    Amazing food and great service Bridgett! This is my 2nd time dining at Telefèric!! Excellent service, very attentive and the quality of food is great. Paella, Jamon, Wellington, kebabs, and shrimp were incredible. If you have room for dessert, please try the cookie in a skillet and churros. I will be returning for a night of great food and service.

    I reserved a table at 7:30 pm for my boyfriend’s birthday so we could see the fireworks at 9:30 pm. We self parked at the hotel and our server validated it for 2 hrs. A heads up, take the West elevator to enter the restaurant. The fire works were further than we thought however, the vibes and ambiance were SO spectacular props to the DJ mixing songs that we would dance to at our table. Our server was so amazing she gave us complimentary birthday cake slice and took perfect pictures of us. We ordered Margherita pizza, truffle fries, their seasonal tempura hand roll, and churros, all were 11/10 we ate so good. We will remember this special night forever thank you for having us. Hope to dine again soon.

    Despite a very busy boat parade night, this restaurant delivered on all counts. Outdoor patio was warm and provided great ambience. So many great and healthy choices on the menu, all offered at reasonable prices, particularly for Newport waterfront.

    It was amazing! It’s like having a private VIP booth just for you and your date or group of people. Daniel was great and Ryan the manager came by to make sure we were getting stellar service. This is an awesome place for dates, group events, business meetings, and salsa dancing.
