This time I ordered the Glow Bowl with quinoa instead of rice, and it was perfect. The balance of quinoa, chickpeas, sweet potatoes, carrots, beets, raisins, and the dressing was just right. The staff is always warm, friendly, and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. I love that the menu never gets boring because everything tastes so fresh and thoughtfully prepared. I already look forward to my next visit!

It was an easy walk from our hotel and right next to all the action. The place was lively for a weeknight and to go orders were flying out the door. We sat at the counter and had a personal seat to the kitchen. Let me tell you, the kitchen lead was fully in control of his kitchen. We watched him handle every dish meticulously with care. I had the bolognese and my wife had the salmon. Both dishes hit the spot. The pizzas are grilled and highly praised. I'll have to go back to try them.

The highlight for me was definitely the apple cider. Honestly, some of the best I've ever had! The service was another plus--everyone was super friendly, and everything came out quickly.

Still incredible! Wife and I are celebrating our anniversary and stopped at our favorite cafe in…read morethe country and it delivered again. Can't say enough good things about this place. My wife had the chicken & white bean chili and I had the night shift breakfast burrito. Both were excellent! The staff were amazing and sweet. My wife is gluten free and they confirmed everything worked for her. The dark roast coffee is my favorite thing here though. I need to bring a book next time to take full advantage of the cozy cafe.

It's a small, cozy spot with just a few tables and countertop seating, plus a couple of outdoor tables that are dog-friendly. The truffle mac & cheese may be one of the best vegan mac & cheeses I've had in a really long time. So creamy, rich, and absolutely delicious. The cauliflower bites were another favorite--fresh, crunchy little nuggets tossed perfectly in honey mustard. I originally thought the sauce would come on the side for dipping, but I actually loved that they were coated so evenly. So good! Hubby had the Rubenesque sandwich, and everything was incredibly fresh and delicious. There was also a steady stream of people picking up online orders and grabbing food to go, which definitely made us feel like this is a local favorite. I'd definitely recommend grabbing a meal here, or taking it to go for a beach picnic or to enjoy at one of Newport's scenic spots. And if you're looking for coffee and heading out of Newport, seriously recommend Simple Merchant House. We stopped there right before Sprout & Lentil, and again as we were leaving Newport on our last day. After lunch, we looped back into Newport to visit The Breakers and Marble House, making for such a fun day.

Smaller shared parking lot to be mindful of here. Very welcoming staff that provided a great overview of the menu, drinks, made to take items and weekly specials. Casual relaxed atmosphere here with some music jamming in the background. Window bar seating if you are on your own or tables for four if meeting for a quick lunch bite. Started with a small chili which was fresh and full of flavor. For the main went with the Tuesday special with the recommended fish tacos (hearts of palm layered with nori flakes, crisp grated carrot, and shredded purple cabbage and a sliced jalapeño. Crispy tortilla with side of beans and rice). You can add a fresh pico and guac for additional prices, had both and were delicious! Assortment of drinks in the fridge along with some premade items (staff said it is rotational items and prepped earlier in the week if you want to max your options). After eating here can see what all the buzz was for a standout vegan option on island. A group came in after me and ordered a pizza that looked awesome as well. Will be back to try more of the menu when able!!

Thank you for a great grilled cheese!

As a New Yorker who visits Newport several times a year (thank you, timeshare life), Jo's is always…read moremy very first stop in town, and for good reason. From the moment you walk in, the place is spotless. The windows practically sparkle, the bathrooms are arguably the cleanest in Newport (a detail that never goes unnoticed), and the décor? Absolutely stunning. The craftsmanship alone, especially the woodwork is worth admiring before you even glance at the menu. Speaking of which, the food is consistently excellent, but what truly sets Jo's apart is the service. The atmosphere is relaxed and unpretentious, yet incredibly attentive. It feels less like dining out and more like being welcomed into someone's home, if that someone also happens to serve fantastic meals. The staff are genuinely warm, friendly, and engaging. You can tell they enjoy what they do, they're laughing, smiling, and connecting with guests in a way that feels authentic. That kind of culture starts from the top, so hats off to the management for creating such a positive environment. Thank you again for another amazing dinner, I'm already looking forward to my next visit this fall.

The weekday prix fixe remains available, but on our most recent visit we decided to take a deeper dive into the menu. We were started off with warm ciabatta and butter shortly after our orders were taken followed by a shared bistro salad featuring arugula, baby kale, romaine lettuce, goat cheese, asparagus spears, sticks of apple, and dried cranberries enhanced by hibiscus vinaigrette. My wife's entree choice was seared salmon with a pomegranate glaze, tomato, capers, kale and chive orzo that proved to be a taste delight. My pan-roasted cod bouille included clams, potatoes, fennel, Pernod, and roasted tomatoes topped with grilled foccacia in a romanesco sauce was almost as good. Service by Alec was excellent throughout with him periodically checking on us. We used a 2 for 1 coupon from the Newport County Dinner Club to ease the financial burden.

I always imagined it was a tiny spot but it feels like you're walking through three different restaurants, each room with a different vibe. We shared the popcorn chicken, a few hot dogs, a margarita tower, and espresso martinis. Everything was great!!!! Our waitress (who's also one of the bartenders) was so friendly and accommodating. I wish I remembered her name so I could give her a shoutout. We'll definitely be back!

Hands down...delicious! I had the special with scallops,…read moreangel hair and capers. The scallops were cooked to perfection. And the sauce was lemony and salty. My side was the Caesar salad. Just the right amount of salt and pepper! Delicious. My hubby got the chicken and waffles. That gravy, oh my goodness! Bomb. Atmosphere is eclectic but fun. Service is TOP TIER!!!! The he place was packed and I see why. Also, I have an allergy to cinnamon. Going anywhere in October, I can be subjected to cinnamon. Our server, Melanie...amazing (ask for her), she made sure to tell the chef about my allergy. Wanted to order a dessert, but she asked the chef and he advised I could not due to possibility of having cinnamon. Very gracious server and chef!

I was treated to a birthday meal at Brick Alley Pub by a friend. I hadn't been there in years & had…read moreforgotten how fun & funky it was. We had reservations for 6PM but arrived shortly after 5PM. They were gracious enough to accommodate us immediately. Our server was friendly & attentive but very inexperienced. My friend ordered Salmon Piccata & she had no idea what that was... she thought it was served with scallops & pasta! We had to explain that Piccata was a sauce with capers; again, she didn't know what capers were. Fortunately, the kitchen understood the order & my friend received the correct dish. Unfortunately, the ends of the salmon were dry & inedible. However, she did enjoy most of the fish & the sides (mashed & veg), and there was enough to bring home. She also had a cider cocktail which, with the sugared rim, was a little too sweet. She would have liked a bit more cider, too. I had the patty melt with sweet potato fries. The sandwich was large & very good. I'm not a huge fan of thick-cut sweet potato fries; if I had known I probably would have opted for another side, as there's a $3 upcharge. The pickle was fantastic! I also had a glass of J. Lohr Cab, which was a good sized pour for $11. Prices were reasonable. Parking is always an issue in Newport. There is metered street parking & paid lots. Beware, parking is diligently monitored & tickets are $60!

Their egg basket without meat is one of my absolute favorites, so I'll definitely be stopping by again to pick up a couple more while we're still in town! This is definitely my favorite bakery in Newport.
