Awesome place! Very comfortable open floor plan on screened in deck with views of the water. Nice, attentive waitress. We had the Hot Crab Dip with homemade tortilla chips and split a Lobster Roll with mayo! Delicious! Definitely Recommended! read more

Checked the website on Monday, 9/16,& it said they were open for lunch starting at 11:30am. A friend and I got there about noon, and the place was closed up. There was furniture scattered on the patio, and no one home at the inn! Two other cars had pulled up and people got out planning to go in for lunch. We all stood around, saying we had checked the website, and couldn't understand why they were closed? Not sure if they are closed for the season or we're just closed on that particular day. But I do wish they had updated their website. read more

I have longed to try this place for three years due to social media posts. Drove in from Providence. Sat on deck. View was spectacular.it was not busy; maybe half full. We waited sooooo good long for the appetizers that I got up and asked if they were forgotten. The food was mediocre at best. I had a quahog; nothing special. And waitress didn't provide butter so it was dry. BF got lobster bisque. He was happy enough. We shared the seafood trio- scallops, shrimp and fish. Again, mediocre at best. The mashed potatoes had a lot of heat. The garlic broccoli was not very flavorful. I had to raise my glass to the waitress for more water bc she never came buy to check on us. Once I asked for the check she did come quickly to get it. My boyfriend wasn't ready. We took out $ and waiting- a long time for her to come back. Instead we watched her talking to locals, taking photos for them. Chatting and chatting. Hugging. Saying goodbye. Then going to another table to chat with them. She started to clear their plates and I motioned the bill pay. Lord, I was exhausted. We are foodies and go out to a nice place once a week- I won't go back here and I would never recommend it. Same quality food at 99 with better service. read more

Husband ordered a grilled platter. I ordered the chowder and clam cakes to split. His was horrifically over cooked. I heard the table behind us had the same complaints. Although mine tasted fine, I later spent the night vomiting. Zero stars. No thank you! read more

Who was good but gave me a muscle that was not ready to eat and that been very dangerous but other than that, the food was very nice. My bread didn't come out until my entrée came out and the bread is supposed to come out as soon as you sit down although the bread was very good. They also did not get my butter. After asking several times, the ambience was very clean and love the end and outdoor choice. read more

Fish was very good and lobster bisque. Unfortunately the vent above was dripping water on the table. The kind waitress told management & the reply was okay. ?!? Meanwhile I dried off my belongings and table. Disappointed. read more

Nice friendly staff, Beautiful views of the water. Made reservations for 5:15 PM on a Friday night in August. It was a perfect night to be outside dining. Was forewarned that the table could be occupied for only 90 minutes. Upon arrival found the restaurant half full and upon departure about the same. Point? Not sure reservations or time restrictions come into play here. Ordered the fish and chips and requested the fish be broiled. Though they broil other seafood, I was not allowed to have it that way. Fried it was. It came with a side of coleslaw with the option of french fries or another veggie, I chose steamed garlic broccoli. The fish was heavily breaded and not a lot of substance. The coleslaw and broccoli were ok. Overall the food was... meh. The pan seared fish sandwich (minus the roll) came with a nice sized fish. Like the fish and chips, pan seared fish was ok. Two bar drinks, nothing fancy were $18. Didn't find the place particularly clean and there was nothing special about the ambience outside of water views. read more

We visited because of their rating for Clam Cakes. Ordered the Clam Cakes and the Rhode Island Clam Chowder. The Clam Cakes were good, not the best but good! The nubs weren't as large as the best but not tiny. What we were disappointed about was the Chowder. It is supposed to be the clear version, made from the clam broth, which it was. What Quitos did to it, was an add celery, too much celery. They took a possibly decent Chowder and turned it into a version of chicken soup. They had two other Chowders, New England style, and Manhattan, which we did not try. If you enjoy the clear broth, the best we have had is found at the Bayside Restaurant in Westport, MA. read more

Ridiculous prices! Fish and chips was over 40 bucks! Really?? Never, ever again. Plus the fish was soggy as you know what! read more

If you love seafood with a view, this is your place. I have been a repeat visitor at this restaurant with my family for years. We are all huge seafood lovers and my father was a scalloper so he is very picky about the freshness of his seafood. That being said, he LOVES this place. They can get very busy so make sure you make a reservation. The service is always great and the food is even better! Don't walk..run! read more

Great place to go to sit by the water and have some delicious seafood. The views are great.

3 stars for the food. Negative infinity for the nose-ringed young woman at the takeout counter. After barking at me to come inside because the takeout window was broken, she angrily told me there was no such thing as chowder and 3 clam cakes - which was clearly listed on the takeout menu. After I pointed the menu item out to her she snorted "that's the children's menu and it only comes with a cup of chowder." I said "I'll have a bowl and 3 clam cakes and a Coke." 5 minutes later she comes out with the bag and there is no Coke in it. She had disappeared in the kitchen so I had to ask for her to come back. When I told her there was no Coke she said "you didn't order it." I told her I'm not in the habit of imagining I ordered a soft drink. She continued to argue with me, then put a Pepsi on the counter, said she didn't want my money and to never come back. Don't worry Miss Personality, I won't. read more

Though it was midweek in late June, we found this luncheon spot to be busy and parking difficult. My wife and I did not require luncheon menus as we had decided beforehand to order clam cakes and RI chowder. The chowder was barely okay while the clam cakes a disappointment. In the 6 clam cakes we shared only 2 pieces of clam were identified and the overall flavor of both the chowder and clam cakes was disappointing. read more

I enjoyed this casual spot, and we ate outside in the heated patio. As a gluten free diner, I appreciated the guidance I got from our server. The pan seared cod dish was excellent and a safe gluten free choice. The smashed potatoes and Italian steamed broccoli were delicious, as was the seafood chowder! read more

Have been here many, many times over the years. First visit in COVID TIME. FOOD is always great. Mostly fried New England seafood. We were surprised at the COVID preparations for cold weather. We found the outdoor eating area pretty much closed up with lots or heaters. More closed than I was comfortable. However, tables are appropriately spaced, there's plexi glass everywhere and the walls were drafty enough to disburse most of anything evil. I guess I have to accept things as they are. Compared to other places they seem to be taking things seriously so I'll try to get back before they go back to Florida. read more

We stopped in here after biking the East Bay bike path. What a hidden gem. The lobster roll, stuffy and clam strips were amazing. Our server was friendly and attentive. It was a great lunch atmosphere and would definitely recommend for a casual, impromptu meal. read more

Best lobster bisque in RI hands down. Clam cakes are on point as well. You won't see any cakes with no clams in them here folks, these are loaded!! read more

Food was okay not super memorable although it came highly recommended especially the seafood stew and we didn't order it. Service was decent especially the waitress, she was a 5 star employee. This place is kid friendly but the inside was freezing and the outside was hot. read more

The food is delicious especially the lobster bisque. Don't know why they don't offer a complimentary coffee refill. read more

Service was great and food was very good fish was not overcooked like a lot of restaurants

Love this little seaside hole in the wall that has some of the best seafood in the state! Being off season, we found great parking and we were seated right away and offered the choice of inside or outdoor seating. It was a beautiful day, so we opted to sit on the deck, which had been closed in with portable vinyl windows. Being a seafood junkie, the menu is among my favorite anywhere. So. Many. Choices. October calls for chowder and that decision was easy, since they offer a sampling of all three! I first ate the Rhode Island chowder, which is clear. Absolutely heavenly with tender, sweet bits of clam and just enough of an unidentified spice. Next up was the Manhattan, or red. I don't like mine too tomatoey and this was perfect, again with just enough herbs and spices. Lastly came the New England style, or white. It was thick, creamy and oh so delicious. Each 4 ounce serving came in a glass bowl that resembled a short drinking glass - perfect for sipping the last few drops. To follow my chowder experience, I ordered the crab cakes, intrigued by the honey ginger sauce. Again, they hit the nail on the head. They were amazing and the sauce had just a hint of both ingredients so that it paired nicely with the crab and did not overwhelm. My date, on the other hand, being a very sheltered consumer of all foods that are not meat & potatoes, ordered the cheese burger. Normally, I'd scoff at such a culinary blunder (okay, there may have been some minor sarcasm involved), but knowing him, I couldn't argue. The menu described it as charbroiled Angus beef, so at least it was a real burger and not a frozen substitute to appease the non-seafood eaters. He enjoyed it and even shared his fries. Before departing, I went I side to use the restroom - Holy coziness! The fireplace was going and it was so nice! Perfect for an October day!! read more

Went there craving fried clams on a beautiful Summer night. We sat at the bar where it was comfortable with a nice breeze and waited 15 minutes before the bartender came over to ask us if we wanted menus... yes but we would love a drink first. Not blaming her, the place was full and only one bartender! Someone else at the bar ordered fried clams and I thought that the portion was quite small however I discovered that it was the appetizer for 13 bucks. So I assumed, shame on me that for 28 bucks I would get double that with fries or coleslaw as the dinner option. Well there was no double clams in unless you considered the batter! Grossly thick in batter and the bellies were just as chewy as the necks! Totally over dredged and over cooked! Will never be going back, has definitely gone downhill. Very disappointed. read more

Great location on the water. Nice menu but food was oversauched (shrimp scampi) and the lobster roll saturated with mayonnaise. Good service and ambiance. read more

First time here on a chilly Father's Day evening. They were out of hot chocolate and out of two of their 4 specials for the night and we found out later that they were out of a dessert. At that point they should really not give out the specials menu and just tell the consumers what's left. We had to ask for water, had to ask for napkins, had to ask for refills and even the check after finishing dessert for over half an hour. Maybe they were understaffed? The "clam" chowder was all potatoes. Not sure if it was because it was due to the fact that it was 7 pm and we got what was left over??? The lobster roll was as described; nothing to brag about. The sweet potato fries were cold. The salmon was GREAT. It was a large cut and also cooked very well. But the all sides were cold. The chicken parm was dry and the spaghetti was cold. I took two bites and moved it around. After waiting an hour why bother sending it back? We just won't come back. What's with the cigarette butts all over? On the far left where I saw staff go out for breaks. At least have a staff member pick them up if they are that inconsiderate. read more

Always consistent fresh prepared Seafood. Abundant lobster rolls and pan seared specials.

Loved the lobster roll so much we went back again in 3 days! Definitely recommend the lobster roll! They put an entire lobster's meat in a perfectly toasted brioche bun, drizzled with butter. The lobster is super fresh! Also try the calamari! Everything we ordered was delicious, and you can eat by the water with a beautiful view! read more

We were running late for the Prudence Island ferry, so we didn't have time to stop an eat under the tent, however we did call in our take out while we were traveling down 114 through Warren and by the time we got to Quito's in Bristol, 10 minutes later, our food was ready for us to grab and go. We ended up eating it in the park while we waited for the ferry. The clam cakes are irresistible. We couldn't even wait until we got to the park to tuck in. The fried belly clam platter is so large and more reasonably priced than other places. The sweet potato fries that came with the fish tacos were also plentiful and amazingly good. What a super summer picnic! read more

Came here a few times but found food to be decent but today was bad. Food came out cold and tastes like junk food. Maybe because it was late in the day. read more

Just had a lobster that was awfull. Stuck to the shell and was tasteless. Probably DOA

Initially, I was impressed with how tasty the food was but will never go back due the amount of rudeness received at the end of the night. A girl (who had not been our server) stomped up to our table and a temper tantrum was basically thrown. Apparently they had a reservation that had been waiting- at no point had that ever been made known to us- and she rudely told us to leave. Our own personal server was wonderful and it is a shame that the later girl ruined any positive experience while there. Overall, good experience until the end. Hopefully they will re-evaluate their staff and who they should have speaking to the customers on behalf of them. read more

I've been going to Quitos since my RWU college days (so 20+ years ago) and I've never been disappointed! I bring friends, family, and acquaintances to dine in. The food is good and so reasonably priced, compared to other seafood restaurants in the area. The casual setting is comfortable and it's great to be right near the water. read more

We were a party of 5 on a grey Wednesday night. Our orders ranged from two appetizers to 5 entrees totaling close to $250 with tips. We would characterize our meals as good but not great especially given the price. The caprese salad - 3 slices of store bought tomatoes was not worth $15! Skip it. Several entrees of the casserole were stuffed with ample seafood ingredients and described as good. The mixed seafood dish contained ample ingredients but the white sauce lacked any taste. The service was Luke-warm as were the potato's and vegetables. A good but not great meal. The kitchen/chef needs a wake-up call given their prices! read more

Great lobster roll!! Best you'll ever have in the state. It is a bit expensive but you won't be sorry.

Quito's is hit or miss depending on who is in the kitchen on any given night. (Based on repeat visits with enough frequency to detect a pattern.) One night the seafood can be prepared just right, and the sunset so perfect, you could call Quito's your favorite place by the water. Come again, and you can leave disappointed because it didn't measure up to prior visits. For example, on our last try, the fried oysters arrived cold and overly caked in flour that was not crispy. (Yuck.) Even the fries were cold, too. And the half-and-half seafood platter came with just four scallops (at $30 a plate). Why come back then? You keep hoping it will be as good as your best memory. But too often it isn't. read more

We were headed to the Lobster Pot (which was recommended to us) and it was closed. Quickly, we called Quito's and they were open until 8 pm. We had lobster sinners, 1.25 lb and 1.75 pound. The lobsters were juicy and delectable. The star of my dinner was the sautéed kale which was positively mouthwatering and flavorful. The service was fantastic. We sat outside near the heaters and it was quite comfortable. read more

Excellent seafood place with parking and nice views. Best steamers I had all summer! Good menu with something for everybody. Family run with attentive service. read more

Beautiful location overlooking Bristol Bay. They have the best clam cakes I've had in a long time and the ambience is light and fun. They are very busy in the Summer months and they do a great job getting your food out quickly. They are a little pricey but the food and service are great. Parking is limited. read more

This was honestly a great find for my friends and I at the last minute. Quito's is a small restaurant right on the water halfway between Providence and Newport, Rhode Island. It's really easy to miss, but it's an experience well worth! First of all, the atmosphere was very relaxed and was beautiful in the summer. The restaurant is right on the water and during sunset, it's very picturesque with the boats all hanging out on the water. Service was fantastic, as all the wait staff was very nice and helpful. Our waitress gave great recommendations and was very attentive to our needs. The food: so many seafood options. It can take a while and be overwhelming if it's your first time here. My friends and I order the clam chowder, crab cakes, stuffed quahog, lobster roll, pan seared trio, and strip clams seafood platter. Not only did the food come out in a timely manner, but it was also fantastic. The quality of the food was top notch and tasty. The clam chowder was warm, the lobster roll was savory, and the seafood platters were filling and fantastic. I highly recommend this Quito's! My friends and I stopped by on our way back to Providence and were not disappointed. 10/10 would go back again. read more

This was an amazing lunch spot! Someone I know recommended it to me and it didn't disappoint! It was kinda out of the way from our weekend in Newport but worth having lunch with an awesome water view. I got the lobster roll hot with butter and my boyfriend had the fish tacos! We split everything and it was great! We also had some oysters! Would go back! read more
