    This is without a doubt our favorite restaurant. Was there last week, we had the oysters rocker feller. They were amazing, also the chicken was a 10 out of 10. I had the caprese shrimp. Excellent. We look forward to the weekly changing menu. Highly recommend.

    This is our favorite restaurant and we are foodies who have traveled all over the world. Check out their menu which changes weekly. Every dish is amazing! Here is a picture of the Valentine’s cake.

    Even though the menu changes it is always difficult to choose because everything is excellent. I’ve never had anything at Brent’s that wasn’t awesome.

    The reason for the four, I had a vegetarian dish that was not very good. I’m a regular customer so I know the quality of food Brent’s serves. I highly recommend this restaurant. They were also kind enough to take it off the bill.
