Ms. Chalaine was friendly, helpful, and attentive. The food was delicious. We recommend the Eggs Benedict, Eggs Sardou, and, of course, the Bananas Foster. The Brennan's Bloody Mary is one of the best, if not the best. Dining at Brennan's is an enjoyable and relaxing experience.

The yellowfin tuna tartare, firecracker tuna tacos, and BBQ shrimp were very fresh and delicious. The complimentary biscuits were served right out the oven and cooked to perfection. I was blown away at how good the Golden Beet salad was, and it was perfect paired with the Scalibut and Parmesan crusted sheepshead. I was pleasantly surprised with the entree fish portion sizes and to top it off, our waiter, Cardale, was phenomenal!
