AAA Diamond Inspector Notes
Steamed local lobsters, pan-roasted shellfish, and a daily happy hour at the raw bar draw crowds to this local favorite. Friendly staff and fresh-tasting seafood make up for the lack of décor in the cozy downstairs bar during the season. For a more polished setting, diners can head upstairs to a dining room with a classic nautical Newport feel or choose the outdoor covered deck, which overlooks the bustling nightlife below and the harbor across the street.
