    Every single dish was AMAZING. Specifically, the scallops, octopus, salmon and wings. The drinks were phenomenal as well! Pricey, but worth the expense!

    Well yet another great experience at Shorebreak. If you like pork chops get them at Shorebreak. Comes with a Granny Smith apple sauce that is fantastic.

    A spectacular surprise. We went to Shorebreak after walking past the entrance and happened to see a sign advertising their "Tapas Tuesday" menu. It was noted that the menu was most of their regular dishes in smaller than entree or appetizer size. (Think 2 lamb chops rather than a rack of 8 or 4 for an appy). Oh man, we're we glad we did! This gave us a chance to try and share a multitude of dishes, rather than filling up on one or two. My DW had the grilled octopus, which was one of the very best I've had in my life! She also tried the salmon course, which was a revelation. The aforementioned lamb chops were absolutely beautifully prepared. The mushroom risotto, for such a "simple" dish was layers of complex flavors that really went well together. The bartender is a person of significant talent also. I had the 1838 Sazerac. As good as, if not better than, anything I've had in New Orleans. Herself had the Cucumber Oasis, which she liked to a " Pimms Cup on steroids" The cellar seems to be well and diversely stocked also. Obviously we couldn't take a deep dive into that, but what we had was wonderful. I also have to reiterate how much the "Tapas of our regular menu" idea was a hit with us. I allowed us to really explore what the kitchen could do. I truly wish other restaurants would take this idea to heart too. Simply, simply brilliant.

    All the food was excellently prepared and delicious. Best grilled octopus I've had outside of Italy. Service was excellent which made the whole experience that much better. Drinks expertly prepared and delicious. The only negative was the music on the speakers above us was a little loud and that made it difficult to hear conversation.

    Have been to Shorebreak several times before and always had an excellent meal. THis time I had the Charred Octopus entree. This was by far the best I have eaten. Server was knowledgeable and they have had the same chef for 11 years so the quality is consistent. Wife had the lamb which she enjoyed. The interior design is pleasant. Will be returning.
