Everything that entered my mouth was mesmerizing. I am still thinking about the bursts of favors in each morsel. I had the snapper. My dinner date texted me a day later about the delicious pasta dish had. Wanting more. I will definitely miss this place as brennee's pass. I ww were able to havw one last meal. Thank you to the staff and chef.

Very good food and excellent service! Have enjoyed coming over the years and look forward to checking out the new concept that's replacing it!

I went to Brenner Pass tonight because I just found out they’re closing at the end of August and I’d never been. I’m so glad I made it in before they close.
When I walked in, I was greeted right away and mentioned I was celebrating a new job. After I was seated, they surprised me with a complimentary glass of champagne; a thoughtful and memorable touch!
Starter: I ordered the Grilled Focaccia (basil pistachio pistou, whipped ricotta) to start, and it was absolutely wonderful: flavorful and the perfect serving size, not too much or too little.
Main: For my entrée, I had the Berkshire Pork Loin (creamy piperade, cherry tomatoes, potatoes, crispy shallots, basil). The pork was cooked perfectly and the flavors were excellent. My one quibble is that the dish felt incomplete, like it needed a starch to make it a full meal. I know many fine dining spots now do family-style sides ordered separately, but Brenner Pass didn’t even offer that option. Something like mashed potatoes, pilaf, or even mac and cheese would have rounded it out beautifully.
Dessert & Tea: To finish, I ordered a pot of Earl Grey tea and the Espresso Budino (white chocolate, crumiri cookie). The budino was outstanding: smooth, rich, and the perfect size. I did have to ask for milk and sugar for my tea, which was odd since they brought a spoon but nothing to stir. 🤣
Service & Extras: Service was excellent overall: friendly, attentive, and thoughtful. I also noticed they have a mocktail on the menu, but it’s priced the same as cocktails with alcohol. Personally, I don’t think mocktails should ever cost as much as their alcoholic counterparts. If they’re the same price, I’ll just stick with water. I know Brenner Pass is closing soon, but since Brittanny Anderson also owns Metzger, Pink Room, and Black Lodge—and is opening Bar Buoy—I hope that’s something they reconsider across their restaurants.
Overall, a lovely night and a memorable send-off to Brenner Pass.

The food and overall experience was excellent. Sad they are closing soon, but we're glad to have gotten in before then!

We had oysters, charcuterie board and mortadella pasta. All were great and would order again. The cocktail Essay was fabulous.

The setting is nice, the advice was good, the noise level was off the charts high, and the food was basically inedible. Steak was a poor cut that had been tenderized to death and tasted like it had been soaking in Italian dressing for a lifetime. Tagliatelle was flavorless and served in an unappetizing lump. Fondue was ok, drinks were interesting. Overall a waste of time.
Jim
The food was very good and the service outstanding. was disappointed in the chocolate torte for dessert - rather heavy and dry. Otherwise the experience was exceptional.
Kevin
Beautiful space... a fair amount of ambient noise ... drinks were good ... fried artichokes and focaccia were great ... pasta sauces a little heavy ... perhaps not enough wait staff ... took a long time for drinks but staff were nice
Sean
Fantastic as always! So glad we could make it in one more time. You all will be very missed, but so looking forward to what's next!
Food is overpriced and portions are wildly different. Some at our table had large portions and some had a few bites of pasta. It is not worth it for me to come back at this price. I took my family here for a celebration dinner and most everyone left feeling unsatisfied sadly.

Came here with high hopes and left really disappointed. I took my family here for my dad's retirement celebration - some had large, hearty portions and some had very light, few bites of pasta meal. I left here spending hundreds of dollars and just don't think it was worth the value, sadly.
Gee Bee
Love this spot with its fabulous food, cocktails, happy hour specials and airy atmosphere!

Brittany is masterful - from the simple salad of Manakin Farms greens and radishes, lightly dressed with a slightly mustardy, deeply umami blend of oil and vinegar to the amazing chili crisp that accompanied the perfect grilled chicken through the fabulously prepared and topped medium rare burger, not a trick was missed. We look forward to the next iteration of The Best of Brittany in the same space in the coming months (we hope that soon!). We hear it's seafood...yes!!

Thank you for another wonderful dinner and excellent service. I came with a friend and this was her first time at BP. She loved it! Always a great experience.
