Food was amazing, service was excellent, atmosphere was adorable... so why 4 stars? After such a nice experience, having to figure out the bill for 6 individual diners really detracted from the experience. We passed the slip around, scribbled notes on scrap paper collected cards and cash and then the server was unable to figure it out. Our bill was over $300. Why, in this day and age, is this establishment unable to figure out how to give us separate checks is beyond me. We are a group of 10 ladies who formed 1 year ago and this is the first time we were told we could not get separate checks. It took 45 min for the manager to figure out our bill so we could pay. Clarke's Cooke House, you need to do better for your diners.Vegetarian options: The 2 vegetarian dishes were ordered were superb!

You go to the Clarke Cooke for the atmosphere, because you can get better tasting food and a lower prices elsewhere in Newport.I been going there 3-5x a year for the past 10 years and it hasn't changed-which is what you want if you enjoy the sailing themed old Newport atmosphere.

Arugula salad was delicious. Fireplace was cozy. Steve the bartender was the best part of the evening. So incredibly attentive and talented mixologist.

The lobster bisque was delicious. The service is very good, attentive and they give recommendations. A very nice and upscale place.

Forty years later, and it's still iconic + at the top of my go-to list. Ted Gidley is a phenomenal chef. The beautifully prepared food, including summer sushi + raw oysters, never disappoints.The wine list is spectacular and I was able to enjoy a single glass of Opus One...who offers that?! They do!We ate simply with a warm brussel caesar, beef carpaccio and Candy Store burger. Always looking forward to my next dinner out!

When we entered they offered to check my wife's coat and mine, so we handed them over. When I tried to get our coats back the man asked for $4. I explained that I had not known that I would be charged, and he insisted and pointed to a small sign which had not been within my line of sight, stating the fee. I then tried to pay but he did not accept card payment and demanded cash. Without my winter coat, he directed me to an outside ATM to get cash. This was after I had already tipped the server well on our expensive meal.
