Portside Pier

It was a perfect day to just go for a walk in San Diego. There was many cruises ship at Port. It was a busy. We stop here to eat lunch and the food was fantastic and our service was so spot on soon our drink was halfway, they were there refilling. Didn't take a picture of the food, but I'll tell you this. It was amazing. You have to come here. On a beautiful day or even rainy, be beautiful to look out into the ocean. But this place is well worth it. Cause, come on, even on the outside. They have a coffee shop that you can have and put on your Instagram and everything else, which is amazing. Then you get to see your name written on there. What are your comments that you supply about the coffee? So, it's well worth to come here to eat the fabulous food. Get a coffee and go walking out there or hot Cocoa. On a cool day.

We sat at the bar big mistake too busy making the drinks to wait on us. The 7 Marie soup the shrimp was over cooked like rubber. Chips and salsa Great.

A great place to stop by for foos, snacks or a drink and watch the sunset!

Great place to hang out with friends, grab as drink and enjoy a meal. We just went for drinks to TopSail and really like there vibe. We will definitely come back for food. We had dinner at Brigantine that was just ok, but that's another review.

What a great place for lunch and dinner. You can catch a beautiful sunset looking over the harbor. The Brigantine restaurant and Miguel's are great restaurants.

A nice place for a first date. Specially by the water. I got a crab cake and it was really good. But I don't recommend the shrimp fondue. The cheese is way too thick and dry. Not all gooey and melted. The wagyu burger was juicy and tasted really fresh.

Love it great dining options, and sunset views. Right on the water. Great views of the boats.

BEAUTIFUL VIEWS! Portside Pier has a wonderful selection of restaurant options and specialty food. I highly recommend Miguel’s Cocina, it’s a tasty Mexican restaurant nestled in the heart of Portside Pier. Portside is a mix of a food hall and restaurant hub. There’s a couple of eateries that have a public seating area but if you want something more private and with table service, there’s full-service restaurants nearby! Overall, seafood is obviously the focus at most of the these spots, however there’s also gelato, Mexican and a couple other tasty options. There’s not a bad seat in the area, so you’re bound to have a wonderful view of the water, docks and Coronado Island.

Came to The Brigantine on Harbor Drive for a relaxed dinner with a view, and it definitely delivered on atmosphere! Sitting outside with that gorgeous San Diego bay sunset over the water is hard to beat - perfect vibe for a date night or catching up with friends. Food was solid overall: * Fresh oysters were excellent, super fresh and briny. * Fried calamari was crispy and addictive as always. * The jumbo lump crab cake was a highlight - lots of real crab, minimal filler, perfectly cooked. * I went with the crab-stuffed tiger shrimp as my entrée. It was okay, but honestly nothing mind-blowing - the shrimp were a little overpowered by the stuffing and sauce. Bacon was burnt. Decent, just not something I'd rush to order again. Drinks were well-made (nothing crazy inventive, but solid pours and classics done right). Service was genuinely fantastic - our server was attentive, friendly, and timed everything perfectly even though the place was busy. Only real downside is the price - it adds up quick, especially with drinks and apps. You're definitely paying for the prime waterfront location and the Brigantine name, but if you know that going in, it's worth it for a nice evening out. Great spot for seafood lovers who want that classic San Diego harbor experience, especially for happy hour oysters and that killer view!

I'm a visual person, and I like to see what my guests will experience before the event. Today I spent time touring several restaurants on my list -- Shorebird, Maestro, and a few others. Every place so far has welcomed me warmly and walked me through how they can accommodate my guests for the date I had in mind. This location, however, was a different experience. I arrived on-site and asked to see if they had a room available to host a business event. Instead of showing me the space, the host simply handed me a card and told me to speak with their coordinator. That's an immediate red flag for me. If the site can't even accommodate a simple viewing, that already tells me everything I need to know about their service. Eliminated from the list.

I have been to Brigantine at Portside Pier a couple of times and always enjoy dining in with family and friends. We celebrated our wedding anniversary here in January this year and a birthday for someone special last October. I am glad to finally have the chance to write a review. There is parking that stretches around a quarter of a mile along the pier and it can get really busy as people not only dine but also enjoy walking along the area to appreciate the scenery of the ocean. There is also a paid self-parking with plenty of spaces, located about a seven-minute walk from Brigantine. This venue is located along Harbor Drive and offers a breathtaking view of the ocean, with sailboats passing by right outside the windows. The staff were very nice and had a great sense of humor. They made sure we felt comfortable and well accommodated. While the view is one of the highlights of this place, the food is just as delicious. I had the shrimp casserole with yellow rice and spices. The shrimp was tender and flavorful, matched with the warm, soft and seasoned rice. The pork sirloin and selected steaks were also tender and juicy. Overall, it was a great experience. The view and amazing customer service, topped with the delicious food, made the visit exceptional.

Made a reservation on Open Table to bring our family members visiting from Detroit to dinner on Friday night. The place was pretty well packed with cruise ship passengers. We were still able to get a nice table on the patio next to the water. Yay! Our server was Lindsay and she had great energy. As a table of 5 we ordered: Caesar Salad, Wedge Salad, Clam Chowder, 2 Crab Stuffed Shrimp Entrees, 1 Shrimp and Grits Entree, 1 Chicken Cordon Bleu Entrees. For dessert: 3 Brownie A La Modes and 2 Apple Crisps. Everything was delicious and served perfectly. Lindsay was great as our server. We enjoyed the scenery and we loved experiencing dusk and then night time dining as the sun went down. Great location. Overall excellent exp

Had dinner with a group of friends and enjoyed the beautiful evening view of the water. Our waitress was very friendly and efficient, and food was great! I ordered a cup of clam chowder and it was really good! It had the perfect amount of ingredients and was not too watery or creamy. Crab stuffed shrimp wrapped in bacon with mashed potatoes and veggies (green beans and baby carrots)- Loved the flavors, textures, and presentation. Would love to come back and try other things.

Date night for the wife and I. We've been to this spot many times. Always a good time and experience. The ocean views are always beautiful. The food and service is always great. The ambiance follows suit.

I arrived early on a Monday and it was plenty of seating both inside and out. It was a holiday weekend. There's parking along the water that's around 7 bucks for 3 hours I think and they have valet as well I believe it was 20 bucks. Ordered the oysters but were too big and chunky for my liking. The fondue was good but needs some hot sauce. The coconut shrimp were huge and filling. It's alittle on the pricier side. The view is beautiful especially at sunset. As I left around 1ish it was full of ppl both inside and out.

We went here on invitation of a hotel deal of free appetizer (Brussels sprouts or calamari strips) on purchase of entree. This place is on my list so perfect. We went on a Saturday lunch around 12pm without any reservations and we were able to be seated at the outside tables (patio) with water views directly. We tried the Brussels sprouts and lobster tempura tacos. I also got a 6oz glass of Brigantine white wine for $11 which was solid value. The Brussels sprouts were really good - sweet and savory, with chorizo and pork belly so it is quite a hearty dish. The lobster tempura tacos were excellent too - $29 for 2 sounds steep but the lobster is a whole lobster tail battered and it is very fresh. The sides of fries and vegetables were okay but make up a complete meal. Service is decent and the overall experience for the views is excellent.

秋天， 總帶著一絲孤寂，凋零的樹葉， 像極了些遠離了我們的人和事，總有一些風景，只能一個人欣賞，總有一些路，注定要一個人走完，風中飄過的每一片落葉，似乎都在跟你訴說著過往的故事，那些曾經的日子～ 今天吃飯的領域算是小小開疆闢土的跑到San Diego 來了，朋友說幾年前跟他女兒來過這風景非常美麗的餐廳， 要我一早9點就要到他家跟他集合， 為了吃頓飯， 也跑太遠了點吧‍‍，11 點餐廳還沒開門，就很多人在前面等了， 坐在戶外， 美麗的海景加上旁邊的帆船真的是無敵的location, 但食物方面就很兩極，所有的前菜都不怎麼樣， 牡蠣，朋友點一打， 只吃了三，四個就不吃了，他說太難吃 ‍‍，我喜歡的蟹餅也完全不行， 蒸蛤蜊不好吃，只有clam chowder 有85 分，但主菜的部分卻超級好吃，我們的龍蝦尾100 分， 新鮮，跟前菜好像不同餐廳做出來的， 我的菲力火候拿捏的也很好， 主菜倒是令人喜出望外， 生意那是強強滾， 整個外面的位置都坐滿了， 也許他們的沙拉，三明治漢堡之類的做的好吃，看起來好像都是當地的上班族來吃午餐的感覺， 應該很受當地人歡迎

Currently enjoying both $7 HH and Taco Tuesdays at Brigantine -Portside Pier in San Diego. It is another beautiful day in Southern California, partly cloudy with sun breaks. We were seated right away in the bar area. Though this spot sita right on the pier it was a brisk afternoon and my wife indicated she would prefer to be indoors. Brigantine is located in a touristcentric area of the waterfront. Our server, Kate, was on point though, welcoming and engaging. I would come back to this spot just because of her! Great job! The ambiance was great with a lively vibe and great view of the bay. We went for several Oyster Shooters, a couple Swordfish Tacos, a couple Mahi Mahi Tacos, and a couple Ahi Tuna Sliders. It's Happy Hour folks, but the food was grea and hit the spot! The Mahi Mahi Tacos included Mexican slaw & line cilantro aioli on a flower tortilla. The Grilled Swordfish taco included Sonoran-spiced Swordfish cheddar cheese, cabbage, salsa fresca, with ranch dressing. The Oyster shooters were heavenly including the cocktail sauce and hot sauce. The S'mores fudge brownie dessert top it off ! This is a place the wife agreed would be a spot we'd return.

Our server George was the absolute best. It's rare to get a server that gives you just the right amount of attention, is genuine and down to earth. He made our visit to Brigantine so awesome and helped erase a stressful bad work day/week. The brussel sprouts were the star of the show and I still day dream about these! The salmon was a lovely dish that I enjoyed more with some lemon drizzled on top. My husband enjoyed the wasabi ahi tuna dish. Drinks were superb and the view, was a cherry on top.

The food and service were GREAT! We ordered the calamari strips (best calamari we've had). We also ordered the fish and chips and the swordfish and they were also incredible dishes!! I grew up in England and these are some of the best fish and chips I've had. Our server Omar F. was wonderful, he was very attentive to my allergies and he was super friendly.

We came for brunch since we weren't able to make it there for dinner the previous night. There was no wait so we were seated right away. Since it's on the waterfront, the view is so beautiful! Not only can you see the ships and submarine parked next to it, there are people in boats and jet skis passing by and waving throughout the meal. There is actually a pretty strong breeze so it can get a little chilly even around noon.

There are several Brig's around SD. The location of this one is superb. It's right on the water in Portside Pier. Parking can be a bit tough. You'll want to make reservations as they get very busy. It's a nice brunch or lunch spot. People like to go there for dinner too but I think it's a better lunch spot. It's a pretty place and they have both indoor and outdoor seating. *Insider Tip: try to get one of the tables outside in the back overlooking the water. Feels like you're on a boat! It's such a beautiful view. The food is good but not amazing. I have liked the food better at this location than some of their other locations. I had the seafood Cobb salad last time I had lunch there. It was good, fresh, and a big size. *Note: if you get there later between lunch and dinner, they have a limited menu and you can't order off the regular menu until a certain time.

This is my second time dining here. I always sit at the bar and I've had the same person assist me both times. I always have to lead him to give me my check or take my order or take my plates away. He never takes initiative. The food is always good here. The first time I had the crab cake and it was delicious. The second time was happy hour and I had oysters and 2 beef sliders. I could have done without the sliders but the oysters were delicious. I'll probably try something else on this strip of restaurants the next time I'm in the area.

Several people recommended this spot at a work conference (for the fish tacos which are only on the lunch menu). Came for dinner and can best summarize the meal as unremarkable and lackluster. The strawberry lemonade was not strong in strawberry OR lemon flavor - I suspect it was mostly soda water. Would not order again. The crab and shrimp fondue appetizer was not melty (like normal fondue) but rather a thick texture that was rich but had minimal shrimp or crab flavor nor were there visible pieces of either. I'd skip this. The bacon-wrapped crab stuffed shrimp sounded amazing and was yummy. It was flavorful and creamy. However, it was served with completely plain, unappetizing green beans and carrots. I asked for salt and pepper, but that did not save it not to mention they would have benefitted from being cooked longer as the carrots were too firm. The side of mashed potatoes was also very bland and the jalapeno white cream sauce didn't help. I feel the reviews may be overhyped as I would not recommend or return to this restaurant. The service was perfectly fine and the outdoor views were outstanding. So, maybe visit for scenic drinks, not food.

In short: Fresh seafood, great views, and a solid spot to soak up San Diego. Long version: We'd just landed in California and, while wandering around to get a taste of San Diego, my friend and I stumbled upon Brigantine. He's obsessed with oysters, and their sign promised plenty. We grabbed a table outside, right on the water -- perfect for watching jet skis zip by and boats sail along. For an Ohio girl like me, it was such a treat! Not being big on seafood myself, I ordered a Caesar salad -- and it was one of the few places that actually puts enough dressing on it. Honestly, one of the better salads I've had in a while. My friend got half a dozen oysters and the calamari. He said both were delicious, and the oysters tasted super fresh. The service was great, and even though we were the youngest people there at the time, we felt totally comfortable. If you're into seafood, give Brigantine a try -- every dish that came out of the kitchen looked amazing!

Very nice ambiance and service. We ordered the fresh oysters, grilled swordfish, and panko crusted Mahi. The oysters were so good and fresh, the swordfish tasted flavorful but the mahi wasn't as good. I'd still would come back someday for drinks, appetizers, or small plates. I would like to commend our server as she was very attentive and often checked on us.

This Brigantine location is different than all the others, even our server mentioned this. Our server was amazing. He was attentive, but not intrusive. He knew the menu very well and in general was a delightful person. The ambience was nice with a beautiful view of San Diego Bay,. The food was prepared well, and we even loved their oyster selection. Beyond that the menu selection seemed somewhat limited and certainly not as broad as other Brigantine locations. The menu itself is the reason I didn't give this great restaurant five stars. Go enjoy. It is spring tea location, I hear the taco Tuesdays are a great deal and the ambience in the bar looked amazing.

Beautiful view, popular tourist spot, and pretty good food! We had Brigantine to try to get the sunset during dinner and were successful. It's a hot spot to go, every table is full and there is some wait for drinks and food, but it's worth it. The food is good, there's several GF options, and it's all quite shareable. We did wait a while for drinks, particularly as the night went on, but our server and the management we saw were definitely trying their best. We all liked our main courses, but the sides were fairly bland. Brussels sprouts weren't what other reviews said they'd be, but the crab dip was definitely worth it. I'd go again for the view! And the swordfish!

Great seafood and service. Best place for a lovely view while you enjoy great food. My margarita was just ok tasting but everything else we had was good. Our server jack was extremely attentive, best I've ever encountered. The crab cakes were really good and my s redfish was great as well. It's a great spot for good views especially when the night falls

My Mom and I went out to lunch and we wanted a place with a spectacular view. I knew Brigantine was the perfect place for that. We split the Crab and Shrimp Louie salad and a bowl of their Clam Chowder. The fish in the salad was very fresh and the Chowder was creamy and full of flavor. Brigantine may be one of the best restaurants in San Diego but this location definitely has the. best view!

Came here with my cousin while in the area for Comic-Con: The place is right on the water and has a great view. The inside is open but a little cold for my taste. They have an upstairs and outside seating. Our waiter was great with suggestions. He was attentive and funny. My daughter got the Cesar salad with crab meat. She said it was delicious. I got the Salmon special. My food was tasty and I would go back. They ordered dessert for the table which was Crème Brûlée and Apple Crisp. They said the Crème Brûlée was amazing but the apple crisp had a weird taste.

This place is amazing! I stopped in here for some lunch with friends and we got seated right along the water. The view was absolutely beautiful. We got started with some oysters (not pictured) and some fried calamari. This was the best calamari I've ever had, it was so light, crispy and buttery. Since it was my birthday they brought me a completely crème brûlée which was extremely kind of them! It was my first time trying and it was delicious. This place is perfect for a lunch date. Amazing atmosphere and food. I will definitely be returning next time I'm in the area.

This restaurant serves solid seafood. I had the fresh oysters and baked oysters, lobster tempura tacos, mud pie and a passion fruit margarita. Overall, I was very satisfied with my meal. The fresh oysters were plumb and creamy. The lobster tacos were meaty with a nice crunchy coating. The mud pie was huge, sweet and delicious. I did not enjoy the baked oysters. They were small and could have been more flavorful. The margarita was not balanced and was a bit on the tart side. Service was excellent. We had reservations on an early Saturday evening on the patio next to the water. It was very busy, but our waitress was sweet and friendly and food arrived on time. The ocean view was beautiful.

We have been visiting the Brigantine for years and always enjoy it. Last year or so has really seen a step up in the service and quality of the food. Once again it's always been an enjoyable meal. It's just taken on a different level and we love it. Yesterday we took the boat docked up and sat at the bar for the happy hour. Steven from Ireland was amazing. We had lots of oysters, shrimp cocktail, salad, and crunchy calamari. Everything came out in perfect timing, drinks were amazing from Stephen. We got a nice visit from lauren, the manager. She is absolutely lovely and doing amazing job with her staff!! I'm sure every server there is amazing, however, we always love sitting with Jessica Levenson in the main room and Hanna around the bar.

Every time I return back its a great experience. The food is always a hit here. Great customer service and experience with views all around! You could do reservations or walk-in. I usually stick to walk ins. Parking can be a little tough if its during peak hours.

Super cute, bustling restaurant right on the water. Ona hot day we opted for indoor seating. Overall the service and food was great. The one kinda weird and not very hospitable thing: when the host walked us to our table he looked surprised and like he wasn't sure what to do. Turns out 2 employees were having a meeting at the table we were assigned to. I pointed to another table and said we would be happy to take that one instead. The guys were attempting to be nice and got up right away, but the table was not only NOT set, IT WASN'T SANITIZED or at least wiped clean. Instead, when one of the men returned to bring more cutlery, he WIPED THE water rings (from his water) on TABLE WITH HIS HAND!!! The food: Oysters were just as they should be, FRESH! The calamari was in strips, meaty and good seasoning on the batter. Lobster tacos -5/5, super tasty, came with green beans which was a nice veggie option. Cobb salad -4/5 super fresh, but nothing special Fish and chips - 5/5 perfect batter ratio, fries were fresh Ahi tuna special - 5/5, tasty, fresh and good portion Our server was nice and attentive.

I had really high expectations of this place... if you want great food dont come here. food is lacking in any taste/palette. weird combinations like mango ceviche on top of a crab cake with sweet and sour sauce???presentation is terrible (look at the photos). I would think this restaurant had standards due to the high pricing, view, decor, and positive reviews. Service was decent, checked on us twice, however didn't refill waters until we asked. View is amazing tho! I feel like most customers come for that. Definitely will not recommend or come back.

Really nice experience at the Brigantine , we were in town visiting friends and we had a nice group for dinner. Even with a party of about 15 there was no problem getting accommodations. The seating was spacious and comfortable. The service was very good , our server was attentive and on point. Once we ordered our food came out fast, I'm not sure how but everything was quick and cooked to order perfectly. We all had various drinks, and dessert at the end and really not one complaint. If you're in town and looking for a nice waterside dinning experience out the Brigantine on your list.

3 restaurants in one all with views of mission bay... Each space has their own ambiance and great for any size party. Cocktails were scrumptious and the menu had something for everyone. Good service. Parking is a bit of a bear ( we ubered)) and was glad we did.

I really enjoyed this place! Jessica was awesome, very friendly and helpful! We got in and sat at a community table outside. It's got a fire element in the middle of the table, so was great late at night to watch the sunset. It kept us warm and kept our dishes warm. It allowed for a casual conversation without having to rush to eat while the food was hot. The Brussels sprouts were the highlight of the meal. Easily the best Brussels we've ever had!!! We removed the pork as we have a sensitivity to pork. The sauce on them was awesome! Also had an old fashioned, no the specialty cocktail but a rye old fashioned with a different bourbon. Excellently done! Very well balanced. I had the mahi and it was a very tasty dish. Good portion and the risotto was excellent! Would recommend anyone stop in, I'd come back, and would recommend visiting at sunset!

Brigantine at the Pier was wonderful! Beautiful large space with amazing views. Plenty of inside space and tons of outside tables with heaters if it's chilly or late. They have plenty of food options that can appeal to anyone. The service was spectacular and took great care of us. I would definitely recommend stopping by.

This review is strictly for a private book event for my bestie graduation dinner, so the menu we head was prefixed since this was a private. Located on the San Diego Pier, this was my first time experiencing this restaurant and my goodness, parking here on the weekend was stressful. I had to parked at the other side called Block 4 parking, keep in mind there was also a festival going on so street parking was blocked off. I didn't know they offered valet parking until after the party event was over, but hey, after all the food, I was glad to walk back to my car because I was stuffed. Services and food. Now since this was a private event, there was a prefixed menu on which I had what I wanted since invitation was sent out, I always study the menu before I head to any restaurant so I got the Brig Chowder for starter and for the main course I had the Sterling New York Steak (Done medium rare) and ohhhh mmmyyyy lorrrddd, loved that crusted layer on that steak and the mashed potatoes was great, now the green beans was a bit too hard, like it needed to be boiled just a tad bit more and then blanched; overall it was good, big portions and filling. Went the desserts came, I was really stuffed from the lunch and can't passed up the dessert, it was good, wasn't too sweet and if I wasn't driving, an espresso martini would paired great with the s'mores brownie in my opinion. The waiters that assists during this evening were wonderful and attentive, filling waters and making sure each guests got their cocktails, I didn't ordered any cocktails since I was driving from a far, so I got pepsi and they refilled everytime it was low. They also served bread but I didn't want to get fill on that, the party did however, order appetizers from their other menu that wasn't listed in the prefixed, I got a tasted of their grilled octopus and that was really good, don't know the name of it on their menu but most likely to come back and try out. Since this was a private event the ambiance was intimate and shut away from the main dining, honestly I felt like this was Keeping up with the Kardashians kind of vibe because of how private it was.

Best seafood and view right on the harbor of SD bay. Staff was wonderful, food is delicious, views are 5 star. The have a heated patio and valet and paid parking up front. A gem to local and tourists to eat at! Worth every taste and penny.

Had dinner at Brigantine on the Port and overall it was a really nice experience. We didn't sit right by the water, but we still had a good view of the marina and the boats, which added to the relaxed coastal vibe of the place. We started with the clam chowder, which was creamy and well-seasoned. It had a good amount of clams and wasn't overly thick, which I liked. Definitely a comforting way to start the meal. For mains, I had the fish tacos and they were really solid. The fish was crispy and fresh, and the toppings gave it a good balance of crunch and flavor. The portion was generous too. We also ordered the scallops, which were cooked nicely and had a good sear. They were tender and paired well with the sides, though I wouldn't say they were anything out of this world. Service was friendly and the pace of the meal felt unhurried. It was busy but not chaotic, and the staff seemed on top of things. The food didn't completely blow me away, but it was fresh, satisfying, and enjoyable. What really stood out was the setting and overall atmosphere. I'd definitely come back, especially for a chill dinner with friends or a casual date night by the marina.

My wife ordered the shrimp and crab Louie salad! Also a cup of Clam Chowder! I ordered the grilled octopus to start! Then the sandabs for dinner! Our server was nice and friendly! Real hungry

6ct. Oyster for 20$-5/5 Fish tacos-5/5 Overall very good and fast service! This place is very casual but is a little more expensive, due to the location. The only note I would give is that they don't have actual saltine for the oysters.

So I had other plans for dinner, but they were derailed. I decided on this spot because it was on the water and I was confident it would have an impressive menu. We were seated pretty quickly, but moved as the draft from the patio door was a bit much. My stepmom grabbed a cup of tea and I was kinda impressed with the whole set up that gets delivered with it. For appetizers we started with the calamari strips and I had the grilled oysters. The oysters were a bit bland and I kinda expected more. The calamari was an atypical cut, but I made for a more unique culinary experience. For mains my sister got the lobster tacos that were a bit interesting with the purple tortilla. My dad has the salad, and my stepmom has the burger which she said was a bit dry. I had the mani and it was flavorful and the risotto was okay. I might have preferred mash potatoes. The veggies were crisp and it was pretty good. Nice spot, very impressive bar. Check it out if you are in the area.

Had a business meeting here and decided to try the swordfish. Fish was ok. Friends had the lobster tacos that didn't look too appetizing. Unfortunately, the food isn't always as impressing as the view. Nonetheless, the view is always superb. Great atmosphere and quick service. I must say there was a horrible stench outside of the restaurant that didn't seem to go away. Not sure if that's coming from the water or or the sewer system but it was horrible

My son and I popped in after touring the maritime ships. He demanded ice cream as a treat for doing the exact thing he asked to do today. (Toddler parents will understand) So we stopped next door to grab some ice cream and a glass of wine. At the front, the hostess and Asian manager with the beard suggested if we wanted ice cream to go next door. Maybe they were confused people wanted to sit down at a restaurant and order more than one item? Diana, our waitress, was very kind and accommodating. The people at the front were not accommodating at all and left a poor impression of an empty restaurant on the 4th of July. I've said it before about places open on the 4th- get your A string in to serve people like Diana, not the D string, like the manager and unfriendly hostess.

Happy hour until 5pm AND taco Tuesday all day?! Best of both worlds! Fish tacos were amazing! Don't forget about dessert!

My party and I attended the International Boat Festival by the harbor and made a reservation at this restaurant for 5 PM. We arrived early to see if they could accommodate us, and they were very accommodating, seating us by the water after I requested one of the few open seats available in that area. Fortunately, it wasn't too crowded when we arrived, but it quickly became bustling with tourists. The food was delightful! I ordered the fondue, while my party ordered both raw and baked oysters. The raw oysters were particularly tasty, fresh, and in season! The fondue was delicious, and I also ordered an ahi dish that had a nice kick, showcasing an Asian fusion flair. Overall, we had a wonderful time at this fine restaurant, making it a fantastic outing for foodies.

Kudos on a great happy hour! I wandered in after a few hours at the maritime museum and just wanted some oysters and while, while looking out over the ships and sea. The house wine and oysters were exactly what I was looking for, plus a tuna slider . Everyone was super friendly. I was only sad that happy hour seating is limited to the bar area so I couldn't cozy up right next to the window on the water as I had hoped. I get it though. Great spot on the water!

Service was really great but the food was alright. Parking: there is a parking lot near the restaurant and street parking but you do have to pay and there is valet also. Didn't have reservations and went during the start of dinner time but was able to get a table right away near the window. Our server Kate was amazing, she was very attentive from the start what we like to drink, to when we're ready to order and to getting the check. Out of all the items we ordered, I liked the baked oysters(its only 3)and there was too much crispy wontons for just only 3 oysters.

Lovely dinner with amazing service. The views here are stunning! Blackened Salmon - the salmon had charred exterior and was super tender! This entree was a generous portion of salmon & veggies. The creamy sauce with charred kale was the perfect addition. This entree had a lot of onions (which I enjoyed) but as an fyi to those who do not For dessert we had the mud pie and it was more like a huge slice of coffee ice cream cake. DELICIOUS Our server Mariah was kind, attentive, & helped the bday girl feel special on her day

Hanging out at a cool restaurant with a cocktail in hand, watching boats & stand up paddle boarders float by is my idea of a calm & relaxing day. I had such a day at Brigantine and although the skies were overcast, it didn't change the fact that I was enjoying the moment anyway. #ilovecoldweather THE FOOD. - Fresh Steamed Clams | I strangely loved the lemon grass which seemed to cut through the red curry-coconut broth; adding zesty and herbal notes for a harmonious blend of flavors. The clams, swimming in this beautiful broth, were tender and briny in taste. Highly recommend if you're in the search for something off the beaten path. - Brig Chowder | You know it's a good bowl of chowder when you don't have to search for the clams. However, I found a piece of plastic packaging in mine and chewed on it for a bit before realizing it wasn't clam. The waitress promptly replaced my dish and comped it from our bill. - Golden Ale-Battered Cod Fish & Chips | Cod is king (mildly fishy & delicately flaky) and the batter was perfectly light & crispy. It comes with garlic parmesan fries, housemade tartar & cocktail sauce. Absolutely try this dish out! - Macadamia Crusted Mahi | Mild, flaky Mahi fish combined with the nutty taste of macadamia nuts. A lemon beurre blanc (white butter sauce) is poured on top for added richness. It also comes with a side of creamy parmesan risotto & vegetables. Another dish I highly recommend trying. THE DRUNK DRINKS. - Second Chance Beer Co. (Mulligan Amber Ale) | Malty caramel sweetness. - Passionfruit Margarita | Tequila with passion fruit purée, lime juice, and tajin rim. The flavor profile is a vibrant mix of sweet, tangy, and slightly tart. THE PARKING. There's a parking lot in front of the restaurant, but it quickly fills up. If that happens, you can do valet or park further down the street and walk over. THE RESERVATION. Yeah, make reservations online, this place can get busy. THE RETURN? I'd come back. The vibe is great and so is the food.

As a Food Blogger I can't speak highly enough about not only my experience but the food was so good. I will make the two hour drive just to eat here.

Walking in already feels like you're in a fancy restaurant. The servers are nice & ready to get you seated. The drinks were great & didn't take long for them to come out. The swordfish was absolutely the best seafood I've ever had, was also my first time, so I recommend if you ever visit. The veggies & the risotto paired extremely well with the swordfish & I wish I had more. The dessert was probably the best I've ever had as well & I almost never get dessert at any restaurant. The view was immaculate & the walk along the port was beautiful. 10/10, thank you
