We enjoyed the Thanksgiving buffet here this year. It was our first time at Brickmans, so we took a chance but we are glad we did. Everything was delicious and more gourmet than we expected from a buffet. The menu had something for everyone. The only thing was that they didn't cook whole turkey, but overall, we were pleasantly surprised by the delicious food.
Lively ambiance inside and outdoor. Well decorated for the holiday season. The servers were friendly and courteous although the service was a bit slow I guess due to the busy Turkey day. We used Orfila Winery membership for a glass of wine, that was a plus. Overall it was a well-run buffet event, and we loved the experience. We will definitely be back to try their regular menu.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Jewel B.Chula Vista, CA02228Dec 10, 2024
We bought tickets for the Lakehouse San Marcos Winter Wonderland so we wanted to go early and decided to try this restaurant for the first time . We were very excited for the Winter Wonderland we were feeling very festive and we were looking forward to dining here . We were seated right away outdoors overlooking the golf course . We were given menus , took over 20 minutes to get our order . I wanted to order a cocktail , received the wine and beer menu . I was told they don't have a cocktail menu but can make anything . I ordered a mai tai but later was told they don't have ingredients which is fine I ordered another cocktail instead . The waitress Becki was very unwelcoming and unfriendly . I felt very uncomfortable. I was close to leaving but my husband said we should just eat here since we were here already . I was feeling happy and festive and this was just a very unpleasant and unexpected experience . She took our orders . I ordered the Birria tacos , they give 3 tacos large portion but it was very salty . I ate 1 1/2 , I did not take home the rest since I will
Not eat it
My husband ordered the dirty burger and his burger was ok . My husband had to flag someone down to get a refill of his beverage twice . No refills offered until he asked . I did not get asked if I wanted another drink and Becki offered a box instead For leftovers . She was in a hurry to get us out of there . Dining here was very disappointing with the way we were treated by Becki. As much as I go out to eat I am lucky it's rare that I experience this type of service . We are not going back . The way you treat your customers you probably don't need the business . We wish we would have eaten at the other restaurant close to the resort instead of going here .Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Nov 24, 20242 check-ins
Great food, fun sports bar (but also very family-friendly) atmosphere, and cheerful service. I love this place!
While searching for a place to eat out on thanksgiving, I happened upon Brickmans. I've never eaten there so decided to give them a try last night (11/23/24).
We were greeted immediately upon entering, but they were super busy so we had to wait a moment to be seated. Once at our table our server, Tyler, was right there pouring waters and taking our beverage orders.
They have a nice beer and wine list of mostly local places, so bonus points for that! For food we ordered the roasted 1/2 chicken, and the fish & chips. Both plates were super nice, delicious, and well prepared.
A side note: some of their menu items are a little over-the-top. For example They have a half dozen burgers, but they're all "gourmet type" offerings with blue cheese, and onion jams and special sauces. A regular double cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, and red onions would have been nice, but that's just one lady's opinion.
Our lovely server ended up also taking care of two large parties sat next to us ( a 10 and 14 top), so she got a little bogged down by them: which is lack of planning by management and not her fault. So we did have to wait a while to pay our check, but we had no place else to be so it wasn't a problem.
I can't believe that we've never come here for dinner until now, though. I got home and was very glad to make a reservation for their Turkey Day Buffet.
I'm sure the hubby and I will be back for dinner again, and often!Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Dec 20, 2024
The food is delicious! Calamari was the best we've ever had from anywhere. The salsa that came with the chips and guacamole was surprisingly delicious. I had the farmer's delight burger and hubby had the dirty double burger. Both were so filling. I also had the yippee ki yay mother f****r! And it did not disappoint!
Service was friendly. Everyone was very attentive. Since it's the Christmas season everything is decorated so nicely!Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Jan 4, 2025
Brickmans gets a thumbs up in my book. As a designer I really appreciated the ambiance and incredible holiday decor. The service was perfect and the food was truly tasty all around. I liked the potato skins, fish and chips, crab cakes. Surprisingly the pretzel was astounding though, and my unexpected favorite. Everyone liked their drinks as well and we enjoyed watching people practice their golf swings. I would be happy to go back again. Especially when you can top off your meal with a lovely stroll by lake afterwards

Checked it out for Christmas decoration. Love the vibes it might be the only one in the area. I will for sure come back again for the main resturant that has golf view . Plenty of parking.

Brickmans was recently added as a pickup location by our local wine club so we chose to make a stop to grab our most recent allotment.
Nestled within the San Marcos Lakehouse Golf course, the venue was clean and nicely appointed. The staff was inviting and cordial, but had limited knowledge of our wine club offerings.
We had some burgers for dinner and enjoyed a nice view of the grounds during the sunset. Overall, the visit was very pleasant and we'll likely return.Helpful 2Thanks 1Love this 0Oh no 0 - Nov 23, 2024Updated review
Brickmans Restaurant has truly become one of my favorite spots to dine. Recently, I had the pleasure of celebrating a colleague over lunch there. We enjoyed a variety of dishes, including the Fish and Chips, Dirty Double Burger, Truffle it Up, and Braised Beef Short Ribs.
As for me, I couldn't resist ordering one of my favorite salads--the Beet and Goat Cheese! For the main course, I went with the Short Ribs, and they did not disappoint. The dish was served with creamy mashed potatoes with some beets and asparagus. The meat was incredibly tender, and the flavors were perfectly balanced.
One thing I love about Brickmans is the generous portions. Everything we ordered was filling and satisfying. To top it off, the weather was perfect for outdoor dining, making the experience all the moreHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Nov 3, 2024Previous reviewSince Lakehouse bought Orfila Winery, a few friends and I went to Brickman's. My friend was able to use her Orfila Winery membership to order our wines. We all enjoyed the beautiful scenery, wine, delicious appetizers (calamari, hummus, French fries) and excellent service!!
We initially went there for the live music, but the live music experience more like a background music. We plan to return and check out other artists scheduled to perform at Brickman's to see who we enjoy.Oct 21, 2024Previous reviewFound out about this place about two months ago. This place is one of my favorite places to go and meet with friends or bring friends. The ambiance is very relaxing. We enjoy eating outside. There's a fire pit or heater when it's cooler/colder outside. The food is delicious! One of my favorites is the beet salad with chicken. The service is always friendly and welcoming!
They have tvs too if you want to watch the game. All in all, an excellent place to fine!! - Jennifer Y.Los Angeles, CAJan 12, 2025
Ordered room service at the lake house hotel over an hour and a half ago. All I simply ordered was hummus and chips and guacamole and an iced tea. Nobody bothered to call or cancel the order and nobody arrived. Absolutely starving and it's close to dinner time so I'm just going to cancel.

I came again to try the normal menu and really enjoyed it. During the Christmas season, a portion of the restaurant was decked out in holiday decor. It was festive enough to double as a Christmas pop-up bar. The vibes were immaculate, and every single employee I've encountered here has been so sweet. The entrees were delicious and really fairly priced.

Super easy to book, and while they were very busy, everyone was very kind, and all our needs were attended to. The buffet had all the expected menu items, plus more fun stuff, and bonus points for having a few child-height buffet servers filled with chicken strips and fries.
