The service at Brennan’s was top tier, no question about it. The food was good and beautifully served. We are probably old and spoiled by our favorite restaurants in San Francisco so we have to say we’ve had better food, but it’s also about our favorites. We had a lovely meal, served by a charming wait staff and we enjoyed it immensely.

Next time I will request a table in the dock. I wish I could remember our waiters name so that I could request him again because he was amazing very attentive and very knowledgeable about the menu. We went last night and I’ve already suggested Palmetos to two other couples. Definitely worth the 90 minute drive
