The food was delicious. This was our first time here and will definitely go back. Our server, Brittany, was awesome. Courteous, friendly, knowledgeable of everything on the menu - great sense of humor as well. Open and airy inside; tables weren't on top of one another. We had clam chowder, citrus salad, seafood pasta, and cod fish tacos. Sorry, no room for dessert. Give it a try.

Y U M. Oysters were fabulous. The clam chowder? Holy crap. Lobster bisque was GREAT but I think the chowder was better We ordered the firecracker shrimp and it was really great too. The shrimp were massive! I ordered the prickly pear margarita and thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was quick and the staff was very kind. This place seems to go both ways, casual & formal. The viewwwwww is unreal. If it wasn't so windy we would have sat outside. Maybe next time!

On our way back to Newport from Mystic, we stopped at Stonington CT for dinner on a recommendation from one of my husband's VPs at his company. He didn't steer us wrong. Breakwater has a great outdoor deck which we took advantage of. It's so nice to dine outside enjoying the ocean, watching the boats and the birds. There's a large bar area inside the restaurant and a large dining room as well. Our server Faith took great care of us. She was engaging and friendly. We started with drinks, a Paloma for me and an ice tea for hubby since we had a long drive back to Newport. I requested the bartender to omit the soda and my Paloma was perfect. Loved the tajin rim. My hubby and I shared the clam & corn fritters and also a bowl of the New England clam chowder. The fritters were crispy with the perfect crunch on the outside and soft on the inside. There were five of them served with homemade tartar sauce. The clam chowder was spot on, filled with lots of clams and diced potatoes, the soup was thick and creamy. I had the tuna tartare appetizer for my entrée, and hubby chose the Baja tacos with grilled salmon. The fish is so fresh in New England. We both enjoyed what we ordered, so tasty! My tuna tartare came with black rice and was served with perfectly crisp wontons. I love black rice! My husband's Baja tacos had huge pieces of perfectly grilled, flaky and tender salmon. He mentioned how much he loved the flavor of the salmon. If you're in the Mystic or Stonington area, I highly recommend this restaurant. I'm so glad it was recommended to us.

Breakwater was recommended by friends, so glad we listened. Friendly staff, fast service. Seafood oriThe waterfront location is part of the dining experience, specifically if sunny. The food was delicious, priced well. Reservations recommended.

I may be biased because we have had special moments at this place. The people here are so kind! I absolutely love that about this establishment. The food was good too. The seafood was fresh, and the drinks were impressive. When we go to Mystic, we always make sure to pass by here. The Bloody Mary was fun. The calamari wasn't too oily. The raw bar orders were fresh, and inhaled instantly! The view is spectacular. They have a dock which you can park your boat at. Now I need a boat.

Beautiful ambience and definitely a great place to stop to sit by the water. I definitely think that sitting outside on a beautiful day is the best way to eat your meal. The food was very good. I really enjoyed my lobster roll and the kids ate all of their food. My husband thought that the scallops had great flavor. The drinks tasted great also, I could sit by the water and have drinks all afternoon!! lol our server was very nice and helpful. Everything came out fairly quickly. I definitely would come back here or recommend it if you're in the area.

Great place on the water and we sat at the bar for happy hour. The bartenders are awesome and make some great drinks. The food is fantastic! Blackened cod BLT was cooked perfectly with a nice thick piece of cod that they grilled for me instead of frying it. The bacon was crispy and the lettuce and tomato (I added pickle) was a perfect combination. The fresh fried chips were good drenched with malt vinegar. The hot dog was delicious as well...cooked perfectly with the crunch from the natural casing wagu beef. The fish tacos are perfect on a hot summer day...very light and refreshing with all toppings and grilled cod. Make a day of it and hit the happy hour for 1/2 price bar menu items.

Great restaurant on the water, the view is spectacular with the bay in the background. I ordered a surf n turf special, a lobster mac&cheese, fish n chips, seafood pasta. Everything was delicious. The service was exceptional. Friendly staff. The atmosphere here is perfect on the water. The prices were reasonable. They have a nice bar inside. Really nice place to be on a Friday night. A little busy at 530. I would love to hang here on a Friday night!

Brittany is the best! The restaurant has an ideal view and a great choice of outdoor or indoor seating with large windows in every direction. Wonderful breeze off the sound and boats to see coming in and out. Brittany recommended the scallops and she was right, they were superb. Generous portions, I could not finish mine, bit it was excellent. Nice bar selection, some unusual local beers, that's always a plus. Big menu so you can order something simple or get the chefs special of the day, which my wife did, the scallop special. What a wonderful meal.
