Great evening with friends made even better by the service provided by Kay. She was delightful. She didn’t rush us and enabled us to catch up with our friends. She lit up the table every time she came by. The food was awesome and Kay’s service is why, The Brigantine, is our “go to” casual dining restaurant in San Diego. Thanks for a great night and special thanks, to Kay, for the attentive service!

We FINALLY made it down from Carlsbad and took advantage of the “Proper Roast Dinner with Richard Blais.” Our first time here was well worth it! The restaurant is GORGEOUS! The staff, engaging and very attentive. We thoroughly enjoyed the scrumptious prime rib dinner with wonderful sides. Everything was meticulously prepared and delicious! King Richard visited our table a few times which made our experience extra special. The sticky toffee and date cake with salted caramel ice cream is a MUST!!! Sooooo good! We will be back to try the famous ale battered cod and chips and the prime rib dip sando…
