    Everything was perfect until I got my Louis salad that I asked for half the amount. I’ve been to Brigantine many many times and never had such a small portion and they told me I was gonna have extra lettuce and yet it was drenched in salad dressing. the seafood was great, but the salad was inadequate. My server did bring a to go container with fresh salad and seafood in it to make up for it. The chef needs to learn what it is to do half salad. $18. Wasted.

    A Fun “Old School” restaurant which has a great menu. Prime Rib sandwich and Caesar salad are tops! We love the interior of the restaurant- recommend the owners spruce up the exterior- looks “tired”. Highly recommend!

    Another fabulous evening at Bob’s! Jeff delivered fabulous service in spite of the fact the restaurant was jam packed! We all ordered something different and everyone raved about their meal. The blue cheese salad is excellent and was served in ice cold dishes. My rib eye was perfectly cooked and seasoned to perfection. Other dinners were rack of lamb, filet mignon and duck. Everyone loved their dinners. Bob’s always delivers great service and fabulous food and is the best steakhouse in San Diego County in my opinion. It is also our favorite restaurant!
