Outdoor patio is especially pretty. Our waiter took very good care of us. Menu is limited, but food was tasty and well presented.

Celebrated a birthday outside on patio. Lovely service. Amazing meal. One of the best places to go in Newport. Will continue celebrating here.

Absolutely extraordinary Service. I ordered the shrimp cocktail and my friend ordered a chicken salad, we also ordered the garlic fries I believe overall the food was really good. The Customer Service was super friendly, very attentive. Definitely recommend for anyone to try it out

We love BBC for lunch or anytime, but our last visit was disappointing. Service was lacking. Sat at table for 10 minutes before server came for drink order. Server never returned after our meal was finally served to reorder drinks. Very disappointing service for my mom's 91st birthday celebration. We were only a party of 6.

Such a memorable day! Live music, delicious late lunch and delectable dessert! The day was beautiful to be outside and enjoy the views.

The food, views and atmosphere were lovely. However the service was inefficient and incomplete. For a longtime leader in classic service and high-end customer care like the Bay Club, this was a stunning disappointment. The shortcomings ranged from needing to flag our server to order our dinner more than 1/2 an hour after we'd ordered our appetizers, to a 15 minute delay between the 1st and 3rd main dish arriving at the table. The wine we ordered when we ordered dinner came after the 3rd plate finally arrived. The server never came back to top off our wine glasses. We had to flag her down to ask for more water, which never came, and we had to ask for new place settings that were cleared with our appetizers and never replaced. Do better, BBC! Your service last night was worse than we would have expected at a moderately priced chain...

Fantastic place to get away from tourists crowds and enjoy the nautical feel of being by the yachts. Very good experience for breakfast.

Great experience celebrating my birthday at A+O. We ordered the artichoke which was okay, hamachi which was fresh, the shrimp cocktail everyone enjoyed. I ordered the steak entree and it was delicious. They brought us a birthday dessert at the end which was decadent yet airy. Overall it was a very nice meal.

I like how this place keeps parking, serving simple and effective. Instead of going to places that have rooftop bar, make parking complicated, put price on the tables, I would recommend going to A+O which makes everything easier adding to a great experience.

We booked a table outside overlooking the marina, but when we arrived for dinner we were seated inside due to a realtor's function in the outside seating area. So that just tanked the meal. Food was fine.

I went to this restaurant with two friends. Two of us ordered the steak salad, and we both got sick almost immediately afterward with the exact same symptoms. My symptoms lasted until the next morning. I called the restaurant to speak with a manager and left a message simply to raise a concern, hoping they’d make sure no one else gets served the same dish. No one ever returned my call, which shows a serious lack of care or accountability.

Beyond that, the service was very slow, and the food wasn’t even worth the wait. The steak was overly salty and just not good. I will never go back. Very disappointed.

The food was amazing I ment to share my appetizer but it was so good I ordered another for my boyfriend. I finished my food and wanted more but was stuffed and couldn't go back for more. Everyone was friendly and the view was amazing too.

We ordered the mussels and a side of caesar salad. Both were tasty, but the mussels were tiny. I would probably try something else next time. For the entrees we had the fish tacos and hamburger. The fish tacos were spot on and with the homemade tortilla, it made the experience that much better. My husbands burger was well done (ordered medium), and didn't complain...he just ate it. The bacon jam is a must! The service was just ok. We were seated for 25 min. before our waiter came by...We ordered drinks and appetizers. We were also ready to order or main dishes, but he said he'll be right back. That was about 20 min. later. He seemed pre-occupied, but at least he was pleasant. Dylan, the one that fills glasses with water was the most talkative and attentive. He really should be a server! The outdoor seating was fantastic. Perfect weather! The live music was a little loud, but he only played for 15 min while we were there. Overall, we'd go back because everything was good and the scenery was great!
