Great prime rib and a jalapeno dip for an appetizer. Friendly and attentive server. Good beer selection. Comfortable seating. Manager/owner stopped at table a couple times to check on us.

If it hadn’t been for the high Google rating, we probably wouldn’t have stopped here for dinner — we might’ve assumed it was just another local bar with a great beer selection. Thankfully, the reviews drew us in, and even with high expectations, we were still pleasantly surprised.

From the start, the cocktail selection was thoughtful and the one we tried was both colorful and inventive. That same creativity carried through to the food: a well-executed blend of modern American cuisine with French and Chinese influences. It’s a bold mix, but it worked beautifully. Highlights included a rich, creamy garlic-cheese French fondue and a fresh, vibrant shrimp and rice bowl — both dishes were flavorful and artfully presented.

The outdoor patio offered a great atmosphere, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The only small drawback was the relatively limited vegetarian selection, though there were still a few solid options — and the ones we tried were genuinely tasty.

I genuinely love this place. I work in West Haven, so me and my coworkers & friends come here a lot for bingo specifically – but this spot is IT!!! The service is awesome, the owners are super friendly, and the food is soooo good every single time. I have never had a bad experience and I’ve been coming here for a year and a half! This is a great spot! Highly recommend!

Ever since it has been bought by new owners, I’ve seen a real shift. I loved Savin Rock Roasting Company, don’t get me wrong! Have lived here for 8 years. But you can tell The Breakwall is trying something different when it comes to creating a destination and source of entertainment on the West Haven Shoreline. The Trivia on Tuesdays is the best Trivia I’ve been to in a long time — super old school way of reading out the answers and getting the entire restaurant involved. I’ve enjoyed all the live music they’ve had on Thursdays and Saturdays. And the FOOD (which is the most important thing) is amazing. I love their specials and always get excited when they publish new ones. You have to try all of the different egg rolls they do — the Philly Cheese Steak Egg rolls are to die for. I love their drink choices — always good options on draft. Happy there are some new owners who have respected what residents used to love ab the old restaurant, while bringing a fresh perspective and new life to the West Haven food scene.

The Rice Bowls here are outstanding. A little bit of everything in every bite always hits the spot. The wing can’t be beat. You have to try one of their various Loaded Potatoes!!!The staff is always extremely attentive and courteous. They regularly have different types of entertainment ranging from trivia to live music and Karaoke.

I came here with an optimistic mindset considering that it appears to be just another hole in the wall. Upon arrival no say with my acquaintances who already had a table reserved. I waited 47 minutes and made four attempts at placing my order. An individual brought food that my table ordered prior to my arrival. I spoke to the server who brought the food attempting to inquire about placing the order. He could not wait to inform me in the most egocentric of ways that he is the owner. Shout out to Brendan. His response was “ I don’t think the server is sleeping.” I observed various tables being served and yet I was still waiting. This is a total snooze fest anyway with the overwhelming majority of the patrons being geriatric. The food was fresh and well made. Good customer service goes a long way. Perhaps I’m just not the desired demographic.

We were having a rough week and decided to treat ourselves for our anniversary and did not regret it.

The service was absolutely stellar with everyone being so polite.

We got the Phillysteak egg roll starter and at first I was disappointed it only came with 4 but then I realized why, the meal portions were amazing and I definitely would have been stuffed if we ate more.

My prime rib special came with a generous portion as well as fries and grilled veggies.

My partner got an amazing chicken wrap with some onion rings which are made in house and melt in your mouth.

We were recommended a great house wine as well and ended the night with a great dessert.

Overall for a starter, two meals (my prime rib being of course on the pricier side), wine, soda, and dessert it only came to $90 before tip. For how great the food is this was a steal and they also have a rewards program as well.

We will definitely be treating ourselves more often and recommending this fantastic place to friends and family!
