    Service was outstanding. The hostess was friendly and accommodating. Our waiter’s wine suggestion was also outstanding; he knows his wines. The food was very good. The restaurant’s ambience is very nice and you have a great view of the harbor. I recommend requesting a window table. My wife and I dined during Newport’s restaurant week. Expensive but highly recommended.

    We went to The Grill at Forty 1 North during resteraunt week and it was delicious! The menu had options for every type of appetite and from appetizer to desert the food was outstanding. I recommend a late lunch when the room is quiet and the direct view of the water is breathtaking. We hadn't been to Forty 1 North a few years, so glad we went back, it will now be a regular stop on our Newport dining rotation.

    Went to enjoy Newport Fall Restaurant Week, and Forty 1 did not disappoint! The choices were all great. I personally had the French onion soup, and the salmon entree. The salmon was thicker than I expected (more like a steak than a filet), but was prepared well. I maybe would have like a small starch with it instead of just greens. And I had the maple salted caramel creme brûlée, which was amazing!

    We took advantage of Newport Restaurant week to try a restaurant we haven’t been to. We were very happy with our choice of 41 North. The very stylish decor gave a good first impression. The staff were very welcoming. The restaurant week menu had some very nice choices. Any bottle of wine on the menu was 50%off- that was a fantastic surprise! We were able to order a more expensive bottle which certainly enhanced our dinner. Every course was delicious- from the amazing onion soup to the perfectly cooked salmon to the decadent crème brûlée. While all this was good what really made this a special experience was our waiter Srdan. He was the consummate professional, very personable and clearly enjoys what he does. We discussed wines since that is an interest of ours and in a nice touch he brought a separate tasting of one of his favorite wines. It was one of those special touches that makes you feel valued as a customer. We thoroughly enjoyed our fine dining experience and look forward to returning.

    Drinks were good but wine glasses were all dirty around the rim. Food was good as well. Service was poor, of course I understand they were busy but took over a half hour to even order and we had to flag waitress down. Probably wouldn't go back

    My first time at 41 North and I could not have been happier. Our waiter was excellent and attentive, the table maintenance was impeccable. Their restaurant week menu was delicious + the value of half of their entire list bottles wine list sealed the deal for me! Thanks for your hospitality 41 North!

    Live close enough to walk to The Grill at 41 North and so glad we gave it another try. Had been here previously during the summer months, found the outside bar to be fun, lively with expensive drinks. Dinner just so-so. This time we ate inside on a cooler fall evening at the Grill. It was restaurant week and we ordered from that menu. We had the French onion soup, wedge salad, seared salmon, steak frites and Creme brûlée. We have to say the entire meal was absolutely wonderful! Loved the ambience of the Grill and our server was excellent, very attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. Only negative is the hostess we checked in with…zero personally, stiff, and went we cracked a joke about eating outside (it was cold out) she ignored the comment and asked still or sparking water. Have to add, she did not return with either. Maybe she was new but regardless not a good start. Our waitress made up for it and again, the meal/and inviting ambiance will make us return. Cocktails on the pricey side at $20 each.

    41North in. Report, RI is one of my favorite and yesterday I have another reason to love it more! I booked a table for two at 5:15pm so we could enjoy the weather and sun on a late fall day. Too my surprise the seating was outdoors on the docks surrounded by boats and water in a sheltered outdoors bar. The wait staff was a collection of international students in all whites. There was little wait for service so we took our time and soaked in the sunset which is fabulous in fall. I ordered filet and my guest ordered lobster risottos. The filet was so tender it literally melted in your mouth. My sides were a tomato salad and wild mushrooms. My guest shared sides and we drank beer and cocktails. This time of year is the most special and Newport is away from the hustle and bustle of big cities but there is just enough of a crowd to feel you have been to an outing or special occasion. Lively crowd in the harbor with live music or quiet people watching. A can’t miss time in autumn!

    Hands down worst restaurant experience in my life! Not family or child friendly, waiter was discriminatory against my family. Food came out wrong, when politely communicating this waiter wouldn’t answer / reply. He laughed and then walked away only to talk about me to other staff. I ordered gelato and sorbet for kids separately, they were all melted together. I asked to separate and he brought same gelato and sorbet back out even more melted into each other. I then said my 4 year old wouldn’t be eating that it was all mixed and he just laughted and mumbled the chef did it. Then he turned to his co workers to laugh and talk about me In front of people. Completely unprofessional and unacceptable. Was treated completely different from tables without kids.

    HORRIFIC service, unbelievably noisy even in the outdoor seating area (which is not actually outdoors, it’s more of an enclosed tent with heat). The waiter was inattentive, slow, and idiotic…salad came after we were finished with our meal. We were seated next to the bar and could see our drinks sitting there while he was on his phone. Just avoid. There’s much better restaurants elsewhere.

    In addition to the fact that it is too noisy, service was questionable. It took them 20+ minutes to come to our table and take orders, after inquiring twice if anyone was going to serve us.

    Not many choices on the menu and they could not accommodate lactose free or gluten free. Very expensive and most meals are a la carte so you need to also purchase sides, but they come for the table so if the other person you done with doesn’t want the same side, then you need to purchase two at $12 each. And parking is $20 even if you are dining there. Would not return.

    We had brunch on a Saturday early morning, there were only a few tables occupied so it was quiet. Had the basic breakfast, the homemade sausage was great and the potatoes were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. Husband had the stuffed croissant, great croissant, crispy bacon, serving was large and included potatoes.
