    Most amazing birthday meal tonight. The server was so attentive and made sure we all knew how the menu worked and how to have the best experience. The broccoli was the number 1 at our table followed by the chicken dish and the market fish. The s’mores dessert was so fun and delicious as well! Everything 10/10, worth the wait for a reservation.

    the food was delicious and we all had a great time, we were a little disappointed when we first walked in because the hostess wasn’t there and we stood at the front for about 5 minutes before anyone spoke to us. the servers and other staff were looking over but no one came to help us. after that, the service was great and we had a lovely time! the food was awesome and we’d love to come back and give it another shot!

    Our Christmas dinner at Brickmans Restaurant & Bar was truly delightful! The location itself is charming, but the festive Christmas decorations elevated the ambiance, creating a warm and inviting holiday atmosphere. We opted for the pre-fix dinner, and it was absolutely worth every penny. The meal was not only delicious but also perfectly portioned and shareable, making it ideal for a family gathering. Dining at 5 PM allowed us to enjoy a relaxed and unhurried experience, soaking in the festive vibes. The restaurant is incredibly family-friendly, making it a perfect spot to gather with both friends and loved ones during the holidays. The excellent customer service was the cherry on top—attentive, warm, and professional throughout our meal. Overall, Brickmans Restaurant & Bar provided us with a memorable Christmas dining experience, and we can’t recommend it enough for anyone looking to celebrate in a cozy and welcoming setting.

    King's is part of our Christmas tradition, and last night's feast was the best meal we've ever had there! A big thanks to our server Colette for making our special night even more special! She was so attentive, and we didn't feel rushed, even though it got busy. Her recommendations were spot on, and our dinner was delicious! It was the first time my husband tried key lime pie, he hasn't stopped talking about it since. It was DIVINE! We'll definitely be back!
