Brick & Brine – Believe the Hype We visited Brick & Brine to celebrate my wife’s birthday, and let’s just say—they understood the assignment. Our server, Travis, was exactly what you want in a dining companion: helpful and attentive without hovering like a drone. His timing and suggestions were on point. The night kicked off with warm, freshly baked bread—simple, perfect, and gone faster than we’d like to admit. Our appetizer followed: house-made meatballs nestled in a rich marinara, served with seasoned focaccia points that were clearly doing more than just soaking up sauce. On the drinks front: I ordered a top-shelf smoked Old Fashioned that arrived in a glass cloche, theatrically unveiled with a swirl of aromatic smoke—equal parts performance and perfection. My wife tried two craft cocktails that were both expertly balanced, flavorful, and, in her words, “dangerously sippable.” She chose the brick chicken for her entrée, served with crispy potatoes and green beans. The chicken was juicy, full of flavor, and avoided the dry, rubbery fate that too often befalls this dish. She loved every bite. I started with a wedge salad that nailed the classic—crisp, cold, and generously topped—then went all in on the cowboy pork chop, paired with chimichurri and asparagus. It was bold, tender, and cooked with the kind of confidence that dares you not to finish it (I accepted that challenge). We wrapped it up with a strawberry almond crostata and house-made vanilla ice cream—warm, buttery, and decadent enough to make you momentarily forget how full you are. Thank you, ~Herb
