My husband and I went for our Anniversary and everything was fantastic from the food, drinks, vibe, view and the wait staff. Our waitress Anna was so nice, sweet and knowledgeable. The Manager Chris was great too. All in all this place was a 10 out of 10 experience!

Everything from the location to the dining experience was top notch. We greeted by valet as soon as we drove up. They were professional, dressed appropriately, and welcoming. The hostess greeted us with warmth and it felt like she was waiting for us. The waiters both, Fransico and Cesar were excllent in educating us on the food and drink menu. They were fun and accommodating. The ambiance was fine dining and perfect for mom's birthday. The icing on the cake was the manager, Jonathan because he gave the history of the building and showed me around which was a good thing as I host events and frequently rent spaces out and he was overall great to talk to, he made me want to hangout with him.. I will definitely be back and with events.

This place sucks! it is on the edge of a boardwalk but if you walk in wearing anything less than a dress or tux they will tell you that you have to have a reservation. We walked in, the place was half empty but apparently their first reservation was at 5:00 and we had shown up at 4:00 later once we went to a separate restaurant we checked their website and there was reservations available for earlier times than they told us.

So my wife and I made reservations for our 10th anniversary. We have visited the restaurant a few time before with exceptional service everytime, so that's why I didn't understand what happened ended this time. First, yes we did make a a later reservation because I had to work earlier in the day, but the service that we we received was very sub par leading to my wife and I leaving before we were served our drinks, which was about 30 into or dinner. Im not sure if the waitress had amnesia or something, but she asked for our dink and app order literally 5 times. Im not exaggerating on that. You would ask for our order leave the table and come and ask us again. This happened multiple times. Would would tell her our order she would leave the table then return sometime later and ask us again. After sitting and not being served anything for half an hour we decided to leave, which sucked because it was to late to eate dinner anywhere else. This turned out to be a waste of a night. By the way, my wife and I have 5 kids so date night are few and far between. That's also why this so upsetting. We trusted Brenners with our 10th anniversary dinner and was completely let down. If that waitress has some sort of disability I would like to know, because something was definitely off there.

We chose Brenner’s Steakhouse to celebrate our anniversary, and it turned out to be such a beautiful evening.
From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere felt warm, elegant, and special. It was the perfect setting to slow down, enjoy each other’s company, and celebrate another year together.
The food was absolutely delicious, and every dish we had was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. The service was also wonderful—attentive, friendly, and thoughtful throughout the evening.
What made the experience especially memorable was how comfortable and relaxed we felt. Brenner’s gave us exactly the kind of special evening we were hoping for. We left happy, full, and grateful for another anniversary together.
Definitely a place we would love to return to for another special occasion!
