Brigantine Seafood - Coronado

Happy Hour is a good offer for food specialists. $6 per: Shell Shells, Salad, Fish Taco Slider. Excellent service. Popular for outdoor dining.

We had an amazing experience! Israel was the best server we have had on our whole trip. Definitely recommend!!

The location (directly across from the Hotel del Coronado) and the ambiance were both excellent. The Christmas decorations were tasteful, without subtracting from the setting by being ostentatious. Likewise, the music added to the setting without overwhelming the patrons by sheer volume. I had high hopes for the Clam Chowder and Macadamia Crusted Mahi and they were both good, but didn’t keep pace with the location and the ambiance. I would definitely recommend a local beer on the menu (Coronado Brewing Weekend Vibes IPA).

Oh my gosh the brussel sprouts were to die for. We ate in the bar and enjoyed the hustle and bustle. Great kids menu.

I had a decent experience at this restaurant. I visited on a Saturday at 9 a.m., so the main dining area was closed, but the Oyster Bar menu was available and had plenty of options. The service was good and quite prompt. We ordered a beer, the Day Spa cocktail, the Jumbo Klumpen crab cake, a swordfish taco, and Cioppino. The Day Spa cocktail was very sweet—too sweet for my taste, as I was expecting a cooler, more subtle flavor profile. However, the crab cake, especially the fresh claw, was delicious. The taco was just okay—not particularly impressive—but the addition of their hot sauce improved it. The Cioppino was decent, though the white fish in it wasn't great. On the bright side, the accompanying garlic bread was fantastic, especially when served warm! Overall, it was a decent meal for the time of day, but I’m uncertain if I'd return specifically for the Oyster Bar menu. I did notice signs advertising Sip Color, brunch, and half-off wine on Wednesdays, so I might check those out sometime.
