Where so I even begin? Service - 2/5: the service alone really could make a person walk out of this place! Our server came a total of 3 times. 1) to take our order 2) take our drinks and 3) the bill! Idk how many times I asked for a heater but i know it never came! I watched tables around me get heaters but not my table. I even watched them turn on a heater only to get it ready for the next person who needed one. I asked a bus guy to get a heater and he said okay AGAIN and it AGAIN never came. This is awful considering we had our baby with us! I didn't have to ask for the check twice though. That came pretty quickly after the first time asking for it. Making this first Mother's Day celebration kick off a terrible one! Food - 1/5: I will say it's edible! The tuna poke was not fresh, the oysters were small, the spicy broccoli was flavorless, and the roasted chicken was mostly dry! The only thing this place has going for itself is truly truly the view! maybe if I ever come back I'll try something else but I don't see myself returning. This was just truly truly an awful restaurant. But if you want to come for a view just do drinks, I guess! I probably wouldn't come back for that either!!
Totally forgot one of our meals, brought it by when everyone finished. Service was subpar, took 30 mins to get drinks and they weren't busy. At least they gave a discount on bill but not a good experience.

Very friendly staff but clearly overworked and understaffed. Long waits. Insanely overpriced for what they offered for brunch. You're basically paying 3-4x more just for the view.

Saturday Brunch Bucket List!! This restaurant is a must stop and eat place along the SoCal Coast!! Take walking shoes and plan a day of walking along the lush picturesque landscape and beaches!

Our server was friendly at first but then he wasn't at our table and didn't check in with us for awhile / we had our son who was doing fine. But we felt forgotten about. I had asked for a 2nd round of drink for all of us and it took over 20 min. (Refills and a beer) he slightly felt bad that it took so long. But at that point I wanted the check to close out and head home due to our kid and sunset.
First time I had eaten here, despite having walked by it I don't know how many times! Amazingly Delicious with gorgeous views of the ocean. Yes it is a bit pricy, but totally worth it!

We had a 7pm reservation that I made roughly 2 months ago bc it was for a special occasion. The restaurant called to confirm my resi the day of. We had a patio table and bc it was cold (not raining)- they closed the patio. No one called to tell me. We showed up and were told that we had to wait until a table for 14 opened up... We waited for 90 minutes.  nobody comped anything, nobody was really that apologetic... I was very disappointed in the amount of phone calls/ text messages I got in advance to confirm the reservation, and then nothing to tell me there was this huge delay waiting for us. not great.
we had Cain as our waiter and oh man was he a hustler! he was fantastic at our family brunch this past saturday. he was an overall amazing waiter with great service and personality! we will be back !

My husband and I had the prix fixe brunch on the patio, overlooking the ocean. It was absolutely beautiful and the food was delicious! My only issue is that there was so much food that I felt wasteful leaving some of it - I was too full to finish it all! But that was honestly the only issue we had. It was a fantastic experience and our server even brought out a slice of cheesecake for my birthday.

Made reservation for outside lawn area for 8. When we got there they said the lawn area was not open during the week. Ended up inside which was a disappointment. Then it took a half hour to get glasses of water and then another half hour to get a drink. It was not busy and there were staff just standing around doing nothing. Ordered our food when we received our drinks. We were there a total of 2 1/2 hours and got our food the last 15 minutes. Food was good but the waitress was terrible. Would not go back.
Las Brisas is great! Food was delish and Gabriel is one of the best waiters I've ever had! He was friendly, built a rapport with us, and suggested his favorite dishes. Thank you Gabriel!

Wonderful (I've been going to Las Brisas for 30+ years - it has the best view in America) aside from two things: Though told about an avocado allergy meal for one diner came with avocado. They quickly replaced the dish. The second is the lack of valet. Parking on a Sunday afternoon is very sparse - had to park more than a half mile away.

Slow, slow, slow. If I hadn't asked the server to speed things up at the 2 hour mark we would still be sitting there 3 hours later. I had two kids 4/7 with us and at 2 hour mark we still didn't have our main food for brunch.
Food and service was amazing but the view is just beyond spectacular! Beautiful romantic atmosphere. The people there are just very accommodating and are truly nice people. We loved it and will recommend this restaurant to our friends and family. Can't wait to go back for breakfast since dinner was FABULOUS!

Compared to past visits, entree meals were less than exciting. Service seemed junior and our server couldn't open a wine bottle without 2 calls to her manager. We also finished our appetizers before the bar had our drinks ready. It was Saturday night, so it was busy, but isn't that every weekend?
