If you happen to be vacationing on Block Island during the summer months, you really need to give Winfield's a try. Great selection of food items skillfully prepared. Enjoy a crafted cocktail while you wait for your meal. The wine list is surprisingly good. Certainly not award winning but solid. Even though the house was busy we were taken care of with great care. Btw, we were a party of 14. Everyone left happy. Cheers. read more

Winfield's has done a great job with their patio! Live music! Perfect spot for a drink! The service was excellent from start to finish!! The food on the other hand was....well underwhelming. First, the variety on the menu wasn't great. Luckily it at least had one of everything. It was like dishes tried too hard. The flavor combos were weird. I did love the mashed potatoes! But overall all five of us left thinking....nah, we probably wouldn't come back. read more

Best restaurant on the island, hands down. Delicious cocktails, apps, entrees and desserts. Nothing on the island compares.

A long time standout on Block Island. A must go to, we go twice for every four nights we are there. The service is always excellent. The cocktails, wine, and food are always excellent. The Lobster Mac is a must. The tuna was exceptional this year. read more

My partner and I went to Winfield's for the first time to celebrate our anniversary, and we couldn't have been happier with the decision. Given the modern, upscale exterior, I was pleasantly surprised by the cozy interior, featuring dark wood ceilings and floors, as well as a great little bar. The food was excellent; I highly recommend the filet and the Winfield's salad. We will definitely be back for another nice night out on Block. read more

The house salad is very good. The swordfish is a solid choice. The jerk chicken is just ok- a little under seasoned/sauced in my opinion.

I don't like to give negative review for restaurants but I'm sorry it's just a very bad experience. My rating solely based on the taste of food, regardless the restaurant's environment is ok , little loud, nice waitress... So let's talk about food. The appetizers scallops was soft & juicy, you should try. Lobster mac and cheese is decent. I had cod... The fish itself was fresh.. however.. what's wrong with the chef????? Whoever cook this dish totally screw up and taste like he/she had put 1 cup of salt making the sauce!!! If you have high blood pressure PLEASE don't order it! I feel sorry for my father in law he has high blood pressure and he ordered it too since the cod soaked in the sauce, it's EXTREMELY Salty!!! My tongue cannot taste everything else. I just end up drinking ice water and asking for extra bread to fill my stomach for the night since we arrived the island late and it's like 9ish pm. If you love the cod fish ..... And still want to come to eat ... I'd suggest you tell them forget about the sauce. Other dishes i will give 3 stars. **** Note: i told the manager who had long hair he ignored my feedbacks, lucky my waitress took my feedbacks seriously , the salt really making me sick and shaking .. i drank 4 glases water to flush it. She then took off the cod fish from the bill. Sorry won't come back again. read more

Good food, nice spot on island. Consistent, but a bit underwhelming. One has to consider value in assessing $31 to $58 entrees and for the money the food while good comes, up a bit short, imho. read more

We've had some very beautiful meals here-but the last couple of times-the meal was underwhelming. I ordered a "crab-crusted" cod. Although the piece of fish was fresh, cooked well, and tender-the "crust" was a greasy dense breading-that had no crab at all in it. It was also over-broiled and burnt on top. If I were the chef; I would have tossed it and re-fired it. The potatoes and vegetables that accompanied the dish-were an afterthought-not given any love or attention. My partner ordered the filet with au gratin potatoes. He was very happy with his dish. Our appetizers were decent. I had scallops, (white bean purée was ok) Bf had Caesar salad, which he liked. This place was so great first time we ate here, we've come here to eat every time we visit the island. After this last experience; I'm doubtful we'll be back. Not sure what happened, but the quality seems to have declined. read more

Delicious as always! Never disappoints, especially the lobster macaroni and cheese! Additionally, Winfields serves great cocktails and wine, the ambiance is warm and inviting, and the service is excellent. The perfect spot for a really nice meal on Block Island! read more

The service and the food at Winfield's is always top notch. Get the cod if it's on the menu.

One of the best meals we've had on BI!!! The fish is fresh and cooked to perfection. Such a wide variety of dishes and flavors. Make a reservation or be prepared to wait with a cocktail on their expansive front deck. read more

Delicious meal with excellent service and a nice interior dining room. Server was wonderful checking for dairy allergy for the dinner party. Split entree was divided and served from kitchen. Nice touch. Drink and wine menu was nice and there are many good choices for starters. We loved the tuna tartare and the BI mushroom toast bites. A lovely meal. Would go again. read more

The restaurant seemed rather dark - difficult to see the food. I ordered the half chicken and mashed potato dinner. I was enthusiastic when it was delivered - it looked very good. HOWEVER, I sliced into the chicken and - wait for it - BLOOD ran out of the meat into the potatoes. I was sickened by that. I don't even eat less than well done steaks. I waved down the waitress, who asked me: you would rather have it more well done? I was astonished and told her it isn't like a steak - it's chicken. You have to cook it completely to avoid illness! So she returned to the kitchen with it, returning a few minutes later with the same platter of food and here is what she said: the chef said that this is cooked, but sometimes near the bone it can appear red. And she was suggesting I eat it. I was almost speechless, but managed to say - I'm not eating that. I wanted to say CHEF should eat this meal! So, away I went after paying only for my salad and drink. I was nauseated after that event and had to find suitable food elsewhere. Bottom line, raw food, no apology - not even a visit from the manager on staff. I will not be recommending this restaurant or returning. Shame on them - read more

The food was amazing, staff was very pleasant, but it was SO HOT. I was in a short, spaghetti strap dress, and I normally hate when AC is on high because I get cold easily, but would have welcomed being blasted with AC here. We are both fit people who don't overheat easily. There's no way we are the only ones who were hot. And there was a mini split about 6 feet away from us, yet not an ounce of cold air was coming out of it, so confused. We might try again but only for the roasted garlic that comes with the bread (even though they only give one roll per person haha). read more

This restaurant seriously exceeded our expectations, great service, delicious food, and good atmosphere. Good for small parties or groups. Drinks: the cocktails are delicious, they also have beer and wine. For coffee at the end of dinner we ordered a cappuccino which was very good. Appetizers: we ordered the Winfield's salad which was delicious. My husband and i split a large salad and it was perfect. You can order a small or large. I ordered the lobster Mac and cheese from the appetizer section for dinner but you can totally get it as a appetizer or dinner. The portion is large and hearty, very good and copious amounts of larger lobster meat. Dinner: my husband ordered the pan seared salmon and the flavors and portion size was amazing. I was really impressed and blown away. Definitely recommend. TIP**** save your receipt and you can use it after to go over to Kitten's and this receipt excerpts you from paying the cover charge. Great place to stop by for a fun drink to end the night. read more

We have been going to BI for decades, but have never tried Winfield's before; we were very pleasantly surprised. This was late in the season, with an island labor shortage, but they had plenty of help and service was wonderful. We went with two friends, and everyone enjoyed their meals. Food was perfectly prepared and beautifully platted. Over all, one of the best dining experienced we had on this most recent trip. They bill themselves as a steakhouse, but their menu is more diverse than that. Although we did not hang out in the bar, it was a lot of fun, with great atmosphere and full of people, with a band playing. I would come back just for the bar! The only drawback of the place, and reason I never thought to go before, was that the windows are small, and there is no outdoor dining space, so you get none of the outdoor beauty of BI. But the interior was very nice! read more

As we were looking for dinner on our short stay on Block Island, we easily made reservations at Winfield's 24 hours in advance. Walking in our table was ready and waiting. Rebecca our server took care of us and also threw in some local knowledge as she is an islander. She was very attentive cleaning up everything as we were done with it. We started with the seared scallop appetizer, they were melt in your mouth good and then off to a side Caesar salad with an excellent dressing. My main course was the blackened shrimp very nicely cooked. I finished the evening with tres leche cake. It was a great dinner experience and I highly recommend making this a stop along your Block Island culinary adventure. read more

Visited June 12th. Wasn't thrilled walking in with limited menu but they had a short rib special that was awesome, which 3 of the 6 of us got. One of us said it was a bit smokey, but i did not find it such. The Salmon, pork chop and lobster m&c got raves. The bar room is dark but charming. The service very good. The prices a bit elevated but not too bad. Highly recommend. read more

The service, food, ambiance was all top notch! We ordered the scallops as an app. They were so tender and well seasoned. We also had the pork chop and sirloin (special of the week) for dinner. Although the steak came out overcooked, they were gracious enough to leave that plate on the table while they made us a new steak to temp. We finished the night off with a slice of key lime pie that was everything and more! The kind of service we experienced never goes unnoticed. The flavors were amazing but the service was better. read more

Service. Service. Service. It was not busy when we arrived. We ordered, our salads came out quickly. They were really Good. Then the rolls served with roasted garlic . Just OK. The rolls tasted like store bread. Not what you expect at a nice restaurant. Then the waiting. And waiting. And waiting. Our server never let us know what was going on or even noticed that our food did not come out. The table that came in after us got their meals, finished eating. Finally we asked, she said it is on its way. She went in the back, and came out and said she just 'fired' the order. She never put our food order into the kitchen! I asked how long? She said soon. Food came out, my husbands chicken dish was fine. My pasta was cold and the pasta was chewy and doughy. Not impressed. read more

Was very happy with our meal here the other night. There were 7 in our party and we all had compliments for everything we ordered. Some of us had a beef bourguignon special and gave it great reviews. I had seared scallops in a shallots, thyme, fennel, Granny Smith apple, burre blanc sauce, which were fantastic! My wife had the duck confit with potato salad, house pickles, and cider gastrique, and I thought that was also superb. They have a good selection of unusual cocktails, a large wine list, and beers. Service was good and all out dishes came out in a nicely coordinated way, all hot and nicely plated. The ambiance is unchanged from my last visit, and although it's not at all "beachy", it's a nice of change of pace with excellent food. read more

Definitely a block island gem! The scallops are to die for, they literally melt in your mouth. Also tried the salad with tenderloin, so tender I cut it with a butter knife. read more

If I had to rate the quality of service we received from Winfield's, I would place it lower than the experience I expect to have at a 50 year old family pizza place. Or a papa Gino's/McDonald's. Was seated and not approached for almost 20 minutes, forced to stare at the worst artwork I've ever seen in my life. The pictures on the wall appears to resemble bats drowning in the ocean. When we found out this was the chefs artwork we knew our experience had flushed down the toilet. I can give this restaurant one star, and that's because that's the number of glasses of water re received in our 30 minute quest for a waitress before our pride took over and we walked out. Do not waste your time here. You will be disappointed. read more

This place is connected to yellow kitten but you wouldnt know that once you are inside. The decor is homey and cute. Service was very good and its only a short walk from old harbor. Not many nice restaurants on the island (more bar food type) but Winfields definitely outshines them all from where i have ate so far. Food - had salad and tenderloin with pimento cheese for apps. The salad was awesome and the tenderloin app pretty good Dinner - the table had swordfish, grilled shrimp, and grass fed tenderloin. All were excellent. The steak and swordfish was huge! Shrimp was smaller plate but waitress even warned us before getting. Great spot! Def would go back read more

Amazing experience every single time we visit. The food is consistently fantastic, the service is superb. Always a great night out when we come here! Highly recommend! read more

A really beautiful meal. Started with the bread with roasted garlic head and a nice olive oil and Parmesan. We had the grilled artichoke for an appetizer and I had the cod and my boyfriend the chicken. Both were incredibly well done and delicious. I couldn't tell you the last time I had fish this perfectly cooked- just the right balance of flakiness and moisture. Perfect. Waitstaff was wonderful and very attentive. I highly recommend! Best meal I've had in a while read more

We went on the last night of the season for the restaurant, it was a great place to have a meal. A little pricey but you get what you pay for, I would go with any fish or steak option they know what they are doing. We had swordfish and scallops, everything was awesome including the bread with a roasted garlic clove.. read more

OK, but nothing special. We made a reservation for a milestone anniversary well in advance and were seated in the bar area. There were stained, dingy cloth dividers between the three tables in there. Rather gross and unappetizing. It was right where people came in to wait, so was quite noisy. The food is listed as French, but I didn't see anything French on the menu. I got a simple fish dish, my husband had chicken. We paid over $130 for our two meals with a glass of wine. The service was good, so was the food. But for the money, the atmosphere left a lot to be desired. We ate in the dining room several years ago, and were upset to be seated in the bar when we mentioned our special occasion on Open Table. Probably would not return. read more

I had lobster Mac and cheese last night at an expensive and sceney Manhattan steak house and just couldn't stop thinking how much better the Winfield's version was. The lobster really shines in the dish and is not overwhelmed by an overly creamy sauce. It was a standout dish and I think I rudely ate almost all of it (we were supposed to be sharing). My salmon was perfectly cooked and the sides with it were delicious and fresh tasting. The meal started with fresh yummy bread with a roasted garlic dip - incredibly welcome as we sat down totally starving from our trip. The service was excellent and they went out of their way to seat us promptly in an almost entirely full restaurant and bar. read more

Winfield's is now my second favorite restaurant on the Block...only behind Eli's. It's an older, more conservative crowd and the food is awesome. It's not cheap, but it's worth it. Seared scallops appetizer was fantastic. Mushroom ravioli was heavy and had a lot going on but was still good. I had a bit of the catfish as well which was amazing. One of the desserts on the specials list, apricot bread pudding, was quite good. Wine list by the glass is decent and not incredibly pricey. Service was quick but not rushed. All in all, Winfield's has established itself to be a staple of BI finer dining, primarily for their outstanding food and great service. There's no view and no outdoor seating, but you'll still enjoy your meal. read more

Best meal and service I've had in a while. Had a dinner with my friends; muscles, filet, roasted garlic and bread were all delicious. Had fabulous mixed drinks, hibiscus lemon. Would definitely recommend and go back again. read more

Winfield's - Muscles - French Near Me - Block Island, Rhode Island

We had high expectations for this restaurant, as we wanted to come last time we visited the island. We made it this time, but unfortunately we were disappointed. We were seated in the lounge, which was fine (jazz ensemble playing). But the bottle of wine we chose was not available. They had a similar one, priced $20 more. Other restaurants will give you the replacement bottle at or near the cost of the first one, but not Winfield's. That was disappointing. Even worse, though, was that all of our entrees were lukewarm. The wine glasses also had a bit of a residue on them. We will not be back. read more

Every time my wife and I head to Block Island we make a reservation at Winfield's. This place has held the title, in our world, as our favorite restaurant in Block Island for years.

It is very upscale restaurant. And food was good. But watch out your credit card bill! The wait staff increased tip by falsifying charged amount even after our 20% tip! We could find it out as we keep customer receipt all the time. It is not pleasant. read more

Possibly the best dinner restaurant on Block! Starting with the bread and oil/cheese/garlic mixture (amazing) to the scallops (which have such a flavorful sauce and cooked perfectly) to the swordfish - it's all delicious. Service is great too. read more

Absolutely one of the best meals I've eaten. Chef Berke has put his touches on some basic creations and has elevated these dishes beyond comprehension. From the pork chop that melted in your mouth to the half chicken that was just succulent. Do not forget about the swordfish steak cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor and the filet with au gratin potatoes that were second to none. Absolutely a must when visiting Block Island. read more

A very welcoming place, I sat at the bar and had a wonderful meal. The cod was superb it paired beautifully with the Pinot Gris. The bread plate comes with a perfectly roasted garlic head to spread on bread. Winfield's has the best food in Block Island and beyond. read more
