Brigantine Seafood & Oyster Bar San Diego Reviews
Worst bartenders I've ever seen
I am passing through San Diego and met a friend of mine for cocktails and a quick bite to eat. We sat at the bar. The service was terrible. We are both restaurant people that have been in this business for years. The service was horrible four bartend

Love enjoying some great food and great drinks on the water! Everytime I've been to a location the service has been top notch.
Disappointed.
58th wedding anniversary special occasion. Sound levels were so loud we could not hear each other. 6:15 pm table for two at a patio table facing the setting sun should have been special and romantic but turned out to be terrible, sun directly into ou
Service and food was amazing.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone. The quality of the seafood was impeccable.
Great location.
Terrific food. My favorite is the grilled swordfish tacos and the grilled swordfish.
Fish Taco Excellence
The food & views here are spectacular. Slightly pricey but incredibly worth it. Yummy fish tacos. Good service. Highly recommend.
Wonderful food with a great view!
We walked down to this restaurant after touring the USS Midway. The atmosphere is so beautiful overlooking the water. Our original waiter was very kind and moved us to a place in the shade as the sun was beating directly in our faces and it was a ver

Food was great, service was top notch and the restaurant is beautiful! It's right on the water too!
There's many Brigantine restaurants but we liked this one by the harbor in San Diego. Great views!!!
The great views of the harbor is the main draw to this Seafood restaurant by San Diego's beautiful harbor. Book an outdoor table prior to sunset and you'll have a delicious memory of a dinner with friends, family or whomever. There's e
I had really high expectations of this place.
.. if you want great food dont come here. food is lacking in any taste/palette. weird combinations like mango ceviche on top of a crab cake with sweet and sour sauce???presentation is terrible (look at the photos). I would think this restaurant had s

We went last night and initially I was super turned off by the hostess who couldn't even bother to look up at us as we put our name in. Definitely needed some customer service training but the rest of the experience was so positive that I couldn
3 restaurants in one all with views of mission bay.
.. Each space has their own ambiance and great for any size party. Cocktails were scrumptious and the menu had something for everyone. Good service. Parking is a bit of a bear ( we ubered)) and was glad we did.
Food is disappointing.
You are only paying for the view, and depending on your waiter the service can also be a little meh. I have to imagine that these positive reviews are either tourists or older clientele who don't really have a palette anymore. But they just li
We came here after my company's quarterly outing.
The view was really great. They order almost everything on the menu. Couple of seafood platters, crab cakes, lobster tacos, Nan Minh, lobster Mac and cheese, oysters. Yummy!!! Food was amazing. Drinks were even better. Highly recommend this place!!
Lovely restaurant
We really loved it here, it has a lovely view, the food is so tasty, the children’s menu is really good and the service is great too! Definitely one to return to.
Atmosphere great. Food was so-so. Services was good!
The atmosphere was great…. The service was great… the food was so-so for price. The large crab cake starter was not very good at all. Maybe it was because we’re spoiled and have had Louisiana crab cakes and other really good crab cakes. Th
Wonderful experience.
This restaurant replaced Anthonys and I did not think it could beat the taste and great fish there but it surpassed it in a great way. The service was cordial, and the table outside next to the harbor had a fantastic view. The food was aboslutely a
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Very clean and classy looking restaurant. We chose to seat outside in the patio area to enjoy the breeze. Decorated impeccably. Service started off slow at first but it picked up later. Baked oysters were fabulous as was fish and chips. Strawber
Try the bread pudding!
Great location and view and ambiance. Food was good. Had Rock oysters and crab louie salad. Saw they had bread pudding with berries and ice cream. My wife likes to try bread pudding at any restaurant that serve it. This one is the best !
Best lunch of our vacation!
My daughter and I had lunch here on our San Diego trip. Best food we had on our entire one week vacation! And the best margaritas too! I had the tuna poke bowl, she had the spinach salad, and we had the margaritas with Grand Marnier. We ate at t
Perfect place for a nice dinner with a view outside.
We all loved our food, I split the burger and lobster tacos both good but I prefer the burger. The coconut shrimp to start was delicious. We got the mud pie for dessert and it was seriously the best !! Highly encourage you to save room for that. Our
Service? 6 stars ((Max was attentive and knowledgeable ).
) Food was equally amazing and the view was outstanding! A very memorable meal.
Brigatine may be my favorite seafood restaurant.
.. especially this location! First of all, the location is undeniably the bestttt in San Diego. It sits perfectly on San Diego Bay right next to the Star of India ship. Parking is brutal, but they do have valet & street parking. Just be patient o
Pricey oysters, pricey drinks.
Nice view and ambience, but not worth the price. They have an outdoor area but dogs are not allowed out there.

Seated right away in the bar.
Great server. My oysters on the half shell were delicious. Poke with ahi tuna was also very good. Husband's wagyu beef sliders were over cooked. Friend's fish and chips were delicious per him. Cocktail way too watery so they replaced with one slight

First of all this restaurant is lovely overlooking the water, and the staff was very nice. There was only one vegetarian option called "Cauliflower Steak" -- I thought it sounded interesting but I was wrong. It was very pretty food, but bla
A nice stop for SWORDFISH
A nice stop on the water. Our waiter Tanner was excellent. The swordfish was FANTASTIC (must try this even if you don’t usually eat swordfish as it was cooked perfectly) & scallops were good. We didn’t care for the crab & shrimp fondue ap

We have eaten here in the past and it was fine but we went Mother's Day and it was an experience where we won't come here again. It is not their fault we had to park 1.2 miles away and my husband had to walk but we are seniors in our 70's and without
Best waterfront resto!
We went for a drink and just an appetizer and we get to have a great view of the bay! It was a perfect waterfront venue and it was sunny that time so all good. The ambience was very beautiful overlooking the maritime museum, etc. The staff were very
Nice location on the harbor.
Not crazy loud but it is kinda loud in here on a Friday night. Our waiter Conner D. was great as well as the hostess this evening. Only negative was I felt the mahi tacos could use a little crema as they seemed a little dry. The fresh kettle chips we

It was nice other than when we were outside it rained, and we were escorted in quickly. So our waiter forgot about us for a while. It was busy, so it wasn't terrible because it was the end of our service. Other than that food was a little pricey, but

A must when in San Diego :-D

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Brigantine Seafood & Oyster Bar San Diego at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Brigantine Seafood & Oyster Bar San Diego page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)

* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid

* EternalAnt36 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to EternalAnt36 for any questions Peter may have as EternalAnt36 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* EternalAnt36 now uses their connections at Brigantine Seafood & Oyster Bar San Diego to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If EternalAnt36 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, EternalAnt36 receives the $200 reward which is credited to EternalAnt36's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Brigantine Seafood & Oyster Bar San Diego!
