How can I put into words the incredible dinner my husband and I shared at Brenner Pass?!

Food was a 3.5/5. The shrimp cavetelli was SO salty and the sauce was not good at all. We really liked the anchovy toast and ribeye was delicious. There’s easy parking and service was great.

If Metzgers was Brittney Anderson on Bobby Flay Triple Threat, then Brenner Pass is her going out in the first episode of Top Chef. We loved the food at Metzgers, but was truly disappointed by our experience at Brenners Pass. The restaurant was so loud we could not hear each other talk and the design was very cold. The appetizers were pretty good and maybe the highlight of the meal but the tuna we had could’ve been totally left out of the dish because the veggies were so good and the sauce was so incredible, my friend had the pork belly and it was so fatty and had no flavor that he sent it back. My friend, the birthday girl loved her trout. It was very very tasty. I had the chicken masala and it was just OK. It was not the juiciest piece of chicken or the tastiest sauce. My boyfriend really enjoyed his cavatelli. Another friend got the trout as well and there’s was raw in the middle. Not like it was a rare piece of fish, but it’s just completely raw.We saw a lot of people getting the hamburger and we kind a wish we had as well. The cocktails were interesting and overall pretty tasty, but we will not be returning.

Went here recently for a date night. I had to make reservations with my credit card and there was a $20/person fee for not showing or cancelling outside of the approved time frame. Needless to say, my expectations were high. Fortunately, Brenner’s Pass came through.

We haven’t even left and I had to do this review. We have had the greatest time tonight…from the sweet hostess, to our server Katie, who was fabulous! Amazing cocktails, spectacular food. Started with 6 Matheson oysters and a charcuterie, then the micro green salad, we then split the rib eye and whole fish, which was snapper tonight. Everything was fantastic! We finished with coffee and the pot de crème, to die for.

Presentation and service are nice but for the price and choices, I would pass. Luckily this was on a friend’s dime. Their palate paid a lot for my chicken, and their small chop.

We had such an amazing meal! The steak tartare and chard cabbage were extremely delicious. We would particularly recommend the cabbage! For mains we had the pork chop and ribeye. Both were delicious but the pork chop was a step above any recent main my wife and I have recently tried. A true melt in your mouth experience. Delicious drinks, and not a single thing to complain about!!

For what we paid I was expecting better food and all of the buzz. Perhaps it was the dishes we ordered. The gnocchi was good but my fish was incredibly overly salted and it was a tiny piece of fish atop a roasted onion in broth. That was it. I don’t need heaping portions, but I honestly wonder if something was missing from the plate. My husband’s burger and fries was okay he says but he didn’t think it was amazing. Service was nice and we enjoyed our cocktails and wine. Just don’t think we’ll be back by our own choice. I’ve had better dining experiences at this price point.

Overall, the experience at Brenner Pass was stellar. The staff was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable and they were wonderful at recommending dishes. The interior was gorgeous and modern (especially the bar) with earth tones, greys, and light wood. It’s also very spacious inside so at no point do you feel cramped or uncomfortable. The cocktails we ordered were the Coy Mistress, Wasenhorn: From Ashes and Some Kind of Wonderful. The Some Kind of Wonderful cocktail was the star of the show for me because the clarified milk punch felt like drinking velvet and tasted almost like the best lemon bar you’ve ever had with a hint of dill. For dinner we had the focaccia, fried oysters, tartiflette, asparagus risotto and nettle agnolotti. Everything was pretty much mind blowing but I will say we were both slightly let down by the risotto. I think the flavor was supposed to be quite delicate and subtle, but the contrast against the other dishes which were jam packed with flavor made it seem a bit underwhelming but still very good! The tartiflette made me think of childhood, as well as the urge to go camping and do some cast iron cooking over a fire, basically it was the best cheesy potato gratin I’ve ever had. The fried oysters were perfection, especially the base of roasted onion aioli. We wanted to fit in some dessert but just didn’t have any room left. I can’t wait to visit Brenner Pass again and I look forward to their seasonal menu changes.
