    We go to Brigantine regularly and have never been disappointed. The service is fantastic and the food is delicious and reasonably priced compared to other high-end seafood restaurants.

    Ok not outstanding. Upsell to order more sides, drinks. I've had better fish & chips for less cost. It's the ambience you're paying more for. Open table menu preview not totally accurate. Views out windows of other retail.

    We went last night for a day after Valentine's romantic dinner. Made reservations, was greeted and sat immediately. No issues with the the ambience or staff in general. We sat in the back room with the fireplace. It was a little annoying people kept using the side door we were sat next to as it was a cold night and distruptive to our experience, but I guess nothing the restaurant could control. However, the food was another story. I ordered a dozen Chesapeake oysters. While their size was good, they were flavorless (@ $3.75 a piece), the cocktail sauce tasted like ketchup and the horseradish did not taste fresh as it was also flavorless. I get they can't control the oysters taste, but they absolutely can their cocktail and horseradish. I'm from the East Coast so I know seafood. These were a waste of $42. As an entree, I ordered the crab stuffed shrimp with mash potatoes and green beans. The presentation was good but the entire entree was cold! My husband's entree (tacos) was warm so I didn't say anything. My husband didn't care for his meal in general, said it was bland. I also had ordered a pre dinner vodka tonic with a twist. Their version of a twist is to throw a lime into the drink which is wrong and just lazy. I bartendered for many years and this always bugs me when bartenders don't know how to make a simple drink especially at pricier places. A twist means you remove the lime flesh, rub the inside of the rind on the glass rim, twist it and put it in the drink. They need to train their bar better. Needless to say, we will not be going back.

    This location was remodeled recently. Prices are very high on the specials. I ordered my steak medium and it came rare. Not good. We also shared a $12 salad. They were very small! Unfortunately our waitress was not very attentive. I'll probably wait to go back for a while now...
