Grills in Newport, RI

“First time here and a very enjoyable dinner. Started with the mussels appetizer, which was amazing. The mussels were enormous and were cooked perfectly in a delicious broth served with crisp sourdough. Probably the best mussels we've ever had, and we've had a lot. Entrees were strip loin steak with steakhouse onion rings, and salmon with stir-fried vegetables. Steak was cooked to a perfect medium rare. It could have been trimmed a bit better because there were a couple of chewy parts, but taste was excellent. Onion rings were served as 3 giant rings but were quite good along with the dressing accompanying. Salmon was tasty and cooked exactly as ordered. The stir-fried vegetables were a bit spicy and had a bit too much soy sauce flavor. Dessert was introduced as a new item that they are adding to the menu, strawberry-rhubarb creme brulee.It was excellent. Service was generally excellent. Prices were high, but the location is spectacular and we enjoyed a beautiful sunset. The acoustics of the room are a bit strange because conversations around us seemed to be quite loud and it made it hard to have our own conversation and to hear the server speaking.“
