Brophy Bros. - Santa Barbara

I keep returning for the friendly bartenders, breathtaking views, and delicious shrimp cocktails! It's also very reasonably priced. We tried the cold plate, which was good, but the cocktail really stole the show. The clam chowder was fantastic, and the Mai Tai was excellent as well! I really enjoyed this place, and the bartenders definitely enhanced the experience. The oysters were like a kiss of perfection!

I would definitely make a reservation for this place. We went on Monday and it was pretty packed. The staff is really friendly. We sat at the bar, but our server/bartender was phenomenal. I wish I remember his name, but he was an older gentleman and had a mustache and maybe a beard, worked up. We ordered the sesame bounced Ahi tuna and the local lake bass, both were excellent. You can also hit the view!

Amazing views of the marina and Santa Barbara coastline paired with delicious bites and drinks makes for a great dining experience. I tried the clam chowder and swordfish and it was all delicious. However, I was especially impressed by the savory fish and chips. Everything was fresh and flavorful and the portion sizes were very generous.

My wife and I stopped by here after our Sunset Cruise tour around Santa Barbara. When we checked in, they said the wait was going to be around 30 minutes so we put our name down along with our phone number. They use Yelp waitlist to show you who's ahead of you. We got seated after like 30 minutes and got seated inside. The customer service we received here was amazing. They started off by giving us bread and then my wife ordered her Clam Chowder which was delicious. For our entrée, my wife went with their Shrimp Scampi and I went with their New York steak at medium rare with fries. I loved my steak, it was perfectly cooked to medium rare and had good seasoning. My wife loved her Shrimp Scampi as well because they give jumbo shrimp with the dish.

Great dinner experience. We had the Seabass and Salmon along with cups of clam chowder and fresh bread. Went during peak hours and only had to wait half an hour or so. Very good food and service!
