   Our waiter was not attentive. Not only did he bring out the wrong brunch item but after we asked for S&P, we watched as he patrolled the room for what seemed forever when he suddenly realized he’d forgotten about our request. Needless to say my meal was cold by the time he returned with the seasoning. The restaurant is absolutely fabulous but the service left us feeling disappointed.

   It’s our favorite Newport outing. Service is great, starting and ending with the parking valet. We were seated immediately and staff made inquiries and recommendations. Went for the 3-course $60 meals. Great burrata and blueberry salads. Chicken paillard was excellent, as was halibut. Finished with manchego cheese plate. Great wine and drink menu. Chianti by glass is particularly good. Go.

    We recently dined at Flora at Gardiner House, and it was superb! The resort beautifully blends modern elegance with timeless luxury, making it an ideal spot for both overnight guests and casual diners. Upon entering, we were welcomed by a sophisticated lobby that set a wonderful tone for the evening. We started with cocktails at the Studio Bar, (which we love either in the summer time or winter season), where the Gardiner cocktail was refreshingly vibrant, and the martinis were perfectly balanced. Next, we moved to the dining room, warmly greeted by Food and Beverage Manager Vidal, whose attentive service made our experience exceptional. The dining room was beautifully arranged with stunning views and an impressive menu. Our knowledgeable server, Drew, along with his colleague Billy, ensured we had everything we needed and offered great recommendations. For appetizers, we enjoyed Tuna Tartare, Beet Salad, flavorful soup, and delicious Octopus, which was the highlight. Our entrées included Halibut, Scallops, Paella, and Duck, but the desserts truly wowed us, especially the special birthday dessert that Drew presented with a candle. Overall, it was an extraordinary dining experience that I highly recommend. We can't wait to return to Flora! Best, Srdan Dokovic
