    The food was fabulous. If you want good service with a great steak come here. We sat at the piano bar and had a wine prior to dinner the piano player was exception both playing and singing. We started with the chopped salad that had a really good Italian dressing.. My husband and I had the bone in ribeye with a loaded baked potato with sautéed onion and mushrooms. Was scrumptious. Highly recommend. It has an old school steak house feel. Very dark and sexy atmosphere. The service was outstanding. .

    "5/5 stars! Our steak dinner at Briquettes was absolutely phenomenal! The food was cooked to perfection, and the service was top-notch. But what really made our evening special was the exceptional hospitality from our host, Toby. He went above and beyond by setting our table with a bouquet of flowers and our homemade pottery. It was such a thoughtful touch that made our night truly unforgettable. We can't wait to come back to Briquettes!"

    Wonderful experience. Staff was awesome, including the secondary waitstaff who assisted with drink refills/other items. Upside down cornbread wasn’t awesome, BBQ shrimp sauce was a little overpowering, but flatbread, fries, and dumplings were fantastic. Cotton candy was a cute and fun addition - made the kids feel special. Will absolutely return to try different items - about to choose from.

    We are locals and return patrons of this totally fantastic neighborhood steakhouse restaurant, and we dined here for lunch on a very busy Valentines Day. Service by longtime favorite waiter, Kevin, (and team assistant Gina), was attentive, friendly and professional. Our cocktails were superbly crafted, and appetizers of house salad and shrimp/roasted pepper soup were followed by a perfectly-cooked medium-rare Porterhouse-For-Two steak, with baked Blue Cheese Crust as an extra, with a side of Brussels Sprouts, complemented with glasses of Joel Gott Cab. Another great dining experience at one of our favorite Warehouse District restaurants, thank you!
