The Brinehouse

This place is GR8...definitely work a visit when in Safety Harbor Their Ultimate Brussels Sprouts are crazy good and packed with flavor!I had the Corned Beast which lived up to the name. Gotta note the fries are outrageously good! 5 Star +

I was invited to join my fellow foodie friend to a Spanish Wine Dinner at The Brinehouse in November. I've been on and off sick since Thanksgiving so this review is a bit late. In any case, my husband is from Spain and I've traveled throughout Spain on many occasions for the last 15 years or so (I would say at least 10 times minimum). Needless to say, I made a point to eat all the different dishes in several regions of Spain with many foodie tours.With that said, I was very excited for this Spanish inspired dinner. I don't really drink alcohol anymore as a personal choice and health reasons, but will have some wine on occasion. Though the dishes were not traditional Spanish dishes, I was very impressed with the execution of their Spanish inspired menu. The dishes were quite unique, the flavors blew me away, and the wine pairing was on point.Reception Course: Croquetas de CabralesFirst Course: Serrano Ham-Wrapped QuailSecond Course: BacalaThird Course: Duck PaellaFourth Course: Creme Catalina The croquetas were frankly the best I've ever had. The Serrano Ham-wrapped Quail and Bacalao were unique and tasty. The duck breast and chorizo in the paella were nice touches, as I've probably had every different variety of paella in Spain except this. I don't even think I've ever seen this as an option. The only issue I had with this dish is that there should be a larger rice ratio with paella dishes. This was packed with duck meat, when I little would have gone a long way. Don't get me wrong. The flavors were amazing! Just less meat and more rice, please. Finally, the Crema Catalin was the perfect end to a fantastic dinner. It was the perfect combination of light and not to sweet with fresh fruit.As mentioned earlier, their wine pairings were perfect and accented each dish. See photo for menu.I highly recommend wine dinners at The Brinehouse. I can't wait to return and try more of the chef's unique creations.

This is a cute place with lots to offer! The first time I went was for a trivia night and it was a blast! They had themed food and drinks for the occasion which was such a nice touch! We had such a good time that we keep coming back. Service is always great, everyone is so friendly and welcomes cyou in as soon as you walk through the door. The food is delicious, never any complaints. I highly recommend the poutine!! Everything is portioned well so you will either leave satisfied or with left overs.The drinks are very tasty as well, with lots of options and specials. They always have something new to try depending on the theme, season, or holiday, so you can never get bored with the menu!It's also very reasonably priced and worth the drive from Tampa!

We had another great meal at the Brinehouse last night. I'm glad we got there at 5:30 because the restaurant quickly filled up. I had the Gorgonzola Mac and cheese with my steak entree, and it was divine! Also found out they own the Smokehouse in Dunedin, my town, so I will definitely be checking that out too!!

Brinehouse is a very cute restaurant in the heart of Safety Harbor. The service was just right. The food was out of this world. I had the salmon quiche, grits, and fruit salad. We were celebrating our friend's birthday, so we got the raspberry bread pudding for a birthday treat... all very delicious!

Easily one of the top brunch spots on Main Street! Came here for a birthday event and loved the selection of breakfast favorites, creative cocktails and of course mimosas. I went with the indulgent biscuits and gravy. They were light, fluffy and moist in a creamy gravy that was sprinkled with cubes of pork belly. It came with a nice helping of eggs too. I think you'd certainly be able to split this with someone and get something sweet on the side. Everyone enjoyed their food and despite our large party it was fast and without any hiccups. We'll be back!

Food here way very good ! Stopped by at NYE. We haven't been in a while. The service was quick. We sat outside during a late Dec night. Haven't been here in a few years. The new menu upgrades are good. We love SH

Friday, 12/13/2024 - a spur of the moment decision turned out amazing. Tracy was our bartender and made perfect Old Fashions and suggested one I'd never had before made with a coffee liquor - yummy! The appetizers we had were SO good. Our favorite was the cauliflower. Will definitely go back when we're in the area!

Great food. Wonderful service. Definitely a must "Go to" if you're in or near Safety Harbor.

Great atmosphere inside, tight sidewalk dining. Google had it as a place for ribs, no ribs there. Ordered Big Brisket sandwich, not good, minimal brisket AND RUBBERY. Flatbread was good but not great. We sat at the bar, bartender Steve was excellent.
