I've read some great reviews on this place, and while it wasn't top on my list (we were looking forward to great seafood, french and upscale restaurants to dine at), it certainly was a delicious meal! One evening, after a full day of touring Newport, we decided not to get dressed up to go out to an expensive meal. Instead,... more

Funky atmosphere was lively, service was as good as possible considering they were packed. Drinks and food were delicious and we returned the next night for a repeat performance. We'd definitely recommend this restaurant! more

Nice, fresh energy at the hip Salvation Cafe. Innovative and skillful meals on a small and focused menu. Great fish and vegetarian dishes.

Despite the initial misgivings when you first step into the restaurant, everything that follows is fantastic.Keep walking and you'll find yourself in a garden patio reminiscent of southern California. Cool, hip, funky, wild...whatever. Decor and atmosphere are surpassed only by the food. I had Tandouri striped bass and it was the best meal I've ever had. And when you enjoy... more

My husband and I happened upon the Salvation Cafe recently while celebrating his birthday in Newport. We were drawn there by the ecclectic menu described in our AAA guide. We were not diappointed. The menu was not extensive but very ecclectic with something for every taste, including vegetarians. The wait staff were very attentive and accomodating, but not intrusive. We... more
