    This is our favorite restaurant in Newport. Every meal we’ve enjoyed here has been superb and they make a good old fashioned. Tried the apple dumplings for the first time—delish! You just can’t go wrong at The Alley. Hardest thing is deciding which entree to select because you each will be awesome. Good vibe, wait staff is always very attentive.
