salvation cafe

amazinggreatatmosphere and excellent short menu. our group had four different meals and everyone gave it excellente' reviews!! a must go for an off the strip place in newport.

eclectic decor and we enjoyed sitting in the barn area out back. greatvariety on the menu and excellent seafood dishes. we saved room for dessert and it did not disappoint!

excellent food and drinks - and no summer crowds. can be 4.5 stars based on the food (slight imperfections), but overall experience was excellent, hence the 5 stars.
the drinks were excellent - i had cucumber cooler 11, which was not very sweet and very refreshing, and the mexican mule, made with mezcal - if you like mezcal, this was much stronger, but still a very tasty drink.
for the appetizers we had salmon and white bean crostini - over very tasty (salmon rilette was a bit too dry), and kale caesar salad, which was excellent (my son, who is not into salads, asked for the second helping).
all the dinner dishes were excellent. pad thai -greatflavor, very classic, homey and delicious. teriyaki salmon was tasty, and crispy spinach it was served with was spectacular. sword fish was cooked just right and served with aromatic summer vegetables. tuna ratatouille was encrusted with vegetables and crispy fried (just a touch overcooked at the ends, but very tasty), and heirloom tomato compote was excellent.
all in all, an excellent meal.
great service - prompt and patient (took us some time to decide what to drink and then what to eat).

highly recommended. also, this restaurant offers a nice refuge from humongous summer crowds by the wharf, so double highly recommended during summer.

salvation is a lie. there are two salvations- pre remodel and post remodel. the pre-remodel (pre 2011) was an interesting restaurant. post-remodel is a mean girl terror show. if you want to be abused high school style- this is the place for you. you walk in and maybe after 15 minutes some staff might notice you. there are 5 boring taps. if the bartender isn't too busy with their friends you might get a good drink and then again maybe not. the food has become downright bad.
tourists who find salvation rate it interesting. locals know how far it has fallen and stay away. most importantly the owner manipulates the ratings- try it out- post a bad review and it gets removed. this is not agreatrestaurant. this is a sad restaurant that rests on laurels of days gone by.

salvation cafe is a wise choice for anyone visiting newport. the diverse menu offers options for everyone. the beautiful setting,greatservice, and excellent food make salvation cafe one of the top choices for sunday brunch in the area.

salvation cafe is agreatchoice for sunday brunch. the food was excellent, prices were affordable, service was great, and the cozy dining room made for a romantic setting. i would definitely visit salvation cafe again on any future visit to newport. one of the best restaurants i have tried out in the area, and definitely the most accommodating in terms of dietary restrictions. while researching healthy restaurants in the newport area, i randomly came across salvation cafe. despite many trips to the newport area, i had never seen or heard of the cafe. the location on broadway street instead of the more popular and congested thames street could explain the missed opportunity. i was delighted with the cozy atmosphere, healthy menu options, and quiet atmosphere at this cafe. food brunch was excellent. i also appreciated the ability to specialty order the breakfast burritos vegetarian or vegan (not many restaurants give you this option). the burrito was a delicious combination of black bea

simply the best fun spot in newport.greatfood

fun, funky, tasty. cool atmosphere, creatively decorated in an artsy-funky style, the salvation cafe is agreatplace to hang out with friends and/or eat at the bar... the service is very friendly, and the drinks are well made. i highly recommend the ribs, pad thai, and diver scallops.

very fun withgreatfood. excellent service andgreatfood. we look forward to returning. sit outside if you can.

a comfortable, relaxed environment with agreat(small) eclectic menu. i had the pad thai, which was nothing super special, but a friend had mako shark and it was delish. also, try the tuna poke and jar of sangria.

the atmosphere is fantastic - cozy, funky and fun. menu is creative and delicious. attentive yet relaxed service.greatspot!

food wasgreatbut the service we experienced was awful. bartender was biggest noon on earth and had to refer to a manual at one point for info about drink ingredients. the margarita was shaken in a cup rinsed in dirty sink water and tasted that way. avoid the bar and mixed drink. the masala chick peas were unbelievable though.
