There's seats at the bar and a few high top tables with booth seating across from it. No reservations, walk ins only. I suggest keeping it to groups of 2-3. Anything larger is a tight fit. We came in after 10pm on a Saturday and were lucky to snag the only open table left. The craft cocktails are reasonably priced for the area at $15. There's a large variety and they even have mocktails. You can tell that the owners put creativity and thought into the drinks. They also have a food menu (snacks and small appetizers only) but we didn't get to try anything because it's only available until 10pm. Service was great. Bartenders are friendly and put a lot of love and effort into making your drinks. We ordered a margarita and a dark n' stormy (dark rum, lime, ginger beer). Both were presented beautifully and we enjoyed them! If you're in the Newport area and want to enjoy unique cocktails in a more intimate environment, definitely check this spot out.

Very fresh and honestly, very affordable for the aesthetic, quality, and taste. Plus the service is great. I've had their pastas, entrees, apps, pizza, and drinks and there is nothing you can go wrong with. My personal favorites is their kale salad, chianti marsala braised beef and mushroom tagliatelle. Again, the quality is great and everything is seasoned/ flavored well. Plus their pastas are homemade! They also give free bread, who doesn't love that? I cannot recommend this place enough. Perfect for a date night or night out with friends.

The ambience is very nice in here & I got sat right away. The wine menu was confusing because when…read moreI asked the waitress about the white wines per glass she said only 3 were available. She was nice enough to let me try them and I chose the Trevino which was very good and paired great with my food. The bread was nothing special but solid and the high quality olive oil made up for it. For my main I got the chicken milanese and it was divine. I loved the vinaigrette on top perfectly acidic and vinegary. It cut though the oil and heaviness of the breading which was perfectly salted by the way. The arugula bean salad was sooo good and created such a well balanced meal. The one thing I will say is I believe their fryer does fish and chicken bc my chicken had a slight ocean taste but since I like fish I was not bothered but non fish people beware!

We sat in the Conservatory and I loved being surrounded by lush foliage and clean black and white stripe decor. On to the food--- This is not a drill. Do not skip the raw oysters. The mignonette - excellent! They were the best of the weekend (and we have had quite a bit) Our server Tiffany was attentive and made excellent suggestions. We ordered crab toast as well and it was very very good. Then followed with a Caesar salad and clam chowder to share. I couldn't decide between little neck clams and the rabbit tagliatelle and she brought the clams as a surprise. They were HANDS DOWN the best I've ever had. She really made my night. The pasta was also incredible. My selections were favorites of the table. A dinner companion ordered a steak but it was a little over cooked but the manager Rory went above and beyond taking care of us. I'm not sure what they do to make the most perfect French fries but hands down I've never had one like this. Figure out a way to order them. The Can't Elope cocktail was the best I had in Newport. It was balanced, refreshing and all around perfection. We also loved the Paper Tiger! Finished with a sticky toffee pudding that was a star of the meal. I wish I wasn't so full or I would have finished it I cannot recommend this restaurant enough 5 stars.

Flora is now my new Favorite restaurant in Newport!…read more As a May baby I take my restaurant reservations very seriously. So when we made plans to spend the day in Newport, I had some time to book the perfect restaurant. Also, a few choices came to mind, but then I found Flora. Flora is fairly new to Newport. A Mediterranean hot spot with gorgeous views in the beautiful Gardiner House, which used to be a vacant lot. The good - Parking can be difficult around here since its down a side street off Thames. They do Valet for $25 which I thought was a bit steep. So, we eventually found metered street parking. Upon walking to the restaurant we were greeted by a very friendly attendant. He showed us the way to the restaurant which was up a few flights of staircases. The great - Once inside Flora we were greeted by a very nice Hostess. She brought us to our table which was overlooking the ocean. The ambiance is stunning! Our server came over and we ordered a bottle of water and some drinks. Then, we also ordered one of their popular appetizers called Jamon Con Tomate - delish! Then, we ordered their beet salad which was also good. For entrees, I went with their Black Bass (something new that I have never heard of before). My husband had their Veal Scallopini, also excellent. They brought over 2 different desserts for my birthday, one with a candle of course. In summary - Everything about this restaurant was spectacular. And, I want to note that even though some of the other reviews were not as good, don't let that deter you from dining here. I highly recommend checking out Flora the next time you are here. Plus, they have a gorgeous patio for those hot summer days in Newport. Nothing beats a warm day, and ocean views. Cheers~

The atmosphere has a flair of French elegance, paired with impeccable service. There is an outdoor patio and bar that wasn't yet open for the day when we visited, but on a beautiful night, if you can't join for dinner, we recommend grabbing a drink to enjoy the views. We enjoyed a late breakfast and some coffees and lattes. The portion sizes and presentation for breakfast were wonderful. The chef came out to check on our meals, such service and care is truly a special touch. This is a fine dining restaurant, so it's preferable to dress nicely- for dinner this is a requirement. Reservations are a must, especially during the busy season. Gentlemen- plan a date night here with your ladies, you won't regret it Lentz_explore
