    I recently was one of the "special guests" at the private dinner and three nights of "meet and greet" activity for the JAWS 50th anniversary celebration. Pulling off a full venue event for hundreds of people is a very difficult task- even for a smaller event. The door security was excellent and the management was present and visible both as floor and business managers. They were polite and cordial, aware of issues and directing the staff as needed without being overbearing. The staff was comfort and service oriented while being gracious and thoughtful- with a smile. There were enough for full and effective coverage. The private dinner the night before the event was a chafing dish affair with a wide array of choices. I'm a vegetarian and there were several choices for me. I asked meat eaters how there's were and they raved over the quality and flavors. I loved the pasta romaine salad with shaved parmesan and the mash potatoes were probably a variation of Jacque Pepin's- they were PERFECT! The pasta with mozzarella and pesto were delicious. I went back for seconds! The whole restaurant was meticulously clean and the rest rooms were kept clean and stocked each night during the event. Obviously not an accident as this is hard to keep stable. There was no detail not executed. The "lite" fair served by staff on the move, to seated and walking guests for the three nights of the event was varied had vegetarian selections and the staff was receptive to requests and covered everyone so no one was left unattended. I've never had deep fried macaroni and cheese before but it was great. So was the deep fried risotto and the dipping sauces! The staff were were "hospitality hawks" on the hunt every minute, and worked hard at making everyone feel welcome and important. At the end of the event I met the head Chef- I believe his name was Christianos- he wanted me to autograph his shirt which I was pleased to do. As the Captain of the kitchen it was an honor to meet the man who cooked such excellent food and made sure it was abundant, looked appetizing and was hot. This took an enormous amount of logistical effort and "people leadership" to pull off. Again it wasn't an accident Christianos had worked his heart out for four days and NOTHING not even one appetizer was wrong or off even a little. I gave him a collectible and a big hug. At the end of the event I was very well pleased to have witnessed the management and staff cooperating and pulling the event off without a hitch. You hit on every cylinder and it was perfect. Thank you! And I'm sure every guest there thanks you too! AMITY MEANS FRIENDSHIP!

    Clam chowder

    Came here with my friend, the ambiance was nice and made it feel like we were in a pub. It was very quite as we went mid to late afternoon but, based on the space and bar area they had we assumed it would be a good place to get a drink later at night for that area. The service was great, the waiter was nice and our food came out quickly. We only got the Clam Chowder which was fantastic as it was filled with flavor and surprised us with bacon bites. Highly recommend and would definitely go back to get other dishes!

    This is a cozy place for lunch during a rain storm. It actually has quite a bit of seating and a pub like atmosphere. The service was friendly but a little weird. Maybe the servers were feeling logy like we were. The steamed clams (not steamers, if that is what you were expecting) weee delicious. The broth was amazing, and they were happy to provide extra bread for the sauce. My burger was just okay. Asked for medium rare, and it was definitely well. Felt/looked like a frozen preformed part, so not much could be done about that. It was fine for what it was. The clam chowder was very good. And the chowder fries were definitely a hit. French fries covered with chowder, grated cheese and bacon. Then broiled! Definitely rich. And we were glad with the portion size. It wasn't overwhelming. Decent beers and cocktails. Not a "must try" but definitely not a place to avoid.

    We stopped in on the later side for a quick bite to eat after some misadventures with lunch. We were taking the last ferry back to the mainland later that evening and had planned to have our main meal just prior to embarking on that journey. This was just to tide us over until then. I would like to start off by saying the service was very good. We entered at an awkward change of shift time and I could tell they went out of their way to make sure we were tended to. I ordered the Wharf Arnold Palmer and GF a bloody mary. The AP was more watery than I was expecting but got the job done. When asked about the bloody mary, GF says, "I've had better. There was a little too much tabasco flavoring". There were certainly a number of vegetarian items on the menu that caught my eye like the fried pickle chips, fried mozzarella, and a few of their salads but ultimately I had to control myself to save some room for later. GF ordered the chowder fries and I went with the oven baked pretzel sticks. The pretzel sticks were warm and soft. The honey mustard supplied on the side was a nice accompaniment but I would have preferred some variety with the addition of a pub cheese. Ultimately this was a good selection and I would recommend. The chowder fries were incredibly rich. GF enjoyed the shit out of them for the first half and then I saw pain in those eyes. I was told that there were no clams in there so I took it upon myself to sample some of it. They were creamy and delectable. I wouldn't recommend if you have gallstones but they're a good app to share in a large group. Very solid pub food.

    The menu has something for everyone, even the Kids! That's what led us to try the Wharf. They are located near the Edgartown ferry downtown area. Easy to walk to but also there's parking in a lot nearby and street parking- just pay attention for loading zones marked by orange boxes and bold orange lettering. There's a Wharf spirits and a Wharf pub and restaurant. If you end up at Spirits side walk around the block and you will find the restaurant side. The pub part is separated from the restaurant area. We arrived with about 15 minutes to closing. We were immediately seated, greeted by our friendly server and provided the menu and given the heads up of the kitchen closing. Luckily, we already checked out the menu and could order right away. We decided on the wings (Honey Sriracha)and Chowder loaded fries for appetizers and the Flank steak and Seafood Fra Diavolo for main dishes and requested all food could be brought out at once. Being end of the night and we were ready to eat and was ready for anything The food came and we were blown away by the flavor and deliciousness. The Chowder fries were piping hot, flavorful, and the cheese pull on it....I wish I had a little video but the hungry man needed to eat. The Flank salad- I am an onion fan and these caramelized onions were perfectly cooked. The Marinade on the steak- I want to say a hint of worcestershire sauce but not sure but it was amazing. The Bleu cheese and pecans coupled with the sweetness from the onions- incredible! It was so good, I wasn't worrying about the wings. The steak temperature was perfect for the salad. Not too hot to wilt the lettuce. The balsamic dressing was just the right amount. I was full off of maybe half but was able to pack it up to eat later. The Seafood Fra Diavolo was also a hit. It smelled delicious and the hungry man said the bread was so good and buttered he couldn't help but eat the entire generous piece. Finally packing up the food I tried a sliver of a wing and the sauce was good. Perfect blend of the sweet and spicy. Leftover wings for lunch was delicious! So was the Bleu cheese. I will be back before I leave the island. The Calamari and the beer cheese and bacon Pretzel sticks are calling me

    Very pub like feeling,loud and lively spot, great pub food pastrami and Cole slaw sandwich with seasoned fries was excellent and the honey sriracha sauce was even better. Service was great very attentive server also friendly staff who recommended several entrée items. Nice place to hangout at on a Saturday night.

    We are here

    The Wharf is consistent and this is important for a year round restaurant on the island. The menu has a few surprises but otherwise it is pretty standard with the usual pub food choices. Sandwiches with a side of fries are large enough to share along with a shared appetizer. My hub and I had the calamari along with a deli chicken club on sourdough bread. The calamari was OK cooked perfectly however it didn't have a lot of flavor. The deli chicken club was packed with chicken bacon lettuce and tomato. The fries were crispy and flavorful quite delicious. Our server was very attentive and had a nice personality. The tables were Distantly spaced for the Covid separation and there weren't that many people on an off-season Monday afternoon.

    Don't order the pulled pork. It is terrible. Sweet potato fries were like soup.

    I ordered the pulled pork and it came with a big glob of cheese. The seasoning on the pork was nothing close to what a bbq pulled pork should have. The sweet potato fries were soggy and I could not eat them. A total waste of $22.

    Once we heard of the "Tuesday Special", which is "TWO Lobster" night, we decided to swing by for dinner. The 3 of us split that deal and it was plenty! Tasty and delicious. A little pricier ($69) than our expectations, but still decent.

    We just had another fabulous dinner at Brick Alley Pub & Restaurant--our second time dining here…read moresince last fall, and it was just as wonderful as we remembered. We arrived a little early for our 4:00 p.m. reservation, and the place was already packed. While we waited by the bar, a very nice waitress took our drink order--a lemon drop martini, beautifully crafted, well-balanced, and pleasantly strong. We were seated shortly after and, of course, ordered another. (Both times, I took several sips before remembering to take a photo!) Our waitress, Mikela, was truly lovely--sincere, sweet, and very courteous. She was attentive throughout the meal without ever being intrusive, which made the experience feel relaxed and effortless. At the end, I told her I wished I could give her 6 stars, but Yelp only allows 5. For dinner, we both ordered the seared rare ahi tuna steak. I had mine with garlic bread, while my husband chose mashed potatoes. I also added the $9.95 salad buffet, which is such a great deal--you definitely won't leave hungry. I especially love their buffet-style salad bar, which offers nearly every option one could want. Both of our ahi tuna steaks were fantastic--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. Once again, I dug into my tuna before remembering to take a photo! We finished the meal with a cheesecake to share--another delicious ending to a wonderful dinner. We're already planning our next visit--there are still so many dishes and drinks we'd love to try.

    I loved everything about this restaurant except one thing, which I'll explain, and which caused 5…read morestars to become 4 stars (I wish I could just knock off a half star but that's not how it works, I guess): My next door neighbor Judi has a hobby of catching the Newport ferry from Providence, sometimes spending a few hours and coming back, or just staying on the boat and heading back, just so she can lean back in a seat and soak up the sun. Lately she'd been telling me about a chocolate martini from The Brick Alley Pub & Restaurant, and being the martini and chocolate fan that I am, I simply had to experience it. So I finally got a day when I could join her on a trip, and so we went there on Labor Day. Once there, we walked right in at 11:30 am, and were seated immediately. The interior is fun and interesting -- antique this and that, including a huge iron door that looks like it went to a furnace, and had embossed lettering, I believe it was Newport Highschool. Perhaps the restaurant location is where the HS coal room was originally??? Anyway, one the way to the table, the hostess said something about the soup and salad bar being over there to my right, and so I went to check it out, and once I took a gander inside the two soup containers, I grabbed a bowl of Portuguese Kale Soup and brought it to the table. Judi said "That's all you're gonna get?" And I said "Of course not, I'll grab some salad and maybe get a sandwich or something." "Oh" she said, and then got up to check out the soup and salad bar herself. Meanwhile as I'm slurping the delicious, heart y soup, loaded with chourico, potatoes, carrots, kale, beans, etc., I'm perusing the menu and I notice that it says that if you purchase a sandwich of $9 or more then you get the soup and salad bar for $10, and then the soup and salad bar alone was $18. Okay, so perhaps I just wasn't thinking about the world in which I now live that basically has you paying for the bread basket you might get served. But again, the hostess just basically slurred out something about the soup and salad bar and my brain heard that it was complimentary. I honestly have to wonder if that's part of the trick(?) to get you to go for it, and not realize that it's considered a meal in itself, and then you order a sandwich or whatever, and now you're paying twice the amount you thought you'd be paying, but hey, it's Newport and people are spending $40 on a stupid baseball cap. And so, you know, if you end up having to pay a bit too much at a restaurant, you don't make a scene, you just say "Yeah, I meant to do that". Okay, I'm trying not to be sardonic here, trying not to sound like one of those "everybody's out to get me" kind of folks, so I'll just shut up at this point, on this particular point. I just hope that the owners and/or managers will inform the hostess to be a bit more clear on what the soup and salad bar actually means. That'd be nice. So there was no way I was buying a sandwich to go along with the soup and salad bar -- I simply cannot eat as much as I did when I was in my 20's and couldn't gain a pound if I ate all day long. I was able to (slightly) save face once Judi went for the soup and salad bar herself and was satisfied with the freshness and deliciousness thereof. But the piece de resistance, the very reason we both came to this establishment in the first place ... the chocolate martini! So this martini looks nothing like you'd expect as clear as water. I believe it's got a vodka base, and then some creme de cocoa, and is showered in grated chocolate flakes. It was absolutely splendid! Nice and boozy without being overpowering, and the flavor was amazing. And then for some strange reason, Judi is looking at the dessert menu. She reads of a few of them, asking me if I'd like something like that. I keep saying "I'm pretty full Jude", but she was persistent. She especially was taken with the Ghirardelli Fudge Brownie with 4 Scoops of Vanilla Ice Cream. She said "What if we can get them to split it in half on two separate plates?" I said "Ohhhhkaayyyyy..." And our waitress said "Absolutely!" She came back with two large portions (see attached photo ... just remember, that's a picture of HALF of the dessert serving!). Oh my word! It was large and quite yummy. A nice, crunchy and soft brownie made with Ghirardelli chocolate, with plenty of walnuts therein, two lovely scoops of ice cream, all drizzled with chocolate sauce. A splendid way to cap it all off. So I'd go back again, just with the knowledge that it's EITHER the soup and salad bar OR a sammich, at least for a guy my age and size and appetite. But definitely for that lovely chocolate martini ... and maybe that fudge brownie to make it complete :)
