This is a place for great food and personable service. Although this place is not cheap, you really do get your money's worth. From decor, to service, to food, out to the view, this is a wonderful place.

Went for Easter brunch with my husband and three sons, we are very particular about our food because my husband is an amazing cook, and we were delighted to say this dining experience exceeded expectations. Very thoughtful and creative menu, everything prepared and presented to perfection with the staff attentive and they really seemed to be enjoying their work which added to the experience. The views are stunning and the restaurant is just beautiful. Between the 5 of us we had most everything on the menu, soups, salads, lamb, pork, eggs benedict, deserts & days later we are still talking about how great everything was. This makes it to our top 3 favorite all time list. We will definitely go back,

My wife and I celebrated our anniversary at the Spiced Pear. We were treated to one of the best meals ever. The only thing better than the view was the amazing food. The lobster and salmon were wonderful choices. Some special touches (arranged centerpiece and Happy Anniversary message on our dessert plate) enhanced an already memorable evening. My wife turned to me as we concluded dinner and simply stated, "I want to see you try and top this next year!"

Great location as it's within a reasonable distance from most B&B's in Newport. I had been waiting to dine here for years and the wait was certainly worth it! Valet parking, coat check and my husband and I were seated on time. Our server was wonderful as he made great recommendations describing each dish with enthusiasm and great detail. We had the sweetbreads (app),lobster and hare (entrees) followed by the chocolate trio and banana flambe (superb!). Each dish was delicious (even the bread!) but I need to point out that the plating was absolutely exquisite - some of the best I've ever seen. A little noiseier than expected but an overall great experience! We're definitely going back for the chef tasting!!!

This restaurant came highly recommended and it was certainly very nice, but not amazing as expected. Food was good, but not spectacular.

Very mediocre food. I think Restaurant Week is a time to impress but the salad was from a bag, fish cake was bland & served over same greens and bread pudding was dry!

This is one of the more expensive restaurants in and around Newport, RI. Restaurant Week is a twice a year event and the fixed price menu was $30 per person. The regular menu would have cost two to three times that amount per person. Restaurant Week allows us the try places we would not normally go to.
The meal was a complete disappointment. From the salad, to both main courses, to the desserts, the food can best be described as ordinary. We had expected much more. There are so many other truly fine restaurants in Newport, Mama Luisa's and Bouchard's are two that come to mind. The food at these two is consistently excellent, and the cost is less.
If the purpose of Restaurant Week is to get diners to visit who would not normally eat th

My wife and I went for Newport restaurant week so we could get a taste of what it was like to dine in such a high class establishment where Jackets are prefered. The only table available was a 930 at night reservation which we used open table to get. I don't think you could have gotten a seat without a reservation. We showed up at 9 and valeted my beater truck as a couple in an evening gown and suit were leaving into a bentley. We had to ask the valet if they would let us in after we saw that couple and he assured us we looked dapper enough. Very nice bar to get some really good drinks while waiting and we were seated at 927. EVERYTHING was amazing and well worth it. I would have licked the plate if it wouldn't have gotten us kicked out!
