"The clam chowder is one of the best I had. Service is great. The bacalao was ok. I think that dish would be better with real salted cod and not fresh cod. My wife's ravioli was a little tough , so she left half of it. House wine was good. I will still give it a 5 stars for the good service and the chowder"

"This is probably one of my favorite restaurants in Newport. The staff is absolutely amazing and the food is always consistently good. The Thai shrimp nachos, fish and chips and malt burger are delicious! The owner is so nice and always buys us a drink which is a rarity these days and just a nice sentiment of appreciation for being regular customers. Highly recommend!!!"

"At Malt, one encounters not merely a steak accompanied by frites, but rather a transcendent manifestation of bovine succulence colliding with tuberous crispness in a dialectical interplay of textures and essences. The steak, simultaneously robust in its charred exterior and yielding in its sanguine interior, performs a paradoxical symphony of carnivorous indulgence, wherein each morsel compels the diner to reflect upon the very philosophy of cookery itself. The frites, those slender golden batons of fried tuber, shimmer with an almost Platonic ideal of crispness, their interiors whispering of agrarian origins while their exteriors crackle in the mouth like edible architecture. When united with the accompanying sauce—an unctuous elixir of savory profundity—the ensemble transcends the mere act of dining and approaches the realm of experiential metaphysics. To call this simply “steak frites” would be an injustice; at Malt, it is a culinary sonnet disguised as sustenance, a dish that insists upon being contemplated as much as consumed."

"Food was delicious and our server was fabulous. We felt like we made a new friend. Seriously though, delicious food and not just saying that after a day of being on an airplane. And shout out to whomever put the music play list together. 5 stars."

"Its a decent little restaurant in downtown Newport. Its has a greaty comfy cozy feel to it. The apperizers were delicous. As an entree I got the steak frites. They could have been a bit more seasoned. The server also seemed annoyed she had to serve me. Other than that it was a good place"
