BRINE, known for fresh oysters, crudo, and prime cut chops, is Caswell Restaurant Group’s second foray into the eclectic and innately New England dining scene of Newburyport, MA.

The main attractions at BRINE are backed up by soups, salads, Po-Boys, and “off the page” daily specials to provide plenty of variety.This neighborhood hangout welcomes all and leaves pretension at the door. The low-key design and elevated standards of service allow the food to speak for itself, and Manager Gissele Tache and her staff are always on hand to recommend an adventurous catch, a fine bottle of wine, or a sweet after-dinner treat.

All of the entries was some of the finest I've ever had. Sea scallops were excellent, hamburger looked beautiful. Eight ounce filet mignon was excellent the appetizes: spare ribs, and buffalo mozzarella w prosciutto were also superb. Spaghetti bolognese was devoured. My halibut with lobster ravioli was very very good. There was actually a decent amount of lobster in the ravioli. Overall excellent and great service. 1 beer and soft drinks. All $304 w$60 tip came out to $60 each. Great food decent value. Can't go wrong. at Tuscan Grill

I brought my parents there and we had a seat overlooking the ocean which was so nice. It is such a cool place to go and the bar looks like a lot of fun as well. Have to try that next time! Food and service were very good. An added bonus - the show we were seeing was at Blue Ocean Music Hall which is in same building.
