    The first three times we dined here the food was very good, but the last time was disappointing. We decided to try again last night which was a mistake. The last very good meal I had was Coquille St. Jacques. Although online it's listed on their menu, last night they had scallops au gratin instead. The entree was just 3 scallop shells each with one scallop covered with mushrooms in a sauce which was too salty. I don't think I've ever had just 3 (normal sized) scallops in an entree before but worse yet, at $38, it was almost $13 per scallop! On line the menu also listed steak frites which my wife enjoyed previously but it wasn't on the menu last night. She had a smash burger instead which had no flavor. We mentioned the inconsistency to our waitress who said the chef had changed recently but the new chef had come from Houston White which is their steakhouse restaurant. On a positive note the cocktails were still very good.

    It took a long time for a server to be assigned to our table but once she was, Amber was great. Unfortunately she did not make up for the poor quality of the food. 3 small scallops for $42 with a sauce that overpowered and was tasteless...it was not good value and very disappointing. The shrimp and grits were mounded with a gooey brown gravy that was not only unappetizing but did not live up to what shrimp and grits is all about. My friends and i will not return. The restaurant owners need to look at previous reviews and to guide the major changes that are needed. I can guess they could not care less since previous patrons have noted a down-ward trend in quality of the dishes and service and there seems to be no adjustments. No attention to detail...

    Our server, Peter was great. Food was wonderful and the setting is just so charming (we sat on the porch)! Would definitely recommend this for a memorable dining experience right in downtown Lewes.

    Went for Mother’s Day brunch. Food was good. Presentation of food was disappointing. I ordered green eggs and ham which looked like it was quickly thrown onto the plate. It was tasty though. Also, the menu said potatoes and I got tater tots for some reason. Maybe I look like Napoleon Dynomite. So all in all, the food was good, but because of the tots and presentation I left with a so-so experience.

    One of our best meals at Bramble & Brine. Crab cake and salmon entree’s and carrot cake cheesecake to finish. Great table on the porch facing 2nd Street, for people watching.

    We had blackened salmon and seafood Mac and both were very good. The carrot cheesecake to finish, was a real winner as well.

    Underwhelming experience. Atmosphere (including the super cute menus) were both great. Restaurant was not busy at all for a Saturday but curiously had long gaps where we had no service (no water or drink replenishments). Food was just average. My burger was very oversalted and it said on the menu that it came w house made potato wedges but instead it came w tater tots. Felt a bit unsatisfied considering the price points.
