First time in and was not disappointed. Friendly staff, fast service and great ambiance. Another thing i look for is the cleanliness. They have an open concept which makes it easy to see how clean the bar and kitchen is. Very impressed with the quality of food. I got the chciken French onion dip sandwich and gouda grits, hit the spot and was very filling. I will be back

1st time experience – FANTASTIC

Wednesday prime rib special absolutely worth it. Don’t be late – sells out quickly.
Happy Hour appetizers also excellent along with the drink specials. House wine was surprisingly well above “house” level.

Chocolate mocha parfait – black forest in a jar! Extravagant and delicious. Absolutely a sharable.

Bartender Steve was engaging, upbeat and competent tending bar, answering the phone and waiting our table.

Heard that the wings are excellent – Thursday special.

All in all – 7.8 out of 5 !!
Highly recommend
Will return

If you are in Safety Harbor, do yourself a favor and stop in here at the Brinehouse. They had quite possibly the best mushroom bisque I’ve ever had. Our group also got the Ybor Special (cuban sandwich), cauliflower mash (extra yum), and the large House salad with the house poppyseed dressing. Everything was fresh, delicious, and perfect. We will definitely be coming back to try more on the menu.

All the meats are brined so they taste fantastic no matter what… juicy and flavorful. Some of the sandwiches like the Cuban has a different twist… all for the better. Also had the pumpkin seed crusted salmon topped with fennel.
Many gluten free options.
Top notch place for brined meats and home made sandwiches and sauces.

The Brinehouse in Safety Harbor Elevates the Art of Brine
A Flavor-Packed Dining Experience on Main Street
by Tampa Bay Food Tours

Located right on Main Street, The Brinehouse is the sister restaurant to the beloved Dunedin Smokehouse. Fans of the Smokehouse will recognize some familiar flavor profiles, but The Brinehouse stands on its own with unique brines, house-made sauces, and thoughtful presentation. Currently, they’re open for dinner and offer weekend lunch service.

Starters That Shine
We kicked things off with the charred cauliflower florets— tossed in a lemon agave buffalo hot sauce and topped with gorgonzola crumbles.

Another standout starter is the maple bourbon brined chicken wings, available with a variety of house-made sauces: Each sauce brings its own personality—don’t be afraid to ask for a sampler!

Entrées & Sides That Steal the Show
Entrées come with a choice of two sides, and in many cases, the sides are stars in their own right.

The petite side salad was more like a meal—brimming with fresh ingredients and topped with one of their house-made dressings.

The Green Goddess potato salad deserves its own fan club—herbaceous, creamy, and bright.

Other favorites: garlicky broccolini with gorgonzola fondue and crispy parmesan Brussels sprouts—both bursting with bold flavor.

We highly recommend the Texas Two-Step mixed grill platter, which lets you sample two of the five protein entrées.

Angus beef tri-tip steak: Coffee-brined and grilled, then topped with a wild mushroom ancho chili sauce. Tender and rich—this dish changed my mind about tri-tip.

Duroc pork tenderloin: Garlic-cumin brined and finished with a tangy cherry pepper BBQ glaze.

Both proteins were perfectly cooked and deeply flavorful.

Final Thoughts
The Brinehouse is a must-try spot for anyone who appreciates bold flavors, careful technique, and locally rooted hospitality. Whether you’re here for the wings, the brined pork, or simply those addictive Brussels sprouts, you’re in for a treat.

We’re already planning our next visit. Stop by and tell them Tampa Bay Food Tours sent you!

A Culinary Journey at Brinehouse: Where Bold Flavors Meet Refined Craft

From the moment the Steak Rustler arrived at our table, it was clear that Brinehouse in Safety Harbor understands the art of flavor composition. This isn’t just a steakhouse dish—it’s a carefully orchestrated symphony of tastes that speaks to both Southern comfort and culinary innovation.

The star of the evening was undoubtedly the steak itself, cooked to perfection with a beautiful char that locked in every bit of its natural richness. But what elevated this dish from excellent to extraordinary was the inspired pairing of pimento cheese and poblano peppers. The creamy, tangy pimento cheese brought a luxurious texture and nostalgic warmth, while the poblano peppers added a subtle heat and earthy complexity that danced across the palate. Each bite revealed new layers—the smokiness of the peppers playing against the sharpness of the cheese, all while the perfectly seasoned steak anchored the experience with its robust, satisfying presence.

The Antipasto Salad served as the ideal counterpoint to the richness of the Steak Rustler. Fresh, vibrant, and thoughtfully composed, this wasn’t your standard salad—it was a celebration of texture and acidity. The pickled vegetables brought a bright, tangy punch that awakened the palate, while the fresh ingredients provided crisp contrast and garden-fresh flavor. It’s the kind of dish that reminds you why great restaurants pay attention to every course, not just the main event.

What impressed me most about this meal was the balance. Brinehouse has mastered the delicate art of creating dishes that are simultaneously bold and refined, comforting yet sophisticated. The kitchen clearly respects quality ingredients while having the confidence to push flavor boundaries.

For anyone seeking an elevated dining experience in Safety Harbor, Brinehouse delivers not just a meal, but a memorable culinary journey worth savoring.

I went on Tuesday for the trivia as per usual. The food is always good but this time it was amazing! I got the special jalapeño popper sandwich and it’s the best thing I’ve ever tried from there- very creative. I liked the pig pick in the sandwich- so cuteeee. Whoever cooked that deserves a raise. They’ve upped their game!! Graeme is a good server too…. 11/10 food 10/10 service

I have heard great things so I had to come try! Excellent I had the YBor special. Pork was perfectly marriage needed, and tender, and excellent amount of toppings and cheese, followed by their mustard aïoli.. what a great menu with plenty of options that are off the beaten path. They also have a full bar and tv screens. I would definitely recommend coming here..
