   The White House Tavern did not disappoint! If these walls could talk! You can feel, see and smell the history in the oldest restaurant in America. Plus the food was amazing and the service to match! Perfect evening on a cold night with the fires going. Highly recommend!

   Nice cozy spot for a special-occasion dinner. Very romantic atmosphere. Our server was very nice and attentive. The food was expensive, but very good. I would highly recommend the scallop dinner. The only improvement I would suggest, is to fill the water glasses more often or give each table a pitcher of water. I was dying for more water by the end of dinner.

   We had an early supper and enjoyed very prompt and courteous service. I could have used a slightly lower volume on the jazz music being played but otherwise the ambiance and level of noise in the room was excellent. The food was interesting and the wine list outstanding.

   We go to the WHT once a year, and it always a treat! A large part of the experience is the historical ambiance-we were seated in a little alcove on the first floor, and we felt like we had stepped back in time to the 17th century. Food superb as always, I had swordfish done to a turn, the best cooked fish I have EVER had in a restaurant. Nice cool jazz music. Excellent service.

   We were seated at a nice table in the main dining room but chose to move to the bar to dine as we were late diners and felt the ambiance was a bit more lively in the bar area. The staff was very accommodating. Once at the bar we were tended to quickly and our bartender was extremely helpful and although we were in later we never felt hurried or rushed. The food was exceptional. Crab cake was perfectly cooked, great flavors and most importantly was a crab cake, not a bread cake with crab. My wife had the scallops and again perfectly prepared and the wild mushroom farro was amazing. I enjoyed the Beef Wellington, temp was spot on and very tender and flavorful. Perigeaux sauce brought it all together beautifully. Thank you for a wonderful first night in Newport.

   We've dined at the White Horse Tavern many times over the years. Fantastic restaurant. The service is outstanding. The staff are extremely attentive and make you feel comfortable. The food is excellent. My only bit of constructive feedback is we asked to have one meal plated for two as we had a wedding tasting for our daughter earlier in the day and we're not overly hungry. The meal was not plated for two.

    In town for a business trip. Ordered clam chowder, fried squash blossoms, duck confit, crispy pork belly, Brussel sprouts, sauteed greens. Everything was fantastic! Clam chowder was 1st time having Rhode Island style (no creamy soup but broth based) and it was great! Fried squash blossoms were a special - stuffed with (I think) asparagus and cheese with spicy aioli - very tasty. Duck confit was wonderful - not greasy and very well paired with root veggies. Pork belly was a small (1"x2" piece maybe?) but not fatty like some is and very tasty. Brussel spouts were not too sweet and nicely charred. Sauteed greens - swiss chard and nicely done with sauteed garlic. Overall, we were very very pleased with our meal and affordable wine bottle pricing!

    This is our second time at Whitehorse. We absolutely love it. I had the Beef 🥩 Wellington for the second time. Amazing dish. The staff was lovely, the service great. Atmosphere wonderful especially in a town where most restaurants have the music way to loud. A must go!

    Our server was very attentive. The food was delicious and high quality. The cocktails were some of the best we’ve had. It was a cold evening and the large 17th century fireplace made the room so cozy. We are history fans, as well, so we loved the ambiance and decor. We will definitely be back!

    Very cool historic place to visit and enjoy a meal. Service here is excellent. Food is ok for the price. I expect more from an establishment such as this. Cold french fries with steak? I expect a bit higher quality given menu prices. Overall a good experience but not a great value.

    This was our second visit to the White Horse Tavern. As at our last visit the service and ambiance were awesome. Both the beet salad and crab cake appetizers were very good. Timing of food delivery was off. My crab cake arrived substantially before my companion’s beet salad. The Duck was excellent but my filet was over cooked. I asked for medium rare and got well done. Not what I expected at $52. I did not say anything about the steak as there’s nothing worse than waiting while one person has their meal. Especially, when we’d already waited because of the appetizers mixed arrival. Bread pudding and affogato desserts were delicious. This visit was not as enjoyable as the last. Maybe it was just a bad night in the kitchen.
