I surprised my mother with an early birthday brunch. The atmosphere was beautiful with an ocean view. The people were so friendly and kind. Our server Chase and the manager Drew were the best! They made my mom's day even better, with their wonderful personalities. I ordered the crispy chicken wings and fries, and the seasoning they used was delicious. My mother ordered the breakfast burrito with tater tots, and the portion size was very filling and enough to save for later. Overall, it was such a great experience, and I will be back if in the area again.

Our visit to The Brant was amazing! The food was delicious and our waitress was even better! She kept our bottomless mimosas filled to the top! The only issue we had was finding the restaurant. GPS directions took us to the hotel next door. That being said, We couldn’t have asked for a better visit!

Incredible experience. We ate by Huntington Beach enjoying the sunset after a fun day at the ocean. Perfect way to extend your beach day by having an Oceanside view and a delectable meal. We had the Brant Burger with wagyu beef, the Cobb salad with filet mignon, and some incredible drinks. Highly recommend this spot if you’re in the area. Our kids loved the chicken fingers, the pretzel bites and obviously the view.

Happy hour with a great view combines delicious drinks, a relaxed vibe, and an inspiring backdrop, making it an ideal setting for unwinding after a long day or starting an evening out. Although the steak was not that great, their drinks were right on.

Update: I came here tonight for my anniversary dinner. The website and Google shows you guys close at 9 pm. At 7:50 pm-ish we arrived and the hostess said the restaurant was closing. I was surprised and she mentioned The Brant closes early on Sundays. She wouldn't seat us. Please update your website and hours to reflect current hours if you no longer close at 9 on Sundays. I still love you guys. Just bummed! We would have come earlier if we knew. I'm obsessed with this place! Arguably the best restaurant with the best views, best drinks, and best food in Pacific City! Thank you so much for always delivering such a wonderful experience.

SO impressed with The Brant. Absolutely beautiful decor, inside and outside patio seating, and seriously some of the most delicious drinks and dishes I’ve had. HIGHLY recommend the Strawberry Basil Mule, great flavor and actually fairly strong which was fantastic. We started with their take on chicken wings which was SO good - great sauces and crispiness/crunchiness. Then, we tried their brand new shortribs with pineapple risotto and I completely licked the plate clean! Ridiculously good. We got a Cobb salad to try as well and it was packed with ingredients — went really well with the meat. And do NOT come here without trying their signature butter cake! TOOOO good. Melt in your mouth and the perfect texture. We will be coming back here again to try brunch next!

Outstanding service and food. We had a pretzel board appetizer, I recommend it highly. I had a fantastic drink with pomegranate juice, honey and tequila. 5 stars well deserved.

Excellent in every way. Great food and great views of the Pacific Ocean! Highly recommended. Also it was great that the Salmon entre came with mash potatoes and grilled brussel sprouts.
