My "go to" spot in Kirkland. Great customer service and nice a selection of wines. The pork chop is my favorite, although it's currently not on the menu. Plenty of good choices on the menu: chicken Marsala, salmon and burger to name a few.

Decent cafe bistro food. Pricey. Good bar and wine selection. Too many families with young children can make this a noisy experience though. Staff very professional.

Been there twice in the last 10 days. Love their Warm Broccoli Salad and the Brussels Sprouts. Today I sat at the bar and had their broccoli cheddar soup... heaven! Super friendly and thoughtful bartender was icing on the cake. I will probably become a regular.

My friend and I love brix! They have a great hh and amazing chopped salad. The service is hit or miss but overall we love coming here time and time again!

Great place with European cuisine. In Brix I've tried only white house wine and it is good, but I go there not for wine but for food. Menu fits one page plus daily (or weekly?) little additions list from chef. And all our orders so far were delicious. Kuddos to Chef for all awesome sauces that gives outstanding taste even for mashed potatoes. Portion size here is just enough for one person. Family favorite picks: scallops, salmon, duck from chef's list, house-burger, Brownie with ice cream and French press coffee.

It is a good place to hangout with friends. Though not the best place for kids. We ordered charcuterie board which was ok nothing special . Kids pizza was good, for adults we ordered Steak, Tuna dish, Salmon and Risotto. Everything was decent except for risotto which was under cooked and was grainy with no salt or flavor. Risotto is something one slow cooks and let it melt away in the flavors by constantly adding water while cooking and stirring. It looked like they either pressure cooked or even boiled risotto rice before then mixed it in the sauce. Can see how the rice had cracked open which means fast cookIng under pressure .Total disappointment as that was my dish! We got bottle of wine that was pretty decent.

I've dined a Brix several times over the past couple of years. I have to say that while they used to be quite good, I've come to suspect that the chef is either a smoker or cutting corners. In recent memory, there was risotto that's a bit mushy and flavorless, with overpriced wine and steak bites that were merely ok. Another time, the truffle mac and cheese was way too salty, but still edible despite the use of notably fake truffle oil. However last night was truly the turning point to becoming a complete overpriced waste. The steak bites were actually downright bad. They tasted like they had been defrosted, refrozen, and then microwaved a week later, probably in whatever brown sauce came in the bag. While not actually diseased enough to cause you to get ill, that meat was definitely gamey, and not at all fresh. Additionally, the butternut squash ravioli: while the ravioli itself was decent, the sauce was completely flavorless and bland - something which I preferred immensely to the steak bites. As a brown beurre sauce, it tasted more like liberal amounts of white flower than butter. But even then, it had "fried leeks" on top, which had the consistency of beach grass. Overall, not a really good meal, but one that was good enough to eat. For the price, you can do better.

Brix is my favorite restaurant. I used to live in the apartments next door and was there at-least twice a week. I always sat at the bar. Rebecca is the absolute sweetest. Great server and bartender. Daniel is a wonderful manager. Always has a smile on his face! Greets his customers by name and is just overall a fabulous host. I live in Seattle now and rarely get to the Eastside but ANY time I am remotely in the area I stop by to have a glass of wine and a snack. Tonight, I

Always delicious! The pear & pancetta flatbread is a consistent favorite!

Their salmon glaze was pretty damn tasty. Salmon was cooked perfectly and served over a bed of spinich and mashed potatoes. The peanut pesto aioli for the calamari was very interesting, but needed a touch more salt.

Went for a really nice and well serviced dinner at Brix. Our server was fantastic, on top of everything, couldn’t ask for better. The pear and gorgonzola salad was great. Chicken pot pie was super as was the chicken marsala. Excellent creme brûlée and apple bread pudding to finish with. Comfortable seating and a nice atmosphere all around! Well done!

I went to Brix for the first time in 10 years a few weeks ago. I had the kale and quinoa salad and the calamari. They were both fantastic. The calamari is the most well prepared, non-rubbery calamari I've ever tried. And the pesto that comes with it pairs perfectly. The Kale and quinoa salad was so perfect. Everything in it complimented the salad. Last night I went again, and I tried the warm broccoli salad and it was phenomenal. I could eat that every day. I don't k ow how they cook the broccoli so perfectly. And the anchovies dressing is so delicious. We also had the calamari again. I added prawns to both salads because I need a little protein, and these are also cooked perfectly. Service was amazing. I wish I could remember her name. My mom and I decided this is going to be our new go-to spot. I'm really impressed.

Nothing special for me. I don’t drink so I only focus on food. Average menu and limited selection. The burgers were good but nothing special.
