Auguste is the best - great suggestions for food, attentive, and so friendly(we remember Auguste from last year). And the food is so good - Chef Tyler is still here - fantastic food (hazelnut crusted coho salmon, scallop & shrimp scampi, cioppino, bay shrimp cocktail with great cocktail sauce , key lime pie, mixed berry cheesecake, and tiramisu - all excellent). Thank you to Auguste and chef Tyler for making our yearly visit to The Adobe special. Final night for dinner at The Adobe: another wonderfully delicious meal with the delightful Heather Marie as our server. Meals that were yummy: spring pea asparagus linguine, grilled rock cod, grilled shrimp, and cioppino, key lime pie, tiramisu, chocolate marquis flourless cake. Heather Marie is so much fun as bartender, and "jack of all" in food serving department(she does it all with a smile). Love The Adobe Staff - they make The Adobe what it is. The Adobe makes for a pleasurable vacation.

As a pro tip, you should always order a side of sliced sourdough bread to go with it; it is the perfect pairing for that creamy goodness. For beverages, they have about a dozen flavored sodas to choose from, and I always get the Cherry Bomb from that list. Other favorites from their menu are the oyster shooters, their famous popcorn shrimp, and The Crew Share. Service is always quick and friendly, whether you are dining in or ordering for takeout. The location offers a variety of seating, including cozy indoor options as well as side and front patio seating for when the weather is nice. If you want to take the experience home, they also have fresh steamed Dungeness crab and a wide variety of other seafood for sale to go as well! You truly can't go wrong when stopping in here for lunch or dinner.

We had read about this restaurant before coming to Newport. We are from the East Coast and were…read morelooking for some good seafood. We were here for our grand-daughter's wedding and were watching her dog. We called to make sure that they could accommodate a party of 4 with a dog, and we were told "Yes." We arrived for an early dinner around 4:00 PM. The restaurant was practically empty. When I said that we were a party of 4 with a dog and that I had called and was told it would be okay, I got a look of surprise form the hostess and she walked away. After a few minutes, she came back and told us to walk around the outside of the restaurant and come to the side, which we did. This was a semi-enclosed area. She at first wanted to seat us close to the trash bins that smelled like fish garbage, so we asked to be moved up closer to the front windows, which they did. She placed 4 menus on the table with 4 napkins, 4 knives, and 2 forks. We had to ask for 2 more forks and they brought 4 - duh! The server came over and brought 3 waters with ice and one with no ice - go figure! She asked if we were ready to order. We said "No," as we had just sat down. She took our drink orders which she managed to get wrong. We only ordered two drinks. A beer for my son-in- law and a Canadian Club Whiskey on the rocks - single serving, for my husband. She brought him the drink straight up - he had to ask for the ice to put in his drink. We then placed our dinner orders. They were out of oysters so that we could not order any of the dishes on the menu with oysters. We started with two cups and a bowl of Gino's Homemade Clam Chowder. We all enjoyed the soup very much. My husband and I decided to share the Pan Seared Rockfish and told the server that we would be sharing and requested another plate. The menu described it as pan seared rockfish topped with fresh fennel and honey mustard vinaigrette served with spinach creamy risotto and sauteed seasonal vegetables. They forgot to bring the extra plate, so we had to ask for it again. The other entrees were the Rockfish Fish 'n Chips and the Crew Share which was two pieces of halibut, two prawns, two scallops, and two small oysters with chips and Cole slaw. We had to ask for more water, which never came. They paid no attention to details. The food was enjoyable. The service was terrible. All in all, it was pricey in our book and just okay! There are far too many restaurants in Newport to choose from - go elsewhere!

I was happy to see that Newport Cafe was still around. I went in to look at the menu, sat down, and ordered. When the food came and I started to eat, I thought this would play out like another 4 star event. Let me preface this by saying that Newport Cafe currently gets 2 stars from me, with the two words assigned to those stars being: CHISELING CENTRAL I ordered the meatloaf, which had a nice garnish vegetables, and the mashed potatoes with gravy. I also ordered lemonade. I ate and asked for the bill. When the bill arrived, I saw that there was a $2 upcharge for a side of gravy, the same gravy that went onto the mashed potatoes. Rarely have I seen meatloaf presented "dry." It typically has gravy or a tomato based sauce on it. Waiter #1, who took my order, was the nicer of the two guys. Waiter #2 brought me the check. I'm used to paying up charges for extra bleu cheese, tartar sauce, or tzatziki sauce, but not for pedestrian gravy and certainly not $2 at a roadside diner. Waiter #2 got testy when I asked him about the charge, told him that I've not seen meatloaf presented "dry," and I don't think I've ever been charged for gravy. His smart alecky answer before walking away was, "I can tell." At this point, I just wanted to pay the bill and get out of there. I was able to get waiter #1's attention. I brought up the same issue since he was more affable and seated me. In fact, he and I discussed a sauce his grandparents would apply to their meat loaf! He said that the charges are listed and it's treated as a side. I don't think that a person would move from the dinner menu list ... to the backside of the menu to scour it for sides for gravy, like they would for additional vegetables or potatoes. I told him he could have also told me it was extra because I would have passed. This isn't about being petty as much as it is about Newport Cafe obfuscating the situation. In a few minutes, it got even worse. The credit card used fee was obviously pegged at 4%, which might even be higher than what the credit card companies really charge them. This then starts looking similar to the subplot in the comedy "Office Space," where small rounding amounts add up to some moolah over a lot of customers. It got even worse when they brought me the credit card point of sale machine. Upon entering my tab, I saw a much higher amount displayed. Waiter #1 told me it was the suggested tip. The tip was in the ball park of 25%! He told me I could change it. You can bet I did. (Upon recently having breakfast at IHOP, the available tip options were 15%, 18%, 20%, and other.) With such a crazy amount on there, the buyer who is not the sharpest tool in the shed with numbers might accidentally tap the "accept" button. I changed the tip to zero. I've done that less than a handful of times in my life. The math indicates that $2.00 for the pedestrian gravy and 84 cents for the credit card fee add up to $2.84, thus a 15% tip of the base in and of themselves. I do think it is tacky to stiff a server. However I saw a boss do it and it was warranted. We were in a nicer Italian restaurant in Manhattan for work and, at the end of the dinner, my boss stacked a couple of the plates. The petulant Italian waiter - from Italy - at this pissy restaurant said 'No, no, no, you don't stack the plates at a nice restaurant.' My boss was insulted by this, and so was I, whereby an arrogant foreign waiter berated my white collar boss to give her a crash course on "executive charm school" manners. I bring this up because she entered a big glaring zero as the tip amount. With the flippant "I can tell" comment and $2.84 in fees, there's your tip. The food was good, but not spectacular. It's basic comfort food. I remember liking their fish and chips more and how, some ten years ago, it was a benign and relaxing experience. It goes without saying that Newport Cafe's location and decor is interesting. Thinking about the credit card usage fee, that means it's also applied to the already overpriced sweatshirts and other tourist paraphernalia they sell. I could see the cooks hard at work when I went to use the restroom before settling in. It's too bad that this went south so quickly. I watched the sea lions bark for about 15 minutes and got back on the road. I really would have liked to have eaten in Lincoln City, but Maxwell's is no longer around, and I didn't think I could hold out until Lincoln City. With that linear experience where they bring you tasty fish and chips, you pay normal prices, there are no weird upcharges and a preset tip that you have to undo gone, it's time to move on. Again, I'm at 2 stars. I've already suggested the 2 words CHISELING CENTRAL to accompany the 2 stars. I could also go with the 2 words TOURIST TRAP
