We were off a cruise ship and looking for lunch. This restaurant looked interesting, and gave us a very friendly greeting. We ordered two pints of Harpoon Ale, and decided to share a lobster roll and fries. Very tasty and made a nice light lunch. Michelle R did a great job looking after us.

Every year my granddaughters look forward to tea time in Newport. This year our pick was the Viking.. What a disappointment. The bread was stale, tea was limited, and the scones are long gone. The setting where the tea is located is a cheap looking room but the price for tea was expensive for such a low quality!

We came here wanting an informal al fresco meal heavy on the lobster. We got it. My wife had a whole lobster while I opted for the lobster bisque and a lobster roll. We loved it all and the staff was excellent.

Food is always excellent with a good variety of steaks and seafood, canât beat the filet mignon or the twice baked potato ! Excellent wine selection. Reservations are a must !Thank you Teryl I!

My boyfriend took me here for my birthday dinner recently while vacationing in Newport. We had late reservations (9:15 pm), but we felt unrushed and relaxed the entire time even when everyone else had gone. The service was impeccable and the food was amazing. I had the filet, which was cooked perfectly, and bf had the rigatoni bolognese which was made with lamb and he loved it! Wine suggestions were made and appreciated as well. It was dark out so we did not get to see the view, however we opted to sit inside the cozy dining room anyway so that was fine. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant if you are ever in Newport and want a delicious fine dining experience in a beautiful restaurant.Thanks Trisha! We are thrilled we could be part of your Newport birthday celebration and happy to hear you both enjoyed. We are honored to have earned your recommendation and hope you come back soon. You need to see our view too! Gratefully, Dan Fischer General Manager

A group of four friends visited Joâs for a midweek casual dinner. It was a very good experience. They were offering three course off-season midweek Specials Menu selections for a very reasonable price and we all indulged. Each of us was very pleased with our meal. Drinks were large, wine offered with the Special menu was very good, not swill. Desserts were part of the deal and also above average.Service was professional and fun, the place was crowded by the time we left. Jo has clearly drawn an enthusiastic following to her restaurant, and was at the door all evening greeting regulars.We will be back.

2. Rhea's Kitchen

Reviewed By Neal S
When you're in Newport and you want 'great food' , your thoughts will likely turn to someplace on the water, or a space with a nautical theme or a "gilded age" motif commensurate with the nearby mansions. You may or may not find the food meets your expectations and, if you do, it will likely come with an eye-popping tab. This past week, a group of five were looking for a restaurant that served great food, but offered a diverse menu to cater to one diner whose primary interest in in beef, and another with a hankering to get better acquainted with New England seafood. A friend recommended Rhea's Kitchen. "It isn't much to look at, but the food is outstanding," he said. Those words were prophetic. Two of us had ribs with a great rub cooked such that the meat fell apart in out hands. Two had salmon, flown in from Scotland, that was tender and flavorful. The fifth had scrod that could have come out of Legal Sea Foods' kitchen back when it was in Inman Square.The menu is not large, but everything we had was done with care, served hot, and met the careful description provided. The wine list sounded interesting (also limited), but we went with mixed drinks (as a side note, I also found the wine prices, both by the glass and by the bottle, to be higher than they ought to be). Service was excellent; neither hovering nor solicitous, and definitely friendly.We arrived at 6 p.m. on a Saturday evening and found four tables with couples or parties at them. When we left at 8:30, we emptied out the place. Something is clearly out of kilter: a place with excellent food at reasonable prices ought to be wall-to-wall people at that hour. Where were the customers? And, especially, with the Flower Show in town?The answer, I think, is in the location (Middletown, not Newport, though just three miles away) and the venue. It's an old house converted to a restaurant. It ain't fancy and it ain't inviting. There's a defunct Saab dealership next door that adds to the sense of 'uh oh'. Don't judge this place by its exterior. Inside beats the heart of an exceptional restaurant.

We just had a very disappointing meal: dry over-cooked fish and fried calamari, and the lobster in the pasta scampi was inedible. We learned from an adjacent table that their prior chef, John, left just a few weeks ago. Apparently the quality has dropped dramatically since he left!
