This is my favorite restaurant. I’ve been going here for decades. Most of us have waited all year for our reservations. All I ask is DO NOT rush us through our meal. When I tell you that I would like to finish my martini before we order, I am not joking. And having to tell you multiple times to just let us enjoy our drinks is super frustrating. Also, don’t be rude. This will affect your tip. Just leave us alone and we will let YOU know when we are ready. Literally, just back off.

Was excited to be at Brix on a Monday nite before wife left town in the am. Hostess, manager, & bartender (our eventual server,) were all welcoming, professional & enthusiastic about our visit. We chose to cork a bottle at the bar and share dishes there. The MNF game was on tv, and that was kind of cool. Started with the Caviar/Dungeness deviled eggs (five stars,) followed by the tempura green beans, (another five.). Couldn’t leave w/o trying the Friend chicken though. Perfectly seasoned and rivaling Ad Hoc on the dish itself adding mashed potato & green beans (this time steamed or roasted.) 10/10
