They are carefully practicing social distancing even though it is too cold for their lovely outdoor seating. The courtyard is a treat in the summer - shaded with a tinkling fountain. House wines are nice and very fairly priced. Everything from big burgers to local shrimp entrees. Really a great place to relax and enjoy your meal.“

“Great views of the harbor and tasty, flavorful food with excellent service. Stopped for lunch on a Friday and they were busy, but there were a few open seats. We got in our orders and the food came out quickly. I got the Bison Burger- one of the daily specials. It was very good, with seeded jalapeños on the side and a tasty bacon jam. The potato salad was a mustard-style and good. My wife got the soup of the day-White Bean Chili. It had a good, lasting kick, and was very good as well. We saw a number of people getting the Salmon Salad, a large mix of greens and veggies, with a huge piece of fish and a red velvet looking muffin. It apparently comes in full and half-size portions. Drink prices were reasonable and the food was on the higher side of average. Great overall, and recommended!“

“Definitely a coastal spot! Right on the water, we got to catch a beautiful sunset! It was something worth seeing.I started the order off with fried calamari. It wasn't the best, a good amount of them were empty. Idk if $16 is a good price tag for that dish. My main was the prime rib, at $4. It came with mashed potatoes and veggies(broccoli and carrots) sadly the veggies were cold. It didn't bother me too much. The mashed potatoes were spot on and the prime rib was great. Cooked to temp. The server was great, I think his name was Gabe. He had a big heart and seemed content with the 13 of us. And we split the check. Which I apologized to him many times about. Being in the industry I understand how that can be frustrating. But he was a champ.Overall I'd give Brett's a 7.5/10. Would go back. But wouldn't be my first choice.“
