    rather pricey for very mediocre food - burger was ok but $34, grain bowl was bland and rather tasteless. The restaurant though is very pretty and in a good location. Server was great

    One of my favorite steak houses and always a great take when in Newport! Bring a light jacket or sweater if you sit outside as New England weather can shift on a dime but nighttime on the wharf is a great experience.

    It is a busy area so not a quiet spot, but lively and fun. Very good, interesting takes on the food. Good service at a busy time on a weekend. We hope to go back next time we are in Newport!

    Anytime I am in Newport I go to 22 Bowen. It is such a fabulous place to eat and overlook the marina and people watch. I always ask for the same server, Stephane. Stephane is always pleasant and welcoming. He always suggests food when we are indecisive. Of course I end up always going with the same thing, the lobster roll. It is probably the best lobster roll I’ve had. Highly suggest eating here and ask for Stephane. Tell him Jenn sent you. He will treat you like family.
