    We spend 7-9 weeks annually in Breck and always dine at BRB. Never disappoints we always comment that we wish we could find a go to restaurant offering the same combo of selection, quality, service and value in the other cities web spend time. BRB was the first meal we had in Breck 13 years ago, you have met or exceeded or expectations ever since.

    Great restaurant in the heart of downtown Breck! We brought our young child with us and they were super accommodating. The salmon was delicious. Very reasonably priced and lots of great options on the menu. We’ll definitely come back!

    Everything was excellent. Food was delicious. Server was super friendly and on top of things. My daughter and I shared a pork chop and my husband had the trout special, both dishes were cooked to perfection. We found the bottle prices on wine to be very fair. Definitely returning.
