So this is a cool spot! It's actually outside in campus martius, And if it's a nice day this is a really great place to be. You're right in the center of downtown on Woodward. It's a good walk from everything, well a lot of things. Baba bar, food, there's a restaurant about 20 yards away, it's a one-stop shop if you are walking around downtown. I thought that the service was pretty good, we spoke to the waitresses in Great length and had a good conversation, they made time to come and talk to us. I can appreciate that!If I was coming downtown and walking around for the night, I might would in and have a drink again!

I am very disappointed in this restaurant and its service. The food was flavorless and cold. Our waitress Jenna B over charged me for a drink I didn't even get and then added herself an extra tip on my bill. I checked my bank statement and she left herself a 16.92 dollar tip and didn't think I would check my stuff. You didn't even deserve that 16 dollars because you were never at our table. Other table waiters was checking on us more then she was. 1/10 would not recommend just horrible. Don't trust these waiters with your card. If you go here pay cash so they don't scam you.

Imagine an outside bar atmosphere where you literally feel like you’re on a beach! So glad we stopped here on our date day downtown. It was a dream to be able to stick my toes in the sand while sipping a delicious cocktail… while in the D!! They also have a small light bites menu, which includes apps, salads, and sandwiches. Our server sat and chatted with us and was helpful with recommendations, and we greatly enjoyed our drinks! Such a relaxing, laid-back environment with fun seating and awesome music!Happy hour is M-F 3-6p and BrisaBar closes for the season on September 15th. I will definitely be watching for their reopening for the Summer ‘24 season!

I can’t believe how bad the service was here today. The bartender serving us was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever encountered at any establishment. She was on her phone, eating her own meal, and vaping, the entire time we were there. Completely ignoring me and my wife. Beach bar was empty at midday, we were her only responsibility and she dropped the ball. SO. BAD.Food and atmosphere was good but she ruined the whole meal. Once the food came, she gave us no napkins, no offering of any condiments, she dropped the plate and disappeared. Never came back to ask for a refill on our drinks. We then had to hunt her down, and interrupt her meal, to get our bill. And she was so rude about it.Will never return.Management needs to address this with the staff.

Filthy chairs/tables and “bathroom”. Ordered the chips and salsa, wasn’t made for more than one person and put into to go containers. Wait staff needs to be corrected on their clothing, way too small and dirty. The margarita bucket on the menu is a flavored, frozen sugar mess, no margarita at all! Definitely will not be going

I love going to the beach in the middle of downtown! I appreciate that this is annual summer thing now in Campus Martius. A great chance to put my feet in the sand. This is a great Happy Hour destination. This beach bar has fun seating, cool vibes, and great music. Excellent service from Brandon. The drinks are tasty and the truffle fries are delicious!

Great vibes, awesome service, and tasty snacks! This is a pop up spot in Campus Martius that offers lots of outdoor seating (tables and bar top) and music! It was a bit on the pricier side but overall was a fun place to try. We got the wings and fries, and a drink off the cocktail menu. The drink was tasty but again a bit on the pricey side for what it was. I really enjoyed the small plates we got though!

I just wanted to give you guys some feedback. This is a great location. Great vibes but I would only recommend to Go there just to sit. We gave this place a 2nd chance. The 2nd time was worse
I’m a regular here and I absolutely love the vibes!! Food and drinks are always great but the best part is the General Manager Stephanie. She is always so professional and accommodating! I always see her running around helping her WHOLE staff! She definitely deserves a raise.

This is my absolute favorite place to be in the summer time. I love going to see my favorite bartenders Ashley and Marcus! They always have my drink ready before I even sit down, the Downtown Lemonade! The manager Stephanie always makes us feel so welcomed. I recommend getting the Tacos. They’re delicious.

Took my family to Brisa bar a few days ago to try it out for the first time and we absolutely loved it! The atmosphere was great, the food came out in a timely manner even though they were busy, and our waitress was amazing. She made sure that we were taken care of and kept our drinks full throughout our lunch. If you are looking for a cute place to take your family for brunch or lunch, I would highly recommend.
