“The food here is average and, in my opinion, lacks the bold and authentic Mexican flavors I was expecting. The dishes were decent, but nothing really stood out or made us want to come back specifically for the food.

That said, the atmosphere is nice and it’s a good place to hang out, relax, and spend time with friends or family. If you’re looking more for a comfortable place to sit, have a few drinks, and enjoy the ambiance rather than authentic Mexican food, this could be a good option. Overall, a nice setting, but the food could definitely use more flavor and authenticity.“

“Breakaway is a much better place for breakfast than for lunch. For lunch today we had 3 sandwiches (2 chicken pesto and one turkey BLT), one large chocolate chip cookie and three (tap) waters. Total with tip: $64! The two chicken pesto sandwiches were meager in size (skimpy filling) and dry, requiring extra mayo. The turkey BLT was generous in size, tasty, but very difficult to eat. The chocolate chip cookie was excellent. We have come here many times for breakfast (especially for their delicious and huge breakfast burrito), but left disappointed at lunch over the high cost and unremarkable sandwiches.“

The outdoor dining area is intimate and charming.
There's even a wendigo bust on the wall.“
