In the noted Relais et Chateax Castle Hill property with terrific water views, especially at sunset. Nice easy four mile drive from downtown harbor area. Spiffy place. Out on a promontory on the harbor where Grace Kelly stayed while filming High Society. Excellent wine list at appropriate pricing. Top notch cuisine. I thoroughly enjoyed the pork and clam entree, notwithstanding... More

Very quiet dining room even with other people in there, felt a little like being in an exam room. Nice staff. Complicated menu options so we just plumped for 3 course. Food was nice but pretty pricey all in all. Views made it worthwhile especially watching sunset

This place knows what they are doing. I had the sword fish at the Sunday brunch and it was the tenderest tasty sward fish I have ever had. Waiters were knowledgable. $150 for a Family of 4. Views from the grounds are the best in newport and maybe in all of New England. make reservations in advance and spend some... More

The food and service was excellent. I cannot say that I disliked anything about the decor or food. I loved the free afternoon tea also. The room was cozy and the views were unbelievable.

The food was good, service was excellent. If you are looking for a scenic and romantic spot, this is the place. My only negative comments are the fact that maintaince was being done to the lawn on my visit which took away from the beauty of the view.

We try to keep our menu interesting and unique by adding or changing dishes every 3-4 weeks, a few at a time, based on what is coming in with the best quality at... More
