3 stars because the drinks and apps were good. The oysters were probably the best oysters I have ever had. However, the entrees were disappointing. I got the hot lobster roll, the meat was so tough that I could hardly break it apart with my teeth. My husband ordered one of the specials and said the fish wasn’t fresh and came out dry. Bummer
This place is a hidden gem in Newport! The food is always fresh, delicious, great quality, and so reasonably priced compared to other restaurants around the area. Did I mention the daily buck a shuck from 12-2 for a $1.50 and all day half off apps and buck a shuck oysters and little necks on Tuesdays? They have everything from on the menu from land to sea!
Went for lunch and, with no wait at all, we got a cozy table by the front window, with a heat vent under the bench seat. We sat in the bar downstairs, now realizing there was a dining area upstairs, until we went up to use the restroom. We ordered a salmon BLT and a lobster grilled cheese, both of which were delicious! Service with great, staff were friendly. Will absolutely go back.
