What a hidden gem on the ocean! The restaurant was absolutely amazing, with excellent service from start to finish. We had the cod and the lobster pasta — both were a 10+, truly the best we’ve ever had.
A special mention to our server, Olivia, who was incredibly attentive and always right there when we needed anything. Her friendly, professional service made an already wonderful meal even better. Highly recommend!

Came here for lunch on a whim. The setting was beautiful and the atmosphere upscale and comfortable. Amazing views of the water.
We were promptly greeted and sat by the hostess, with our waitress not far behind. Waters and drink orders were prompt and kept full.
Lunch was delicious. Fish and chips, Mediterranean chicken, and the Striped Bass special were all delicious.
Looking forward to returning again!

When in Rome, right? I had a serious craving for a lobster roll while visiting downtown Newport, but I was completely overwhelmed by how packed everything was with tourists. So, on my way back to Connecticut, my family and I decided to stop in Jamestown instead and I’m so glad we did! We stumbled upon this beautiful restaurant right on the water. The lobster roll was excellent (they offer both hot and cold versions), and paired with some cozy fall drinks and that gorgeous ocean view, I couldn’t have been happier we made this little detour.

Five stars across the board. We were in town for a concert and are in our fifties. It was not too crowded, the atmosphere was wonderful, especially being on the waterfront. We ate outside and our server, Lily, was excellent…super friendly and helpful but not bothersome. We ordered the lobster roll and fish and chips, and for drinks we ordered a Pink Peppah and a Sunset Thyme, really enjoyed them all. We would stop back again for sure if our future travels take us this way. Well done, JB’s!

On the East Coast for a wedding in Newport RI and we stopped in for an early dinner at JB’s. We were sat at a table with a view of the bay. We ordered contrails from a tempting list of unique offerings. I had a rum based drink that was everything I expected. Flavorful and strong.
Next we had a whipped goat cheese app that was savory and a great texture with toast points that were perfectly crispy, but still soft enough to not fall apart when bite into it.
Next we shared a blackened Shrimp Caesar and a Fig Burger. Great flavor on the Caesar, and the fig burger was top notch.
Taking a piece of chocolate cake back to the hotel for a late night treat. All in all this place was amazing and I can only imagine how fantastic it must be on a sunny summer weekend.
10 out of 10. Would definitely recommend.

Food was fantastic for smaller plate breakfast food. The staff was really friendly and helpful at all times. The view is fantastic and this seems to be a small hidden gem in the area. Parking can be an issue so plan accordingly. I would visit here again.

I wish I took a picture of my food to share with you all but it looked so good that I ate it pretty immediately. It was delicious! Great service with beautiful views of the water.

I have eaten at Wickford on the Water and enjoyed it so we decided to try this sister restaurant on our recent trip to RI. I got the fish Reuben and absolutely loved the flavors. The cheese could have been more melted and the sandwich overall could have been warmer. It wasn’t cold but not as hot as I’d wanted. My mom enjoyed her salad and felt it was fresh with a nice combo of flavors. A different server brought our food- my mom was washing up when our server came to ask how the food was. It had literally just been set down and only one of us was at the table. She also asked to take our order immediately when we sat down. Service was still good, just some fine tuning of timing would make things more relaxing. There are lots of yummy looking options on the menu and I’d definitely eat here again. I wish it was located in my home state. The view is beautiful, just perfect. The bathroom is located in the attached hotel and you need to go through the hotel and downstairs to find it. I’d recommend trying this restaurant. It was perfect to drive over the bridge from Newport, have an early dinner, then drive back to Newport for a sunset sail.
