Brick’s Downtown Bar & Grill

Nice wait staff, cute environment, average food. I expected better for the burger when that is there thing, perhaps the bun is outstanding and helps the cause. Salad was OK and probably would have had a better reaction if the waitress didn't tell me that the salad was outstanding. When I hear outstanding, I would have expected better but it wasn't bad. All and all, ok, prob wouldn't be back though.

Came in for a cocktail during the summer. Bartender was great. Nice open feel to the restaurant. Tried a bowl of chili. It was spicy and had good flavor. Ordered the maple bourbon old fashioned and it was excellent. Would get that again. My husband loves a good summer cocktail and ordered two: raspberry mojito and hibiscus Collins. He didn't like either. Mojito didn't taste like anything really and the Collins was just ok! Would come again to try some food. And get another old fashioned.

Our flatbread meals were great!I was so excited to learn their gf flatbread was soy free!!! It was also very delicious. My husband had the original flatbread with chicken and enjoyed it. He didn't need the generous amount of chicken provided though. We would have appreciated the staff refilling our water - it wasn't that busy and it was a hot day!I would return for the yummy gf flatbread.

The ambiance was as very nice and had no problem getting a table for a group of eight. The service was very good, attentive, and very friendly. The food was tasty and done to request. The menu is burgers, flatbread and sandwiches mainly with sides and salads to offer as well. Had a nice time meeting family.

Yikes on every level. Atmosphere: Really loud and the bathroom was not clean. Food: Not good....the falafel was dry and mushy at the same time? The brussel sprouts were so overcooked they disintegrated when they hit your tongue. Service: Awful. Had to get our own waters and silverware, waitress was beyond rude. Our table wasn't done eating and she came over and said "do you want the bill"? Didn't ask if we needed a refill on drinks or water or if we wanted dessert. I always leave a tip (and a good one at that) but I was beyond tempted not to....So many better places to eat in Manitowoc than here. They need to turn things around.

Love this place! But as a Canadian I don't always get the satisfaction of ordering a bestoke burger and at the least rare!! But these are amazing burgers! I go out of my way to enjoy! So you enjoy!Again I drove up from the City MKE to have my favorite bespoke burger. I get it, it's off season, but you had locals you have staff, you have product. What you don't have was consistency. I made aEffort to eat your food like you deserved a M Star or something!! You disappointed me. Do your job! Do your best! Always!!!

We have wanted to visit Brix for several months; when friends from Michigan came to visit us this weekend we drove to Manitowoc to try the lunch fare. As soon as we entered we were greeted by a very friendly bartender Shannon who warmly welcomed us to Brix with a great smile. We were impressed with the ambiance--a relaxed, friendly vibe. Our server Amelia arrived right away and took an order for cocktails and the bacon wrapped cheese curd appetizer (not gonna lie--it was so delicious with the sauce that we ordered another one after taking 2 bites!) For entrees we selected a Patty Melt (our gal loves a cheeseburger), the Meatzza flatbread, the Steak Bomb(succulent/juicy but beware if you are afraid of jalapeño peppers), and the Brix & Mortar burger (sooo tasty with the Bourbon cheese sauce and onions). Service was excellent, and the food arrived piping hot. Amelia kept us happy with the water glasses filled, the cocktails refreshed, and checking on how we were enjoying our meals. The food portions were spot on--two of us needed take away boxes because our appetites were not equal to our desires.‍. This was an excellent dining adventure. The environment was the perfect blend of fun and the background music was not loud (Shannon even asked if it was too loud for our tastes; I think we were laughing at times so our boisterous table was probably at the right noise level).After dinner, Jackie the owner stopped at our table to ask if everything was to our satisfaction. We gushed about the service, the food, the ambiance--and we promised her to come back for another fun meal. We dine at lots of restaurants from Appleton to Manitowoc, Milwaukee to Green Bay --and Brix is now in the top rotation for us!

First time trying this place with some friends. We were seated shortly after arriving. We were told that the kitchen orders were running a little long, no problem with us we were catching up with friends. Apps came out quickly and were very good. We all had burgers and everyone enjoyed them. Dining area was comfortable and cool looking. One of the rounds of drinks took a little while, but everything else was great.

First things first... $2.50 for a hand muddled Old Fashioned? (Everyday) Great deal! And they are actually very good! I had to laugh that according to the menu a soda is also $2.50... might as well add the booze! I tried the Wisconsinite Burger and it was pretty darn good except one thing. It was way under done. I ordered Medium Well and it came out very much Medium Rare. Because it was pretty busy I decided not to send it back, and a powered through! Actually it had a lot of flavor and (besides the cooking) was a pretty good burger. Great bun too. Fries were average. This was my first time at Brix and I was happy with the service and wow clean and fresh the place looked. They obviously put a lot of work into the place and I will definitely be back.

The quality of food was outstanding....this isn't "bar food", it's much better! Service was amazing...don't miss having an old Fashion, they are awesome!The bar itself is fantastic, very clean and looks new - great ambiance!Highly recommend stopping in....will definitely come here again
