This place rocks!! Paige at the bar or Dylan or Noelle serving, unbelievable and spectacular service! Love the pizza, Mac-n-Cheese, killer burgers; it's all goood! Awesome food choice! Way better than Copper Bull or The Creek by far!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Music is fantastic as well!![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Haven't been back since they fired Cindy. Won't go back. She was the best server we have ever seen. Made up for the fact that the owner hadn't spent one dime in the place in years. read more

Outstanding service and the best food around. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant was cleaner when asking if something changed was told new owner same food with some upgrades.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Chicken Philly is the best read more

Went for the first time based on the amazing reviews and we were very let down. It was half full on a Monday night. Service was very slow and not attentive. Wife and I ordered the burger as a safe bet for a restaurant and both got medium-well. Her burger came out with a cool rare center and mine closer to well. Had to track down the server through another person as she disappeared. She then acted like it was our problem it wasn't cooked even close to the right temp and said they could heat it more but already had ketchup/mustard and toppings in it. She then took the plate and asked if we wanted to keep the fries but no plate or place to put them. Maybe she wanted to drop them on the table? She then came back and told us it would be 15-20 minutes as they had some other orders. Meanwhile kids and I had our food. She then came back 20 Min later with a charcoal briquette (burger) and left. There was no apology, concern, care, or any compensation to wait for their issue. The burger was underseasoned and bland anyway. Fries were good, kids "frozen low quality Mac and cheese" (yes her words but my kids didn't understand and wanted Mac anyway) was edible. Won't be going back. read more

Horrible service. We arrived at 0820 with a party of 9 7 adults and 2 kids. Yelp shows the restaurant is open until 1000pm. However, the waitress stopped us at the door and declined us service stating they closed at 9. We shared that Yelp showed closed at 1000. The girl said "I don't know, they just told me to tell you that. I just started here". We all sat outside looking for somewhere else to go and while we were there they sat three other parties (a couple, a foursome, and a party of three). It appeared they were just being lazy and refusing us service. Too bad, they lost a customer for life and profit from our party. Poor service! read more

We finished a hike and wanted to go to a dive type bar for some snacks and a few drinks. The fried zucchini and onion rings were perfect for what we were looking for. I was disappointed to see that there wasn't much in the way of beer other than your common Bud, Bud Lite, Coors kind of things. As for cocktails, there wasn't no "drink menu" to be found so if you knew what you wanted to drink you were fine but if you were looking to try something new you were basically out of luck. Walking in, there wasn't a sign that said wait to be seated but then we were told to sit wherever we liked. That was fine except I'm not sure the person who told us that even worked there ‍. Not long after we sat in the miniature bar area the bartender came over to get our drink order. We made it halfway through our drinks before they came back to see if we wanted food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Don't get me wrong, it was a clean and quiet setting for a bar and other than lack of drink menu and not taking our food order earlier it was a nice place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Great burgers fries as ordered. I love mine crispy. They gave me crispy. Loved them. Salads are also good.

At Brisam's, the "Food is Excellent" and I have been going to this restaurant for many years with my wife, children, and friends. One suggestion.... it's always nice to occasionally see some new food dishes on the menu. The "Service has been Fantastic" with Paige, Kevin, Issac, and the other service people. However, my wife and I sure miss our "longtime excellent waitress" Cindy, since her departure from employment at Brisam's. We have now reduced our visits to Brisam's from 2x to 1x per week. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The "Ambiance is Very Pleasant, along with the small friendly bar, excellent bartenders, and the great cooking staff.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] With that said, we still feel this is one of the #1*Best Restaurants in the Cave Creek area! read more

I've been here multiple times and the food is always good. The zucchini is really good.

The food was good, the waitstaff was ok. Here's the rub. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere is unremarkable.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]For this area, near Cave Creek, there's much better choices for atmosphere[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Its a boring diner with a few tables and low back booths.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Excellent food, chill service, inviting atmosphere.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Went with a family member and we both finished all of our entrees. read more

We were greeted right away with a smile & we sat at a big booth which was very comfortable. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Right away walking in you notice the smell of Fabulosa which was overwhelming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was top notch. Friendly, efficient, looked you in the eye and took our drink and food orders by memory. There seemed to be a bartender and 2 servers taking care of the entire place which was quite busy so that was impressive because they did a great job. The meatball appetizer was very good as was the Mexican pizza~ tons of flavor! The fish & chips on Fridays is a must try. The maybe comes in because it's a grill & bar but the menu suggests it's more than that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The hard rock music is a bit much trying to have conversation ~ and we enjoy hard rock on occasion.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's almost like it's 2 restaurants trying to figure out where to settle in the middle.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Glad we tried it, not sure if we'll come back. read more

Bloody Mary, wonderful. 1/2 order nachos, cheese congealed & cold. Very large portion w/lots of ingredients. Mentioned issue to server, answer "oh". Chips underneath good. Had add'l order to go w/slaw. Food good but no utensils or napkins. Said I had to ask, didn't know that. I guess I wasn't prepared enough to eat there. read more

A local eatery that does not have the baseball package, so you can watch the Dodgers, but not the Diamondbacks service and food is always solid. read more

Another hidden gem in our neighborhood. Isaac and Cindy are always so nice and friendly, but the best part is their stellar service. They truly care about making their customers feel welcome and ensuring customers enjoy the food & drinks! Hats off to the kitchen!! Such a variety of food choices on the menu and so far I've liked everything I've tried! Our favorites are the Philly cheesesteak sandwich and the Greek salad! The restaurant is intimate...family friendly...outside patio but unfortunately it is a Smoking patio...and a nice bar (although we wish it was bigger). Definitely give it whirl if you happen to be in the area. read more

A must try for their chicken or philly cheesesteak! Great service, great food. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Very chill environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will definitely be back! read more

I'd say nice staff and vibe, I don't usually leave reviews but I feel I should at least mention this so maybe it can be improved. I got the Jumbalaya (this was my first time ever having jambalaya) which was amazing, the garlic bread that came with it really complimented the flavor, no complaints about that. My partner got the pizza (Brisams Pizza I think it was called), that wasn't that great, now the toppings were fine it was the crust that ruined it, unfortunately I feel the crust was way too thin, the sauce or something just soaked it making the slices soggy and fall apart. I think the pizza would be amazing with just a thicker crust. Great place overall though would definitely try again another time! :) read more

Great service and nice menu. I had the spicy chicken sandwich and it was very fresh bread and a delicious sandwich. My husband had the jambalaya which was a nice size portion, very tasty but definitely a bit spicy/hot. We will go again and do recommend for a casual spot for lunch or dinner. read more

Definitely an off night at Brisams, which was unfortunate! It was about 7 PM on a Sunday night and we were sat at a high top so we could watch football. The special on this particular night was 2 pork chops with a baked potato and vegetable . Both My Son and I ordered the pork chops at $18. What came to our table was a thin cut bone in piece of leather. Literally not sure how they could call it a pork chop to begin with. They were so overcooked that they were curled up. Our waitress/ bartender didn't come over till the very end and asked me if I wanted a box. I told her the pork chops were awful and inedible and she literally looked me in the face and said OK. Turned around and She Got our check didn't apologize or anything. Luckily, the baked potato was decent, as we were starving! I'm kicking myself for not taking a photo. We've dined in several times and this experience definitely left a sour taste in my mouth. read more

Wow! Does this place suck, now! Used to be a reliable lunch spot for a beer and a sandwich. Seems like all the old staff left, and it really shows now! Waited 23 minutes for someone to even acknowledge us, and another 30 minutes for drinks. The food finally came out, fries were cold, buns were burnt, and the service was un exceptional....we won't be back anytime soon. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Too bad, this spot used to be good....I hope they can survive on the 8 bar flys in the bar...nothing else is as it was here... too bad.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

My wife Lynn and I are frequent customers. Never ever had bad service or less than delicious food! The owner Steve knows how to hire the best. read more

They fired Cindy, the best server ever and worked at Brisams for years! We won't go back, what a shame but the good news is she is working at another place in Carefree!! read more

Always the best. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food and neighborhood ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] If we lived closer we would visit weekly

I met an old coworker here today for lunch and the service and food were wonderful. The waitress clearly loves the company she works for and enjoys her job. Food was great too. I'll be back! read more

Staff was friendly and prompt, but the food was mediocre at best. Not a bad place, but don't expect great food.

Could not be a more welcoming place! So very friendly and accommodating. Some very good food selections and check the board for daily specials. You won't be disappointed. read more

Nice local restaurant and bar. Great friendly staff. Good burgers. Spicy chicken sandwich is excellent

Don't know why we took so long to try this place out... but wow - becoming one of our regular stops. Place is always busy - not too busy - but the kind of busy that tells you people love it and the food is fresh and consistent. The only server we've ever had here is a long time employee - she is the most friendly and efficient server I've ever seen. We can go weeks without stopping by and she remembers us and our preferences! We especially love the Creole Shrimp appetizer. O MY! yummy and such great sauce to dip your garlic bread in. We even took the left over sauce home and made a delish Creole Shrimp main the next day with the sauce as the base. Fantastic! I'm salivating thinking of what I'll order next when we go! read more
