"Walked in around 1pm on a November Saturday, no seats available without reservation expect at the bar so we sat upstairs at that bar. Very tight seating restaurant but very historical inside. Me and my friend both got the espresso martini and it was amazinggg! I got the blue cheese stuffed burger which was also declicious! Overall we had a nice time and cant wait to come back!"

"A must-visit in Newport. The Clarke Cooke House absolutely delivers. The oysters were pristine and briny, served ice-cold with great accompaniments. The crab cake was perfection—crispy outside, packed with crab, zero filler. The pasta was rich, silky, and deeply comforting without being heavy. The burrata was a standout: ultra-creamy and nestled in a warm, savory broth that made every bite feel intentional. Even the herb soup was flawless—simple, cozy, and full of flavor. Add in polished service and a classic, lively atmosphere, and this place reminds you why it’s such a Newport staple. Everything we ordered was excellent. Would happily come back and order it all again."

"A wonderful experience! We went for a drink the night we arrived and just loved the bar filled with locals and friendly staff so made a reservation to return the following night for dinner and requested a table near the fireplace. So quaint and cozy! We arrived and had a delicious meal….oysters, sushi, lamb, and lobster! 😋 As we were finishing dinner a server going up the stairs next to us tripped and dropped an espresso martini shattering the glass and spilling on us. Once we realized we weren’t cut by the glass and just some spots on our clothes we couldn’t believe how concerned the entire staff was. Olivia our server, the management team, and Reggie were all great! Accidents happen, nobody was hurt and they were extremely apologetic. Reggie even found us at the next bar to buy us a drink. That is service and what being in the industry is about! Will also go back when in town! Good food and great people!"

"While we were walking around the harbor in Newport, we wanted to grab a drink. When we walked by, it looked like a nice and fun place. We asked if we could sit at the bar and we were able to find two seats. There were locals and visitors alike, and we could tell we found a gem. Kevin the bartender was friendly, attentive, and made great drinks! When he left his shift, Shawn took over and made sure to keep our water glasses full. We’re so glad we stopped by that afternoon!"

"Enjoyed a burger with my cousin who came from Dallas to visit. Atmosphere was good and there was a pianist playing (?) above us. It was a bit loud in there between the patrons and music but it was a Sunday and it was full of people enjoying brunch. Slightly snobby attitude from the hostess when greeted and seated but our waitress was good for the most part. I would have preferred a slightly shorter amount of time in between check ins and when it was time to ask for the check we were waiting for her return for a bit too long. Burger was cooked perfectly to order, medium well, and the fries has the exact crunch on the edges and tenderness on the inside. No soggy fries here. It came with a pickle on the side. There is a slight walk from the parking area but considering this is Newport, you have to find parking and it's all paid parking from what I could see."
