West Newport
This Chef doesn't mess around. A bit pricey however the food is so worth it! The duck liver pate was absolutely amazing and you have to try the octopus salad. I have never in my life has such tender octopus! The fillet with roasted garlic is another favorite. The Fall and Winter months the Chef serves a steak tatare and is how it should be prepared; with a quail's egg!
