| - I gave Brix a solid 1 star for the location (it's near my house), lighting (it's not bright like Ritters or Eat N Park), and fireplace. It's a trendy place that will be closed within 6 months. The wine list is good....but so are the lists at about 50 other restaurants. I've eaten here 3 times and each time it was worse. The last time, I advised them to stop serving food and just be a bar. Here's my favorite part: The waiter had the audacity to debate w/ me! RULE #1: THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT. If I said my food sucked, it did. Period. The fish tacos were burned, the soup was runny, the mac & cheese was disgusting, and the pizza was more crust than actual pizza. If you want to be disrespected by a waiter, eat piss-poor food, and are not welcome anywhere else in town, you should go here! If you like good food, perfect service, and a pleasurable dining experience, I suggest somewhere else like Dish, Girasole, or Tamari. If you just feel the need to go to the NorthSide because you heard it's the hip place to go & you need to get out of the suburbs, go to the place right across the street - The Modern Cafe. It's not as fancy, but the drinks are good and the food is consistent. And the waitstaff doesn't pretend they're in New York or talk back.
