Browns Social House - Saanich

Love this place it is a happening place right in the core or the new Uptown Shopping Centre which makes me feel like I'm not even at home. With a well setup all weather exterior patio you can always eat alfresco. The staff is great only to be outdone by the food, for breakfast, lunch or an after work refreshment with your colleagues it's always good. It has lots to choose from and all fresh good quality, so far haven't found anything I haven't enjoyed. Have to try it for dinner. Cheers.

Great location and wonderful patio area. Service was great the sever was very attentive and took great care of us. Lots of menu choices. The food was wonderful.

You can always find food items that are somewhat healthy in Brown's menu. My tuna bowl was delicious with the seared tuna and the almond rice was flavourful. I did have room for dessert at the end, though, and shared the chocolate brownie. As suggested by the menu, the brownie is definitely something that can be shared as it was too much for one. It was a nice balance between cold ice cream and warm cake.

(January 2017) went with a group and we sat on the enclosed patio, which is really nice- gives you the feeling like you are outside without being exposed to the elements, and there are blankets if you're really cold. I had the dragon bowl this time and it was good tasting but something i could likely make at home. Almost $20 with tax and tip. I had water. Pretty steep for lunch but all the meals are inching up these days. (4.0)<br/ <br/ (December 2016) This is a very busy location, and has a nice patio in summer that is enclosed for winter. Great for groups, small groups, and pairs. My friend like the social aspect and the happy hour specials. I have tried to find value in the meals but it is an upscale restaurant (expensive) with portions sized for one meal only. Last time I had the halibut tacos and had the cabbage put on the side (see photo). My friend raves about the #28 dragon bowl so I will try that next time. Tightly clustered tables and friendly staff. A good place to go if you have time to spend there-and be social. (3.5)

It is my second time at this Restaurant. The atmosphere is nice, and the team here is always nice and kind. The food was ok, we order steak, and pasta Alfredo. The steak was ok, a little bit overcoked, and the pasta was regular. We love the fries!
