    Service was bad and we saw a rat. Our waiter kept running away before taking everyone’s order and would disappear for long stretches of time before coming back even though the restaurant was empty. Food was very salty and shrimp was undercooked and fishy

    This was our first time at Briquette and we all really liked it. We were able to book a table for 9 the same day. Everyone liked their appetizers and meals. The cocktail list was great and our waiter was awesome.

    We like visiting here for dinner as a special treat once or twice a year. The restaurant is classy but casual. Service is always excellent and very attentive. Cost on appetizers has gone up a bit since our last visit but entrees have remained about the same. We like to splurge when we come since it's not a regular occurrence. As someone who does not like fish much but loves seafood, this is a perfect option as my fellow diners like to have fish options and they have revised some of the entrees. My sister really enjoyed her blackened redfish and my steak and scallop entree was so delicious.

    I don't review restaurants often, but this was just a disappointment. The room is so loud, it is hard to hear. Rib eye was mediocre at best. Pasta drowning in butter. Ahi tuna appetizer had very little ahi. Just completely out of whack with the price point.
