Make sure you like whatever drink you order because they won't take it back. Apparently it's there policy. Mix drinks are terrible ?

Wonderful x100!!!I'm so happy that me and my family came here! ??? it really made our beach trip so much better! Their ribeye and shrimp were cooked to perfection ??? Our server was on top of it. It was awesome that they had a band playing. We had a great time. We'll definitely return when we're back in the area. ???️?

Breakwater never disappoints. I had the crab cakes which are packed with meat and just enough stuff to hold it together. Other had the fish tacos which were a hit and a really large portion. Service was really friendly and made you feel welcome. The building seems to have been redone since were last there and it was nice. Really amazing food!

We had Tayler as our server, and let me tell you...she was one of the best we have had! The restaurant was pretty busy, big parties, so there was a wait and they were short staffed. But everything was fantastic. Shout out to her and the others working, truly awesome work. The food....some of the best food we have eaten on the coast. We will absolutely be back to try more. Seriously, if you're traveling or on vacation it is so worth the drive!!!

Delicious food, great friendly service and a beautiful view! We tried the appetizers and enjoyed them very much. The bartender made excellent drinks!

Breakwater used to be a great spot. The food is generally great but during the summer they are consistently out of at least 7 menu items and most specials within an hour of opening. We have been coming here, year round for years and the deck was always a great spot. Now it is crammed full of large families and kids waiting for tables. I love kids but not while I am trying to have a cocktail at sunset. Maybe rethinking the “No Reservations” policy might help alleviate this excessive overflow? Maybe just for parties of over 10 with a credit card authorization? It might make life easier for the XL families, the rest of the patrons, the kitchen and Breakwater.

Amazing food, view, service and atmosphere! Prices were also good! They have something for everyone.Dietary restrictions: I was able to ask ingredients in the sauce and they knew all the answers! Made everything I wanted dairy free.Kid-friendliness: Took our little one and everyone was so kind.

The view is awesome! The Pesto shrimp was way too oily for me, and I LOVE pesto. We ran out of drinks multiple times throughout our night.

Good appetizers. My pasta dish was terrible. Very watery sauce, my pasta was extremely overcooked. It was like my noodles were boiling for an hour. I feel this place is overrated.

Our waitress Tayler gave us the best service we’ve ever had in our lives. She was so helpful and accommodating.Tayler was so good with our drunk father … shewww what a handful he can be! My young daughter Vivian was getting a little fussy, tayler did a great job calming her down and fetching her some crayons! We can’t say enough about the chef either, best food we’ve ever had. wow, we can’t wait to bring our family of 35 back next year(:p.s. brittany didn’t stop smiling all night

Food was super mediocre... We ordered 2 of the grouper/scallop specials and it was all way over seasoned. When ordering the special, I would assume it would all be super fresh and that would be something you'd want to highlight but, again, it was way over seasoned, and the scallops were rubbery. The pesto didn't fit well with the dish and the veggies were a total after thought. Wouldn't be back for anything other than the drinks and view.

Very busy and popular restaurant. Waited a bit for our table and cocktails, but we kept ourselves entertained by enjoying the live music while people watching. Our orders varied all over the menu and there were no complaints on portion size or taste. Our only complaint was every special (and we mean every dish) was sold out. So, we settled on dishes from the menu with most of our dinner mates enjoying the Grouper, which was fresh and tasty.

NO TERIYAKI SAUCE on my mahi mahi. Where is the teriyaki sauce? All I ask for is some delicious teriyaki sauce.

The best restaurant in Hatteras area Outer Banks, NC. The 2 hour wait was well worth it. Crab stuffed mushrooms are to die for and the poppers. Main course favorite was shrimp pesto and. Scallop tortellini.

Breakwater was great for a large group, the staff was very friendly, the food was amazing and the views of the sunset can’t be beat. We will definitely be back!
