| About: | A San Diego tradition since 1969, the Brigantine has received many accolades in our 40+ year history. "BEST SEAFOOD", "BEST CASUAL SEAFOOD", "BEST HAPPY HOUR", and even "BEST SWORDFISH IN THE WORLD", according to USA Today. Well-known for our signature Clam Chowder, Grilled Swordfish, and Creme Brulee, the Brigantine is a favorite among locals for consistently fresh seafood, succulent steaks and grilled meats. Perched between the spectacular Pacific Ocean and the hills of Rancho Santa Fe, the Del Mar Brigantine sits high above the action of the Del Mar racetrack. A lushly landscaped garden offers an unparalleled setting for weddings and outdoor-themed events. Indoors, a formal dining room looks out to the garden through floor-to-ceiling french doors. For more casual dining, the glass-enclosed deck is a year-round favorite. The Del Mar Brigantine serves dinner 7 nights a week, lunch Monday-Saturday, and brunch each Sunday. Join us for our signature Happy Hour. |

FANTASTIC place to meet for business or pleasure, beautiful garden area. The oysters are fresh and delicious.
The Brig as we call it is the place to go for fish tacos. Living here for 35 years I have tried most all available tacos throughout San Diego and LA and The Brig takes the gold medal. Do yourself a favor and order the fish taco platter which comes with 2 tacos and a pile of their homemade potato chips. The best and only 9 bucks! Also their appetizer menu needs an item that sucks because everything is wonderful. Pasta Del Mar.... mmmmmmmmm Treat yourself or better yet, take a date and sit out on the deck overlooking the racetrack and have a cold one with your tacos.
Brig fish tacos: I have to be honest and admit that I've pretty much only had the brig fish tacos but their just so good I can't bring myself to order anything else! I've had the soup which is good and the ceasar salad which I wouldn't recommend. It's a great place with a great view.
