Always a special treat to dine at The Farmhouse! Loved my burger, our table also loved the Jidori Chicken, and the mussels. The Butternut Squash Soup was reportedly meh. Desserts a bit disappointing today (not usually) — can’t recommend the berry sorbet (odd-tasting), and the Vanilla Pot de crème was a bit bland according to the friend who had the soup. Our waiter was like a warm hug, the kind of server you look forward to his check-ins!

Dining at Tommy Bahamas in Newport is always wonderful. The food and service are absolutely, and consistently, superb. The food is fresh, delicious, and original. The ambiance is also lively and beautiful. We were disappointed though that there is a new corporate policy that they won't serve ordered food for dogs on the patio. This reverses a multi-decade policy which old-time customers like myself (more than 26 years) really enjoyed. Please reconsider!

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.
