    The Narragansett Lager!
    Diane C.

    We discovered MainSail after getting off the boat from the Newport Jazz Fest. MainSail is located in the Newport Marriott. The drink and food prices are not over the top for a hotel. Stephanie was our server. We ordered a Cabernet and some beers. Food- Clam chowder, Chicken Tacos and Mussels- Good quality! The outside views of the yachts moving through waters are mesmerizing at sunset! Overall service was good and prompt. Definitely recommend Mainsail for drinks and food. It won't break the bank!

    Avocado toast

    We had $30 credit to spend at the Marriott so we decided to eat breakfast here, since our baby woke up so early. Wow, I was so impressed! Definitely way better than many other hotel breakfasts. The staff was so nice to us too! Loved the avocado toast and their home fries were great.

    Came here for our Thanksgiving lunch. The view was great. We sat right by the window and could oversee the entire harbor. For the food, the crab cakes were more like a croquette but that's OK. They were delicious. The main I got was the swordfish which might have been slightly undercooked. Nothing terrible though, and the veggies around it were fantastic. My wife got the turkey dinner, and the amount of food was wild. She had at least double my quantity! She got the apple pie dessert, which she raved about. Even though pie a la mode is nice, not really great for cold weather. I got the pumpkin pie latte tiramisu. It was delicious! The service was decent, but the place was practically empty. The price was a little high for what we got considering no drinks were included at all.

    Time to have some dinner!

    The service here was just amazing! Came here for our anniversary night on a Saturday night. They're practicing social distancing while making others wear a mask to come in. You can take off your mask once you're at the table. The manager (didn't get his name) was amazing. Very hospitable... and just awesome. Our server Samantha was such a sweetheart. Very attentive of our table! We had a wonderful anniversary thanks to you both. The lobster risotto was delicious ! A lot of lobster in it! The fish tacos were the best we have ever had. This place is Highly recommended!

    The only reason to eat at mainsail is convenience. It's located in the lobby of the Newport Marriot. We had the breakfast buffet for $20 per person. Standard omelet station, waffles made to order, and a buffet of cereal, granola, fruit (good selection of berries, melon, grapefruit, pineapple), yogurt, assorted breads and muffins and a hot station of scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, and hash browns. Coffee, tea and juice are included but not self serviced. Food is average, service is great. But one morning is enough. We all decided to eat in town the next day. That says it all.

    Atlantic Grille is one of my favorite breakfast spots, and can be considered a somewhat "hidden…read moregem" due to the fact that it's not located right smack in Downtown Newport. Don't be afraid- it's just a short drive (10 minutes or so), and the Grille does have onsite parking. Even if there's a wait, don't let it deter you. The home cooked breakfast grub is truly worth it, and they turn tables pretty quickly, so you shouldn't be waiting for too long before you can sit in a comfy booth and dig into fluffy pancakes, perfect omelettes, and the best hash brown potatoes ever! The inside of the restaurant is casual, with surf inspired decor, chalkboards listing daily specials, and a full service bar with TVs broadcasting the latest game. Atlantic Grille is family friendly, so if you are looking for a chic girls brunch spot or something quiet and reserved, this may not be the place for you. However, if you are looking for classic breakfast fare at a good price in a fun and convivial environment, this is the place to go. I love the Western Omelette with gooey cheese, crisp ham and fresh veggies, or the Eggs Benedict, which features perfectly poached eggs (kudos to the kitchen for nailing this every time). I also enjoy the fresh fruit bowl (nothing canned or sketchy), and we always have to get a Buttermilk Pancake as an appetizer (this is the "bread course!") This is a great family owned spot you'll want to add to your Aquidneck Island adventures- especially if you want to feel like a local!

It was packed with tiny peppers, and the perfect amount of onion. I was happy with the amount of cheese, others might want more.

Then they served our food, but forgot my youngest boys breakfast (which was only pancakes on the kids menu). Then in the middle of him eating his mail while we were waiting she just dropped the check and said no rush instead of just waiting for him to finish up. Lastly, we paid our bill and then the waitress said oh wait I forgot to add your drinks to the check. This was funny because she forgot our drink water, and I had to go up and order our drinks, but yet she did remember at the last second to add them on which was too funny. The food was nothing special, but overall satisfactory. What you really are paying for is the ambience and the view out to the ocean.

    Johnny's is located within the Wyndham Hotel in Middletown RI…read more My wife and I often stay here as the hotel is excellent, however this review relates to Johnny's. As noted above we have eaten here in the past. We have dined with large as well as small groups and have always been pleased. The place is beautiful, especially in the summer. The outdoor patio bar boasts a great view of Green End Pond. A great place to grab a drink and an appetizer. We started out on the patio and returned later for dinner. Based on our sub par experience the night before (see prior review) I was committed to having a great meal. We were not disappointed. I started with the clam chowder. Delicious. Flavorful and loaded with clams. My wife opted for the lobster bisque In an effort to negate the lousy lobster bisque she had on the previous night. Mission accomplished. She described it as buttery and creamy. Essentially the perfect bisque flavor. Contained within the bisque was a tremendous chunk of delicious lobster meat . For dinner, I chose the baked stuffed shrimp. It was delicious. Cooked to perfection with delicious stuffing, rice, pilaf, and broccoli. My only complaint is that I believe there should be more than 4 shrimp at this price. My wife selected the Pasta Bolognese. A dish that she has had and several other restaurants in several states and she ranked this right at the top of the list. Plenty of beef and pork combined with a tasty Italian sauce. When in the Newport area I suggest you skip the over hyped restaurants and head to Johnny's for a delicious meal with great atmosphere.

Asked the waitress to cut it in half she had to consult with another waitress asking, can I send this back to be cut in half The bill comes with an automatic 20% gratuity added, large group of us. I pay with a 100 bill, was very pricey and the waitress asked if I wanted change !! I said yes please I see your tip is included in the bill ... really a 40.00 tip! I was not impressed. Pricey, and subpar food. The band was great, Nice location as well.

    We just had another fabulous dinner at Brick Alley Pub & Restaurant--our second time dining here…read moresince last fall, and it was just as wonderful as we remembered. We arrived a little early for our 4:00 p.m. reservation, and the place was already packed. While we waited by the bar, a very nice waitress took our drink order--a lemon drop martini, beautifully crafted, well-balanced, and pleasantly strong. We were seated shortly after and, of course, ordered another. (Both times, I took several sips before remembering to take a photo!) Our waitress, Mikela, was truly lovely--sincere, sweet, and very courteous. She was attentive throughout the meal without ever being intrusive, which made the experience feel relaxed and effortless. At the end, I told her I wished I could give her 6 stars, but Yelp only allows 5. For dinner, we both ordered the seared rare ahi tuna steak. I had mine with garlic bread, while my husband chose mashed potatoes. I also added the $9.95 salad buffet, which is such a great deal--you definitely won't leave hungry. I especially love their buffet-style salad bar, which offers nearly every option one could want. Both of our ahi tuna steaks were fantastic--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Once again, I dug into my tuna before remembering to take a photo! We finished the meal with a cheesecake to share--another delicious ending to a wonderful dinner. We're already planning our next visit--there are still so many dishes and drinks we'd love to try.
