    Everything was spectacular, from the crab cakes to the center cut filet (I recommend the bourbon cream as the sauce). Service was great. We went two days before Christmas so it was not very crowded. Great place for a special occasion.

    It comes down to the service not being good enough to justify the high prices, and the food not being good enough to justify them, either.

    It’s always a spectacular experience. Don’t mind paying for an expensive dinner if the service experience is worth it and it is

    Our Server Ryan was terrific. Answered all our food questions and he actually knew about wines as we asked. Our food was excellent as usual. The Prime Rib Sunday night addition is amazing!!!

    Best restaurant in Newport, outstanding food, outstanding drinks, and outstanding service. As an example of the attention to detail, the waiter even replaced my wife’s white napkin with a black napkin (we didn’t ask for this) so that she would not get white lint on her dark pants!
