ABOUT US:

Building upon a legacy which once was, what better place to plant a restaurant that transcends back in time than the old Newport Plaza theater, located at 600 West 35th Street in Norfolk Virginia.  The theater was built in 1928, a time when Jazz was fresh and new. Following this period was the Harlem Renaissance, an era originating in Harlem New York.  Entertainers like Lena Horne, Sarah Vaughan, Cab Calloway, Louis Armstrong, Josephine Baker and the like, were carving out their names in History.

”Nothing but the best for the best,” that means YOU. 

WHAT’S IN A NAME: BRICKSTER’S 600

Brickster’s was formulated from the word BRICK. The primary function of bricks is to build strong foundations. When stacked, they build walls that reach insurmountable heights evolving into magnificent architectural designs. They elevate, protect and withstand the test of time. Their strength, foundation and fortitude, brings to mind what our ancestors provided for us. Without their shoulders to stand on, ingenuity and determination, we would not be where we are today. We could not have reached insurmountable heights or propelled ourselves to greatness. Their sacrifices have allowed us to evolve into magnificent individuals. At Brickster’s we pay homage to African Americans who have made sacrifices for the present generation and generations to come.

“That is what’s in the name”
