    I was not thrilled with my steak - it seemed smaller than normal and had a lot of fat.

    Excellent dining experience! The food was wonderful (plus i have a gluten allergy that well-tended to, felt great about everything I ordered). Server was also top-notch. Superb Newport dining experience.

    Everything was perfect. Our server, Manny, was amazing. Thanks so much for a great holiday meal for my family. We will be back. Truffle mac and cheese never fails and the ambience was wonderful for all.

    Everything seemed to be a bit off tonight. First of all really noisy! Service was ok not the most attentive, food was either warm or cold noting served hot! Not the same restaurant that I grew up loving, I'm from Newport and I've always bragged that 22 Bowens was our best restaurant???
