Total scam and a danger for health. We were attracted by the location and atmosphere. After being informed that the seafood platter was $29, we ordered it and we received a variety of fried seafood. Clams had been extracted entirely and, without being cleaned, put entirely (including the grit) in a tasteless batter. We had to leave half of them since they had a weird taste. Afterwards, they informed us that the price of the "fresh" seafood platter would have been $29, but the *fried* seafood platter was $49 -something they had not told us before. My partner suffered from a food poisoning by the clams grit and vomited during the entire night. We will never go again.

On one of the few last Indian Summer days we went to Quitos for lunch. We wanted fried clams but none were available. We both chose the baked stuffed sole with lobster sauce and I had both shrimp and lobster in mine as did my friend. We savored every single morsel. It was a hefty $40. And worth every hard earned penny. Neither my friend nor myself had ever experienced such a scrumptious meal. It came with a potato and a veggie. Sole is oh so easy to overcook but this was perfection!!! If you ever want to experience nirvana in the form of food go to Quitos in Bristol RI and pray that this piece of heaven is on the menu. You will remember it always.Parking: In front of the restaurant. May be more spot very close by

Wow! Our server was Kristen C. & she is amazing! The food is off the hook and the ambience is exactly what I expected! My wife & I drove from Boston to have some delish seafood and we were not disappointed! If you're in the area or a short hour drive away, you need to come here :)

For lunch we had the Lobster Bisque, Crab Cakes and Shrimp Tacos!! Everything was perfect and delicious!! In my opinion Quitos has the best Lobster Bisque. No other restaurant comes close to this delicious Bisque!! We'll be back soon!!
We had an excellent meal here. Everything was so delicious and fresh and the service was phenomenal. I had the Mediterranean Linguine with fried calamari, my mom had the Seafood Stuffed Sole special, and my dad had the Seafood Casserole. It was all so good. Can’t wait to go back!

Cute little place right on the water. I ate in the covered outdoor patio so I can't speak of the inside, but I enjoyed sitting outside with the view of the water. Food and service were both top notch. The lobster roll was delicious and had plenty of lobster in it!

Food was tremendous. The plastic lawn chairs paired with the view was pretty nice. There were a lot of hornets.The service was not good. The food took a long time to get to the table. When asked about the hang time, the waiter told us he had no control over it. I know that. You are the face I have contact with. You are the face of the establishment. If I had the ability I would ask the cook in the back myself. Lie and put on a show. I am in the dark.

Always a great experience and meal at Quitos. We were in the covered deck on a warm and pleasant evening on a late October evening. Kristen was our server and is always our favorite.
We have been here several times and our meals have been excellent. This is now one of our favorite restaurants. The view is great no matter what time of year. We will definitely be back.
I grew in Bristol; our family always has gone there. Now that I live in Phoenix, it is my first stop! Really! 6 with the RI chowder!! YUM Or the clear with half fried w/bellies, or we'll you get the idea!! Last night had two buckets of steamers ❣️

The lobster bisque was amazing! The service was really really slow and it wasn't even that busy! The mashed potatoes were loaded with red pepper flakes and were so spicy they weren't edible! Will not be back!
I ordered the pan seared salmon , it was so overcooked I could not swallow it . My cat did enjoy it at home . Completely disappointed in Quitos and will never return and would not recommend.

A very nice location for an outdoor lunch, they have a very beautiful view on the water. The service was friendly but slow and the food was good. The steamed lobster was delicious, the lobster bisque wasn’t as good. Overall a good place for an ok meal and nice view.
We love going to Quitos when in Rhode Island. Can't wait till the spring to head there again. The food and atmosphere are great.
