    What a great way to spend the Winter Solstice. It’s 20 degrees out and we’re at Pot au Feu having a piping hot bowl of the best Onion Soup you can find in New England. Wonderful melted gruyere cheese over a perfectly sized French bread crouton with onions and a tasty steaming broth. Of course, we had our usual Pot du Chocolat for desert with coffee. Our waitress Antigone guided us through a great meal with a bottle of nouveau Beaujolais.

    Great place to eat in Newport. Tuna Tartare tacos were outstanding and NY strip steak was cooked perfectly and seasoned well. Cherrystones were fresh and the scallops we good but a little salty. Have visited the bar on the second floor which is nice and cozy and great for alcohol infused coffees but is hard to catch open. Definitely on my list of favorite Newport restaurants.

    Wonderful pre theater dinner. Scallops wrapped in bacon, crab & lobster ravioli, and lechee (milk cake) for desert. I don’t think I’ve had a better meal or dining experience!!! Our waiter was phenomenal, he knew we were going to the theater as was every other party in the restaurant, our cocktails and meal were served at a perfect pace. We so enjoyed the dining experience and we had more than enough time to make the show. We’re still discussing which was better the dinner or the show 😁

    Love the ahi tuna wontons! Favorite appetizer. Chicken piccata excellent as usual. The meatloaf recipe needs some reworking, more breadcrumbs maybe. It was so dense that it had to be cut with a knife and fork. It tastes very nice but needs to be less dense. This was not a onetime experience. The meatloaf is always tough.

    It was a very busy night. When we went in, we were greeted by friendly staff and just had to wait a moment to check in as they were taking names for a wait list. With so many waiting, I thought we would have to too, but our table was ready to go and were seated immediately. (Very happy we used Opentable!) Our server was attentive and friendly as well. Drinks and food were delivered quickly. Took a star away because the clam cakes were a bit too salty and the fries were soggy. However, everything thing else was delicious. Overall it's a great place for good food and drinks at an affordable price. We’ll definitely go back.
