   Food was very good, though the vegetables on the side of my entree were fermented and not particularly great. My cocktail was ok (jalapeño Paloma) though a bit watery and not much of a jalapeño taste. Atmosphere was good and I was able to chat easily with friends without concern for noise.

   The new management has really done a great job with this restaurant...their staff is very amenable and knowledgeable.. the food was all great and white it was not busy, would have been worth the wait if it had been..a must visit when in Newport.

   We have been loyal customers of Shells and Scales for years. We didn’t know about the change of ownership until we asked for our favorite dishes. Although we had to pivot, the new menu was great. We shared the octopus appetizer which was delicious and well portioned. I had a daily special consisting of mussels and shrimp in an absolutely amazing tomato sauce over homemade pasta. My wife had the swordfish which she sad was very fresh and delicious. So it may be different from the past but we’ll definitely be back soon!

   The food is excellent and the breadbox is delicious. Just be forewarned, it's not the old Scales & Shells we all grew up with. It's a much more upscale dining experience with the prices to match. The service is professional and curt, not warm and effusive like the old days. Also, the portions are enough and you will not be taking home a to-go box for lunch the next day. All in all, very good for a romantic date night out.

   Beautiful restaurant, a little noisy because the kitchen is inside of the dining area. Food was absolutely delicious! Their pasta and bread is handmade in house. Our server was so kind and attentive. Thank you!

   I would have given the overall experience a 5, however it was so cold in the restuarant we had to eat with our coats on. Many of the other patrons did the exact same thing. The oysters were delicious and the swordfish with lemon sauce was scrumptious and done to perfection. Our server was lovely. Way too cold! !
