Brine

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brine was the absolute perfect birthday lunch spot while I was visiting Jacksonville! My bestie picked it and it could not have been more fabulous. We started with the caviar service (sturgeon) and it was stunning. We asked for the accompaniments to be deconstructed, and they happily accommodated — jelled egg yolk, crème fraîche, chives, and crispy house-made French fries. It felt elevated but still fun and approachable. For my entrée, I had the salmon and farro salad with pickled white asparagus — fresh, bright, and beautifully balanced. My friends ordered the shrimp BLT and the lobster roll, and both were raving the entire time. We finished with the cheesecake bread pudding for dessert and it was a 10/10 indulgent moment. We had the pleasure of meeting Julie, the owner, an

Cute and intimate spot. We started with a dozen mixed oysters, caviar fries and added Osetra. Wine was 1/2 off and the bottle of blanc de blanc was an excellent choice. My husband had the scallop lamb gnocchi and I had lobster cannelloni. Everything was delicious. The crème brûlée was one of the best I’ve ever had. Our server Anna was sweet and knowledgeable. We will be back.

While passing through Jacksonville, we decided to find a seafood restaurant, and Brine came up. What a discovery. From the moment we walked in, we found a small, cozy place with some of the best-trained and most attentive staff I’ve encountered in a long time. Everything was spectacular. The food was outstanding, the presentation was absolutely top-notch, and the service was impeccable from start to finish. This was, by far, one of the best culinary experiences I’ve had. It truly felt like a Michelin-level experience—refined, thoughtful, and perfectly executed. Bravo to the ownership for clearly investing time and care into both the food and staff training. Highly, highly recommend everyone to try this place. Absolutely perfect.

I really debated what score to put here. I made a reservation for myself and my brother for the tasting menu. It was both of our first experiences and we were very excited to try it all! Definitely more money than I’ve ever spent on one dining night but I was with it. When making the reservation it had a small pre visit questionnaire that I was happy to fill out. It asked about celebrations, food specific needs, or accommodation needs. I explained we were there to celebrate my promotion and I added that I have very wide hips and would prefer a chair with no arms as they can be very uncomfortable for me. 2 days later we show up for our res and there’s two armed chairs. I literally cannot even fit in it. I’m partially blocking the entrance to the kitchen. My seat is kicked multiple times bec

I can’t stop thinking about how special this dining experience was, every detail felt so well thought out, and the entire night was truly amazing from start to finish. We ordered the Surf and Turf for two, and let me tell you ..1000/10. The short rib was tender, flavorful, and absolutely delightful, but that LOBSTER GRATIN… words haven’t even been invented to do it justice. Truly a masterpiece. And the drinks? Perfect. Our server made the best recommendations, so good that I ended up having two! I’m honestly kicking myself for waiting this long to write this review because I’ve forgotten her name, but she was phenomenal. Her warmth and attentiveness made the night even more memorable. My husband and I are already planning to come back to try the tasting menu because we can’t wait to expe
