Wonderful!! Other than not sitting upstairs, where I had requested weeks in advance, it was a very positive & delicious experience… Our waiter, Peter was excellent, accommodating & knowledgeable without being overbearing…The food was outstanding though a bit overpriced…

This year we had Scott as our waiter and like every other wait staff in prior years, Scott was a “true” professional. Everyone at 22 B is all about the client, us the customers, addressing every need and thats what keeps us coming back!

Both the calamari appetizer and the fried oyster special were fresh, perfectly prepared and presented to Bon Appetite standards. Service was timely and included a smile and good humor despite Holidays season stressors. Exceeded expectations on all counts. Well done!

We have been coming to this establishment since they opened, which I believe is 20 years. The food is delicious! The service is excellent! The ambience is just consistently classy and beautiful, especially around holiday time. Steaks are top notch. They have an extensive wine list as well. Highly recommended. Best restaurant in Newport by far!

Restaurant was good. Got there a bit early for our reservation so sat at the bar, the cocktail I had was good and bar service was good. The service once we were seated was a bit slow and rarely saw our waiter and weren’t given bread until after we ordered our meal. The ambiance of the res was nice, especially as it’s the holiday season. But otherwise it’s a bit dark. We ordered the lobster bisque and it was definitely one of the more mediocre ones I have had in New England. It came out barely warm and was heavily lacking in salt and pepper. Would not recommend it to anyone especially as it’s New England - major letdown! We also got the Australian Ribeye, with the trio medley side, and it was melt in your mouth good! Really made up for the lobster bisque. Overall a decent restaurant in downtown Newport, glad to have checked it off the list.
