The Scene – Brick-red walls and playful details combine with luxurious, velvety furnishings and cherry-wood floors to create a fun, stylish, cozy atmosphere. Eighteen-foot ceilings allow for grand, square columns, beaded chandeliers and stage-worthy red drapes. – – The Food – Warm focaccia starts the meal--but go easy, as appetizers are generous. Try mild, crispy duck quesadillas, given a pleasant kick from chili-spiked salsa. Tender, bite-sized ahi tuna and salmon tartare is layered onto fried wontons with wasabi viniagrette. Creative seasonal entrees include duck…
Editor's Tips
- Save Money:
- A fixed-price menu of starter, entree and dessert ($38 with wine, $28 without) is perfect for pre-theater dining.
- The Extras:
- During the winter, high tea is a treat, with finger sandwiches, pastries and individual tea service ($20).
- When to Go:
- Monday nights feature smaller tasting portions of dinner menu plates along with two-ounce pours of 10 wines not offered by the glass.

Great Food, Great Place!

I went here with my friend, Ryan, and we both thought it was pretty nice. I came in a penguin polo and didn't feel overdressed. Their dark chocolate cake was incredible, my favorite food other than chili fries under the pier!
Overall, the prices seemed a bit steep, but it was fair once you saw the quality of the food. It's quite a drive from Newport, but it's worth it!
Good food

I thought that this would just be another over-priced hotel restaurant, but the service and food quality make this restaurant well worth the visit. My meal was so good i even decided to have dessert, (which i never do). I was very pleased with my experience here.
- Pros: food, friendly service in a timely manner
- Cons: slightly pricey
Fine food and even better ambiance

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at the Atwood. The food was beautifully presented and tasted excellent! The waiter was friendly and accomodating, all while being very professional. As awesome as the starters and entrees are, save room for dessert. You will not be disappointed!
Fantastic. Everyone should eat here.

We went to the Atwood Cafe for the first time for my mom's birthday, and it was one of the best restaurant experiences i have ever had. This place puts out some very big flavors for such a small location. The ahi tuna and salmon tartar was our favorite appetizer of the evening. My mm loved her filet with truffle butter. I had an arctic char with rosemary sauce that was absolutely divine. we all enjoyed their banana bread pudding with white chocolate and caramel. all the portions were extremely generous and the staff was very attentive (for instance, i am an aspiring restaurateur, and the manager came over to have a lengthy discussion about the industry with me) over all, the Atwood Cafe offers not only a good meal but also a fantastic dining experience.
Love the Atwood Cafe!

I have been there a few times for breakfast and each time it has been great! The food and service are awesome and the atmosphere is cozy and romantic. While I have never been for dinner or lunch I would definitely reccomend the Atwood for breakfast or brunch.
