I did have to send the asparagus back... it wasn't cooked at all and didn't come back anymore cooked than it was previously but I didn't mind much.. everything else in the plate was great! I'm also not sure if you have to ask for bread and oil or if it's supposed to be provided intially... both times I've been recently I had to ask for it. This time it was fresh outta the oven.. oof! Looking forward to what I try next time.

My wife, our toddler, and I visited Newport Grill for dinner, but we were forced to leave due to the extremely unprofessional behavior of our waiter. When we advised the waiter that the appetizer we received was not what we had ordered, his response was highly unprofessional. He went too far when he involved my young daughter in the situation, to the point where I felt it was best forme and my family to leave the restaurant immediately. I do want to mention that the on-duty manager was very apologetic and handled the situation with the utmost professionalism. We went ahead and paid for the food we had received before leaving. However, the waiter's conduct was entirely unacceptable, especially regarding how he interacted with our child. I hope this matter will be addressed appropriately with the staff member involved.

The design of the restaurant is gorgeous. It is open concept with big beautiful windows and a ton of natural light, but it still feels so elevated but not too elevated that you can't wear jeans but elevated enough that you could wear heels. I saw people dressed casual in there, and I saw people dressed in suits. I highly recommend sitting at the chef's table, which is the counter that belly's right up to the chefs that are cooking right out in the open. It is the coolest experience to watch their every move and listen to them communicate with each other. You do not feel any heat off of the grill or the stove because of the way it's set up. You just get to watch them make their magic. I expected this place to be overly priced because it is so nice but honestly, the prices are great. For the experience and for the food, I was more than happy with the pricing. The hospitality there is top-notch from the second you walk in and every minute after that, you feel like you are paid attention to and that you matter. You feel like all of the staff are grateful for you but not in an overbearing way just in a very appreciative way. This restaurant truly understands that the customers are what keep them in business. We had a 5 PM reservation on a Saturday night. Like I said, we ate at the chefs table. As soon as we sat down, the owner came up and greeted us and shook our hands, introduced himself and introduced us to all of the chefs that were cooking. I noticed he did that with everybody at the chefs table, so it was such a cool experience. Then he brought us out a little sample to try that isn't on the menu and that was super nice. He checked on us a couple of times after that. In between him checking on us, we had the nicest waiter checking on us. He was more than a waiter. He was like a concierge of the restaurant. He knew about every dish and every drink and could give us very specific details about it and help us decide what we would like. Now to the food, wow I mean wow. Check out my pictures for what we ordered. We cannot wait to go back.

Then we get to all the things that really matter if you are a restaurant and NOT a catering venue. Training-why is your server not trained well on how to interact when there is a speaker/leader who is talking when she decides to interrupt? Why is the food so focused on being smashed into a shape that fits inside the rim of the plate? It almost seemed as if they stacked all our plates full of food on top of each other (I don't think they did that?), without covers, because my meal came compacted, shaped and stuffed into the plate...very unappetizing. The food wasn't terrible, but it was cold and put on the plate based upon a list and and photos...not by anyone who ever considered that an actual SOUL was going to have to PUT IT IN THEIR MOUTH.... So 5 stars for room 3 stars for service (she was really nice) 2 stars for food Averages out to 3! If you aren't going for a meeting or party-it might be different!

There are easily 30 beers on tap/chilling in the fridge, ranging from local to national brands, with a great supporting wine and cocktail menu. The beer is cold and hits just right, plus it sets you up to order off that strong menu. From handheld to pizza, Bricktown has lots to choose from. I opted for the Rodeo Burger, a big burger topped with an onion ring, sliced jalapeños, bacon & BBQ sauce. Wowza! Fabulous burg, can't recommend enough. I washed it back with a Left Hand Nitro milk stout, which is maybe a touch heavy, but it's fall and it worked right. Alex, our server, was super quick and attentive; food came fresh and ready, clearly not off a warmer, and the turnaround time was superb! The place has some high ceilings, and with plenty of screens to pay attention to, it might get loud during a sportsball session. But there's plenty of seating, both in the dining area and at the bar, and the decor fits not only the theme but the space. Easy to park, seating is quick, they're open until at least 9:00 daily, and the seasonal specials are definitely worth a look when you stop in.

Everything was seasoned right, not heavy and just down right hearty. Coffee is warm and right temp, and the complimentary monkey bread.. come on! They paired so well. Crab Benedict - eggs poach to perfection! Asparagus salted right. Everything covered in that nice unbroken hollandaise sauce. The only comment I have is maybe a slice of lemon for additional acid for the customer. I ordered their Triple D (all four). To grab a taste of what breakfast is all about. Biscuit and gravy, delicious.. homemade fluffy biscuit and that gravy, so savory... this dish can fill up a giant itself. Banana bread - so soft and moist. Not too sweat, and remind me of a sticky toffee pudding. Just right out great. Crispy cornhash - great cook in the cornhash, good season, great easy egg to combine them together.. mix mix mix, bite bite bite, all gone.. Lastly timi benedict - again, perfect eggs... great cook on the maple bacon, had enough pepper and sweat to bring a unique spin to a classic. Even though they were busy, they gave everybody the warm and fuzzy.. just comforting! Food came out fast and warm! If youre in town, definitely put this place as a spot. Highly recommend

I had scrambled eggs and they were light and fluffy and tender. The steak was cooked exactly how I had requested and was tender and flavorful. The hashbrowns were perfect. There's one of their small advantage. They open early. So if you are an early riser and want a great breakfast, come here.

The Food is OK, will never win gourmet' awards, wouldn't even impress grandma, but it's passable as there aren't many ways you can screw up a breakfast. The Omelets for some reason are dry, It think it's because they cook everything all together instead of the more traditional rolled omelet where the filling is inside the egg lining.

We asked our server if at least the 2 kids orders were almost done and were told she had been told not to submit orders. We were sitting at our table for an hour after our order went placed and it was not allowed to be placed to the kitchen. We ask to just pay for the drinks we had so we could take our kids somewhere we actually feed them. The manager came out and said they would put our order in now and it would take 10-15 minutes for the food to be done. 40 minutes later we still had not gotten our food. Manager fled the establishment. And since we were sitting in front of the kitchen we heard they were prioritizing online orders over those of patrons actually in the restaurant to eat. Once the food started coming out we had to ask multiple times for food that was missed to the point we took two full orders to go as we had been there for over 2 hours by the time the last of the food had been brought out. Instead of a manager coming and talking to us, apologizing or even acknowledging the very poor experience we were given a ticket at full cost of $112 and hustled out the door. Not sure what the issue was, but the failure was on the entire staff management, cooks, servers all failed miserably.

Time to order and food to table was minimal, food is delicious and the restaurant uses local suppliers where they can, so it supports local growers. The inside has a beautiful art deco vibe going and the lighting is dimmed so it sets the mood. The music isn't loud, so you have the subtle sounds of other people talking, and the hustle and bustle of the kitchen staff working. Overall one of my most enjoyable experiences for a first time here in Wichita. This is definitely a place I will be recommending to everyone, and be coming back to from now on.
