This was my favorite restaurant for many reasons. Great location on the Amelia river to watch boats. My shrimp salad was the best meal I had on the island. Fantastic combo of greens, celery, shrimp, blue cheese, & cilantro vinegarette. Service was great.

My husband and I stopped in here for lunch today while on Amelia Island. We sat outside and got to enjoy the boat traffic on the water. Our waitress, Logan, was very nice and attentive, filling our water glasses as needed. Our lunch came very quickly and we both ate almost everything despite the large portions b/c it was so... More

Three of us came for an early dinner before a party later in the evening. The location, on the river, is quite nice and the restaurant building is very attractive. We were seated in a not-so-lovely part of the restaurant but service was adequate. The I had the beef with boursin and my wife had the low country boil. Our... More

We sat outside on the deck and were able to bring our dogs with us. The weather and view were just gorgeous. We had a delicious lunch with excellent service. Would definitely return on our next visit.

We decided to have lunch at Brett's since we could sit outside right by the water. The weather was great for eating out. I had a wonderful salad special and my wife had shrimp and grits. Both were so tasty! The service was friendly and punctual, and eating by the water is so peaceful.

I have eaten at Brett's twice in three months time. The food is outstanding, the service and atmosphere is great. The view at sunset is so awesome. I would recommend that you come to Brett's with an open mind, order what you like and enjoy the slow pace and enjoy your meal. The deserts are fantastic and filling! Keep in... More

Can not say enough about Brett's! The food was delicious, the service was wonderful and Brett himself was a treasure. He made sure that we had a very special anniversary dinner. Go!!!

Great place to watch the marina activity at the end of the main shopping district of Fernandina Beach. Traditional food at fair prices; something on the menu for everyone.

Right on the water with a great view from the deck. Varied menu that included approx 10 special on a Sunday lunchtime. Very quick and polite. Children made to feel welcome and the small childrens menu has all the usuals.

Nothing special about the food, and the service was slow despite a small crowd. The fried shrimp was not nearly as good as the Crab Trap's. The asparagus was good. Good location if you're staying in the historic district.
