Warm and unusual decor with a quaint French bistro ambience make for an inviting setting. The smells form the kitchen don't disappoint, as the staff rolls out one delicious dish after another. The maitake risotto, seared scallops, and the farm duck are must-haves. Ideal for date night or a satisfying meal on your way to Newport's clubs and bars, Tucker's... More

Ate there last night on quick Newport weekend getaway. What fantastic and delicious food. No issue with overwhelmed staff, no rude host, nothing but great food in an eclectic and cool atmosphere. Hear that Tucker may pass torch to new owners soon; I hope they keep the food and vibes going! More

This was the best meal I have had out in a long time. I am a chef and am very picky about my dinner. Many times I feel that I could have done better. Not here! Everything was perfect. My wife had the salmon and I had the lamb special. Both were perfect, Tucker greets and waits on everyone, he... More

My husband made reservations for us at this restaurant for our first wedding anniversary. It was rated one of the most romantic restraurants in Newport and all of the ratings raved about the food. All of the rave reviews we had read were absolutely true. Our waitress was great, the atmosphere was romantic yet relaxing and the food was out... More

We had a delightful dining experience at this cozy little gem. Food was superb. I had the local scallops and my partner enjoyed the duck. Service was warm. The staff seemed to genuinely enjoy their craft--from the gracious woman seating us to the jolly ole fellow who waited on us. I believe it was Tucker himself. The gentleman who assisted... More

We loved this little bistro. Our reservation was at 8:30 and we had to wait a bit at a table in the bar for other diners to stop lingering and free up a table. It's that kind of place. You want to savor your food, time, company. More

Spot on attention to detail, from the intimate Parisian decor, to the world class cuisine. Tucker's certainly made our 20 year anniversary something to remember. Stepping into this amazing little oasis brought back memories of our travels to Paris. We have spent many years living overseas, from Australia to England, dining in many wonderful restaurants - Tuckers is now our... More
