Clearly a local haunt based on who we same come through and where we got the recommendation. The food was great (loved the curry soup!). Definitely sit at the bar adjacent to the cooking area to watch the process, all steam cooking, exclusively electric, and the owners are very friendly.

A perfect dinner.I have never felt so acknowledged and known by a restaurant owner/server. The other server was also very kind but after staring at the Sun that was the woman seemingly in charge. Wow. I hope she is there when you visit. Call ahead to ask if she is there! It will still be a great time but go visit again if you can! Her presence alone awards Newport their moniker as "Friendliest City." Of course I won't expect her to be sunny everyday, because how can anyone burn that bright!I had saved my bread and wine, waiting for the seafood stew to arrive yet when it arrived I forgot all about my wine and bread and was enraptured by every sip of the spoon!The atmosphere was perfect for me! ❤ The door would open and everyone would turn to watch the newcomers be so dearly welcomed in! And when we left, she opened the front door and called out "Take care Alex."Again you may not get that experience, but if you do... ooof... it will last you well into the night!

After a long day shopping, the sweet, smokey and spicy cioppino hit the spot! The service was friendly and it was very comfortable inside.

While on vacation in the area, we stopped in for dinner and were so pleased with this restaurant. My wife had the cioppino, which she loved—it was so full of seafood and had a very nice broth. All of the seafood had been unshelled and shucked. No shells, no waste! I had the snapper which was also cooked to perfection. The server/owner was so accommodating and friendly towards us. She recommended places to see and things to do during our stay. Highly recommended!!

Absolutely delicious cioppino! Most tourists come to Newport with a bowl of clam chowder in mind, but I think this is the bowl that people will remember fondly. Warm and friendly service. All sorts of fun sharky knick-knacks adorn the walls. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for good quality seafood.

Cozy, inviting little place across from Agate Beach. The hostess was extremely nice and helpful. We did carry out twice during our stay. Everything was packaged very nicely. Piping hot. Italian bread and butter thrown in. Ordered the seafood gumbo both times. Not New Orleans style with a thick dark roux. This is more brothy. Everything was cooked perfectly. Very generous amount of seafood. Can't wait to go back.

First time back here since the move from the Bay front location. We were so happy to come have the Cioppino again! Their twist on seafood is always a win. Great atmosphere, great service. This was our favorite dinner spot in Newport for years and will hopefully continue in the new spot.
Wow just wow! From the moment you walk through the door, the wonderful steamed seafood butter and garlic aromas fill the air. The vibe is cozy and family oriented. Karen and her team go over and above for each and every customer. It will be a diner to remember. Nothing but good vibes and warmth from this must visit Restaurant! Great date night or family and friends gathering. The bar is also a great place for the solo travelers who have a hankering for delicious seafood and cocktails!

We had a fantastic dinner. Combo pan roast was amazing and full of seafood and the fish entree was prepared to perfection. This review would not be complete without mentioning our hostess Carin aka Irene...she was so welcoming and fun (surely a pirate in a former life)!

I don't remember what my boyfriend ordered but I got the garlic linguini with shrimp and it was delicious. Service is amazing, it's family owned and such a good ambiance to eat in. Decorations are subtle and dainty and the waitress has such a beautiful personality.

Small tucked away place that you got to look for. They cook all their fish through old time steamers, nothing fried.. You can sit at their bar and watch the cook.Small operation but big on Food. We had Cioppino - portions were large, price was reasonable and the "lazy man's" Cioppino was the best we had on the coast. We will be back!
