This is the best place to get some raw bar seafood. They always have a great variety of oyster selections and they do an ethos shucking them so they are clean with no shell. The shrimp cocktail and lobster are also delicious. Ella did a great job with service, and we have always had exceptional service every time we visit. This is a must try while in Newport.
