Great place to eat in Newport. Tuna Tartare tacos were outstanding and NY strip steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Cherrystones were fresh and the scallops we good but a little salty. Have visited the bar on the second floor which is nice and cozy and great for alcohol infused coffees but is hard to catch open. Definitely on my list of favorite Newport restaurants.

As a avid high tea goer this was great. The scones were perfect and along with the smoked salmon! The service was great as well. I wish there was a little more variety of tea though. I will be going back next time I am in town.
