Moe's, in Old Town Newport.: Moe's, in Old Town Newport.
  • Tip Rating:
  • Old pictures and signs adorn the walls and ceiling. Just try and figure out a particularly criptic hand carved sign hanging on a beam. Good luck!
    Often crowded, so, try to hit the place at a little bit of an off hour.

    The clam chowder is most excellent and world famous.

  • Mo's....not the annex, but the original.
    This place is just wonderful, it used to be just a garage. The people who had it built it up to quite more & other locations, but this little modest garage is the best. You sit at basically picnic tables. Bobby Kennedy came here while he was running for President, just before he was killed. Photos of this on the walls. The perfect, very casual place to go after deep sea fishing all day, or just sight seeing the area. Highly recommended!!

    Clam Chowder...the best EVER!!

    FishTails Cafe: Best kept secret for breakfast!
  • Satisfaction:
  • Most people in Newport know about the Whales Tale Cafe down on the bayfront (it is good-but getting slightly pricey and crowded), this little known place on the South-side has some amazingly creative dishes and good prices too. Try the berry french toast for a big surprise ( I hope you like cream cheese!) or for something authentic to the area try the very tasty salmon hash. [as a side avoid the link sausages, choose bacon instead]. Overall for the price and the food, we gave this place an outstanding A -.

    Marion Berry French Toast...You have never had french toast like this and you may never again!

  • This is a cozy little restaurant run by a delightful family, featuring dishes you won't find at most Chinese restaurants. Try the Rockfish!

    Newport Steak and Seafood Lounge: Food OK, but not impressed
  • Satisfaction:
  • We visited this restaurant out of season on a cold and wet April evening, so it was pretty quiet. A few locals at the bar, a couple of other dining customers.

    Waitress service was reasonable, food OK, prices average.

    The Chicken Cordon Bleu was breadcrumb wrapped - haven't seen that before, but it was good enough.

    The place emptied by about 9.30, just us drinking some after dinner drinks at the table. The cleaning guy came in and sat on a stool in the middle of the bar area, vacuum by his side and stared at us, giving us the evil eye continuously until we gave up and left after about 30 minutes.

    Summary: Give it a miss if you don't want to be made to feel uncomfortable and be hustled out early.

    There are plenty of other places with as good or better food that will welcome your custom and your money until the more sual closing times.

    Newport Steak and Seafood Lounge: If you don't want hepatitis stay away
  • Satisfaction:
  • We stopped there because Moe's was crowded. Now I know why this place was empty. I ordered a steak--Well done--emphasized that I did not want to see pink and told the waitress to make sure the cook understood that I wanted it cooked all the way through. When it came to me I told the waitress to wait a second. I cut the steak and it was bleeding. I've seen cows wounded worse and still recover to lead fully functional lives. The waitress took the steak back and 5 minutes later brought it out again. Still bleeding. I told her to bring the manager. I asked him if he hired the cook or inherited him and if the cook was cooking for himself or for the customer. When I showed him the steak, he apologized, but it was too late. I then pointed out the cold soup, that my friend's food had been served cold, the butter was frozen and we were leaving and not coming back and not paying for the food since we had not eaten it and it was not what we ordered. The waitress pick up the butter and put it back in the same big bowl that I suppose would be served to someone else. Just wondering how many other servings of butter had been pulled and replaced in that same bowl and if anyone who had eaten of it had a disease?

    Shilo Inn Restaurant: Shilo Inn Restaurant
    Even though it is a motel restaurant, the restuarant at Shilo Inn features the local seafood. Newport is the capital for Pacific Dungenous Crab. So of course, I had to have the Dungenous Crab Cakes. The cakes were a little bit different than what you find in the east. But it was good. The food at the restaurant was excellent. But the cost was a little too pricey.

    Whale's Tales: Don't miss their "Mousse In A Bag" dessert!!!
  • Satisfaction:
  • The decor is diverse, fun & captivating. This is definately a diamond in the rough as it can be easily missed. It's on the corner to the left at bottom of hill. Look for decorative flags hanging in front. Don't give up if you can't seem to find it, ask a local retailer. If you've passed the seals on your right or aquarium entrance, then you've passed it. It's worth every bit of the wandering back & forth trying to find it if having trouble. Simpler to ask a local shop as soon as you get to the bottom of hill.

    Can't go wrong with whatever you choose. However, the most wonderful dessert I've everd had is Mousse in a Bag! Be sure to save room, and may want to split it due it's richness.

    My mom & I were invited here by Phil Kaiser and his wife, Denise. Being locals, they know the good places to eat in Newport and we were sure glad they chose this place!

    The restaurant sits right beside the beach and is adjoined to the Hallmark Inn. The ambience is semi-formal but most patrons were dressed casually.

    I ordered a medley of seafood that was served with rice and vegetables. It was absolutely delicious!
