    This was a delicious meal with great service and portions. My wife and I dined here for our last night in the Indian Wells area. It was relatively close to the hotel we were staying at and right next door to the Sands Hotel that we were considering staying at. We made reservations, but because it was Labor Day and relatively empty in the dining room we were seated with no wait. There was a live band performing in the bar and dance floor area. You could tell that people were there to celebrate and have a good time. The restaurant is definitely great for locals, but the story of the owner Dodi makes you feel like you're invited to have a meal in her family's home. Our meal started with the baked artichoke dip and once we had it we know we had made the right decision to dine here. My wife won't admit it, but she was worried because there were more people at the bar than in the dining room. I figured it was because our reservations were relatively late on a holiday. From there we both ordered our entrees. Even though I don't really eat red meat, I decided to have the sampler plate because it was listed on the 'Mom's Favorite Recipes'. Reading Dodi's story made me want to experience Bosnian food. It included ground beef wrapped cabbage rolls, spinach pie, and Moussaka a lasagna style eggplant dish with ground beef. The dish was delicious and the presentation was excellent. I probably eat red meat once every 3 years and this meal was worth it. My wife had a delicious chicken picatta, mashed potatoes, and asparagus. We both enjoyed our entrees and the service. I failed to get the name of our waitress but she was attentive and personable. Every time I try to avoid dessert my wife ends up getting the menu and I endulge. On this occasion, at the suggestion of our waitress I had the peanut butter cake. My wife had some kind of strawberry cake that she's been raving about. The food, service, and ambiance were all a reason for us to return. We're considering staying at the Sands hotel next door and that will probably give us an excuse. Who am I kidding? Even if we stay somewhere else we'll definitely come back to try some other things on the menu.

    Came in for a quick drink - it was filled up and lively, loved it! Drinks were pretty good and love the old bar lounge vibe! We'll be back!

    In town for business and first time in Indian Wells - not sure what to expect. The atmosphere reminded me of a Sinatra-Vegas type lounge. Very cozy, yet fun. Half of the building is the restaurant and the other half is a club with live music. The food was phenomenal. My filet was cooked to perfection and the service was amazing.

    Another wonderful experience at the Nest. The food and entertainment was spot on!!! Dodi tries her best to make everyone feel welcomed and special. Truly a gem. Thank you! Food is delicious, had a lot of first timers with me and they absolutely enjoyed their dinner and later the entertainment and dancing. My 82 year old mother-in-law had the most fun dancing amongst some of the nicest people in the desert. Great place with positive energ
