" Clarke Cooke House is a wonderful dining destination that combines delightful cuisine with a historic backdrop. Our party enjoyed the oysters and various entrées, and everyone left satisfied although I noticed the portion sizes were a bit smaller than I expected for the price. Still, I commend the quality of the ingredients used. A good option if you're in Newport! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high hopes for Clarke Cooke House based on recommendations, but I found the experience to be rather average. Reservations are indeed necessary as it got crowded quickly. The oysters were fresh, but my main dish lacked flavor. It felt rushed, and it was hard to hear my companions due to the noise. While the service was friendly, I'll likely try a different place next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was initially drawn to Clarke Cooke House because of its charming feel and reputation. While the seafood was undoubtedly fresh, the main dish I ordered fell flat in terms of seasoning. The staff was pleasant, but it took a while to get our drinks. Overall, it's a lovely spot, though I would encourage them to work on their culinary consistency. " (*Curated Review*)

" Clarke Cooke House is known for its seafood, and it lived up to that reputation during our recent dinner. I thoroughly enjoyed the lobster salad, fresh and flavorsome with a twist. The atmosphere was delightful, especially with twinkling lights. Although the wait for our food was longer than expected, the staff was friendly. It's great for special occasions, but try calling ahead for reservations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had dinner at Clarke Cooke House a few nights ago for a reunion with old friends. The ambience was buzzing, but we had a tough time hearing each other. The mussels were delicious, but my main course was quite salty. The cocktails were good, though. Service was friendly; our server checked in regularly without being overbearing. Ultimately a good night, but I wish the food quality was more consistent. " (*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*)
