“We just enjoyed a late lunch that was absolutely delicious! The lobster bisque was a great starter but the lobster Mac and cheese was the BEST we’ve ever had. Giant chunks of lobster were buried amongst the creamy noodles. We shared the lobster dish and it was plenty. \nThe fresh cod/ Fish-n-chips was also excellent, flaky light white fish. We waited 45 mins for our table, while sipping hot spiced cider - the food was well worth the wait.”
“Very professional experience, we have been to Bouchard/ Chanterelle before and never disappointed. From entering the restaurant and being seated to leaving at the end of the evening. Chanterelle continues to add that little touch you don't see much of anymore. We were impressed with the food, the incredible service, and the ambiance. Max, our waiter, was great and very accommodating. I highly recommend trying Chanterelle.”
“Great place with friendly service. Drinks are terrific. Good place to watch the game. Highly recommend!”
“Had a hankering Sunday evening for an elite Lobstah Roll while in Newport, RI so I did a lil internet searching and Luke's was consistently at the top of the list. Checked out their menu online and saw they offered a Lobster Roll flight! SOLD! Off I went to find parking and get an order ASAP. Found Luke's on the corner on the Wharf and got to ordering with a quickness. Lobster Roll Sampler with three 2 oz half-rolls: lemon butter, spicy honey butter, and truffle butter w/ chips and a soft drink. Choice of Sea Salt or Sea Salt and Vinegar Kettle Chips, and choice of beverage. I got the Sea Salt and Vinegar (duh) and Blueberry Lemonade in a glass bottle. The lobster in their rolls comes cold, but for a $1 upcharge, you can get it warm, which is my preference. I also got an affordably priced Poppy Seed Slaw. Folks - these Lobster Rolls deserve top billing on "Best Of" lists. My fav might have been the truffle butter lobster roll. It adds something I never knew a lobster roll was missing, but they were all delectable. The roll makes the roll, though. Buttery sourdough with the perfect thin layer of crisp. All flavors were well-balanced and left me wanting more, even though it was plenty food to make a satisfying meal with maybe/maybe not room for dessert. I honestly didn't get any dessert nearby because I didn't want to lose the taste of what I just had! The Poppy Slaw was different, but in a good, not-too-different way. It was a little on the dryer side for my liking, but I liked it just the same. I am sorry to other local Lobster Roll vendors because I don't think I'll try anywhere new on my next visit. It'll be Luke's, no doubt. I might even make a special trip just for the rolls sooner rather than later, but that time I will try the chowder too!”

“Such amazing flavors was a taste bud explosion! Definitely an under rated restaurant in Newport!”
“We loved our experience at White Horse, our waitress was fantastic. So accommodating and attentive. The food was spectacular, and the atmosphere was perfect for an intimate date night. The music wasn’t too loud, so we could actually have a conversation. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting a fancy dinner while in Newport.”

“A special touch without a doubt the best Breakfast ever, the food and service was of a wonderful standard, Kellie and Dave made you feel as if you were part of their family great people if you like a full English Breakfast this is the place for you they have it all the Bacon, Sausage not forgetting the baked beans and the fantastic PG Tip Tea thought I was in Heaven. Kellie's Café hard to find but easy to remember”
“We enjoyed having breakfast at this wonderful place while in Newport, RI. The people who own it and those who work there are AMAZING, friendly, and take the time to talk to customers while keeping service at the top of their list. They (from the kitchen to the front door) look like they love working there and have created a loving family environment. Of course, the line was out the door and down the street, but that was okay because everyone enjoyed visiting each other. There is just one warning, the portions are enormous. You know when my husband can't finish it, it's a lot. 🤣”

“🌟🌟🌟🌟
Absolutely outstanding! I just had the most amazing BLT with coconut bacon at ROOT on Broadway in Newport — pure amazeballs. They never disappoint! The flavors were incredible, the coconut bacon was a total game-changer, and the vibe is always spot-on. I also grabbed some chocolate chip cookies for dessert and they were heavenly. If you’re in Newport and craving something delicious, creative, and plant-based, ROOT is the spot. Can’t wait to go back!”
“Beautiful spot to watch passing boats . Excellent meal . Swordfish was one of the best !”
“Ate here for the first time last night and it was amazing. Food was great, but the service was even better! Very friendly and accommodating.”

“Today we made a pilgrimage to Basil Yu’s restaurant, Yagi Noodles. My son happened to see that Basil had become a successful restaurateur while he was watching one of Guy Fieri’s shows. We had become acquainted with Basil when we were all involved with a Boy Scout Troop in Manchester NH. We were disappointed to discover that Basil wasn’t at the restaurant, however we got over it when we found out it was due to a commitment to a fundraiser for the James Beard Foundation. Basil, You weren’t there, but your food is delicious. You get the Merit Badge! You weren’t there, but your staff is spectacular! You get the Merit Badge! We wish you continued success!

“I can’t believe it took us so long to dine here. This is hands down the best food I’ve had in a very long time. Ambiance 10/10, service 10/10 and food 100/10. The street corn ravioli was out of this world. I also tried the peach & prosciutto bruschetta which was savory & sweet and just sooo good. I kept seeing this Bloody Mary type of cocktail going out so I had to order one. This drink was AMAZING. It was called “Caprese my name” which consisted of vodka, basil, tomato and get this…pasta water! Serve in a martini glass with a little mozzarella ball garnish. The most delicious drink I’ve ever had. This place is amazing and I highly recommend it if you’re in town!!!”
“Had to try this establishment as I’ve heard great things. Let it be known, there oven is gas and I do prefer wood fired, however the dough was good enough to almost make up for it. Surprisingly, it appears to be a Neopolitan pizza, however the pizza had a nice crisp to the crust, not huge, just enough to not make it a soft typical Neopolitan style pizza. So credit to them for being different and the crust was also soft and light, very nice combination. Btw, we opted for a simple Margherita, which is a baseline for judging any Neopolitan style pizza. All in all, we would definitely go back.”
“The best little wicket pub with such an atmosphere and a great bartender. Was there on a Wednesday afternoon got some GF tots and my daughter for the country tots and the husband for oysters and some top shelf whiskey! So much fun and some really great people. Can wait to head back!!!!”
“Just finished great meal. Huge lobster roll, high quality kids chicken and big beefy kids burger. I had the fish n chips which was amazing! Old Bay fries and what had to be a whole Cod! The best part was Peter N. He was very informative, quick in serving the kids which lets Mom and Dad relax. Such a great day and great meal.”
“Loved this little tucked away spot. The ambience and service was delightful! Also the happy hour oysters were some of the best I’ve had all summer . The fries and mussels with curry sauce is my new favorite dish and I had this dish a week ago and I’m pretty sure I’ve thought about it once a day since.
Hope to be back soon!”

“Our hostess, Natasha was friendly, attentive and gave us great food and drink recommendations. She was sensitive to our guest with food allergies and checked for each dish what she could eat safely. Special cocktails were unique and delicious. Food was amazing! Thank you for the ambiance, attentiveness and a great meal.”
“Best experience ever, food was amazing, our server Jack was spot on and everyone was warm and welcoming to us and our puppy Opi who was treated like a queen ! Thank you, we will definitely be back and highly recommend Diego’s Newport!!!”

“Steph and the team at scratch were SUPERB! Our catering order was perfect (tho we were sad the croissant machine was down) every thing was piping hot (or nice an cool). Everything was SOOO good. Ordering was easy, Steph ensured we had a great variety and enough to feed the post-wedding crowd. We did have breakfast here and it was stellar! Any event you need catered, be sure to check Steph and the team out. You will, NOT be disappointed!”
“I stopped in to try Newport Sandwich Shop with new chef and menu. Oh my goodness, Eggplant Caprese Sandwich was so delicious. It reminded me of my grandmother's homemade recipe with thinly sliced eggplant and homemade marinara. Fried Mozzarella was also yummy. There's a deli counter with fresh chicken, tuna salad and potato salad. Soups made fresh daily. Fair prices. I'm happy to have this shop next door to the IRYS. Very friendly staff and inviting atmosphere.”
“I have nothing but respect for these people. We were doing utility work today on the restaurant and when we were leaving, they sat us down and treated us to a lunch free of charge. This is definitely a place that everyone should check out because people like this deserve all the business they can get ! Thank you again!”

“We were vacationing in Newport from Wisconsin and stopped in at Cappy’s. Sue the bartender was friendly and a wonderful bartender. The owner Joe, what can I say….what a guy! Joe saw us walking to our Airbnb and yelled at us on the street asking when we were headed back home. Joe is a gem of a bartender. He has a gift of gab and can hand out the bs too. Nice local establishment with friendly customers and bartenders. We had Dan as a bartender too and he was a friendly, great guy! This place reminds us of our local pub at home where everybody knows your name. Thank you for your great hospitality! It made our vacation so much more enjoyable. Thank you!! LuAnn & Steve”
“Mori Sushi is a wonderful experience. Chef Choi and Kim are warm and welcoming. The staff is very attentive. The sushi and sashimi dishes are works of art. The quality of the food is the best. We love going there and are delighted they have greater dining capacity to share their talent! Congratulations on the new location up in Bellevue Gardens! See you again soon!”
“Came here for Mother’s Day and our table came complete with a picture of my family in a frame. What a nice touch! The food was delicious and our waitress was perfect. She knew exactly what we were going to need having two kids under 4 with us. This is my favorite place in Newport and they hit the mark yet again.”
“Went for lunch today with my daughter for her 20th birthday lunch. The food was beyond delicious. The staff was super friendly and attentive! I 100 percent recommend everyone to check this place out!!!! Already looking forward to the next time my daughter and I go!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️”
“I went to Ben’s from a recommendation from a friend and today I was near Newport so I stopped by. It’s a small hole in the wall place but with plenty of seating and Ben’s delivered some great hot dogs. I had 3 different dogs and they were all fantastic so if you like hot dogs I promise you’ll love Ben’s chili dogs and I suggest getting the chili dog with cheese as it’s fantastic!!!”

“We ordered a wrap platter from Marco’s for my sister’s bachelorette weekend, and everything from start to finish was perfect. The ordering and pickup process was smooth and stress-free, and the wraps themselves were absolutely unbelievable – fresh, flavorful, and a huge hit with our group. I wish I had snapped a picture because they looked as good as they tasted! We’ll definitely be back – thank you for making our weekend even more special.”
“Ney Hall's Clam Chowder, served for lunch every Friday, is some of the best in New England and an incredible bargain with their prices. I'm reluctant to post this review because I don't want it to get so crowded they run out before I get some, but I don't want to keep the magical experience from others.”
“Lovely outdoor ambiance, we sat on the corner outside and watched the town wake up. Subtle queer vibes before 8am. Then the line got long. Jasmine green tea was pretty good (7/10) We really liked the decaf coffee (9/10) what a treat. The regular coffee was not noteworthy, but fine. Nitro’s is much better. Great breakfast sandwich, grab and go ready!”
“7.26.25 The beer and the venue are a 5, but the burgers & wings were just not good at all. They serve more than just beer if beer isn't your thing. This place is just amazing. Huge outdoor and indoor seating. The outdoors also has lawn seating with Adirondack chairs besides the 2 level patio/decks. Everything is new and modern, and the landscaping is immaculate. Huge parking lot, too.”
“I went today with my friend and was promptly helped by a person named Tyler (they had long purple hair) who had been cleaning up but stopped when we came in to take our order. They were quick when making our order, and even when one of the food window fell inward he was quick to call for help while helping us. Great employee. Thank you Tyler!”
“I visited the Portsmouth location for the second time this morning and this is a perfect first date spot imo. The large wraparound deck is so cute & cozy, like a farmhouse porch. & the coffee 🤩 I had a tiramisu latte last time, a cherry Garcia latte this time- I was not disappointed either time, the flavors were accurate without being overwhelming or weakening the espresso, & oh so delicious. The food is even better; the attention to detail & balance of flavor in the dishes is off the charts. I recommend the avocado toast or whipped feta plate, and if you’re not into coffee, their teas and lemonades are just as amazing.”
“Absolutely delectable! Every single thing was perfect from the bread & tasty olive oil, to the main meal. Service was excellent. Atmosphere is comfortable & homey. Perfect from start to finish, nice staff & absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!”
“Perfect double date night spot! Menu has something for everyone & everything we tried was delicious. Fun cocktail menu & extensive beer selection. Staff was friendly & attentive. Will definitely return.”
“Beautiful cozy atmosphere (especially during the holidays!) and great food every time! Highly recommend.”
“food is outstanding, been here a few times and is been consistently great 🤙”

“I was visiting Newport and decided to stop by your shop with a friend to get ice cream around 4pm on August 31st when we pointed out to the young guy making the order that he gave me the wrong cone. After pointing out that we asked for waffle cone he became very rude and started throwing things around and even swore. Needless to say we will not be returning there again.”

“I had a fabulous experience last night at Fermentation Class at Forty 1 North! This is a culinary experience not to be missed, attracting locals and visitors alike. I attend each time I am in town and it is always a friendly, welcoming, and enjoyable event, with each class being different and a great way to spend the evening. Each of the five course presentations is an exceptionally composed small bite with the perfect wine pairing! All of the selections last night were outstanding! The time, expertise, and thought that goes into the preparation and pairing is obvious and appreciable. Abbey is a very gracious and informative host, providing interesting details about the wine selections. The Oval Bar is lovely and creates the perfect setting. This is a food and wine experience well worth experiencing again and again whether as a couple, with a friend or small group, or enjoying solo. Wonderful atmosphere, food, and wine! I thoroughly enjoy each unique Fermentation Class every time I attend. Seating is limited, so be sure to make a reservation. Cheers!”
“Absolutely great food and service. Dined last Saturday evening with two of our teen and preteen grandchildren. All of us enjoyed our meals and the service was on point. This next point deserves mentioning as it speaks to the culture of the establishment: When my granddaughter became ill (NOT food related), the manager came over immediately to help comfort her… she brought hot tea and took her to more private quarters to relax until her discomfort passed. We were impressed and remain grateful for the compassion and level of care exhibited. We will continue to visit again and again in the future. Many thanks!!!”
“We enjoyed having breakfast at this wonderful place while in Newport, RI. The people who own it and those who work there are AMAZING, friendly, and take the time to talk to customers while keeping service at the top of their list. They (from the kitchen to the front door) look like they love working there and have created a loving family environment. Of course, the line was out the door and down the street, but that was okay because everyone enjoyed visiting each other. There is just one warning, the portions are enormous. You know when my husband can't finish it, it's a lot. 🤣”
“I am proud to recommend Mrs Craig Vanessa for a selfless and reliable investment service. I was constantly looking for a reliable platform to invest and my friend introduced me to her platform and I realized this is the best platform to invest on because she maintains discipline in her investment relationship and strategies to ensure the complete transparency and credibility of her investors. She helped me gained $16,000 with just a capital of $2,000. If you want to be financially successful invest with her ASAP. Contact her via WhatsApp through the number on her Facebook: Mrs Craig Vanessa”
“5 stars all around! This place is delicious! Off-season, Wednesday night October, and it was packed. Despite the crowd, our server was attentive and helpful. Highly recommended daily oyster selection and the clam chowder. I enjoyed the featured halibut…. Not sure how often that makes the menu, but if you see it, try it! And save room for the snowball from hell. It’s worth it! Met the GM who graciously gave us a tour and treated us like celebrities. I wish we had more time here… I’d eat here everyday!”
“It was delicious. The food was really good and the atmosphere was so comfortable. Our bartender Rowen was on top of it. The kitchen went out of their way to make our experience the best. Oooh and the tiramisu was so yummy. Thank you all for a wonderful meal.”
