Breakers Restaurant & Bar exudes a laid-back vibe that carries through its dinner menu of casual surf 'n' turf dishes favored by a regular clientele of North Shore boardriders. Test your hunger's waters with the Breakers Cakers ($12.95), crab cakes plated with a zesty homemade tropical salsa and a creamy garlic mayo. The beer-battered fish ($16.95) cloaks a fresh catch in a crispy, suds-laced jump suit, and the Hawaiian burger ($11.95) sports a festive pattern of grilled pineapple, teriyaki sauce, and traditional fixings. With prowess over land and sea, the surf 'n' turf entree ($23.95) tackles barren bellies with coconut shrimp and an 8-ounce new york strip steak. Breakfast and lunch menus ably accommodate morning wave riders and morning DJs done surfing radio waves.

Breakers' bartenders bear the drink menu, which offers thirsty maws beer ($3.50+), wine ($5.25+/glass), and specialty drinks such as the Cadillac margarita ($10) with Cabo Wabo blanco tequila and 22-inch rims. With surfboards cresting its walls, weekly live music infiltrating its halls, and plants sprouting from an outdoor patio that spies views of rolling hills, Breakers beckons even the most tightly wound patron to convivially unravel like a ball of yarn that just challenged a kitten to a duel.
