    Entrance way

    Excellent food and service. We had pizza, wings, and salad and would order all again. Highly recommend.

    Caesar Salad*

    Winfield's has done a great job with their patio! Live music! Perfect spot for a drink! The service was excellent from start to finish!! The food on the other hand was....well underwhelming. First, the variety on the menu wasn't great. Luckily it at least had one of everything. It was like dishes tried too hard. The flavor combos were weird. I did love the mashed potatoes! But overall all five of us left thinking....nah, we probably wouldn't come back.

    Lobster Mac & Cheese*

    A long time standout on Block Island. A must go to, we go twice for every four nights we are there. The service is always excellent. The cocktails, wine, and food are always excellent. The Lobster Mac is a must. The tuna was exceptional this year.

    I don't like to give negative review for restaurants but I'm sorry it's just a very bad experience. My rating solely based on the taste of food, regardless the restaurant's environment is ok , little loud, nice waitress... So let's talk about food. The appetizers scallops was soft & juicy, you should try. Lobster mac and cheese is decent. I had cod... The fish itself was fresh.. however.. what's wrong with the chef????? Whoever cook this dish totally screw up and taste like he/she had put 1 cup of salt making the sauce!!! If you have high blood pressure PLEASE don't order it! I feel sorry for my father in law he has high blood pressure and he ordered it too since the cod soaked in the sauce, it's EXTREMELY Salty!!! My tongue cannot taste everything else. I just end up drinking ice water and asking for extra bread to fill my stomach for the night since we arrived the island late and it's like 9ish pm. If you love the cod fish ..... And still want to come to eat ... I'd suggest you tell them forget about the sauce. Other dishes i will give 3 stars. **** Note: i told the manager who had long hair he ignored my feedbacks, lucky my waitress took my feedbacks seriously , the salt really making me sick and shaking .. i drank 4 glases water to flush it. She then took off the cod fish from the bill. Sorry won't come back again.

    The voluptuous hearty Mac and cheese.

    This restaurant seriously exceeded our expectations, great service, delicious food, and good atmosphere. Good for small parties or groups. Drinks: the cocktails are delicious, they also have beer and wine. For coffee at the end of dinner we ordered a cappuccino which was very good. Appetizers: we ordered the Winfield's salad which was delicious. My husband and i split a large salad and it was perfect. You can order a small or large. I ordered the lobster Mac and cheese from the appetizer section for dinner but you can totally get it as a appetizer or dinner. The portion is large and hearty, very good and copious amounts of larger lobster meat. Dinner: my husband ordered the pan seared salmon and the flavors and portion size was amazing. I was really impressed and blown away. Definitely recommend. TIP**** save your receipt and you can use it after to go over to Kitten's and this receipt excerpts you from paying the cover charge. Great place to stop by for a fun drink to end the night.

    We had one of the best meals of our lives at The Barn last night! We started with the lamb…read morelollipops and the grilled octopus, and I had the scallops and my husband had the dry aged rib eye for our entrees. I cannot say enough good things. Each dish was incredible. The service was also 10/10. Our server Barrington was awesome, he was so knowledgeable about the menu, and he was so funny and kind. Was an unforgettable dinner!

    Although this rustic restaurant has earned a reputation of being one of the fanciest restaurants on…read morethe island, be prepared to spend A LOT of money on TINY portions! I appreciate that their food is "farm to table" fresh, but the portion sizes should match the prices. Our table of ten spent an average of $320 per couple, and three of the couples had split their dinners. We did order appetizers and drinks as well. I explained my food allergies to the waitress. She relayed the info to the kitchen and did her best to accommodate me. I ordered a small charcuterie without blue cheese. It came with Prosciutto, manchego cheese wedges, pitted olives, red grapes, a few crostini, and a drop of honey. For my entree, I ordered a filet mignon. It came with dollops of instant-like mashed potatoes and prosciutto wrapped asparagus. My friend ordered a filet as well but his was cooked more than the temp he ordered. Instead of medium, it came out well done... charred on the outside, no pink, and dry. Mine, on the other hand, was cooked perfectly even though mine was medium as well. Would I come back? Only for a special occasion perhaps. ‍

    The place is quite big yet quite small. The chefs are amazing. As packed as the place was, they…read morekept up with it. They work in front of basically half the tables and always keep their cool. With as busy as they are, they don't have an enormous menu and I feel that it's better that way. I'm not sure how often they change the menu as the online page showed slightly different meals. The wait staff are plentiful and it's rather amazing how well they keep up. The way my family and I were treated upon arrival was extremely disappointing. The male host was unnecessarily disrespectful and unwelcoming from the moment we walked in, despite us being polite and having every intention of dining there. After getting a reservation online and returning, the female host/manager was also a little rude and dismissive toward us at first. That only added to the uncomfortable atmosphere we felt. Even the bartenders didn't acknowledge us. Staff would catch eye contact with us and just keep going. Thankfully, the experience improved once we were seated. Our waiter (Cam) was genuinely kind, professional, and attentive throughout the meal, and the food itself was excellent. The chefs clearly know what they're doing, because every dish was prepared beautifully and tasted amazing. It's unfortunate that such strong food and service from the waitstaff are overshadowed by the poor attitude at the front of the restaurant. A little basic respect and hospitality toward guests would make a huge difference. Growing up in the hospitality service (restaurant) then working in retail to aviation. We're all taught from the beginning. A person walks in, greet them with a smile and let them know you'll be with them shortly. Not ignore them then to be slightly rude. We all understand being busy. But don't take it out on the customers. Especially when they didn't cause your stress. I'm giving them a high score because Cam and the chefs were amazing. Even the chefs said goodnight to us and thanked us.

Great service, yummy food, good drink menu, photos of cute dogs on the wall... what more could you want after a long day at the beach? The tuna nachos were to die for. They definitely had some kick! The bread basket with the garlic butter was a nice touch. I loved my salmon and the bite I took of my partner's burger was juicy and delicious. The thick seasoned fries with the burger were also great. Unfortunately we filled up on everything and didn't save room for dessert, but we will definitely have dessert next time.

    The best thing about the place is the view- gorgeous view of the water and lots of outdoor seating…read more I feel somewhat neutrally about this, but there aren't any waiters really. Instead, you wait in line and order at the bar and they bring it to your table number. If you're looking for a fancy dinner, this isn't the place, but if you're looking for an option in between cheap and nice, this is the place. My boyfriend got the mac n cheese which was $16 (perhaps a little pricey). He said it wasn't very cheesy but personally I like it like that! I ordered the salmon and asked for just farro and corn instead of the succatash and goat cheese and all that, but they didn't bring any farro. I then asked for it and the guy asked me if I ordered it. I said yes, I know I did, and he said he'd go check, but he never came back. After 10-15 minutes I went to find the guy I asked and he seemed confused. He said "I couldn't find her" and I didn't know what he meant, but apparently he was looking for the girl who took my order? I guess to validate that I hadn't asked them to remove the farro? Very odd. A nice employee at the bar told him to just get me some farro (because it's really not that big of a deal) and he brought me a cold small plastic cup of unseasoned farro (pictured). Whole thing struck me as very odd and a little annoying. The dish was $29 which also felt a little expensive, especially without a big portion, but it's definitely more affordable than other places on the island. Overall, great view, but the rest of our experience was meh!
