Herald Sun Stephen Downes, 29-07-08 Score: 13/20 "Hotel Nest serves correct standard brasserie out of 20 A dishes that barely reach the boundaries, let alone push beyond them. The wine list is excellent in length and variety, but hugely expensive. Very few bottles are in the $30 range, and six table whites and five reds come by the glass."
Herald Sun 10-06-08 Score: *** "Refined food from a highly accomplished chef set this place apart from most foodie pubs: superb steak tartare, chicken liver parfait, ox-cheek on mash, the chef's own peach Melba you decide"

Herald Sun Bob Hart, 01-03-08 "since the coining of the unfortunate word "gastropub'" , which may once have constituted a health warning, pubs have lifted their games. To the point where some very fine food can be found in them, and at prices more realistic than those asked by fashionable restaurants. I can think of no better example of this than Hotel Nest - a pub in Albert Park, formerly known as the Red Eagle."
