    Well for celebrating both of our birthdays we were a little disappointed because my fish was over cooked and the shrimp cocktail were very wet and not fresh Our waitress was outstanding though and the manager did come over to apologize for the food We love your restaurants so we will be back as we dine frequently at all of them with the Newport restaurant group

    Food was great Service was ok. I think our waitress checked on us like once but after she gave us our meal, we didn’t see her again. We had a fussy baby and was wanting to leave but had to stay there longer than we wanted to due to having to wait for a long time for our waitress to come to our table.

    We got there a little early, maybe 10 minutes or so and were told to come back at the exact time. Food was good, though the chowder was not hot. Not a lot of food for the money but that was expected as we’ve been before. We would go again.

    The evening was wonderful. The peonies they gave us at the table were such a nice touch. They made my night. 💕
