We had a really great experience at Great White in Brentwood. We turned up without a reservation and were pleasantly surprised to be seated immediately. The host was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly, which set the tone for the rest of the meal.
Service throughout was excellent — relaxed, efficient, and personal without ever feeling overbearing. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and made a few recommendations that really paid off. It’s clear the staff care about both the food and the customer experience, which made the whole evening feel effortless and enjoyable.
I ordered the black cod, which came with sautéed mushrooms, spinach, and a side of black rice. The cod was perfectly cooked — tender, flaky, and full of flavor. The mushrooms and spinach were rich and earthy, and the black rice was a great contrast in texture and taste. Everything felt thoughtfully put together and well-balanced. My friend had the smoked salmon pizza with a side salad, which was also excellent — the crust was light and crisp, the toppings fresh, and nothing felt overly heavy or greasy.
For dessert, we shared the chocolate mousse. It was smooth, rich, and deeply chocolatey without being too sweet — a great way to finish the meal.
The atmosphere is stylish but laid-back, making it a great place for a casual dinner that still feels special. It’s not trying too hard, which makes it all the more enjoyable. We never felt rushed, and even though it got busier as the night went on, the service stayed consistent.
Overall, Great White Brentwood really delivered — great food, excellent service, and a relaxed, welcoming vibe. It’s rare to find a place that hits all three, but this one does. Will absolutely come back.
