Delicious dinner with a beautiful view. The filet mignon is always delicious and they had a lobster tail and filet special on my wife's birthday. And the mud pie for dessert finished our dinner perfectly 👌.

We arrived early and went to Happy Hour, which was cozy with a fireplace and good appetizer: calamari. All the servers were super friendly and helpful. They seated us at a comfortable booth and we had the house salad: full of healthy and yummy ingredients. The swordfish and risotto was amazing. It was cooked to perfection and so flavorful. Others enjoyed the ahi. We have been to many Brigantines: this is the flagship and in my opinion is the best for food and service. My cousin whose is a pilot is going to recommend to other flight crews. Also a close walk to lovely scenery at Shelter Island. Thank you.
