We came here for dinner while staying in Newport for the weekend. Nice old school vibe, had a live singer when we were there Saturday night. Friendly staff, and good drink selections. We have a couple prime rib eyes that were cooked perfectly pink with a nice seared crust. Some oyster Rockefeller that tasted fresh, good flavors. The white truffle mac n cheese was done well, and the au gratin potatoes great with the steak. Had to finish it off with the chocolate cake. Very rich and decadent. We were not disappointed. It is right next to the pier, so you can take a little stroll after dinner if you'd like. And plenty of other bars around if you wanted to have some drinks and listen to some music.
Amazing old school establishment that's been there forever. Excellent culinary dishes and outstanding service. Great location just across Newport Pier and beach Joey was an amazing valet, so courteous and friendly. My birthday celebration was exquisite
In the 7 years I’ve been frequenting this place I have not once had a bad or even mediocre experience. Everything is done thoughtfully: the service is excellent, the decor/ambiance/vibes are cozy, warm and inviting. The food and drinks are seriously next-level. If it’s your first time, please go on a Friday or a Saturday night, get yourself a seat at the bar and enjoy live music, a perfect (slightly dirty) Hendricks martini with 2 blue cheese olives and an order of escargot. You’re welcome.
Great place for steaks, seafood, and sides. (Pretty sure the cocktails are great too, but we didn’t have any.) We went on a Saturday night in July and it was really, really busy in the area - so busy that it took about 20 minutes to get through the traffic and pedestrians in the last two blocks. There’s valet parking at the door, and the doorman checked to make sure we had a reservation just to enter. The interior is dark and classy, and the views of the ocean at sunset are awesome. My wife said her blackened swordfish was the best she ever had! I really enjoyed the prime rib eye steak and au gratin potatoes. However, the piano player in the northwest end of the room was shouting his songs, and everyone at the bar had to be even louder. The result was a really loud experience, and we watched several parties be seated near the piano only to ask for a quieter table. Still, we had a great meal.
First time here yesterday. Colyn took great care of us and we enjoyed the meal very much :) We will definitely be back!
