This place is our favorite spot in Newport with so many gluten free options, lobster galore, fun cocktails, and attentive staff. We go every single time we visit Newport.
Everything was good except for the grilled octopus which I sent back because you couldn't even chew it. Second time was better but still just ok. But the standout here was the gluten-free lamb poutine, everyone loved that!
Everything was just right. We almost did not get in though. They seat the last table at 8:45. Our server was wonderful. They were able to accommodate a food sensitivity to gluten, dairy and soy. She had the hamburger and truffle fries. They have a separate gluten free fryer.
We always enjoy our time together at the 99 restaurant. The staff is great, the food is awesome and the 99 offers the most extensive list of gluten sensitive options of any local eateries.
Lauren was our server and literally the best. My friend had a gluten allergy and Lauren literally went thru the menu to reassure my friend of the dishes without gluten. The staff seemed very attentive throughout the whole dining experience too.
One of my family members has a gluten allergy so I've had gluten free pasta before but this was really great and the bechamel sauce hit the spot. They even had a gluten free cake that we tried and it was incredible. It didn't fall apart or crumble which was surprising.
Last time I went, I got the carbonara which was incredible. This time, I switched it up and I got the bologanese, these people don't miss at all.
Solid wine prices with the classic italian reds and good variety on the drink menu. They even an interesting mocktail menu that you can add booze if you want to make it a cocktail.
This place is so much more than just another italian restaurant.
The gluten free pizza is amazing. My GF has VERY high expectations and is also Gluten Free. We came in here 12 mins before close and they made us the BEST GF puzza we have ever had !!
I love Antonio's. I go as often as possible. Their by-the-slice options are fun and always changing. Also, very important for those needing gluten-free options. My wife has to do gluten-free, and I don't mind at all. Their gluten-free crust is the best I have had anywhere.
This meal was refreshing to our palate and digestive system from eating heavy this whole trip. We are glad we stumbled onto this establishment. We ordered the hummus plate with veggies and my first time eating watermelon radish, now probably is my favorite veggie. Also my first time eating a wedge salad with a knife but worth it to have the best salad in a lifetime. Oh just to balance it all with a side of fries as I compared to Wingstop (sometimes not hot/fresh) cause that’s my standard of fresh hot good fires. Also not pictured is the Narragansett beer, is easily my favorite beer of all time due to being smooth that isn’t a lite beer, has the fullness of a beer and don’t taste the hopines of it.
The service was 3.5 stars because we were the only ones when we placed our order and it took a minute to get our veggie plate…. but after that the other two came in a timely fashion. Service provided was welcoming the moment we walked in. Ambiance we had to imagine cause we were the only two until we had to leave but we imagined the full swing of this place of how lively it can be.
**They have good plenty of gluten free options!
My husband and I went here last minute for dinner. Phenomenal clam chowder! Great if you have a gluten allergy! We enjoyed the clam chowder, burger, and the fisherman's platter. Everything was fresh and delicious. We would definitely reccomend coming here and I already can't wait for another bowl of clam chowder!!!
We stopped for lunch and a few beverages while Xmas shopping. Gingerbread man Martini was awsome. Carolyn who was the bartender was our server. She was a blast and made for a fun, enjoyable visit. The food was delicious as well, with Gluten Gree options available. If we are back in Newport we will be back again.
So my review was deleted, here we go again.
Worst experience. We were there with my whole family, a group of 10, we came from Florida, we have an special family event, a wedding today so we’re there having brunch all together and I’m vegan so my whole family were eating and I was with my food and Deverly came to the table making bad faces with body gestures, like she did not wanted me and my husband there. Not saying anything, making us uncomfortable and unwelcome, I said what’s going on? And she said that I was not allowed to bring food from another places and I explained to her that I’m vegan and she was making gestures and her body language was so obvious and looking at us with the hostess so we left. I understand that there’s policies but there’s ways to say it. We will never return.
Response: Well, my review was hidden. Her name is Deborah Lee. We were there on Saturday November 2nd around 1:00 PM and we were inside all the way in the back. We were in 2 tables, 1 table with 6 adults and the other table next to it with 4 children. My mother in law sent me a picture of the menu around 12:13 PM also my brother in law, 12:09 so we were there. There’s a lot of celiac, food allergies, food style around in the world and this is the first time that I was treated like that. Non vegan frendly restaurant at all.
We went on a Wednesday so all the madness was odd. We made a reservation for 7, they asked us to come back at 8. Then we waited until almost 8:30 because the people at our table wouldn't leave. The hostess was very communicative about the wait.
We ordered 2 plates of tortilla chips but they ran out, so we were only able to receive one of the house made chips(they gave us some additional gluten free ones that weren't made at the restaurant that were just like ones you buy at the super market). Our service was fairly sporadic and slow, possibly due to staffing shortages.
Our actual food was delicious, though my burrito bowl came on a plate, not in a bowl or tortilla fried bowl like I've had in other restaurants.
Our waitstaff declined to split our check.
Ambiance on the porch/deck was very cute, with nice fairy lights giving off warm but adequate light to eat by.
Maybe I'll do take out next time.
Fantastic food and service. We had a group of seven and it wasn't a problem for them to handle. The scaliops were some of the best I've had. They were able to accommodate one in our group that was a vegetarian and gluten free. They even had chicken strips on the kids menu to keep everyone happy. Great selection of beer on draft and in cans.
Celiac friendly
