a reasonable time. Food was delicious and they give you warm bread, which I'm a huge fan of! Noise level was a little loud but it was very busy too. I would definitely go back again. read more

Family members have moved locally near this area ----so I thought I'd pop in and check out the menu (UPDATED 4yrs ago?) and have a cupa chowdah !! Seems to have more pizzaz now! The Cheerful restaurant is clean bright, aptly decorated with seashore /fishing themes! I only had a short time to check this place out, but I enjoyed some delicious "white" chowder and met a wonderful number of service staff who were so enthusiastic and friendly. Ask for David at the bar... really really good guy. I've sent the scoop to my local family and I know they'll really enjoy this location throughout the year. read more

Food, service, and coastal ambiance were all superb at The Crow's Nest restaurant. There is plenty of easy parking right by the water, great drinks, and a wonderful, unpretentious atmosphere. Tucked right into the marina community, it features a fantastic, classic wooden tavern bar and a casual dining room that feels like a genuine, old-school New England seafood house. It is the perfect, welcoming spot to pull up a chair right off the harbor. read more

Rating: 3.5 Came to try the place for dinner. It was pretty busy but we were able to be sat down relatively quickly as it's a large establishment. The place has its own parkings available. Inside is pretty typical of seafood restaurant around the area but with larger scale and do offer outside seatings as well. We ordered raw seafood sampler to start and i got lobster mac and cheese. Started with some bread and butter. Simple but solid. Seafood sampler was okay. Came with 6 oysters, shrimp and cherrystones. Oyster was probably the best and the horseradish sauce was also pretty good. Cherry stones were small and didn't have a-lot of meat and shrimp tasted and felt like frozen. Lobster mac and cheese was pretty tasty. Lots of cheese and al dente macaroni and good mount of lobster meat. Only thing is that there was a piece of lobster shell mixed in. My partner got the fish and chips and substituted coleslaw for steamed broccoli but they forgot the broccoli. We asked the waitress and they brought the broccoli quickly. Service was decent but they did forget the broccoli side. Overall the place was ok. Nothing really stood out and the price was on the higher end but without a good reason. Lobster shell piece in a lobster mac and cheese and missing broccoli side instead of coleslaw didn't help. Probably would not come back read more

I am currently in a wheelchair so I want to add that. I was having lunch with my mentor and she requested a table that my wheelchair could fit, and this was absolutely accommodated. The wheelchair entry is in the front of the building so if you park in the parking lot you have to go over gravel and be picked up since there's no easy access from the parking lot. We didn't know the entryway for wheelchair was directly in the front so just some info for anyone in a wheelchair or assisted devices. Walking in the place seems quite huge and the host was very friendly and walked me right in. Our server was very nice as well and very attentive. I love the little fish tank it was a cute touch. I also love that this is by the water, must be nice in the summer. So I ordered from the appetizer menu (to have as my meal) the steamers and a cup of red chowder. The red chowder was delicious and had tons of clam pieces I did appreciate this. When I got my steamers I was confused to see little white pieces of maybe garlic and something else? But I didn't see this on the menu or I wouldn't had got that. I'm not sure what it was but it made the steamers okay, which I'm sure without it would've been really good. My mentor had a meeting directly after so I didn't have time to have them fix the issue, so I just stuck it out. I ate maybe half of the steamers and brought the other home, I didn't want to be rude to my mentor, but I wish this was on the menu as something they do, because I like my steamers without anything on them. Otherwise it was okay. The price points are what I would expect for the area, but I don't think I would come back, didn't really see anything too fancy on the menu for my liking. read more

Service is wonderful. My favorite dish is baked scrod ...and plenty of choices for side dishes. The Butternut Squash and Cole Swall is my favorite. Beautiful place on the water. Check it out! read more

My first time at the Crows Nest. The queer o meter is a solid 10. And we thank you! First off parking is awful, it was a Friday in early spring, I can't imagine it in the summer, so be prepared. We had a reservation and were seated promptly at a booth, by the beautiful aquarium. Our waitress was accommodating and so nice, I didn't catch her name otherwise I'd give a shout out. Food: I got the oysters then steamers. The oysters were $3 each, inline with most places and were fresh and delicious. I like them medium brine and medium cup. They were! My only con: whoever opened them didn't lift the oyster (separate it from the shell) on any of them. It made for a messy first one. Steamers: the menu didn't specify they are steamed in garlic and maybe seasoning. I ended up asking if they could redo without - I like em as the gods intended. They were more than gracious and gave me a new order. OMG THEY WERE SO GOOD! It's a generous 1.5lb portion with clarified butter and steamed to perfection. Everyone let me try theirs and of the other 3 meals, the baked bay scallops were hands down a little piece of heaven and a generous portion. Scrod was a solid fine and the chicken had a sausage stuffing, which is never my ideal. I personally don't like meat in my stuffing - so I can't review that without being biased. My wife said it was okay but the broccoli au gratin was "amazing" everyone loved that. Nothing like cheese on veggies! Oh! One of us got clam chowder and I tried it. Nice flavour; a hit of pepper along with the clam flavor and chunks of potato. Along with dinner were warmed rolls - which we ordered another round of. Yeah. So good. All in all it was a nice evening out, we didn't feel rushed, great service and the food was very good overall. A few off marks but not nearly anything that would put me off to coming back. I would suggest putting the items the steamers are made with in the description, so people know. Thanks Crows Nest! Cheers! read more

It was my first time trying Crows Nest and has been on my hit list for months now, I am happy I finally got a chance to try it. The restaurant was wide open and quiet but the hostess sat us in the worst seat of the house so I asked to move. The waitress was so sweet and very accommodating and moved our seats into a booth with no hesitation. She turned the experience right around and was attentive, friendly, and quick. The restaurant is located by the water in Warwick. It has a modern nautical atmosphere. The restaurant is super clean! One of my favorite things is the thoughtful decor. It gave Rhody vibes with a beautiful fish tank, octopus wallpaper, and a seashell chandelier. I do wish that the food matched the atmosphere. For the price on the menus, I was disappointed that they have frozen broccoli vs. fresh broccoli. I got a wide variety of food to try: the stuffies, chowder & clam cakes, stuffed shrimp, Caesar salad, and boneless fried chicken. My favorite thing was the stuffies. read more

This restaurant is right next to a marina and has a great view of the water. The decor is nice and coastal. The hostess and server were great! Now onto the star of the show, the food and drinks! Both of our cocktails were delicious and well made. The lobster roll phenomenal and the stuffed shrimp were also very yummy. Definitely a place worth stopping in for a lunch with a beautiful view! Parking can be limited, but that is the only negative! read more

We heard the Crows nest had a new owner so we tried it again. They did a great job making it super coastal looking inside & a great outside covered bar area & dining . We had nachos first they were great then we all had something different. The small plate portion scrod was just the right side. The server was fantastic totally in the weeds with serving most of the patio but she was so sweet & funny the rest didn't matter then the staff were all hands on deck they got so busy . We weren't rushed to us that worth a star lol read more

Tonight was our second time with Maia, we came to the patio a couple of weeks ago with a close friend who we haven't connected with in several months, she checked in with us several times and showed patience and courtesy for our time together, it was an amazing experience!

Went with friends! Love the ambiance and decor. The bar has it own room which is nice and dining room on other side. The service was great we were able to be seated fast and she was tentative. The food delicious! 5 stars! Everything we ordered from the soup to seafood dishes, past with shrimp, and stuffed chicken excellent! My husband said the whole belly clams were great, not too big or small for the belly's and good portion. Drinks were great too! Overall, I'd definitely recommend and go again! read more

Chowder was very good. Taste was much different than anything I have had before, plenty of clams. The potato's were a bit undercooked. Swordfish was fantastic as well as the baked stuffed shrimp. Very nice decor and friendly staff. Arrive early, parking can be a challenge. read more

An old family go-to. We usually love it here. But last weekend we paid 35$ for a small bowl of about maybe 20 steamers, many with broken shells,. It was so disappointing!!!!! Market value?!?! No way. Our fault for not asking the price. Today we enjoyed local steamers from the market....6.5 lbs for 30$ read more

Why not have larger baked stuffed lobster??? You should offer 2and 4 pound lobsters Lazy man style's Your price on the one an a half is almost double in price ftom other Rey Any reason?? You could mount offering at least counter lobsters or 3 pounds read more

We usually go here maybe once or twice a year. Food is good and it's really nice in the summer when you can sit on the deck. I like to get steamers whenever we go since I don't have the opportunity to get them too often. Price for what you get is a bit steep and have to say the last batch was pretty disappointing as there were a lot of broken shells in the mix. Even after dipping them in the broth I was spitting out pieces of shells. Mentioned it to the waitress so hopefully someone got the message. read more

Great find! We didn't have reservations so we had a cocktail at the bar before we were seated . Very friendly bartender. We had espresso martinis, my husband ordered a Negroni. Drinks were excellent. We were seated about 15 min later on the outside deck. It was a crisp beautiful night and temperature was good. Service was great ambience was great, overlooking the harbor. I ordered the broiled scrod with broccoli gratin and rice pilaf. It was excellent! My husband had the fried chicken and said it was excellent. My daughter had the baked scallops which she said she enjoyed. We also shared clams casino which were very good. We highly recommend Crows Nest. read more

I was recently here for a celebration of life after a funeral. The room we were in was a great size with awesome decor. It held quite a few people. The chosen food options looked delicious.

Looked busy upon entry, but we got seated promptly! Greatly appreciated that! Our server was kind and attentive to our plates. Dishes did take time to get to us, but it was full busy house which I understand. We were given our bread basket, and our water was served. She did forget about us at paycheck time~ we had to try to flag down someone for the check and it was awkward. We got a bread! Had three round rolls~ soft, warm, and tasty~ Ordered the raw bar sampler~ little necks were average. Oysters tasted fresh~ shrimp were not my favorite and taste defrosted or like they were out for a while on cold ice. I had the fish and chips small portion which is an option on the menu~ looked very pretty and a good size! I can't imagen a regular size portion just for myself. They made a mistake and didn't replace the coleslaw for broccoli but that was corrected right away~ meal was good. Standard~ fried fish was juicy and savory~ read more

Overall: 3/5 Food: 2/5 - I got the fried shrimp and my bf got the fried scallops. I thought the food was alright - came with 5 pieces of shrimp and two sides (I chose french fries and the garlic knots). The fries were alright- nothing to note but the garlic knots were so oily and greasy - it made me feel so icky eating them. The shrimp didn't come with any sauce so the flavor was just alright. Service - 4/5 : Our server was nice and the food came out pretty fast. I liked the vibe/ambiance of the place and it was clean. Value: 3/5 - My total came to around $28 with tip and I just don't think the value is there for the taste, quality, and quantity of the food. I honestly think the food taste is something that could be made from frozen food and the garlic knots were just so greasy I don't understand the hype (?) of this place. Overall, I think the strongest upside of this place is its location, ambiance, and vibes. The food and value is not there and I won't be coming back or recommending. read more

Great job on the inside of the restaurant and very friendly service. Awesome options on the menu ranging from many seafood dishes to pasta dishes and even sandwiches. Whether you are a seafood eater or not cries nest will have something that catches your attention on their menu. I went with the boneless fried chicken and really enjoyed it. My GF had the baked stuff shrimp. We also split a Caesar salad, a Portuguese stuffy, and clam cakes & chowder. Aside from the boneless chicken and the stuffy, we would opt for something else next time on the menu since they have some other great options to choose from. Overall, really enjoyed the decor and friendly staff which would prob be the only reason we come back to give it another shot. read more

Another amazing experience at the Crows Nest! We came here last week to celebrate my in-laws's birthdays. My husband made the reservations ahead of time. When we arrived, the table was thoughtfully decorated with a sign and little gold stars scattered across it. The food was tasty, and we indulged in three different desserts that did not disappoint. This place is one of our favorite summertime spots since it is close to our marina, but has proven to consistently be on point in the off season as well. P.S. The gluten free options are a pleasant surprise. Thanks for providing food choices that inclusively accommodate our diverse dietary needs! read more
