Located in a historic auction house on India St we did a full comprehensive restoration of the building, with three open-air culinary hubs featuring an expansive raw bar, chefs table, and bakery. We tried to be mindful of the past while looking towards the future. Groups of 6 or more will be charged an automatic 20% gratuity.

The Brigantine is more than just home to some of San Diego’s finest seafood. It’s a place where locals and visitors alike come to share a lively atmosphere and authentic sense of community. The Morton family opened the first Brigantine on Shelter Island in 1969, with a vision that embraced the beach town lifestyle, a dedication to flavorful food, and a passion for friendly service. Today, we’re known far and wide for our San Diego-style surf and turf. From our award-winning fish tacos and freshly shucked oysters, to classic filet mignon or our perpetually best-selling marinated grilled swordfish. Always prepared to exceed expectations, and served with a smile. You can stop in at any neighborhood Brigantine and get a taste of the local flavor, from regionally inspired specials, to custom cocktails and home town craft beers. At the Brigantine we make first timers feel like regulars, and consider regulars part of the family. So come by often, and share our taste for life.

    One of the best meals of my life, and worth every penny. Our server made some amazing suggestions, so definitely ask. The cabbage, for example, was one of the best dishes of the night and we almost skipped it.

    We had a great lunch date at Seneca. We started with the olives and caviar. After that we had a pizza and some linguine with clams. Everything was tasty and great. The service was excellent. The views from the rooftop are great. We highly recommend Seneca.

    Our niece was in town with her new husband and met us there for lunch. It was also her birthday. My husband and I have eaten at the Brigantine many times and thought this would be a great place for a birthday luncheon. Michael, our server, was very understanding that we didn't want very fast service as we had a lot of family news to catch up. As usual the dinks and food were great. I was particularly pleased with my Oysters Rockefeller. The portions for our meals were just right and we had a little room leftover to dig into my niece's birthday desert. All in all, a great experience, as usual.
