    Incredible setting on the shore, watching sailboats go by while enjoying good food and a pleasant setting. What’s not to like?

    The view is priceless and the service is always wonderful! We each had wine and both were good, the ceviche was a little dissapointing since the chips seemed the same as store bought and it was hard to eat or moisten the chip but the taste of the scallop was good. Everything else was really great, the fish tacos, caesar salad with shrimp and the key lime pie and coffee. Look forward to returning.

    Very memorable lunch from the food to the service to the view (even if rainy) to the ambiance. Soft music playing in the background. Very attentive service without being a nuisance. Lobster roll stacked so high with chunks of lobster and topped with homemade onion sticks - one of the best in Newport. Salads topped with either chicken or grilled shrimp - both proteins cooked perfectly. Veggie market salad so fresh with local produce. Always recommend and will definitely return.

    It was a beautiful experience! Sunny day, under umbrellas, watching boats go by, and drinking cocktails was such a vibe! Good food and drinks!

    This is a beautiful location for a special occasion. Delicious mocktails - not too many places offer specialty drinks for those who don’t partake of alcohol. The baby kale salad and the burrata L T were our favorite choices. I wouldn’t get the goat cheese cheesecake again. Too much goat not enough cake. Excellent cappuccino.
