" I visited Clarke Cooke House as part of a special getaway for my girlfriend’s birthday, and it was a night to remember! We were seated overlooking the waterfront, which added a beautiful view to our dinner. The oysters were a highlight, fresh and simply divine. We also enjoyed cocktails that were creative and well-mixed. My only drawback was that our waiter seemed busy with multiple tables, and at times we had to wait a while for our orders to be taken. Nonetheless, it was overall a wonderful experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" A mixed experience at Clarke Cooke House. My first visit was fantastic – the clam chowder was the best I've had, and the seafood linguine was delicious. However, on my second visit, the service was lackluster, and I was disappointed with how my steak was prepared. The ambiance is lively, and I appreciate the history behind the restaurant, but consistency seems to be an issue. I'm still debating if I'll return again soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! Clarke Cooke House has managed to preserve the charm of Newport while providing a high-quality dining experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcomed. The native cod was flavorful and cooked perfectly, paired with a delightful sauce. Don't forget to try the signature dessert in a wine glass – you won't regret it! Overall, a splendid evening and definitely worth the wait. " (*Curated Review*)

" While the ambiance is charming, my dining experience left a bit to be desired. My pasta was underwhelming and did not match the wonderful offerings of the seafood dishes. The waiter was friendly but seemed overwhelmed. I believe the food could be more consistent, as some meals coming from the kitchen looked much better than mine. I may give it another try, but I’ll be cautious next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was excited to try Clarke Cooke House after hearing so much about it, but the reality didn't quite match the hype. The food was good, but there were hits and misses. The oysters were exceptional, but my main course felt a bit off. The staff seemed to rush us out, which dampened the atmosphere. I'd consider returning on a quieter day. " (*Curated Review*)

" Our visit to Clarke Cooke House was definitely an experience to remember. The rich history of the venue adds a special touch. We began with fresh oysters, which were some of the best I've had. Each dish on our table was unique and well-presented. Although the service was a tad slow, we weren't in a rush, so it didn’t bother us much. I'd return, especially for their changing specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I visited Clarke Cooke House after hearing so much about it. The location is ideal, right along the waterfront. The service was decent, though we felt a bit rushed at times. The oysters were fresh and tasty, but my entree was sadly overcooked. However, the atmosphere was lively and inviting. I'm willing to give it another shot, hoping for better kitchen performance next time. " (*Curated Review*)
