    Oysters were fresh. Beef Wellington cooked perfectly. Bread pudding light and delicious. Best meal in Newport. Service attentive and unpretentious.

    Lobster Bisque was very good! Blackened swordfish and steak frites was equally delicious! I would highly recommend the Candy Bar or crème brûlée for dessert!
