Browns Socialhouse - Okotoks

Met up with our adult child's for a week day dinner. Sat in the very nicely appointed patio WOW this has to be one of the nicest patio 's anywhere.The food is good to very good depending on what you order. It is a chain restaurant so the consistency can very from visit to visit depending on staffing, but they have a nice menu and nice decor.

The atmosphere is very nice. We chose to sit at the bar for our early evening meal. We were given menus and advised that it was Happy Hour and all appetizers would be $4.00 off during Happy Hour time. My husband and I looked at the menu and decided that we would share an order of nachos. The menu price is $18.95..$14.95 was more realistic for us. When our server brought us the tab an hour later, I questioned the $18.95 price for nachos when they are in the appetizer section.The server looked at our bill and said "Oh, I see that I forgot to give you Happy Hour prices on the wine as well." My husband had 2 bottles of beer. After her adjustment, our tab came down from approx $50 to approx $40.00. I should not have had to ask for that discount. The nachos were tasty enough but simply not enough cheese spread out to the perimeter of the plate. Cheese was dropped kind of Centre. Outside chips were dry and bare.

Great place to go eat the food was good and a varied menu. Indoor or outdoor seating available. Wait staff were very good.

We liked the place, simple as that. Quiet Monday with pizza on special and it was great. The other dish, the potato cod, was a small portion but delicious with its dash of sause. The salad that came with was unique enough and tasty enough with pickled ginger to get me to do this review!

Brown's Social House is a great place to eat, the setting is great, the staff are wonderful and the food is very good. My family used to go every Friday for fish tacos and drinks, but recently Brown's has switched to cod. We don't enjoy the cod nearly as much so we only go every couple of months now, sure would love to see the halibut back again for the fish tacos and the fish burger.
