    This was our 2nd time at Brothers, but the 1st at the new location. Amazing place, service & hospitality was on point. Even the owner stopped by our table to check on us & others…which is a big deal. The gentleman who provided the live music was great, love his rendition of all the hits he played. And finally, the food & drinks were outstanding!!! My wife ordered a Lemon drop cocktail & she said it was the best she ever had. Will definitely be coming back and recommend Brothers to our friends as well.

    Very nice experience! The food was excellent. Emmanuel and the staff were very good, welcoming, friendly and appropriately attentive. (Not overbearing, but there when needed with excellent insight to the food and wine, and some interesting history on the location) This is definitely a top shelf experience and steak house. I highly recommend it for a great night out.

    Wonderful dinner and ambiance. The inside is very interesting and nice. Service was outstanding. We loved the food but even the cocktails were superbly made. Best French 75 my wife said she ever had. Can't comment on desert because food was so good and portions well done that didn't have room!

    My wife and I went in for Valentines Day and everything was on point! The service Lindsey provided was great and the food that was recommended was just as good. We had drinks, appetizers (the oysters and scallops were 10/10), entrees and dessert. This was our first time visiting but definitely will not be the last!

    Good to be back again and find some nice improvements. The menu has been revamped after years of growing stale with the same old/same old, each of the salads and appetizers we tried were well executed and the rockfish entree was very good. They still split portions for my wife and myself since we like to share giving us the opportunity to try more dishes.
