We got a reservation for 12 on a Saturday which was amazing in its own right. Lakeside view was beautiful. Server was super attentive and on top of all the minor requests. Crab cakes were delicious and the pico de gallo had an extra spicy kick to it. The ahi tuna was delicious but the portion was on the smaller side. The chicken prosciutto was outstanding. Yes the chicken dish! Chicken breast was well seasoned and moist, and the prosciutto wrap was salty and complimented the chicken really well. Definitely would order that again. We would definitely return and recommend others to try The Breeze.

Recently went to The Breeze in Gilford, NH and Heather (server) was wonderful and the food was awesome, however it was so HOT in the old bar area that I had to actually get up and go outside just to breathe. We will be going back, but not at dinner time in the summer.

If you haven't yet tried The Breeze in Gilford, do yourself a favor and go! My parents and I had lunch there and it was the best meal I've had in a long time. The steamed mussels were the best I've ever had and the seafood saffron (below) was unique and delicious. The service was outstanding as well. We will definitely be back!

Love, Love, Love the Breeze! The staff is amazing...from a friendly, smiling face upon walking in, staff walking by, the GM... all working together - aka, 'one team'! Their is a good menu selection for non-seafood eaters (like myself); and they've been great with minimal modifications. Menu pricing is within what you'd expect to pay; typically the 'specials' are the most expensive ($50-$60) but worth it. When it's busy, the overall noise level is high --and the AC can have a hard time keeping up in the summer. They've upgraded one of their ACs recently which should help improve. Few of my favs are the chicken tenders, flatbreads, veggie rice bowl, chicken sandwich and pork chop. Nice ambiance and 98% of the patrons are very friendly! One of our favorite places to dine!

I tried The Breeze for the first time on Monday evening and can't wait to go back! We got there around 5 and had no problem getting a table for 3. The atmosphere is fantastic.. bright and open (and spotlessly clean!) with gorgeous views of the lake. We sat at a high top in the bar area and it was perfect. The drink menu was eclectic with lots of unique specialty cocktails - I got a Mezcal Negroni and it was absolutely delicious... I've been talking about it all week! The wine selection was plentiful as well. We started off with the grilled octopus appetizer and were certainly not disappointed! It was cooked to perfection and the presentation was great. I had a Caesar salad with steak tips for dinner which were also cooked perfectly medium rare and the homemade dressing was excellent. The burger looked great and so did the Steak tip salad! The rest of the menu sounds awesome and I can't wait to go back! Matt, our server, was very personable and knowledgeable about both the food & drink menu. Everyone working was pleasant and smiling and that makes the whole experience that much better. As someone who works in the restaurant industry (and have for many years) I can be critical.... But this place gets 5 stars hands down! 10/10 would recommend!

1st impressions are important & The Breeze faired well with me. The bar & dining area has a bright contemporary atmosphere to it. Additionally the bar seating has a beautiful view of Lake Winnipeasaukee. Only had drinks & an appetizer but both were very good. The bartender was prompt and polite. Looking at their menu, food and drink prices are reasonable. I'll definitely be back in the future to more thoroughly check out their menu selections. I recommend The Breeze for an enjoyable app & drink experience.
