Laya was our server… OUTSTANDING! She was efficient, polite & humble. The food, PHENOMENAL. I’m a huge shrimp & grits fan. By far, the best I’ve had. My fiancé had the jerk pork chop. Very flavorful. Well worth the money. Live band outside & amazing views!

Easily one of the best places I’ve had here for dinner. Service was great and the food was delivered quick! We did arrive right when it opened so that could have something to do with the quick service. I went with as many specials as I could as those are usually what’s in season or what was recently caught that day. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting but if you’re coming in large group, I would try to come early to get a table otherwise you could wait. Also, the drinks are great!

After arriving on the Ocracoke ferry, this was very close to the terminal. Although it is upstairs, it does have handicapped access.

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!

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.

The Dock Chips were an amazing start. Shrimp & Grits and Mahi Mahi were enjoyed, absolutely loved the coleslaw! My sister remarked that a sunset would make it a perfect evening…someone heard her.

Came here on a Sunday evening when they opened for dinner. Service was enthusiastic and quick. Enjoyed our server’s Halloween costume too. The live music was a nice touch for dinner service.

Excellent food and service with great view of the sound. We ate here 2x on our week vacation. They do get crowded so go early. Great cocktails too! The pesto shrimp pasta dish was to die for and their crab cakes passed the test for our Maryland friends! You won’t be disappointed! Desserts were fabulous too!!
