    Great experience for the holidays with the Miracle on Brickmans theme. The food was great and energy level overall was super festive. It was packed so there were some service opportunities but overall….great job!

    First of all, the Christmas decor is outstanding making you feel festive from the moment you enter the restaurant. Despite the crowd, service was excellent thanks to Vlad who brought drinks promptly (the Rose was delicious) The food came out hot and it was an amazing brunch of smoked salmon, the Benny (Eggs Benedict their way!), and an Egg Sandwich. Followed all this up with a double espresso and you have an amazing brunch. I highly recommend!

    It was great. Unfortunately, it was Hard to get an outdoor spot, but the indoor one worked out nicely.

    Prices have risen, since name change from “The Grill,” but so has the venue’s appearance, food quality and service. I’ll visit less often, due to prices, but I’ll consider Brickmans for special meals, such as my recent birthday dinner. Really great experience!

    We were seated quickly, and someone gave us water immediately. It took about 40 minutes to even be acknowledged by our waitress. When she came over she asked if we’ve even been helped yet—and she was shocked when we said no because she “saw us sitting there for a long time”. Food was mediocre & the drinks were just ok. Probably wouldn’t go back.
