Those looking to enjoy a formal meal of upscale Mediterranean fare head upstairs or onto the open-air seating area. Entrees include roasted rack of lamb with caramelized onions and minted tarragon glaze; wood-grilled filet mignon with goat cheese and chive mash, morels and port-wine reduction; and rack of venison with black trumpet mushrooms and acorn-squash risotto.

In response to some of the reviews about the Cookehouse I think the people who have complaints about tables and service is understandable but a misunderstanding as well. There are some rules that Cookehouse has that make it run smoothly. One of them is a dress code. At night after 7 proper dress is required (no hats, torn jeans, and a collared shirt for men). If someone had entered the dining room before this time they would be allowed in. Hence the reason you saw people leaving who did not have "proper" dress. As for changing a 4 top to a 6 that is the way they change the tables. Everyone receives this service and it is not a last minute decision but planned out that a table of 6 would be seated there. There are very few tables that will fit 6 and to accommodate more larger parties they will arrange the table in order to comfortably fit more than 4. The Cookehouse has a great menu and experienced staff. Don't leave without trying the snowball in hell!
Pros: ultimate experience of Newport
Cons: parking
