The Brigantine is more than just home to some of San Diego’s finest seafood. It’s a place where locals and visitors alike come to share a lively atmosphere and authentic sense of community. The Morton family opened the first Brigantine on Shelter Island in 1969, with a vision that embraced the beach town lifestyle, a dedication to flavorful food, and a passion for friendly service. Today, we’re known far and wide for our San Diego-style surf and turf. From our award-winning fish tacos and freshly shucked oysters, to classic filet mignon or our perpetually best-selling marinated grilled swordfish. Always prepared to exceed expectations, and served with a smile. You can stop in at any neighborhood Brigantine and get a taste of the local flavor, from regionally inspired specials, to custom cocktails and home town craft beers. At the Brigantine we make first timers feel like regulars, and consider regulars part of the family. So come by often, and share our taste for life.

The Brigantine clam chowder and shrimp cocktail were excellent starters. We enjoyed steak and eggs, a lobster omelette and a burger for our brunch. The ambiance was fantastic. As a side note we were brought to the area for the day due to the Rams Super Bowl Trophy Tour that took place in the Lighthouse district of Seaport Village.

Our waitress was lovely, but the rest of the staff was so not nice. We had a hair on our oysters and when we told a waitress walking by, she totally ignored us no kept walking. The food was so pricey and tasted like frozen food. Such a bummer for the cost. Really bummed we picked here when there are so many other incredible restaurants in the area. Would NOT recommend.

We thought it would be a nice place for a special occasion. While it has many positive aspects, it did feel like a too busy too loud touristy restaurant. We appreciate it the food allergies noted on the menu, so didn’t make a big point of having a gluten-free diner to the waiter (even though we had included it in our reservation). When ordering my entrée, I mentioned that I wanted to be sure it was gluten-free, even it was marked on the menu. That’s when the waiter told me that the appetizer we had just finished was not gluten-free, even though it had been represented as such on the menu. He said that it could’ve been adapted to be gluten-free. They had a whole other category for that, and he agreed it was mislabeled. He took it off the bill, but implied his manager did not agree with my reasoning. It just kind of put a damper on everything, combined with the hectic somewhat unpleasant atmosphere.

We had a few starters, the raw oysters tasted very fresh, the grilled oysters were delicious and the Spanish octopus was cooked very well, it was tender and seasoned well. The mussels were good. My friend and I got the halibut and the swordfish, both were dried and overcooked. My husband got the scallops, he said they were ok. All the sides that came with it were tasty. Overall, I would return for the patio view and starters. But if you’re looking for really good fish, there are better places.

I’m so pleased to see the company do well. The family run business replaces another long time family (the Ghio’s) run restaurant! Two very nice San Diego families. My Dad went to SDSU with Tony (Anthony) Ghio and I went to PLHS with the Morton’s. Love to see a part of San Diego built by San Diegans!

We also got the grilled salmon, scallops and swordfish. BBQ sauce on the grilled salmon was weird. Scallops were cooked well but there was barely any purée sauce on it so there was no flavor. And the swordfish was so overcooked, all I could taste was the char.

A host was rude- she accused us of sitting at the wrong table once we were seated by another host, and demanded to know the name of the other host. Then, our waiter promised a wine price (due to being out of stock) but then did not ensure that our bill reflected that price. We felt like an after thought most of our time there- waters were not replenished, our food was not very flavorful and no one checked in with us to see if we liked it, etc. It is sad that my friends came here for the first time and this was their experience- it’s a shame that the food service industry has lost some of the standards in terms of customer service.

I had eaten the SAME dish at the Brigantine Del Mar on the SAME week and it was delicious. I convinced 2 other guests to order it at the Brigantine Portside Pier... It arrived cold, dry, and looked like a cheap "Fish & Chips" fish breaded piece and to top it all... NO Macdemia in sight. The exact same item at the Brigantine Del Mar was delivered hot, encrusted with Macademia and lightly breaded. It was delicious there... What a difference !!! If you are thinking of ordering this dish, go to the Brigantine Del Mar. You will love it there !!! The view is amazing from the Terrace and the top floor.

The restaurant complex, itself, is a spectacular, vibrant addition to the San Diego Embarcadero, and the Brigantine at Portside Pier never fails to deliver ... amazing views, capable and friendly staff, and excellent food at reasonable prices. The Crab Stuffed Tiger Shrimp is terrific!

My wife and I were celebrating our anniversary and ordered a bottle of wine. We ordered the mussels (which is highly recommend) but don’t think we’d had maybe 2 and out came the Caesar salad. We said we weren’t ready for it yet and we’re trying to enjoy the mussels. He surprisingly asked if he should take it back. When our regular server arrived we explained we were going to finish our cocktails and mussels but really didn’t want the meal to get log-jammed and she took care of it. BTW we next had the pork chops which were phenomenal. Definitely would eat here again.

Tonight the ahi and lobster were okay, but both New York Steaks we had were overcooked, gristly,and looked and tasted like cafe steaks. They were busy, times are tough, so we didn’t complain. The menu was also missing many of of our favorite items this time. The worst was the Expresso martinis. Just a mixed drink, no foam, and no beans. It had a bizarre taste, but I think it was because the just mixed it all together like a regular martini, I don’t know. How the bartender in an upscale restaurant doesn’t know what an Expresso martini is, is beyond me. As I said, it is hit or miss here. Sometimes very good, sometimes bleh. Brigantine is overall a good restaurant countywide, so we continue to support. The view can’t be beat. It is a wonderful location and those of us who’ve been going to this location for over 50 years when the other restaurant was there will probably continue to go because of nostalgia and the love of the area. Tonight my family feels like we wasted three hundred dollars. Go for the view and atmosphere.
