The first time we went here it was fantastic and 5 stars. They have a kids menu and the wait staff are excellent.
The second time we went for a mothers day dinner but were not informed that it was a set dinner. We did not like half of the food that they were serving but they did make us some Cesar salads instead. The main course tasted excellent but had a very small portion and walked away still hungry. The wait staff were excellent again but we did not like the food choice, the portions were way to Small and we were not informed of the set menu when we booked.
We do like the regular menu but would not go back with a set menu in place. -

Went here on Saturday afternoon, party of 7 including my GF's mother's 70th birthday party. We had not planned on coming to Breakwater but were pleasantly surprised.
Staff was very friendly and attentive, the server worked with the kitchen to create a vegan meal for someone in our party. Outdoor patio was very nice and comfortable.
I had the gnocchi w/ chicken and it was absolutely amazing. One of the best entrees I've had in a few years. Green salad was great too. We had a 2007 Valpolicella red and it was excellent.
Great service, friendly and attentive staff, delicious food, good wine. Well done. -

I feel bad for Giselle's experience at this restaurant because I love this place a lot! It is very high-end fine dine restaurant. I have to admit that I only visit this place once a year with my entertainment book coupon at this stage of my life. It does motivate me to be more ambitious in my career every time after dinning there.
I've been here one time with my extended family and two times with my boyfriend for our very special days (usually a birthday or anniversary). None of us are vegetarian, so we've ordered rack of lamb, filet mignon, fish etc. All of the dishes taste really good! None of us were disappointed. The last time I was there, we ordered the lobster bisque, and they first placed the soup dish, and then pour the soup out from a silver tea pot in front of you, it was a very British experience, I felt so spoiled. Between your appetizer and main dish, they will bring up sorbet to cleanse your palate before the next course.
Finally, they have excellent artisan bread as well. I don't think I have ordered their dessert because I'm usually too full by then.
It's best to go on a warmer day so you can take a walk around the area as there are quite a few interesting shops nearby. It is also very romantic to take a walk along the lake towards the pier. -

Members of my extended family love this restaurant so I found myself dining here with family in March. I ordered the vegetarian tasting plate, one of two vegetarian entree options (the other was a mushroom risotto), and found it disappointing.
The vegetarian tasting plate was a strange assortment of items. A tiny bowl of olives seemed out of place and thoughtless (it's not difficult to open a jar of mixed olives), and the plate was too heavy on fried dumplings (one mushroom-potato bitterball with a mushy centre, and two zucchini dumplings). A small pile of lentils and squash had a nice earthy flavour but the lentils were crunchy (obviously undercooked). Rounding out the tasting plate, a slice of tomato topped with mozzarella and basil was nothing special.
While my party enjoyed amuse-bouches, I got nothing after telling the waiter I was vegetarian. And this is despite calling the restaurant the previous night to inquire into vegetarian options and alert them I'd be dining there. For a restaurant boasting all kinds of fine-dining awards, you'd think their kitchen could've assembled a vegetarian amuse-bouche for me. Instead I got persona non grata treatment. This impression was reinforced when I emailed the restaurant to give them polite feedback on the veg tasting plate and received no reply.
