I had the pasta w/Bolognese sauce which was wonderful. Desserts to die for. Service was attentive and prompt. It is worth a trip to Newport just to dine at this restaurant! more

My husband and I eat here 3-4 times per year and we absolutely love it. It is one of those places where every bite is utterly fantastic. The service is excellent, the venue is charming and the owners are lovely. The side spinach dish is to die for. There is a nice wine selection. The do not serve cocktails, beer... more

Very delicious meal however, the portions are small. This was the first time ever at a restaurant that my wife and two daughters (17 & 20) cleaned their plates. A testament to both the quality and lack of quantity. The girls both ordered pasta dishes, which is not something you would expect the kitchen to skimp on. more

We were trying to decide where to go for dinner and asked the hotel van driver for an idea. Said we would not be disappointed and he was right.

Needless to say it was cozy, intimate, albeit nothing fancy... more

Mamma Luisa's is by far my favorite restaurant in Newport. It is elegant, intimate, romantic dining in a converted house at the lower end of Thames Street. The food has always been excellent every time I've dined there - portions just the right size, flavors perfect, wine and port selections ample. Desserts are great, too. A dinner for two that... more

Mamma Luisa Restaurant is the best Italian Restaurant in Newport. The restaurant has a cozy Italian decor and soft Italian music playing. The food is the best, most authentic Italian food I have ever had in America outside of Little Italy. Reasonable prices. I have been to other Italian restaurants in Newport but none of the other Italian restaurants compare... more

We had reservations that we made for a Saturday night for which we had to provide our credit card info to guarantee the reservation. It was an early evening hour for 4 adults in their 60's. When we arrived my wife, who is disabled, saw the steep, winding staircase leading upstairs and told the host that she could not walk... more
