I was introduced to Puerrini's about 5 years ago and have been back there several times since. I have never had a meal there that was less than excellent. A look at their menu {puerrinis.com I believe} shows that they clearly specialize in different different preparations of veal. There are about 10 on the menu. All of the ones that... more

Puerini's makes their own pasta so my husband and I both decided on their lasagne. It was wonderful! The service was great and we would definitely go back again. more

Recently visited Newport & this restaurant was recommended by the host of the B & B I stayed at. Sat outside which was nice even though it was a little cool. The dinner was very good, I had chicken gorgonzola which was very rich. The home made pasta was quite good also. Wine by the glass was a little pricey... more

Manicotti was fresh, but served with an extremely sweet sauce. Ambiance was poor, as it made us feel like we were at the gynocologist, not an Italian Bistro. Very cold and sparse. The tables were stainless steel, with white paper draped over the middle. I swear when the waitress removed the paper before serving coffee I heard a Nurse say... more

Busy restaurant, so we booked a seat before walking through the mansions. Food was good italian fare in nice suroundings. Not the best service in the world due to a slightly disagreeable server. more

Well, after reading several good reviews on this site, and on the recommendation of our Innkeeper, my husband and I went to Puerini. Honestly, we were disappointed there. We found the food bland and unimpressive. I felt kind of bad, because I had to ask the waitress for a salt shaker, as there wasn't one on the table, and it... more

Had an excellent meal over 4th weekend. Nice outside table on second level with very attentive service. One of the specials that night was stuffed swordfish with pesto pasta, and it was just wonderful. Can't wait till next time. more

Greeted by friendly wait staff and hostess, the restaurant had a nice atmosphere with soft lighting and a patio protected from the elements. The wine list was very good. The food was ok. I had the shrimp pasta. You could tell that the pasta was freshly made and the shrimp tasted fresh, however, the olive oil sauce could have been... more
