Best Restaurants that are Worth The Drive in Barrington

We love the Coast Guard House…everything about it! Great staff and our server was outstanding!

We had Anthony as our server and he was fantastic! I have been there a few times this season and Anthony was the most attentive! Would definitely recommend going and getting the chicken Alfredo or the pork chop, but if you get yourself sat in Anthony’s section consider yourself lucky!! He made our Christmas Eve reservation that much more special! Thanks Anthony!

Waterman’s is our go to place for the ambiance, food and super friendly services! The food at Waterman’s is always delicious with a little flair to it . You can’t go wrong if you are looking for a special place to be with an awesome group of service people who care about your experience. Prices are to be expected for something nice! (Thank you to the awesome staff)

Our server Amanda was very friendly and accommodating. Our dinner on Christmas Eve was slow arriving from the kitchen, but fortunately there was a beautiful ambience to enjoy the evening with my man. 

I have been coming to this location long before Newport Restaurant Group acquired it and have had a love and regretfully, hate relationship with this restaurant. Sometimes the food is good, sometimes not. Sometimes the service is fantastic and sometimes not. Tonight, for the first time in my experience,they have met at an intersection of wonderful! Our waitress, Svetlana was exceptional. Being Christmas Eve, I had prepared to tamper my expectations because as with most holiday dining, it's a lot to manage the parties varying in size and expectation along with the intensity placed on the kitchen and it's staff. She was personable, friendly and attentive the entire service. In addition, the food was exceptional! We had started with the creamy chowder and 6 oysters and 4 shrimp cocktail, then the tuna tartare and the crab dip. There was a slightly longer wait for the lobsters ( because we waited to place the entree orders until we were half way done with our second course and not because of our waitress). Still, the restaurant manager came over to apologize for the slightly longer wait, which was NOT their fault. Our 2 lb and 1.25 lb baked stuffed lobsters came out to perfection! We also managed to indulge in the bananas fosters cheesecake. A delightful surprise of an evening and now, we want more! The staff , front and back of house are to be commended as well as the management team, for what felt like a well prepared team ready to serve the masses!
