Amazing spot! The food is amazing , great service, and beautiful waterfront views. A must when in Newport!
My sister dined here before and wanted to revisit with me.
I ordered the seafood pasta $38 without lobster tail based on Yelp photos and she ordered a "cup" of clam chowder $9 and lobster roll $36. The menu definitely has changed from what currently comes with the meal. Past patrons had options o
Excellent dinner choice
Went to Moorings with my wife when our first trip to Newport. We love the decor in our table had a view overlooking the water. The service was very good and the food was also I would highly recommend this restaurant.
Waterfront dining and lots of fresh seafood options.
Loved all our food... oysters, clam chowder, and pan roasted cod. Seriously so delicious. Service was attentive but not overbearing. Would recommend and great for large groups.

Came to Newport for our 10 year dating anniversary and 1 year marriage anniversary. The Mooring had exceptional service from start to finish! We were about 30min early, and they had a table ready for us. Analiese was our server who did an amazing job
Highly recommend a reservation during peak season.
Whenever I'm back in RI, I try to make my way over to The Mooring. I always get the fritters - so good! My friend loves their chips and dip. Their seafood towers have been great, especially in a bigger group. I tend to get a lobster dish - I

We enjoyed the crab cakes, seafood pasta, fritters, clam crowder and oysters Rockefeller. Thought the lobster roll warm & cold was good but roll was a little bit too toasty for us. We would recommend this restaurant.
Favorite New England Treasure!
We made reservations to eat here two nights in a row and are glad we did as it was a very popular restaurant! I have to say, out of all the restaurants we ate at over our 12 day trip to New England, this one was our favorite. Quality food and great

A must! The best oysters I have ever had and they change them frequently which is amazing. The burrata beet salad is so yummy as well! We also enjoy the fish and chips! Great service and ambiance.
We came as a party of five plus a toddler.
We arrived a little early (around 3:55 for a 4:15 reservation) but weren't seated until our exact reservation time, even though there were several open tables. Not a big deal, but a little odd. Our waitress was okay--friendly but not super atten
AWSOME

We came into town at approximately 2:00 in the afternoon.
We were starving so we came here because it was recommended. We were told at the door that they only had room at the bar and the rest of the restaurant was reservations. We sat at the bar because again we were starving. The bartender was nice but th

Food great but service leaves a lot to be desired
Very welcoming when we arrived and gladly moved us to another table when the one we had been allocated was in direct sunlight. Unfortunately this is when things went a bit awry. We waited over 25mins from ordering a drink for it to be served to us, o

There's a nice enclosed patio with a lovely view adjacent to the docks. The service was good and the food arrived quickly and was hot. The crab cake had excessive breading. The sole dish had two big filets with a good flavor but I question if th

Everything about this dining experience was spectacular! Our waitress was incredibly sweet, checked in on us and gave us great suggestions for meals. We started with the shrimp ceviche and oysters. The oysters were the star of the show - so fresh wit
Great Wine list and Nice Location
Really very good wine list compared to may places and food was really quote good for a tourist part of town. Lobster was quite reasonable too. Very pleasant lunch outside in the sunshine.
Ah-mazing!!!
Wow! Gluten free, dairy free, expecting my normal blah. The Mooring pizzazzed it up extraordinarily! I had the pan roasted cod and I’d have it again and again and again. If only I could stay! Thank you Mooring chefs and staff. Truly a memorable d

Still thinking about the seafood pasta...
Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner at The Mooring. We started with a few oysters, followed by the mussels. Both were fresh and delicious. I had the seafood pasta (probably the best version of it I have ever had), and he had the filet mignon (cooked perfec

Reviews and locals recommended this place.
It was busy with great views. Food was just ok unfortunately. The much raved about buttermilk biscuit tasted like cornbread, quite sweet and very dry. Calamari was chewy. Drinks were good though. Clam chowder was good. Reservations are highly recomme

A once great restaurant that's since devolved into an overpriced tourist trap, though they're far from alone in that sad trend.
Perfect meal with a hiccup!
My boyfriend and I wandered over from our hotel for dinner here. The tents are up for the boat show so it was kinda hard to find but we eventually found it behind the tent! We didn't bother making a reservation because we saw there were a ton a

Superb food.
The clamp chowder is fantastic! My wife is gluten free and shellfish free. They are SO SAFE with the prep. They have a separate GF menu. The staff, especially Tammy, is well trained. They gave me my NGF rolls in a paper bag to prevent potential c

Nice location! Hard to get reservations in the summer! Food was good not great! Service was good.
Wonderful experience!
After a trolley tour, we walked to The Mooring mid afternoon and hoped for a table despite no reservation...and we were seated almost immediately. Our perfect table was on the lower level facing the water, and even at a quiet corner. Perfect 👌

Overrated
Definitely Overrated The seafood pasta/overcooked, scallops were rubbery. We added a lobster tail for $24, but it turned out to be baby lobster tail and very chewy. The halibut dish, paired with peach creamed corn, poblano, and pickled peach relish,

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar Newport at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar Newport page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DistinguishedTree58, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DistinguishedTree58 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DistinguishedTree58 for any questions Peter may have as DistinguishedTree58 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DistinguishedTree58 now uses their connections at The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar Newport to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DistinguishedTree58 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DistinguishedTree58 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DistinguishedTree58's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar Newport!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
