NEW LEVEL FILMS

Great service but food was not good. Shrimp was not deveined. Clam linguine had no flavor and smelled like the fishy ocean, I only took a few bites and I’m really not a picky eater. Lobster was very firm and rubbery. Drinks were great though we had a Bloody Mary and the dells lemonade. Oysters were good as well. Overall I was very disappointed because I had high hopes for this place. I would not recommend to a friend.

Stopped for the raw bar. Oysters are amazing and I'm not one for raw anything. We asked for outside seating with street view. Great for people watching and seeing the cool cars that ride through. Service is a bit slower out there but with it for the views.

I Love going to Midtown anytime I am in Newport RI. Located right in the center of downtown it is a perfect place for a nice dinner and has a great environment. They have a great selection of drinks and food and I have been here for live music as well. Definitely stop here if you’re in Newport and want a great dinner experience.

I saw kids, but no high chairs. More likely to have a booster seat, but you could call and ask.

Can I buy Midtown Oyster Pepper Sauce?

I don't think so

Are reservations accepted?

Rose DC | Sep 6, 2018
Benjamin Nakamura | Sep 6, 2018

Rose, with a large reservation for dinner I recommend calling ahead. The "tourist" season is winding down, so it should not be overcrowded on the weekend. Of note, there is usually always space for 4 or less at or around the bar. I would call ahead to be on the safe side though, especially if you're hungry:)
