Guidebook for Newport
Food Scene
This is the best food and service you will have in Newport. I highly recommend making a reservation because it has limited seating, but this restaurant is by far the best in the area. The couple that opens the place are amazing, friendly and full of life. Additionally, the drinks they offer are the best that Newport has to offer.
