CHECK IT OUT!

The "new" Brix ROCKS! It's under new management and has a new menu. It's cleaner, friendlier and the food is GREAT! Service was very friendly!! Everyone should check it out! Additional improvements are on the way. I recommend this to everyone!!! The Halibut was great! The Strawberry Cole Slaw unique and delicious. Casual, friendly, yet classy! CHECK IT OUT!!!
Great Food, Great Service

My boyfriend and I went to Brix last weekend for the first time. We sat in the dinning room - very romantic atmosphere. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, even though the whole back room was full. She suggested the baked goat cheese as an app... it was delicious! We were so impressed! We decided to order our dinner based on suggestions as well... blackened salmon and the beef tenderloin. They came out perfect! You never know what you're going to get when you try a new place, but we were "wowed" by Brix. Our waitress fessed up that she was a newer server, but all of her suggestions were great. Overall, we will continue to recommend this restaurant and definitely go back soon!
Disappointing

I looked forward to an evening with 11 friends at Brix. I ordered the blue cheese salad wedge...they were out (of lettuce?...on a Saturday?) Whatever, I changed it to mixed greens which was good. I ordered the mac n cheese for the entree with the intention of sharing. The waitress comes back 15 MINUTES later and says they are out (out of pasta? out of cheese?) anyway, ordered the halibut which I requested they comp (and they did, but no manager ever came to the table to see how we were doing) Ok, the halibut was very small, I'm not a big eater but it was $24. and around 3-4oz. Glad I didn't pay for that. Everyone was happy with their steaks but my husband had the misfortune of ordering the shrimp bowtie pesto. Well... I felt bad for him, he's a big guy and his dinner looked like it was off a child's menu. There were about 3-4 shrimpy shrimp plus some overcooked pasta... : ( All this was compounded by super slow service (1 hour between appetizers and entrees) no bread received after we had to ask for it, and a waitress who said twice that it was not her fault they were out of menu items. All in all, this was a disappointing experience and Brix needs to step it up. There are too many great restaurants in Denver to tolerate the apathy we experienced at Brix.
Wonderful time but.........

My boyfriend and I and another couple went on a Wednesday night and sat out on their patio which I never knew they had. It was happy hour time and I LOVE the fact that you can get 3 started apps for 1/2 off which is only $5!!! We got the Hummus, the olive plate and the wonderful pesto dip which was so fresh and good. When dinner came out I was shocked that my Halibut was as small as it was for $24. But after I ate it I was perfectly full and didn't have to go home with leftovers that I never eat anyway. My one an only complaint was the way the staff dressed. The decor and feel that Brix gives off is upscale but casual and relaxing, however, our waitress was dress in a hoodie that was too short and it was showing her stomach and flip flops. I thought that if you worked in a restaurant you HAD to wear closed toed shoes. I was so confused why she was dressed like she was going to the park. Ohhh well the experience was overall great and I would go back. Plus.........there is a free parking lot right next to it starting at 5.
TONS of POTENTIAL, but...

I was SO expecting more than I got here. I was expecting something along the lines of Potager, but perhaps I was expecting too much. The wine we had was fine, nothing great, but the food, well, I could have done better, and that's not saying much. I ordered the pork loin and it was dry as the Mojave desert! Talk about over cooked! And our waiter was very laissez faire in his service. I would have had 2 more glasses of wine had he been just a wee bit more attentive. It's hard, but that's the waiters job, to walk the fine line between being an overzealous flair wearing Chili's waiter to being someone who watches your glass and makes sure you never are hunting him/her down. I know this place is supposed to be mellow, but come on! I DID like the music and the irreverent decor. That's novel for Denver, but all that can't make up for LAZY service, and bad food. I hope the waiters, cooks, and management periodically check into City Search to see how we they measure up so they can correct their mistakes. This place has lots of potential.
