Shutters Brasserie - Brenwood

The food is still excellent. The atmosphere is still very classy. The service though??? Horrible!!! It's gone completely downhill. So, a few years ago this used to be one of me and my husband's favorite spots, but then covid happened, and we forgot about it for a while. So when we were planning on where to go for Valentine's Day we decided to revisit our old favorite...we are now regretting our choice. Omg...it is nothing like it used to be! There was literally one waiter (who was also playing bar tender) for the whole restaurant! Not even joking! One waiter! One!!! We came in at 6:30 and didn't get our check until 8:50. It was a half an hour wait just to put in our order! We were also kept waiting forever for our entrees, kept waiting another twenty+ minutes after that for our dessert, and after that it was an extremely long wait for the check. If this is how they're running things now I have no interest in ever coming back. It put a huge damper on our Valentine's Day date. From looking at a few other recent reviews, this wasn't an accidental staffing misshap either. This is just how the place operates now. If the owner can't afford to hire more staff, patrons should at least be warned when making a reservation. I made a reservation for Valentine's Day well in advance and wasn't warned that they were now operating on a skeleton crew, wich pisses me off. We spent over $200 for an extremely frustrating experience. Never again.

Scottie's is an outstanding place to celebrate a special event birthday, anniversary, holidays. The food is amazing and tasty; the atmosphere is relaxing; the service is topnotch with Scottie treating his guests like royalty. Try it!! You won't be disappointed

We just went to Scotties in Brentwood this last weekend for a birthday dinner. There were 4 of us and we all had a wonderful time. Scottie is a one of a kind. He runs the whole show all by himself. Not sure if there's kitchen help but he runs the whole dining room alone. The food was wonderful. The girls had duck confit. I had the cioppino and my buddy had the filet shrimp. They were all delicious. The atmosphere was very relaxing and very enjoyable with good friends and a pianist playing mood music in the background. If you just want to go eat quickly, this may not be the best place for you. This is more of a dining experience. Plan for at least a couple of hours for the whole evening. Ours was closer to 3 hours but we all walked out happy and full. It was so good we're trying to get on his New Years Eve dinner list.

Me and the Chikibaby thought it was coo, 100% reccomend.

We had a great evening celebrating our anniversary. Thank you!
