    Had a wonderful dinner at McCollums on York last evening! We had the salmon and lobster appetizers. They were absolutely delicious! The main course of shrimp, steak and pork were all excellent as well! Our server was Ryan, and he was very sweet and attentive! The renovation that the new owners have done is magical! What a treasure this Newport restaurant is! We will definitely be back !

    The stuffed chicken was dry and unbalanced. Too much sun-dried tomatoes and too little cheese. The lamb chops were overcooked and the crust was super-dry herbs. The gnocchi was an odd pairing and very rubbery. The waitress didn't seem to know anything about alcohol, asking multiple times simple questions about bourbon and wine ordered. The decor looked like they went to Home Goods and selected random things to put on shelves. Everything was over-priced for what was provided. There are too many good restaurants around the city for this to be acceptable. We won't be back.

    The pork shank was outstanding. The meat just melted off. Best I’ve ever had.

    Waited a while before anyone addressed our table. When waitress finally came, she was apologetic and offered free dessert to make up for our wait. She was excellent during our whole time at dinner. New decor and atmosphere was delightful.

    We ordered the cheeseburgers and they were delicious. The macaroni and cheese side dish was huge and way more than for two people. It was freezing in the restaurant. The oil lamp on the table was pretty strong, but the server moved it for us. It was a nice touch when the owner came over and introduced herself and welcomed us.

    The waitress was very attentive and friendly. We had the pork shank and the stuffed chicken. Both were very delicious and tender. Also, the menu gave great details and noted if the items were gluten free, vegan, etc. which was very helpful.
