    This is one our go to restaurant in the Ann Arbor area as the food is generally of high quality. This time my wife had the filet with blue cheese crust and as normal was excellent. I had the special consisting of pinwheel beef. Though tasty it unfortunately was not very tender and had a lot of fat but what was most disappointing was the portion presented. There was only two small pieces of beef on the plate and for $38 it was a total disappointment. The glass of Prisoner red blend wine was excellent but the other had sediment in the glass. We normally think this is the best restaurant in Brighton but this time it failed to live up to our expectations.

    A local neighborhood gem to be sure. A staple in the Brighton downtown- always crowded for a reason.

    First time there. Food was great, Loved the atmosphere. We let our server know we were going to relax with a drink and catch up first. She was constantly at our table pushing us to order, they were not busy(Tuesday night)and while I appreciate an attentive server she was actually rude at times. We tipped well, however would not suggest them for a relaxing night.

    Everything about the experience was great, except that they sat us in a closed off room next to a table of women (8-10) who were loud and obnoxious. The experience would have been much better if we had been seated in the bar area or the main dining area. In fact a family of 5 with 3 kids under 8 years old walked in right before us without a reservation, and they were sat in the main dining area. I feel it would have been more appropriate to sit my wife and I in the main dining area, and to have used the closed off room for noisier guests since the restaurant knew that a larger group of women would surely be boisterous. It should have been common sense to sit the family of five in the separated room next to the larger party instead of a couple with a reservation.

    We have been here many times but for some reason the drinks are getting worse and inconsistent. I expect much more for expensive drinks.

    We have been coming to BB&G since it opened. This visit we had the curry and steak Benedict. The curry is my favorite dish, it’s savory and a little sweet. The ambiance and service were great.

    When reservation made had a choice of high top our standard table. When we arrived staff was prepared to seat us at a high top. We reiterated that we had requested a standard table and all they offered us was a booth in the bar area. Wait staff were excellent. Food was great!
