French Restaurants near Tiverton, RI

“Outstanding food. Great service. Ample bar menu. Cozy atmosphere. Always return.“

“What fun! A small, informal restaurant with authentic French food, thanks to the French chef. The specials — like rack of lamb or monkfish — are especially good. It’s BYOB, so you can bring and enjoy a bottle of fine wine without having to pay a huge mark-up. If you forget to bring wine, you can pop over to the wine store just two doors down, on the other side of the ice cream shop. But you won’t have room for ice cream after a delicious dinner at Plouf Plouf.“

“We had brunch on a Sunday afternoon. Not very may people, so it was very quiet. Excellent service. We were greeted upon arrival. Food and drink were both excellent. We would have appreciated some nice, fresh French baguette slices with fresh creamery butter upon arrival. I also suggest toast with the omelet (maybe French country bread) and a drizzle of vinaigrette on the small bit of lettuce on the omelet plate. Enjoyed the homemade soda...very light, flavorful and refreshing. I would like to try the pear hard cider next time. Also, twp crepes instead of one would have been better for the price of the lemon ricotta crepe dish. The French onion soup ( gratinee) was so delicious and our favorite out of the 3 dishes we shared. We enjoyed the lemon ricotta crepe ( needs a little more lemon flavor) and the ratatouille omelet. The potato mixture on the side was good but needed a bit more seasoning. The ratatouille was good, but an addition of goat cheese would have made it memorable. Overall, very good.“

“Clarke Cooke House in Newport, Rhode Island, is a popular spot, especially on weekends in the summer, so reservations are a must. I visited with a group of five on a Saturday in August, and it was packed. I ordered the mussels in a white wine garlic sauce, which were delicious, paired with the petite frites. However, my mother-in-law had a less-than-ideal experience with the salmon toast; they were out of cream cheese and charged her extra to substitute grilled onions, which didn't go over well. The rest of the group enjoyed their meals. While the prices are on the higher side, it’s expected for Newport. The location is fantastic, but the interior is a bit tight, especially during busy times. Overall, it's a nice spot to visit, just be prepared for some trade-offs.“

“Beautiful owners represented in their beautiful and fancy creations.“
