    Outstanding experience. Gracious greeters, attentive staff, knowledgeable wait staff, gorgeous setting along the Narragansett Bay. Amazing views of sailboats, vintage and modern motor vessels, even the Queen Mary 2 passed by as she exited the bay. Sunset was amazing! And the food, cheese plate to start, followed by fabulous sea bass, yummy burger, accompanied by a beautiful bottle of Burgundy. Finished with chocolate decadence and goat cheese-cheese cake with just the perfect texture. Don’t forget the yummy espresso martinis for the perfect ending. This outstanding experience is just that-outstanding! Thanks to all who made this evening so special for our birthday dinner celebration!

    The Lawn Terrace at Castle Hill never disappoints. Beautiful scenery, even on a cloudy day. Our server was attentive and polite, and explained all of our options. The blackened tuna was delicious, as was the vegetable lumache. Our meals averaged $60 apiece, including a glass of wine. The quality of the food and experience was outstanding, and it was an easy space to share the afternoon with friends.

    From the moment we arrived at Castle Hill Inn, we were swept away by the charm, elegance, and serene beauty of this historic property. Nestled on a picturesque peninsula in Newport, Rhode Island, the inn offers sweeping views of Narragansett Bay that are nothing short of breathtaking.

    Our meal was delicious. We started with delicious cocktails and calamari. Each one o us had the tuna entree. I was looking forward to the papaya salsa which wasn’t on our plate but instead had a very good tomato salad. Still missed the papaya salsa. After we finished we moved from the terrace to the Adirondack chairs on the grass. It was the prefect ending to our day.
