Brix

We have been coming here for years and love Brix. The renovation is beautiful and opens up the space a lot. It definitely makes the restaurant feel different and takes away a little bit of the charm, but it’s the best for the restaurant. The food was good and the staff were friendly and helpful as always. The prices have gone up quite a bit and while the food is good, I just don’t think that the cheese board is worth $50+ dollars. We will be back because Brix is absolutely one of the best in Flag!

Great place to celebrate a special occasion. Enjoy a date night or just wow you're a taste buds. Brix has one of the best wine lists in Flagstaff but cocktails to match. We thoroughly enjoyed that Arizona sake cocktail that was right and refreshing. The food is all high quality with fantastic scallops. Grouper was the special for the evening and that was absolutely cooked to perfection. But the baseline for any good restaurant. It's the vegetables and their vegetable platter was on point which just sets the foundation for your entire meal. If you can get the patio seating that is quite enjoyable during the nicer time of year as it reminds you of an almost British style restaurant with the trees and vines growing around the tables.

I had the steak, but don't expect a steak like your in Texas. That being said, it was excellent though could of been a bit more warmer. The fries were perfect, and I had a very tasty chocolate mousse cake for dessert. Great service. Interesting artwork.

Had the most wonderful dinner with Fiancé at Brix. Cierra was a wonderful server and made sure everything was perfect! Everyone we came into contact with were so kind and helpful. The ribeye and duck were phenomenal, and the creme brulee and raspberry ginger sorbet was fantastic as well! We also got to meet with Rebecca to talk about having our reception here for our wedding. She was kind and so helpful. I look forward to working with her more and the amazing reception to come!

Ambiance - 5/5 Service - 5/5 Food - 5/5 Value - 4/5 The menu is diverse and creative. The roast duck and duckfat grits were incredible and I highly recommend it, i just wish I had a little more plum reduction! The bolognese was executed well - perfect texture, and the noodle had a delightful savory quality all on its own, without even the sauce (which was also very good, if not on the salty side). There were too many interesting options from the starters but I enjoyed the complexity of the mushroom tortellini. Although the portions are small, everything else is excellent. The service was stellar and the atmosphere is very tasteful and intimate. Perfect for a date night!

Excellent! Excellent food, service and atmosphere. Highly recommend if you are in the Flagstaff area. My girlfriend and I ordered the charcuterie board which featured domestic and imported cheese, assorted fruits, crackers and baguettes. It was exceptional. I ordered the duck breast and slaw which appeared to be pan seared and seasoned wonderfully. The duck breast was extremely tender and cooked to perfection. It was my birthday and they accompanied my dinner with a complementary sugar shot and creme brulee. This restaurant is in my top 5 of all time favorites.

The staff were incredible, personable and very Flagstaff, dishes plated with care and artistry, ingredients locally sourced and paired with skill. The market fish I ordered was phenomenal, as were the dishes my party ordered. The venue itself is beyond gorgeous. We came on a quiet night and were so lucky to get some extra attention from the kitchen. Not pictured - amongst others, a seasonal Prickly Pear Pink Pepper sorbet which was to die for.

Sam is a fun, witty, knowledgeable bartender. He has the type of superior, service sensitivity that is lacking in most restaurants. His descriptions and recommendations made for an outstanding, date night...even at the counter. Sam recommended their skillet warmed olives which have deep, complex flavors made with much respect to the local olive farmers. The sourdough loaf with butter and olive oil paired well with our wines. Their skilled chef expertly sliced the most beautiful, local beef for our perfectly sliced carpaccio! Be sure to order the elk loin. It was also wonderfully prepared. Thank you for a memorable evening, Brix❤

I am mixed to slightly negative on this place. I definitely recommend sitting inside as that provides an ambiance commiserate with the amazing food. Outback is nice but kinda casual and cold. Food was excellent. Not a wine bar really. Not a bar that you can sit and hang out at. I'll think again about doing a $60 entree and a $20 glass of wine here. In summary, amazing food but their pricing is aggressive (I don't care), and I'd love to see some 2015 ish wines on the list.

I visited on a weekday and the front of the restaurant was empty so I had to wait for a host or staff person to greet me. I walked around near the outdoor area of the restaurant before a staff person noticed me. Once greeted I was promptly seated outside on the patio which is a nice garden space. Being outside there were quite a few flies and gnats that increased as I was being served food (a fly flew and got stuck in my glass of wine but it was promptly exchanged for another glass once I let the staff know). The menu is farm to table and you can definitely taste the freshness of the ingredients. I didn't enjoy the Caesar salad as the leaves were large and spilling off and out of the plate making it a little messy to eat. The bolognese was presented well and was very good. I did try the non alcoholic cocktail pomegranate lavender which was nearly flavorless but the red wine I chose was amazing. There is a parking lot at restaurant and street parking nearby

The duck magret was pure perfection! I'm salivating just thinking of it right now. The noble bread was super soft inside and had a nice crunchy crust. The shareable mushrooms were earthy and nicely roasted too. I had a taste of my coworkers steak frites and thought it was a bit dry. Bolognese was ok. The chocolate torte and salted caramel gelato were the perfect sweet end to the meal. Service was attentive and friendly too. 4.5 stars rounded up.

This restaurant has a very nice patio. The staff are attentive and friendly. Reservation is recommended as they do get busy. We had steak, bolognese, Brussels sprouts and the meatballs.

Wonderful dinner spot in Flagstaff, had the duck breast , lions mane mushroom & fennel soup & dark & stormy crème brûlée for dessert ... all was excellent!

Love Brix. Our "date night" restaurant in Flagstaff these past 10 years. First class each time! The best. Now you're closed. May your future endeavors touch people like Brix! Much love

Super cute restaurant in the heart of Flagstaff. I ordered the asparagus appetizer and bolognese entree. Both were amazing. Service was great, our server was very knowledgeable. Will definitely return when I'm in the area again.

Decided to try Brix and it looked good on the outside.. was in town visiting my best friend and wanted a more upmarket dinner.. The menu offerings were good, however they are very small portions and quite expensive for what you actually get. We had several dishes; my wife had the gnocchi and there was only 6 gnocchi in the serving and the smoked mushroom ragu was not so good.. the flavours just didn't do well. My wife barely ate her dish and ended up sharing my mates dish and my dish, which was the veggie lasagna - it was ok but extremely thin (1" high) and wasn't like a traditionally tall lasagna. Be prepared if you think you're getting a large slab of lasagna - you are not. I had the Norwegian halibut which was nice, which was also shared. We had a cocktail each and all were excellent, which was the redeeming aspect of the night. The table bread was very nice and served with either an infused butter & olive oil, which was also nice. We didn't stay for dessert, as options were a little limited. Overall, Brix is fine if you want to take someone on a date and have small portions, but if you're really hungry, you may want to consider other options. The location is in the old Flagstaff coach house, which has been renovated very nicely.

Our second visit, and it was as great as the first! So delicious. Fran took great care of our party of 4, and we all loved our meals.

Food and drinks delicious. I was there for a rehearsal dinner and maybe they were short handed but the service was awful.

Food and bar was super nice!!! The bar and new Brussels sprouts were seasoned and portioned great with rice medley!

Eh! I really had high hopes for this restaurant but was sadly under impressed. Service was so-so, food was fine but not amazing and definitely not for the $$$. The patio was beautiful and so was the weather. That and some red wine made the evening somewhat worth it, but the food-eh! With so many other amazing restaurants in Flagstaff, we'll never visit here again.

The food is amazing! The cocktails are fabulous and the service is spectacular! I had the vegetarian risotto with mushrooms and ccarrots. Delicious! My DIL had the chicken, son had the pork chops and hubby had the steak and everyone raved about their meats as well as their sides. We started with a cheese and meat tray and cleaned the platter! Enough said...this is a must when in Flagstaff!

Loved the food here! We celebrated our anniversary and would love to come back in the future

I made reservations for my wife and I to have dinner. I chose Brix because I wanted a nicer place and had been disappointed by the other local choices. When we arrived we were greeted by the friendly hostess who showed us to our table. We found the atmosphere in the indoor dining area to be quite intimate. The bar area was a bit more lively. Intimacy was very fitting for our purposes. The waitress was attentive and informative. She advised us that the food is made fresh so the kitchen prefers orders to be placed in full so they may prepare your courses without delay. We had the bread, which was absolutely delicious, and hummus for our starters. The hummus was outstanding and probably ruined other hummus for me. Both of our main courses were perfection. Unfortunately there isn't a single thing on the menu that doesn't look and sound delicious so we will have to be back several times.

Never again! Diners please make sure that if you pay with a cc you write something on the "tip" line. Whether it be a tip in whichever amount, a line or something ... because on top f the CASH tip that we handed to the waitress ... someone added themselves a $40 tip onto the credit card receipt. Yes he learned from this experience not to ever leave that line blank. FYI we did file a dispute with the cc company, but the restaurant fought it ... and seriously how do you argue that ‍

I went back after 2 years to just get the bolognese pasta and I asked if it was the same or if they have changed the recipe , I was told still the same. To begin that's that plate/presentation looks like a high end restaurant, NO! The bolognese was bad but I ate it, I was basically so ready to have just a meal after a long day. I even told them it was not the same, well they couldn't care less.. never going back here ! I drove two hours just to eat here . Never going back and if you do go don't order this bolognese

WOW is what I can say about this restaurant. SO GORGEOUS!!! I played a wedding and we had cocktail hour, reception here and the atmosphere is PERFECT for the intimate, romantic wedding. Probably the most gorgeous restaurant I've played at for a wedding. The staff is super nice and the food is amazing. Can't wait to play here again!

A great little place with very nice staff and excellent food. The board was a nice starter and the menu was eclectic. We went with the Spanish pig cheek and the steak. Both were awesome. Colleen was very attentive to our requests. The wine went very well with both meals. Met chef Logan very kind of him to allow me a moment of his time to share how much we enjoyed his place and his food.

Came here hoping for a nice dinner knowing it was pricey and the food wasn't good. It took 15 min just to get water. Very nice staff, nothing against them ..but not worth the money

Great food along with amazing service and beautiful ambiance. The chicken dish we had was delicious. I will be back.

I love Brix! They are a Flagstaff must. From the polished and friendly service to the relaxed bistro vibes and of course delicious food! Brix is one of my favorite places in Arizona for all those reasons. They love what they do and they support local farmers and purveyors, which is so important! The food is high quality and worth the price, in my opinion. Their wine list is also lovely and thoughtful. We briefly had a taste of Brix when they had Proper in downtown Tucson. So a visit to Flagstaff always includes a stop by Brix.

I'm giving 4 stars but the ambiance and service here get 5 stars. I had the steak and frites, medium rare, and the best part of the meal was the frites. My partner had the gnocchi and said she would not order it again. They charge an extra 3% if you use a credit card. Come on... we don't even see that in north Scottsdale. We have been here several times over the years. We will wait awhile before we go back.

What a lovely restaurant! As soon as you walk in, you can tell there was much thought put into the design and ambience! We were greeted almost immediately at the host stand and taken to our reserved table. Hailey was our server, and she was nothing short of professional, knowledgeable, and proficient! Her descriptions of the entrées were impeccable, as was the presentation of the food when it arrived... perfectly timed, perfectly plated, and absolutely beyond expectations. wonderful flavor combinations! (Do yourself a favor and get the brie as one of your selections if you go for the charcuterie board!) Great job, Brix & Hailey~ you're knocking it out of the park. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Unfortunately, it wasn't as good as it has been in the past. The charcuterie board lacked the care it used to receive. No wonderful warm olives, no homemade preserves, spreads, mustards , or spiced nuts(instead they served their signature trail mix which was something you could buy at Sprouts). The lavish was burned. The new expanded dining room was loud, cold without white tables cloths. We missed the intimate feel of the bar and the kitchen. Brix was always our special occasion restaurant. No longer.

The entire experience is one I cannot wait to repeat. From the service to the setting to the food and wine. The new menu is wonderful - something for everyone (meat lovers and vegetarians alike). The chef works to suit your particulars. The service is top notch. We were surprised to find the happy hour menu and our entire meal came off that menu. We will be back! Thank you Brix.

Just WOW. This place far exceeded my expectations. It was worth the 45 min drive in 26* weather and a little accidentally fall. Pro: + classy comfy ambiance. No music, which was odd for me at first. However, it made the evening catching up with a friend more personable. + attentive waiter + parking lot available next to restaurant. Not need to pay for street parking and fall on loose asphalt down the block like me LOL! + each plate was so delectable. + a lot of food options, for vegetarians too. Con: - when we called to make reservations, they said they were booked. However, we did see plenty of open seating during our hour stay. Will definitely be back whenever I'm in Flagstaff!

We ate at Brix tonight. The food was outstanding. The food is all made in house from the pasta to the incredible bread and European butter. Our server Fran was incredible. Bri'x is lucky to have her. If you want the best dining experience from food service and ambiance. Look no further. Book ahead. David and Bethany

Finally got a chance to visit Brix. I was not disappointed at all. The food was amazing. I ordered the Bolognese. The waitress did tell me it was going to be the best Bolognese ever and she was not lying. Our waitress was very informative and very professional. The overall service, timing of drinks to appetizers, appetizers to main course, main course to dessert, was perfect. Our server checked on us in timely manners and always keep our drinks filled. I loved the ambiance. The decor was so soothing and relaxing. The lighting made you feel welcomed and cozy. Oh, and the restroom was spotlessly clean and charmingly decorated. We will be returning for sure!!!!

Our server was prompt, friendly, and knew the menu. She was only reason for 2/5 star. For price point and quality of food served, Brix falls short. Appetizers were okay. Entrees were not good. Appetizers included field salad, beet salad, elk tartare, and roasted eggplant. Salads were fine, nothing to scream about. Roasted eggplant was just 2 slices of eggplant topped with sunflower seeds and sautéed (?) grapes. Elk tartare was tasty. Entrees included duck breast, soup of the day (mushroom), and cavatelli with rabbit sausage. Duck breast was very dry and only came with two 0.50" slices. Cavatelli was over cooked and soggy. Mushroom soup was not discernible from canned soup.

Flagstaff, admittedly, lacks significant fine dining. After a hiatus of several years, four of us, all Flagstaff residents, gave Brix another try this evening. The positive: Brix has a lovely patio for dining, and has significantly improved the inside dining room. Unfortunately, the food does not come close to filling a need for fine dining in Flagstaff. All four meals were mediocre and uncreative. Unfortunately for Brix, a pretentious menu, does not change bland , uncreative food, and results only in an overpriced meal. One example only: Sprinkling a bit of chili powder and a few cashews on a plate of greens does not result in a quality salad, nor justify the $15. price. There are other restaurants in Flagstaff ( example Josephine's) with better food, lacking the pretension and the undeserved high prices.

Truthfully one of the best dinners I've had in a long time. The service was exceptional and the restaurant had a very cozy and intimate vibe. We ordered the warm olives and bread to start, which were both incredible. For our entrees, we both ordered the bolognese... we haven't stopped talking about it since. You could tell that every aspect of that plate was natural, organic ingredients, just simply based on the way we felt after eating. We were full, but not typical pasta full. We could have eaten 4 more plates of it. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate torte and the crème brûlée which were both so tasty. I don't have enough good things to say about this place, but I would come back to Flagstaff just to experience it again!

Visited Brix for our anniversary dinner. Worth the drive from Sedona to Flag. A great spot for a special occasion dinner, it's intimate yet cozy. I had the roasted duck and my husband tried the New York strip. The plating of the duck was lovely! Some reviews on here mention slow service or time to get meal. Being a more relaxed intimate dining experience, that seems to be expected. We had a wonderful server and enjoyed our meal and cocktails. Highly recommend!

This place is great. An amazing experience all around. My wife didn't have one bad thing to say - a first.

Food was good, but portions were incredibly small. I literally got maybe a 1/2 cup of gnocchi.

Excellent food, great wine list, wonderful service and really good ambiance. Would definitely recommend!!

Went back here recently. While I'm sure the food is still good we didn't stick around to find out. The acoustics in this restaurant are awful. Something has clearly changed because it wasn't like that the last time we were here. You couldn't hear yourself let along someone sitting right next to you. I suspect concrete floors and high ceilings are the culprit. I asked the hostess if we could sit outside which was only half full. Nope. I then asked if we could sit in the bar area which was empty. Nope. At that, we just left.

Really good food and great service. Located a few blocks from the main drag. Restaurant is pretty small so make reservations. They have a full service bar if you can't get a table and heard that they have a patio as well. Most everything on this menu sounded so good so of course started with wine and the poached lobster claw. It's a light appetizer that you can share for a few bites each or eat alone and still not feel stuffed. It has nice sized chunks of lobster claw in light mayo type sauce with avocado and cucumber. For my entree, ordered the cavatelli, the waitress was sure to mention that they freshly make their pasta which is always a huge plus. The mix of sausage, mushroom and kale was perfect and for me the size of the entree was just enough. I also had a bite of the duck and it was cooked perfectly. Ambiance is intimate without being pretentious with white table clothes, candles and art on the walls. Would definitely go back to try other dishes on their menu.

Exceptional. One of the best restaurants in the USA. Great service, talented chef. Great experience

I have dined here a number of times over the years, but we will not be back after tonight's experience. I am giving two stars because our wait person did make an effort but the food was really sub par. My husband would rather chew glass than send back an entree but my duck was not cooked, cold and mushy in the middle. The croquets were also under done and mushy. So back it went, not once but twice. The second time the plate was warm enough that I was able to slice the duck thin and lay it out--essentially cooking it at the table. This review would not have been posted if the manager had left the duck off our bill or if a comped dessert was offered. Not something we would have looked for, but would have salvaged a disastrous meal.

I have been to Brix two times over the last year and each time I went I left disappointed. The food is good, but not great and certainly not at this price level. But it's just not the food, it's the staff, from the time you check in at the front desk to the food servers, they just don't make your meal enjoyable - they are not accommodating, they make you feel that your lucky just to be there getting served a meal. I have worked in fine dining restaurants for years and at the restaurants I worked at it was our honor to serve our guests not the other way around. We worked hard to give them a memorable evening - we were there to serve them and make their meal as enjoyable as possible. I won't be going back to Brix's again, there are just too many other good restaurants in Flagstaff that are more enjoyable.

It's been over a decade since I've enjoyed Brix and we were eager to celebrate our anniversary there. Service could be sharper and genuinely appears disinterested. A disappointing welcome with an unprepared hostess to seat reservations at the opening. It appears that the shifts could open at least 15 minutes earlier to be ready to greet prompt patrons. Menu was limited but we were eager to try their pasta dishes. Unfortunately the stylish bolognese was served with lukewarm noodles. The field greens salad had greens from a bag and slivers of grapefruit; this salad could really pop if the kitchen wasn't stingy with the ingredients, including the dressing. We did enjoy the chocolate mouse dessert but felt that the kitchen could have dressed the plate just a bit. Check out my recent review of the amazing desserts at a restaurant in Globe: a $15 price tag is an opportunity to wow you, not to inspire regret. Atmosphere was enjoyable and the artwork is pleasant. Simply concur with other reviewers that the price point at Brix is not met with stellar service or eats.

Food was great service was mediocre at best . We went with a party of 6 . The restaurant added the 30% large party gratuity to out bill ( which I expect) then our server insisted on 2 different occasions that was not considered the tip and we needed to leave an additional tip. Also she gave us each 4 oz of water and never refilled us ever . I had to personally go ask for more water from the bar. With the 20% mandated gratuity she made over 100$ off our party and hardly did anything . Needless to say we did not leave an additional tip. It was very awkward. Probably won't go back

Fran was very accommodating and incredibly nice. Food was good and the extension was pretty with the fire place.

One of my favorite dining experiences in Flagstaff. Amazing cocktails/wine and cheese boards. Very intimate dining setting. Love the brick throughout and ambient lighting. The restaurant can be cold at times being extra layers. The patio is very delightful on a summer night. Tonight we went for a margarita wine three cheese board ribeye squash soup frites and bread. Everyone at my table loved their meal and best meal I have had here in years! Best gelato and winter fruit crumble was ok for dessert but wouldn't recommend.

what happened? Brix used to be a good restaurant. No more. Four of us went to celebrate a birthday. We ordered a large board as an appetizer. The presentation was atrocious. The selection of food was scanty and poorly served. For example, the goat cheese was just a smear on the board. The lavash was piled on top of the board with no attempt to give an additional plate to move it for service. (Brix could learn about boards from Oneo wine bar ) That was the first disappointment. My husband ordered the prime rib. the meat was poorly cooked and it was not a good cut. The other entrées were lackluster and nothing was worth the price that we paid. Too bad.

It's really expensive and for no reason! The menu is mediocre at best, the food is cafeteria quality, the staff is inattentive and lazy. I had to ask twice to get my drink refilled. It's also really dreary and poorly decorated. I have no idea how they are justifying their crazy prices.

This places has amazing food but it's takes entirely too long to get your food. We had a private event and they struggled to time the food. We all wanted to go home but still had not received our food. Recently I went with a smaller group and we again waited at least an hour for food. They forgot and entree but was able to get the to go order placed later first. Ha ha. This place would be 4+ if they could get the timing down. Food is out of this world!

Great food and drinks. We had appetizers and a board which were all great and well proportioned. Interesting food that was presented very well. We split an entree which was a very small portion size but tasty. Also had a desert which was fine. Very pricey for what it was and I honestly think this place was the last "New American" dining experience I can handle. It's so boring at this point and the final straw was the note they left with the bill about "merchant processing fees". What a joke. First and last time I'll eat here.
