    The service level has gone way down. On a not busy Tuesday, and seemingly lots of staff we could have a way better service experience. The valets and hosts are lovely. The server was moving at a glacial pace and poured flat processo into a stemless wine glass.

    Very nice place to eat. My chicken Caesar salad was about $35, so I didn't feel bad not ordering an actual entree. It was very good tasting. The watermelon drinks we ordered were amazing and a reasonable price point for the area. We would recommend to friends and family and would love to go again. The view is wonderful, right on the water. Lots of Adirondack chairs outside along with an outside bar, for just hanging around enjoying yourself. The valet parking is free, but you should tip (we did drop off and pickup). These guys are really friendly and were very busy for the few hours we were there.

    Highest quality food we ate in Newport. The price reflects that and then some. The view and location can’t be beat. We loved the lobster roll, tuna entree, calamari, and cold crab appetizer. Cobbler was exceptional.

    Most places with beautiful views have mediocre food but we enjoyed drinks and delicious apps on the patio. Our server was friendly and even got us a blanket on a chilly afternoon.
