    It was great to have a place like this at the hotel. We enjoyed it. It was a little too chilly at times and occasionally food take a while. But all in all it was very nice.

    Only 5 other people in restraint Noise level very low. Food ok but too expensive. Unexpected corking charge of 35.00 for the free bottle that they gave us.

    Restaurant service was slow, had to remind server to get us a second drink. Service staff seemed disengaged and not enthusiastic. Probably poor management in place. Food was ok but expensive for the overall experience. I would not go back.

    We were at the new year's party. The appetizers were good, but the open bar selection was terrible. Only two selections of red wine and two of white wine, some beer, and vodka drinks are available. I couldn't even open a tab for the drinks we wanted. VERY CHEAP OPEN BAR. We had to walk to the other bar in a different hotel location to get the drink we wanted. Embracing.

    Food was very underwhelming, mac n cheese tasted like kfraft mac n cheese. My husband tried ordering four different whiskeys, each time the server came back to inform us they were out. One of the steaks we ordered medium rare and came out very rare. The quality of food/service is not worth the cost.

    Not what we expected. It was a breakfast buffet, most of the cooked food was already gone and/or cold. Still we got charged the full price. Will not go back there.

    Horrible. Server was extremely rude. After waiting 25 minutes I had to get the manager’s attention in order for us to be acknowledged. Unfortunately, because we were a party of six the 20% gratuity was already included in bill. Had it not, we would have left the server nothing. There are many restaurants with beautiful view in Newport, don’t waste your time or money at this one.

    The food in this restaurant was amazing!! We started off with lobster gnocchi that was absolutely delicious. I had the chicken statler and my friend had the halibut. Both were very good. Don’t disregard this restaurant since it’s in a hotel. I’d highly recommend it.

    Food was incredibly expensive and not worth the value. Rib eye steak $95. Not much selection on the menu. Fries taste like McDonalds fries, not enough staff for outdoor seating.

    Save your money. The ambiance is nice at this place, but the service was shockingly bad. Our waiter came twice (once to get our orders and next to bring the food). After that we never saw them again. The food was some of the worst I have eaten at restaurant. No one at our table finished their meals and at most we had a few bites. Ravioli looked and tasted like frozen pasta with some artificial filling. The food is expensive and inedible.

    We reserved an outdoor table but they had devoted the outside area to a large party from a conference at the hotel so we had to sit inside. It looks like every other hotel restaurant. The chairs were too low for my 5’2” friend, or the table was too high— she commented that she needed a booster seat. The food was too precious for its own good—a Caesar salad was actually broccolini with Caesar dressing and a lemon and an anchovy on the side. The wedge salad was almost 1/2 a head of iceberg but with not enough toppings to match the giant portion of lettuce. I had to decline the duck liver pate which was 4 small slices of pate on a bed of romaine lettuce with some goat cheese sprinkled on. The pate was not to my taste. The server thoughtfully removed it from the bill. Unfortunately we were celebrating our friend’s birthday— the experience was a disappointment all the way around with the exception of the server.

    When we arrived we were told there was only outdoor seating available. As the night progressed we were quite cold. Our waiter said he was unsure of why were told that and moved us inside. We were much happier but we would have appreciated sitting inside from the beginning. Our waiter John was awesome. Food was good, we'll be back

    Food was delicious but the service was horrible. We waited over an hour for soup as our first course. And then it took an extremely long time to get our check after we were done eating. The vibes were great and definitely a nice setting for dinner but for what they charge, their service should be way better. Very disappointed.

    We are here three nights in a row during our stay at Gurneys, Newport. The last night was the best of all. From the food to the waiter everything was superb. For our appetizers we had shrimp cocktail which were three jumbo sized shrimp on ice, they were very clean and fresh. We also had oysters which were clean and fresh, they were a smaller oyster not sure what type but the size was perfect. For the entrees we had the Wagyu and tuna which were on special and were phenomenal. The plating was on point too. Overall we had a great experience and would highly recommend.
