    Gluten free fish and chips
    Rachel O.

    There's something really special about Parlor Bar & Kitchen. Walking in to the Parlor for the first time felt like walking on to the set of an early 2000's sitcom set in a neighborhood bar. The bartender (owner in disguise) was so charismatic & welcoming from the jump; the cool girl energy just radiated off of her. It was a quiet Tuesday evening, & it seemed like everyone sitting at the bar knew the owner & the owner knew them. That's the real Newport. That's the Newport I like. I was delighted to see that the menu had allergens clearly marked & that SO many things could be made gluten-free by request, including the fish & chips. Gluten-free fish & chips! Be still my heart. Parlor is officially a member of the very exclusive gluten-free fish & chips club - which includes only 3 other restaurants I've found in my travels. That's a big deal. My meal was paired excellently with a glass of Woodford & good company. As if this spot couldn't get any better, I noticed two pool tables in the back. I didn't have the chance to play a game this time, but I will certainly be back to change that. This place secured an immediate spot in my heart. Delicious, gluten-free food, wonderful feminine energy behind the bar, a true neighborhood feel, & pool tables. What more could I possibly ask for? It's my dream haunt. Thank you for having me at your bar. 6/5 stars.

    chicken sandwich
    Abbie D.

    Loved my meal here, I enjoyed the seasonal peach and tomato burrata salad with a peach mule. The mule was flavorful but not served in the typical mug and it lacked a formal garnish, for a $14 drink it should've been more sophisticated. If I returned I doubt I would order a cocktail again. The salad was divine, I would eat this all day every day, it is not part of the regular menu but is a wonderful summer addition. The chicken sandwich was fine, rather tame and mild. I would've liked to see some house made pickles or something to elevate the flavor. Overall, this was a good spot it wouldn't take much to improve. The service and decor were good as well.

    This is my new favorite restaurant in Newport.. always has amazing live music including a 16 piece brass band that plays the last Tuesday of the month.. we had great calamari, coconut curry mussels a chicken sandwich to die for and the carrots on whipped feta with arugula and walnuts was heaven.

    Super cool vibe
    Kerri L.

    What an eclectic bar offering pub food which includes a range of gluten free options! Our bartender's easygoing personality immediately made us feel welcome even though we arrived close to 10 to eat food. She had us laughing and easily engaged us in conversation. This cozy bar boasts two pool tables in the back, perfect for getting your game on! Thanks for a great experience!

    Fountain of youth

    Stopped here after a yelp event for drinks. Our bartender was awesome so fun and made great drinks!! I'll be looking for the fountain of youth on the menu :) I didn't eat but my friend got the fish and chips which were made gluten free and she enjoyed it, they have pool tables in the back. Definitely a fun spot for a drink and some pool

    My first stop during a recent visit to Newport and what an awesome warm welcome! I arrived on a Sunday and this great spot was a few steps from my Airbnb. I asked to grab a seat at the bar and enjoyed a glass of pinot grigio and their really tasty cauliflower appetizer. I was starving and and still brought home leftovers - I HIGHLY recommend giving this an order no matter what. The staff here is so welcoming and easy going, and the owner was even kind enough to give me some recommendations of other adventures to try as I bopped about town. The space itself is beautifully appointed and would be ideal for a date night or group meal of any kind. Thanks to the entire team here for an amazing Newport welcome!

    Buger and fries
    Dennise K.

    My friend and I popped in for dinner at this nice spot. She lives around the block so it offered us a nice pre and post meal stroll. It has a welcoming vibe as a local 'watering hole' with delicious food and welcoming staff. They offer daily specials and plenty of space to enjoy a bite with the family, a conversation with a friend, or a solo adventure at the bar. I want to return during colder weather to enjoy a cocktail by the fireplace, which is a little area.

    Crab cakes with roasted corn and a mango salsa

    I love this place! Certainly they have really incredible food, much better than most places I've been in Newport. They also have a really cool second bar and dance floor and stage area and lots of times there's really good local live music. Especially the last Tuesday of the month I believe they have like a 15-piece brass band it's incredible!

Over the course of our stay we enjoyed the Pell Special, French toast, and veggie omelet. On the downside was one morning's meat lovers omelet that was overdone and close to tasteless. On our last evening we decided to have dinner in-house starting with a shared arugula salad that was lightly dressed and delicious. For an entree my wife chose salmon while I focused my attention on scallops. Each proved to be surprisingly delicious so we would not hesitate to return. We paid for one entree and received the second free courtesy of our Newport County Dinner Club card. Service, both in the morning and evening, ranged from very good to excellent.

    We ate here for Valentine's Dinner while staying at the Pell. To be completely honest I was very…read moredisappointed with the experience. We had reservations and waited about 15 minutes to be seated though the host was very nice. They were going to sit us on a 6 top in the middle of the restaurant but moved us to a smaller quieter table as we didn't need such a large table. We ordered shortly after being seated. I ordered the prix fixe menu with came with salad/soup, an entree and a dessert. I also ordered off the kids menu. I ordered mocktails for my kids and a cocktail for myself that came out quickly. I'm a tequila lover so I got the naked and famous which I loved. After our drinks everything went downhill. We then waited almost an hour and a half for our food. I tried to get our servers attention multiple times to ask why the wait was so long. She never bothered to check in with us to let us know we would be waiting so long. I looked over and noticed that the 6 top who sat and ordered well after us had already received their food. When I called our server over to ask if she could at least bring out the soup or kids meal so that my kids wouldn't starve. She stated that she couldn't bring anything out until the kitchen brought everything out together. She said the kitchen was backed up and kind of shrugged me off. Again, I ordered a prix fixe so why would all the courses come out together? That makes zero sense. I pointed out that the family who ordered after us had already gotten their food. She rolled her eyes and walked away. At this point we were already waiting for 1 hour at this point. Normally this behavior would have had me walking out but we were staying at the hotel, had already waited an hour and it was Valentine's Day so anywhere else would have been busy. A few minutes later she brought out some soup for my daughter, no apologies just matter of factly like she did me a favor by bringing out our soup. The table next to us asked her for some fries as they also had a child starving to them she apologized and replied not a problem I'll bring out some fries for you. When we did get our food we were disappointed with everything besides the kids pasta. The pasta was the only thing that tasted ok. The salmon was burnt and the sweet potato puree tasted old and really had no flavor. I missed the part of bacon bits in the green beans so that's on me but the bacon with the salmon did not go together at all. The chicken sandwich was dry and lacked flavor while the fries were okay. I asked for the dessert to go because I didn't want to wait for another hour. She first brought it out on a regular dish then took it to the kitchen and had it mushed in a Togo container not separating the bread from the cream. When I did finally take the dessert to my room I did not enjoy it at all either this was hard and I would not call it bread pudding. It was literally chunks of bread with cream spread on top. The hotel itself was fantastic but our experience at the restaurant was horrible. The front desk was apologetic and accommodating when we checked out however so we will definitely come back to stay at the hotel, but will most likely avoid the restaurant.

    From the moment we walked up, the host team greeted us with so many smiles and such great energy…read more Katie introduced herself as the GM, was right there welcoming incoming guests herself. It was a BUSY Saturday night, we had no reservation, and the bar was packed... but divine timing somehow worked in our favor and two seats opened up right at the end of the bar. That's where we met Nick behind the bar, and honestly, he made the night. Nick was working the service well, taking care of a packed bar and banging out beautifully curated cocktails. I still don't know how he was that efficient while also taking the time to walk us through the entire menu. You could tell he genuinely took pride in the food he was describing and wanted us to experience it. I started with the Mezcal Negroni and from there we decided on a few small bites. First, the ricotta gnudi... perfectly fried and warm with just the right bite on the outside, then you break into this warm, soft little pillow of ricotta that was an absolute flavor bomb. Finished with freshly shaved Parmesan on top. I swear for a second I thought I was sitting somewhere on the water in Italy. Then the Scotch bonnet egg... WOW... truly every dish was just mind blowing ...all this dishes we ate....Nothing overpowered anything else. Every bite mattered. You could actually taste every layer and every little detail that went into all the dishes. Then came the beef tartare. Beautifully presented with the green crab purée in the center and crispy chips for that perfect crunch. Katie came over herself to explain the dish, and once you got everything together in one bite... absolute flavor explosion. Rich, bright, creamy, salty, crunchy. Everything on that plate had a purpose. We were also told we HAD to try the sweet corn agnolotti and THANK GOD we listened. Another complete flavor bomb. Absolutely amazing. It genuinely gives some of my favorite Italian restaurants in Beverly Hills El Baldi a run for their money. At this point Nick basically said, "Trust me," and asked if he could choose our next course. YES. PLEASE. Out came this gorgeous lamb sausage with fresh greens, snap peas, mint, dill, pickled vegetables and this beautiful creamy green sauce underneath. THAT DISH. The sausage was rich, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, but all those fresh herbs, greens and acidity made the entire plate feel bright and balanced. Hearty and comforting while somehow still tasting fresh and light. Then Nick convinced us to put our trust in him one last time and let him choose dessert. He brought out the bread pudding and I am not exaggerating when I say it was the PERFECT ending to this entire food adventure. I literally had tears in my eyes. The food, the cocktails, the service, the salt water in the air, the smiles from the staff... everything just came together.....Nothing was pretentious. Everything was highly elevated while still having this incredible sense of warmth and comfort. It almost felt like being welcomed into someone's home and they just happened to be cooking some of the best food you've ever eaten. Huge shoutout to GM Katie and bartender Nick. Thank you both for giving us one of the most amazing and memorable dining experiences I've ever had. We walked in on a packed Saturday night without a reservation, just hoping to grab a couple seats, have a cocktail and eat something good... and walked out feeling like we had experienced something really special. 10/10. Every bite. Every cocktail. Every detail. I would go back in a heartbeat.

The restaurant was packed, and since we didn't have a reservation, we ended up sitting in the bar area. Honestly, that wasn't a bad thing--the views of the sunset and the wharf were beautiful. The drinks came out quickly, although my cocktail had way too much citrus. The oysters arrived next, and they were fresh and delicious, so we were all feeling pretty good about the meal and looking forward to our entrées. Unfortunately, that's where things went downhill. We waited an entire hour for our entrées to arrive, and the waitstaff wasn't very forthcoming with updates. We had to track someone down anytime we had a question or needed something, which became very frustrating. Once the food finally arrived, it was disappointing. Several of the dishes were extremely salty. I ordered the swordfish, which was slightly overcooked, and the vegetables were overwhelmingly acidic, as if an entire bottle of vinegar had been poured over them. They were also topped with a generous amount of capers, making the dish even saltier. Overall, it just wasn't enjoyable. I mentioned my concerns to our waitress, but unfortunately, she didn't seem particularly concerned. Hopefully, she passed the feedback along to the chef so some adjustments can be made. The beautiful waterfront setting and fresh oysters were definitely highlights which gained a star here but unfortunately, the long wait, lack of communication, and disappointing entrées overshadowed the experience.

How we would rate our experience Sommelier & Wine -- 5/5 A true highlight. We started with a half bottle of sparkling, then chose a bottle of white. The sommelier presented the bottle, which is on the prestige wine tasting list. His pairing with the artichoke was superb. Service -- 4/5 Really polished, Michelin-level service. They pushed in our chairs, folded our napkins if we stepped away, changed silverware between courses. Only opportunity was sweeping up crumbs. There was one mix-up when someone who wasn't our server brought out a quail dish. We explained we're vegan, and he immediately took it away, returned and apologized. Otherwise, service was excellent. Ambiance -- 3/5 The water views are beautiful and could make this a 4, but a rowdy terrace party gave more sports-bar vibes, and the door to the bar kept opening. Presentation -- 3.5/5 Visually stunning, with obvious precision and advanced gastronomy techniques. The uniformity of the vegetables and textures was impressive. Some courses were 5/5 showstoppers, while others were one too many strange bowls of foam--2/5. Taste -- 1/5 The food was seriously bland. We observed the vegetarian dishes were similar to the meat and seafood dishes, but with the protein removed. When you remove a salty, savory fish, you also remove everything it contributes. Something needs to be added back to execute the original composition. Price -- 2/5 At $185 per person, the vegetarian tasting menu is not justified at the same meat price. I'm happy to pay for an incredible experience, but this menu should be closer to $99-$125 WITH improved taste and care. Bottom line Aurelia has potential, but I would not currently recommend it to vegetarians or vegans unless they take our feedback seriously. The vegetables felt like supporting players in dishes designed around the meat or seafood, and didn't shine on their own. The service, wine program and technical execution are all there. But the most important part is simple, the food should taste good, especially at thar price.

    Ordered: Dragonfruit Margarita (~$16): blanco tequila,…read moretriple sec, dragon fruit, lime, black salt rim Passionfruit Spritz (~$16): passionfruit liquor, prosecco, soda Crispy Calamari (~$19): three-pepper mint relish, lemon Lobster Bisque (~$16): knuckle & claw meat, chives Bone in Delmonico 18oz (~$67): with truffle butter Truffle Mac & Cheese (~$16) 22B Mashed Potatoes (~$12) Old Fashioned Carrot Cake (complimentary): with caramel sauce Aya's take: It was our last night in Newport and we were also celebrating my birthday, and I'm so glad we chose 22 Bowen's! Service was attentive, the restaurant is super spacious, and the food was delicious. We started with a couple cocktails which were decent but I would suggest a bottle of wine instead to better suit their menu. The Crispy Calamari was so satisfying. It was crispy, not chewy at all, and the peppers and lemon added a bright zestiness to each bite. The Lobster Bisque was also the best I've ever had. It was soothing, buttery, and loaded with lobster! Since we were sharing, they pre-split the portion for us which was a thoughtful touch. We got the Bone In Delmonica 18oz which comes with one accompanying sauce. We got the truffle butter and I wish they'd give at least 2 because the horseradish crema and chimichurri also caught my eye. The steak was cooked to a perfect medium. It was charred on the outside, juicy on the inside, and went well with the sides. Speaking of sides, the Truffle Mac & Cheese is a huge portion for ~$16! Not to mention, it's so creamy, cheesy, and earthy from the truffle. I loved it! The 22B Mashed Potatoes were delicately smooth and paired well with the steak. We ended with the Old Fashioned Carrot Cake which was moist, had good texture, and a delicious cream cheese frosting. I appreciate the fact that it was complimentary; getting a free birthday dessert has become a lost art but not at 22 Bowen's! Highly recommend making a reservation for a special occasion or just a memorable dinner!
