BrisaBar

Brisa Bar at Campus Martius is truly a vibe! The atmosphere makes me feel like I’m on tropical time every time I visit. The service is always outstanding—especially from Aryana, who goes above and beyond. Food and drinks are consistently 10/10. Definitely one of my favorite spots in Detroit!

True fire atmosphere. Bright lights big city feel for real. Sweltering heat but the vibe was cool.

OK, there’s a bartender that works her name Felicia she is the bomb.com love the atmosphere and the vibe the drinks around point

I went for trivia on Tuesday. The bartender was the problem. Black man with braids with a terrible attitude. He act like he didn’t want to serve us. Laughing and being friendly to the white customers, but nasty attitude when it came to us. A black couple upstairs got the same treatment and he informed them that he was the manager. Wow. However, I did love the trivia and the strawberry slush drink. Sadly, Might have to find another place to do trivia and spend my money at.

We stopped in for one quick drink. Cute atmosphere and the drinks were $9 each on Sunday afternoon so very reasonable. I had the bubblegum cocktail and husband had beam and breeze mojito. Both were very tasty. We will come back!

Had a great time enjoying this cool outdoor bar. Good scene. The bartender, Aryana, was friendly and made me some great Micheladas. I was amazed she spoke 4 languages and once rescued a baby penguin in Antarctica.

Had dinner here with my wife would definitely recommend, really good food and different drinks to choose from! Our server Aryana was super nice and made sure we had everything we needed. I would definitely be coming back!!

Emily went above and beyond for us. Great attitude. Pleasant. Always a smile on her face. Very attentive. We will come back to have her wait on us.

What a super cool unique spot downtown Detroit! We walked over from a nearby hotel to let our daughter run around in the sand while we enjoyed dinner and drinks. The staff was friendly and let us pick a table near the beach rather than in their bar area with the DJ. The menu isn't huge but they have a variety of things which allowed us to share a bunch of stuff. A kids menu would be nice but this turns into adults only after 9pm anyways. They had chicken tenders which is perfect for kids. The food was surprisingly good! We all enjoyed the wings, onion rings, wraps, and my daughter had the chicken tenders. They were out of a few drinks which seemed weird and kinda annoying but the slushy cocktail was delicious. We would come back!

Imagine an outside bar atmosphere where you literally feel like you're on a beach! So glad we stopped here on our date day downtown. It was a dream to be able to stick my toes in the sand while sipping a delicious cocktail... while in the D!! They also have a small light bites menu, which includes apps, salads, and sandwiches. Our server sat and chatted with us and was helpful with recommendations, and we greatly enjoyed our drinks! Such a relaxing, laid-back environment with fun seating and awesome music! Happy hour is M-F 3-6p and BrisaBar closes for the season on September 15th. I will definitely be watching for their reopening for the Summer '24 season!

Drinks are nice and the energy is fun. Service is a bit slow, but tends to be ok when you are in a conversation or when they are slightly less busy. The ambiance is defiantly the reason to come, having a beach in the middle of downtown detroit is amazing. Recommend for the ambiance and a unique place to escape the city within the city

The bartenders here were super rude - and they add gratuity to the bills without telling anyone. They don't even give you a copy of your receipt just the copy you can sign. I realized because the menu said the drink was $12, we had two drinks. Our bill was $30. Then when asked the bartenders didn't want to answer the question. This is very shady.

So this is a cool spot! It's actually outside in campus martius, And if it's a nice day this is a really great place to be. You're right in the center of downtown on Woodward. It's a good walk from everything, well a lot of things. Baba bar, food, there's a restaurant about 20 yards away, it's a one-stop shop if you are walking around downtown. I thought that the service was pretty good, we spoke to the waitresses in Great length and had a good conversation, they made time to come and talk to us. I can appreciate that! If I was coming downtown and walking around for the night, I might would in and have a drink again!

I love going to the beach in the middle of downtown! I appreciate that this is annual summer thing now in Campus Martius. A great chance to put my feet in the sand. This is a great Happy Hour destination. This beach bar has fun seating, cool vibes, and great music. Excellent service from Brandon. The drinks are tasty and the truffle fries are delicious!

The best option is to eat before you go downtown. The food selections are so limited and overpriced. A hamburger is about $18 and your condiment selections are limited. You can't even get onions on it. Fries are separately priced, chips were an option. Drinks are okay. The ambiance is the best.

Great vibes, awesome service, and tasty snacks! This is a pop up spot in Campus Martius that offers lots of outdoor seating (tables and bar top) and music! It was a bit on the pricier side but overall was a fun place to try. We got the wings and fries, and a drink off the cocktail menu. The drink was tasty but again a bit on the pricey side for what it was. I really enjoyed the small plates we got though!

BrisaBar is located in the heart of Campus Martius Park. If you're out and about in the city, this is a cool spot to grab a drink and check out the action. During the summer season, this area is always on slam. Tonight they had a live Reggae band entertaining the crowd. We stopped by on our way to another spot and grabbed a cocktail. They do serve food, too. I would most certainly check it out before the season ends.

This was my first time at this bar. The scenery is nice. There is a small sand area with seats. My friends and I sat at a table for six. There was a 20% gratuity added to the bill. I ordered shrimp tacos which came with fries and the kiss on the beach cocktail. My friends also ordered drinks. Most of our drinks were watery. I did try one of the bucket drinks. It was tasty. I loved the tacos. I tried my friend's lobster roll. It is served cold and did not care for it. Maybe if it was warm it would of been better.

Decided to give this place another chance after the last time I went with friends (long story short the vibe of the place was cool, food was good, but the service was slow and my group got overcharged $60 on our tab). We sat down for 20 minutes with water before being told that the kitchen was now closed (at 7pm) due to an accident (believe they said a fire). Our waitress knew we weren't getting drinks already, so I'm not quite sure why our time was wasted. Seeing as it is my birthday and we just stopped in for quick food (and let the hostess know that as we were being seated), I was pretty dissatisfied. I also told the hostess excitedly that it was my birthday when she asked how our day was going and she responded immediately, "We don't do anything special here for that if that's what you're looking for". While I wasn't "looking for anything", I thought that was unprofessional and bad service. I understand wanting to be upfront, but there's a classier way to respond to customers. Again, you can have an attractive place with a great concept, but it means nothing if your service is consistently bad. As much as I LOVE the concept of a beach bar in the city, I won't be returning.

Perfect night in downtown Detroit. Cocktails on the beach Excellent service from Brandon On of my favorite places. I had an Aperol Spritz and a perfectly cooked hamburger with truffle fries!

I didn't know detroit even had such a place! I came here with my two gfs for a little pre game and our server jacob was the best! He was quick with our drinks not to mention the blackberry mule was delicious!!! Thank you jacob for a night me and the girls needed

I've been coming to this place for 5 years - no issues until now. Servers are great but new management is rude to the staff and food service stops at 1:30pm on one of the busiest weekends of the year. The new manager (Dominique) needs to be ousted for everyone's sake. This place used to be the best! **I also watched Dom scoop chips for multiple orders with her bare unwashed hands, which is disgusting and inconsiderate as even the food runners wear gloves.

Great service, a little slow over the holiday weekend to be expected. Awesome ambience. Thanks Dom & Alicia!

Such a cool bar right in Campus Martius! My sister got engaged right in front of the bar and Bria made us amazing shots!!! Such a pretty scenery with gorgeous decorations a beautiful 4 season outdoor patio right in front of the foundation in beautiful downtown!

Fun outdoor bar right in the heart of Detroit. Has a beach. Think about that. Angel took care of us great lady!

Very cool spot to stop for a snack and a drink. Big shout out to Kiwi, our server, who doubled as a super salad maker Also, big love to Nisha (hope I spelled that right) who filled up my water on my way out. Yummy drinks and excellent service.

Had a lot of high hopes and honestly loved it, atmosphere and location are amazing! Food and drinks were delicious BUT it's all fun and games until service doesn't keep up. Our server rarely checked back in with us and service felt slow. Though we brushed it off as a busy night until we received our check, that we decided not to have split between all of us due to having to get to somewhere else, a whopping $200+ before tip (for 5 people) with no itemized breakdown at all. First time being there so we brushed it off as we didn't realize it was this expensive. Needless to say later on when looking at the menu versus what we ordered to split the bill ourselves we found we lost $60 before tip. I hope this is a one time thing as I do think this place has amazing potential and hope it doesn't happen again.

Was a little hectic on Memorial Weekend but the manager (Dom) did a great job at managing everything and Alicia our server made sure we were taken care of. Looking forward to 2023 summer here . We did have a party of 6. We wanted to split the bill in half but they told us we could not split the bill in half. So that's why a star is taken off.

Waited 40 minutes for chips and salsa before being told the kitchen was "closed" at 7pm. Terrible service.

I just left brisa and the place is great but there was a person named Dominique who needs to be fired very rude unprofessional everybody around us saw it and it was just awful to see but besides that everything was great food and everything but pls do something about Dominique

I am very disappointed in this restaurant and its service. The food was flavorless and cold. Our waitress Jenna B over charged me for a drink I didn't even get and then added herself an extra tip on my bill. I checked my bank statement and she left herself a 16.92 dollar tip and didn't think I would check my stuff. You didn't even deserve that 16 dollars because you were never at our table. Other table waiters was checking on us more then she was. 1/10 would not recommend just horrible. Don't trust these waiters with your card. If you go here pay cash so they don't scam you.

What an AWESOME place in Detroit!! We had such a good time with a group of friends downtown Detroit. We sat at the Bar and Breah and Angel waited on us. They were AMAZING! The place is such a VIBE. The drinks were great! Truffle fries were bomb and I loved the Caesar salad. Definitely check it out!!

Left because of Dominique, we came for food and margaritas, she closed the kitchen and wouldn't allow the servers to serve food. At 2 pm. They were serving other people food at the bar right by us

Visiting Detroit and came across Brisa Bar. Stephanie's slushees were THE best!! So glad we stopped by, great summer hangout.

Wonderful atmosphere right in the heart of the D! The food is mediocre at best. Chips, salsa & guacamole is not worth $15. They ran out of burgers on a Friday really??

September 4 we seen advertising wanted to check it out it was horrible porter-pot bathroom nasty at that service is the worse . female waitress was rude . . than had the nerve to say I was complaining about getting wet there is no cover if it rain . I don't know how it on hot day but I'm sure waiting hour for a sandwich is not cool no day if you only have few customers . Worse experience I had at any state I travel period do not recommend at all ! zero stars

Came here because we saw it on the news and the food looked good. We waited a bit before the waiter came to our table for service. The service is terrible, staff inattentive. They obviously don't know the table numbers; our food was taken to the wrong tables twice. I was done with my food before my husband even got his food, we sent it back and left. It even took us a bit of time to pay our check. Staff needs a bit more training. Only gave it a 1 star because the atmosphere and music were good.
