My wife and I went for her Birthday dinner. It was Restaurant Week in Newport so the place was packed. The hostess was not gracious at all and stormed around the restaurant with a scowl on her face. When we were seated (a half hour late), it took our waiter 20 minutes to even show up at our table. The... more

My wife and I did the Private Romance Room package, which is a private dining room, personalized menu, and they play your music (I brought 2 CD's). Absolutely no complaints, one of the best meals we have ever eaten. Service was also great. Not cheap ($500 after wine pairings), but worth it, compared with other top restaurants. Chef Kyle Ketchum... more

I went to a number of restaurants in Newport, and the Spiced Pear is no question the best. The service was excellent, the prices we on par with what I would expect for a nice restaurant, the setting is elegant and special (fantastic water view), and I would highly recommend this to my friends and family. Not a place for... more

Went to the Spiced Pear on the end of the Cliffwalk in the Chantel Hotel. Everything was amazing. The clam chowder is sort of a bisque, but only better. the Berkshire pork is to die for. Service is top notch and the view is spectacular. more

Recently dined here and was so pleased! The food was delicious and the service was perfect! I'll definitely return! more

I spoke to a very nice gentleman and told him it was my wife & my 27th anniversary, and we were hoping to get a nice table at a window facing the ocean. We were perfectly happy eating at any time,... more

We were seated at a table with a great view of the Narragansett Bay. The person who seated us wished us a happy anniversary as did all of the... more

My wife and I dined at Spiced Pear on Saturday evening the 22nd of Nov for dinner. On top of the service not being up to par the food was just awful. Specifically, our first course was Foie Gras, which was undercooked and tasted more like Pate. Unfortunately this was the least of our problems, our 2nd course of crab... more

My husband and I went to the Spiced Pear while we were on our honeymoon. The food was less than decent and the portions were bird size. We got a bottle of water and it became communal water that neighboring tables used...for $10 THATS MY WATER!!! the other tables also paid for a $10 bottle without even a new one... more
