Reviews for BREAKWATER in Stonington, CT
I?ve always wanted to try this place. This place is a perfect waterfront location with a parking lot. They offer kids a kids... menu and they will provide crayons for them to color. We were able to sit outside and in the shade where we could still see thewater. Our waitress was nice. We ordered a bunch of appetizers and the clam chowder. The clam chowder was delicious! Thereweren?t too many potatoes in it and it was really thick. We also got the regular calamari, which was good and crispy and thelegs on the calamari were not extra chewy. My son got the steak kids meal that he absolutely loved it and was cooked toperfection and the waffle sweet potato fries were also delicious! We also got the mushroom bruschetta and also the shrimptostada. Everything was delicious and flavorful but the tostada was a little hard to eat so we definitely utilized thoseutensils. I got the tropical mojito that was very tasty and I felt like I was in the Caribbean and my husband stuck with draftbeers. They have a decent beer list. It seems like they also may have daily specials and soups of the day. We will certainlyvisit again and love their variety of food! Read more

We always enjoy going to Breakwater! This restaurant is always consistent with its food, cocktails and service. The wife and I... have found that one of the biggest problems with waterfront dining in Connecticut and New England for that matter is lack ofconsistency in good/great food and service. We never worry about that when we come to Breakwater! The only other place inNew England that I would mention is Coastguard House in RI. That to me and I hope to Breakwater is quite a compliment! We willbe back again and again this season and for years to come! Read more
Great food and loved the location. We came for dinner and did the prix fixe menu and it was delicious! The butternut squash soup... was amazing, and they had a good selection of desserts. Really pretty view and the servers were super friendly Read more
First I must comment on its location, driving through the beautiful historic town of Stonington you will find this beautiful... restaurant on the water - kinda tricky to find if your from out of town as it is nestled between the pretty old buildings/homesbut we did get to drive around some cool historical cannons. Service was absolutely spectacular from our hostess who was superfriendly to our waiter Keila who made us feel very welcome. We had the fried calamari, mussels marinara and blue cheese fonduwith toasted French bread to start - all very tasty The main courses we had were the sword fish, grilled seafood medley andfish tacos - all fresh and delicious - just what everyone in my party craved and enjoyed I would defiantly recommend if you arepassing through and in the mood for fresh tasting seafood Read more
Excellent food and we enjoyed the entire time we were there! The salads were fresh and crispy, we asked for extras (anchovies,... dressing) because it was so good, and we were never rushed - in fact the meal was so well paced there was even time betweencourses. The clams and oysters were fresh and so tasty, and the burgers exceeded our expectations. They were huge with toppingswe even added to (fried egg on a burger - delish!). What made the meal Exceptional was the delight of Taylor's taking Great careof us. She made sure we had everything we needed and all the dishes were wonderful. Highly highly recommend. Read more
Food was good and the service was great too. Right on the water, so the vibe was nice. Best way to enjoy the first day in CT.... Getting here and parking was a little tricky, because you miss the turn, and you have to go all the way around and U-turn back. Read more
