   This place was great! The food and portions were really good. Everything was delicious. We could barely finish the meal but we enjoyed it so much we powered through. The staff was amazing and friendly and very attentive. We really had a nice time and I would visit them again.

   Excellent service however both of our scallop dishes had a strong burnt taste. The staff and manager gave us the opportunity to try another dish. This time my wife and I chose a flat bread to share. The burnt taste from our scallops still permeated our palate so it made it difficult to enjoy the flat bread. Service and staff were great, the food not so much.

   Never been so embarrassed in my life. The waitress ran after us down the street accusing us of taking the receipt. I always fill out both and leave them. No customer service never came back to check on us. Never will go back and would recommend it either

   Very convenient for hotel guests! We were tired and it was great to have this restaurant available. Clam chowder and chicken caesar salad were standouts and kids enjoyed burger, chicken fingers and fries. Service was great, ambiance just ok. Prices were what you would expect from a hotel.

   Our waiter, Carolyn, was excellent. We got the Tuna Poke bowl, Braised Short Rib, Calamari, and Clam Chowder. All the food was very good. Prices were a bit high, but about as expected for a resort hotel restaurant in Newport. Not the best value but a good choice, and convenient for hotel guests. Would dine again.

   My meal was cold. Neighboring table was seated after us and served before us. I ordered a 2nd beer which was not served. Server was pleasant enough. Not sure we would recommend or go back. We live in Newport so we got a discount.

    Booked because Prix-Fixe menu looked good for restaurant week. Food was decent. Service seemed disorganized despite having limited customers on a Saturday night. Loud party going on towards back of restaurant. Lighting kept switching on low to dim while dining which was rather annoying. Noted on reservation dinner was for a birthday celebration which no one noticed. Not the best dining experience nor the worst. There are so many great restaurants in Newport. Last time I will be back to this one.
