Great location on the water. Small portions but expertly cooked. Best seared tuna I've ever had. Feels like the chefs are trying to turn a Newport classic into a James Beard award winning spot.
Excellent service from friendly, conversational staff.
The worst of it is seeing the cocktail menu. Drinks are very pricey, but well made. Can't fault a business for needing a profit margin.

Awesome tent area outdoors with heaters too. Thought prices were a little steep for what we ordered, however it was tasty. Great service would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Overall ok! I was nervous because some of the reviews were iffy but my husband and I didn’t have any issues. We made a reservation ahead of time and were promptly seated. Staff and patrons (that weren’t seated) all were wearing masks and tables were spaced away from each other. Two stars off because the menu didn’t have many seafood options which I found unusual. I was definitely expecting more! I ended up ordering the lobster roll and fries and while the fries were half soggy and half crunchy the lobster roll was good (not great). My husband enjoyed his chicken burger but his fries were also either soggy or crunchy.
View was beautiful and they have a tent or deck with umbrella seating as well.

If you're in Newport, you have to try the seafood. What better place to do that than on the wharf, right next to the sea, in a local bar and restaurant. Good drinks. Good food. Great service. While there, take a moment to walk to the docks. Totally worth it!

Terrible service terrible food!! Came to enjoy a nice dinner by the water and it was absolutely horrible. I gave it a chance after reading the reviews but that was a mistake! Every review you read is 100% accurate. Food was NOT good and service was even worse! Waited 10min after receiving our food to get some silverware and our second drink never even came. Tables around us were also so frustrated cause no one was even coming to take a drink order. Will NEVER come here again.

Hosted a pre wedding dinner for guest in town. Could not have been happier!!! The food was excellent as well as the service. Reggie went above and beyond, with all the issues we had to overcome due to covid restrictions, to make this event PERFECT! I would highly recommend hosting an event with them.
