  • Great for creative cocktails
  • Charming
  • Good for groups
We’re an eclectic blend of Newport vibes — from the historic bank vault behind our marble bar to the Bellevue Ave-inspired details in our lounge. Our cocktails bring you back to the Newport of decades ago. We’re proud to serve quality, locally sourced victuals (it rhymes with ‘skittles’) — all in an immersive dining experience.

    The interior spaces are really pretty, our server Sarah was wicked sweet and gave us amazing recommendations, while being really friendly and efficient. On top of all that the cheese selection aren't generic and are all special and delicious, the risotto with honey and mushrooms was one of the more interesting apps I've had this year, and the agnolotti special was awesome.

    The food was excellent, presentation, flavor etc., with the exception of my slightly undercooked sea bass. Great atmosphere and vibe but a very young, unsophisticated crowd. When we arrived for a 6:45 reservation most of the tables inside were empty, yet the hostess seated us outside. When I asked to be moved to inside she said the tables were all reserved. It made no sense, since when you make a reservation you do not choose where to sit. She eventually agreed to move us inside but seemed a little annoyed by it. Our young waitress more than made up for it with efficient, friendly service.

    We had a wonderful dinner here. The service was excellent and food delicious! We each had something different and loved it. We shared the meatballs, whipped ricotta and bread service - all of which were excellent.

    This was a last minute choice, and we loved it from the moment we got there. The manager was kind, personable, and attentive. The waiter was efficient, the food was delicious, and the bartender fixed excellent drinks. The atmosphere was casual and comfortable. We would definitely return if in the area again.

    We had a fantastic experience. We loved the whole experience from the atmosphere, the food, the drinks, but our waitress was spectacular. We thoroughly enjoyed it.
