I'm so happy you enjoyed our menu enough to come back for more, LaTanya! Can't wait to see what you decide to get next time. - Charlie, General Manager
It was very easy to make a reservation and I received a text confirmation. We were seated promptly and the waiter Patrick was very friendly and attentive. The food was excellent and although a little pricey, it is typical of Newport restautants. We would definitely return for a special occasion.
Business response:
Glad we could get you seated and served so quickly, Patricia! It's always wonderful to hear our team did a great job, and I'll be sure to let Patrick know how much you appreciated his help throughout the night. We can't wait to help you celebrate the next special occasion, and we wish you the best in the meantime! - Charlie, General Manager
The raw bar and cocktails were great! The calamari fra diavolo was soggy so we asked to redo the order but separate the sauce from the calamari, it turned out better. Oyster stew lacked salt. Ordered the mussels in white wine broth but not much of the white wine broth was left and mussels seemed a bit over cooked so some of them were dry... They were really busy so maybe they were understaffed? The service was good. This place gets phenomenal reviews so I was expecting more... Maybe next time...
Business response:
So happy we could get that calamari fixed for you guys, Annie, and that you enjoyed our cocktails and raw bar, too! I'm sorry a few of the dishes you tried fell a little short, but I really hope we'll get the chance to live up to those expectations next time you're in the mood for seafood. - Charlie, General Manager
