Went here for our 48th anniversary meal. They comped us with a champagne toast. The food and service were outstanding. Nice to experience such a historic house.

We choose this restaurant because of the history. We got a nice table near the fireplace but they weren't using it because of the warm weather this Thanksgiving. We both ordered the same thing, the French Onion soup was hot and cheesy with lots of...onion. They did a non traditional take on Thanksgiving dinner by making it into a Wellington, great idea our only issue was we forgot to ask for no gravy ( we don't like gravy) and they pooled the entire dish in gravy. But we still enjoyed our meal. The warm Apple crisp was excellent. Nice wine list and we liked to old colonial tavern feel.More

We were very impressed. Our server Jim did a great job and our meals were excellent. We each had the scallops entree, which was delicious, accompanied by a nice bottle of wine. It was a great meal in a historical restaurant with a nice ambiance.

The food was excellent. The atmosphere had the feeling of a colonial tavern. The service was friendly and knowledgeable.

We went there for our anniversary and it was the perfect night. Everyone recommends the beef wellington, and I would too. It was the best Wellington I've ever had. Staff was excellent and the history behind the restaurant was certainly interesting. A must do in...Newport.More

We went with a toddler for the early dinner. Staff and waiter were friendly, accomodating, attentive, and profesional. We order French onion soup, the lobster bisque, appetizer, and we shared Pan-Roasted Statler Chicken Breast. Serving and food were outstanding. We were on the second floor...in separate room. I would highly rated this place.More

We went here for a birthday celebration and they put us at Mrs. Jackie O’s favorite table (so awesome). The lobster bisque, Nantucket clam chowder, French onion soup, and beef Wellington were all delicious. Our waitress was very nice and personable, we loved her. Our...last course, the tavern candy bar was to die for! So good! The atmosphere was very old fashioned which we loved! And we may or may not have had a few experiences while visiting the oldest tavern in the U.S. I would definitely come back here.More

The history and menu drew us in but the experience was even better. Our table was in the upper room of the original building and almost expected to see George Washington come in for dinner. Superb and tasty food. I loved both my "clear broth...chowder" and the duck confit. Service was impeccable and perfectly timed. A wonderful experience in historic Newport that is highly recommended. Take some time to look at the artifacts displayed. On the Monday evening of Columbus Day weekend, we did get space in small parking lot behind restaurant...an added perk in that area.More

Good pub with good selection of craft beers!! Had a good evening out here with friends and enjoyed the atmosphere and new decs

Wife and I were really looking forward to eating dinner here, but it kinda disappointed. i loved the history of the place and wanted to I had the oysters and beef wellington and my wife had onion soup and fries. We both had a cocktail...and shared a desert. My oysters were tasty but small. Wellington was not that good even though might of been a good rendition of the dish. Wife's onion soup was great as were the truffle fries. Both our cocktails were not good and over priced so we didn't get another. For desert we got the bread pudding because my wife loves it. It was burnt on the bottom and we didn't eat it and told our waitress about our thoughts. We were charged for the pudding anyway. Not the class experience we were looking forward to.More

Wonderful food, service and atmosphere. The Rhode Island Clam Chowder(clear broth not cream) and Tomato Buratta Appetizers, the Lobster Ravioli, Scallops and Duck Confit Entrees, the Seasonal Bread Pudding and Tavern Candy Bar Desserts were absolutely delicious. Definitely worth changing out of our jeans and...sneakers for the evening. I highly recommend for a special night out.More

Delicious meal, great ambiance, and excellent service in this historic tavern. My husband and I had clam chowder, French onion soup, scallops, and lobster ravioli. It was a real treat to dine here.
