    Breaking Bread is a fun, lively restaurant with delicious food and fantastic specials. The servers were very knowledgeable, hard working and friendly. Everything we ordered was excellent. Highly recommend the meatballs. The desserts, all made on premises, were phenomenal as well.

    The food was excellent. They added more tables and packed us in. Way too close. It was so loud in there we couldn’t even talk.

    The dinner was awesome last night. Braised short rib with mashed potatoes & Fresh Flounder oreganato. The restaurant is small so sometimes it can be a little noisey but worth the meal & service! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
