    Cornbread  Mac & Cheese
    Jason A.

    Update 8/16/25 Our second time and zero regrets! Our eyes were bigger than our stomachs and I felt terrible leaving so much on the table as there was NO ROOM! Those nachos can feed a table of 4 AND IF YOU ADD A PROTEIN TO IT, it's a meal in itself! We saw another table with the nachos with a protein on it and they were eating a salad. Smart! Us...not so much We got their nachos as an app with no protein and it came with a guacamole induced sour cream which was Devine! Of course we got their trio of ribs, chicken and brisket We also got their lobster roll which was made to perfection which is a feat in itself Sides were mac and cheese and cornbread which is always full of flavor!

    Summer is back in Newport. Smoke House is open. Another great dinner tonite, our waitress Emily was great, very personable and professional. Excellent chopped salad with fresh lobster salad. The brisket was cooked perfectly with German potato salad with the perfect amount of dill and fresh light Cole slaw sides.

    Pulled Pork Nachos, Cornbread, Mac & Cheese

    The best cornbread I've ever had! Amazing experience, we sat out on the patio and it was very nice. The service was great and the food came out super fast, the nachos and the mac and cheese were both delicious!

    PULLED PORK SANDWICH
    Rebecca C.

    Beautiful outdoor seating almost near the water. Indoor seating is inside a tent. Pork sandwich was a little tougher than expected and drier, but they keep sauce on the table so you can use at your discretion. Coleslaw was a great addition, and it came with a freshly made pickle! Fries were really tasty.

    NEW ENGLAND CLAM CHOWDER
    Stephanie L.

    The best meal I had in Newport. Surprisingly also the best lobster roll I had this trip. Never thought to order a lobster roll at a smokehouse but I had just arrived to Newport and this was my first meal. I did not regret it at all. The clam chowder here was also one of the best I had. Huge portion on the pulled pork burger, come hungry!

    We just had some amazing drinks, amazing food food, and amazing service here. Our bartender Stephanie was so cool and made us feel right at home. I would highly recommend coming here !

    Brisket
    Lizeth G.

    My husband and I recently visited Smoke House after more than ten years. I remember going here during college, and it was just as good as I remembered it!! If you go and you only get one thing - get the nachos. We ordered our with pulled pork and they were hefty. They layered their nachos with cheese and toppings reaching even the nachos at the bottom of the tray. This is always a sign of quality nachos. We also ordered ribs and the brisket. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone flavorful. The brisket was sooo tender and has amazing texture. However, I really wanted it to have more flavor. I should have asked for BBQ sauce honestly. We ordered the red sangria bucket to share and thoroughly enjoyed this! My husband was skeptical at first but came around once he tried it! I would 100% come back to Smoke House to try a few new things but always order the nachos!

    Outside bar
    Danielle V.

    This review is just for drinks and atmosphere cause we didn't try any of the food. They have a large outside bar that is right on the street so great for people watching and lots of TVs. Loved being outside but covered so you are in the shade. We got a couple of beers. They also had rising tide on tap which I'm from Maine so that was cool to see that! Overall I would come back!

    Great spot to go to in Newport, RI! Came here two years ago and just recently had it again this…read moreMay. The food is so good here! Very fresh and honestly, very affordable for the aesthetic, quality, and taste. Plus the service is great. I've had their pastas, entrees, apps, pizza, and drinks and there is nothing you can go wrong with. My personal favorites is their kale salad, chianti marsala braised beef and mushroom tagliatelle. Again, the quality is great and everything is seasoned/ flavored well. Plus their pastas are homemade! They also give free bread, who doesn't love that? I cannot recommend this place enough. Perfect for a date night or night out with friends.

We loved the olives and the roasted beets! The whipped Gorgonzola was a perfect match for the beets, not overpowering at all. After much thought over the menu, I decided to go with the short rib. The short rib was not fatty and it was super tender. I was able to pull it apart easily with my fork. The mashed potatoes were great and complimented the dish with the short rib sauce. I wasn't a fan of the tequila drink that I ordered, but my glass of wine paired very well with the short rib.

It is not heavily seasoned and it was tender and flavorful. The juices surrounded the steak, really that's all it needed. I did order a side of Demi, but hardly used it. We sat at the upstairs bar and had the best service and even got to watch the Red Sox game. 22 Bowen's Wharf has a crazy selection of steaks, I'm sure I didn't pick their best, but it was exactly what I was looking for. We started with the local farm stand salad with fresh burrata cheese and locally gown tomatoes. It was amazing...nothing like fresh summer grown tomatoes and basil from Rhode island. The bartender sold me on the key lime pie as they make the key lime pie with key limes outsourced from the Florida keys. Always a great meal at 22 Bowen's.

When making our reservation, we noticed there was an option to mark that we were celebrating an anniversary, and I have to say, they truly acknowledged it in such a thoughtful way. When we arrived, we were greeted by a friendly hostess who immediately wished us a happy anniversary. We were then escorted upstairs to our table, where we were treated to a beautiful view overlooking the harbor. The restaurant itself is elegant without feeling stuffy, making it the perfect setting for a special occasion. Our server, Cailin, greeted us promptly, wished us a happy anniversary, and offered us a complimentary champagne toast. While neither of us are big champagne drinkers, it was such a thoughtful gesture that immediately made the evening feel even more special. It's little touches like that that turn a nice dinner into a memorable celebration. Moreover, it was just nice to hear the champagne flutes clink. (Plus the champagne was great!) To drink, we both ordered the dragon fruit margaritas. They were not only delicious but absolutely beautiful, with their vibrant pink color and striking black salt rim. To start, we shared the Caesar salad (without anchovies) and the stuffed artichoke. The Caesar dressing tasted homemade and was packed with flavor. The stuffed artichoke was easily the best I've ever had--perfectly cooked and served with a divine green goddess sauce that I could have eaten by the spoonful. My husband also ordered the clam chowder, which he absolutely loved. I don't eat seafood, but I tried a spoonful of the broth and even I thought it was excellent. For our entrées, my husband ordered the pork, and I chose the New York strip steak. Both were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. I paired my steak with both the horseradish crema and Bowen's steak sauce, while my husband enjoyed the chimichurri with his pork. Every sauce complemented the dishes beautifully. For sides, we ordered the seasonal vegetables, which were perfectly cooked green beans, the four-cheese potatoes au gratin with crumbled bacon, and the truffle mac and cheese. The potatoes were rich and comforting, the green beans provided the perfect balance, and the truffle mac and cheese was absolutely incredible, not to mention a very generous portion. Before our entrées arrived, our table was presented with beautiful steak knives, another thoughtful detail that elevated the experience and made cutting into the steak effortless. By the end of dinner we were completely full, so instead of dessert we each ordered an espresso martini. They were perfectly balanced and the ideal way to end such an incredible meal. From the stunning harbor views and elegant atmosphere to the impeccable service and outstanding food, every part of our evening felt special. We left feeling celebrated, and we're so happy we chose 22 Bowen's for our first wedding anniversary. If you're looking for a restaurant in Newport to celebrate a milestone or simply enjoy an exceptional meal, this is one I wholeheartedly recommend.

Bread pudding and Tavern Candy Bar are delightful dessert options 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.

The mussels were the standout of the meal and the best I've personally had. They were incredibly fresh with no fishy smell and the broth was so flavorful. The bread that came with it was perfect for soaking up every last bit of the broth. The salmon was very fresh and cooked well. The shrimp scampi was also really good. The clam chowder was an 8 out of 10 for me. Not the best I've ever had but definitely one of the better ones. Pricing was mid range and felt fair for the quality of the food and the portions. Overall, we were really happy with the meal. Great service, fresh seafood, generous kids' portions, and a fun atmosphere. I'd definitely come back, especially for the mussels.
