Atlantic Grille

Esperamos un buen rato para poder entrar. Es un lugar muy muy concurrido. Pedimos una ensalada con salmón asado sobre colchón de espinaca, salsa de frutos rojos y queso de cabra. Lo recomiendo, muy fresco y sobre todo fue realmente abundante. Recomiendo no pedir entrada.

This WAS steak and eggs… It was seriously good. It seems like simple task but I am never disappointed when I come here… The steak tasted like a great steak and everything else followed suit. The Managment makes it all seem so easy… I have been in and around the food business most of my life… And they just seem to not only get it but the whole staff seems to get it.
When I used to run a place I would tell my wait staff, when training them, this job is fairly simple… People come in and ask you for stuff and you bring it to them… The rest is style and we will want to work on that!
The Atlantic Grill has worked on that!

I can’t say I’ve ever had a bad experience here, and I’ve been coming here for the last year now! They are one of the best brunch spots in the area. With an ever-​changing specials menu you’re guaranteed something to appease your palate.
Here’s some of the combination omelets I’ve had and absolutely love:
*eggs, goat cheese, avocado, bacon, spinach
*eggs, goat cheese, broccoli, spinach, mushrooms
*eggs, goat cheese, avocado, sun-​dried tomatos, spinach
Yes… I know, I love goat cheese, but these are all from the weekly specials, and the staff is SO amazing at accommodating your omelets desires; even when you order the Salmon Omelet, without the salmon [everything else in it just sounded so amazing!].
They always have sweet bread as a toast option, and I mean, what’s better than sweet bread?!
The staff is always super nice; the place is always clean; and although sometimes there is a bit of a wait… the wait is always worth it!

Great chourico breakfast sandwich and calamari at reasonable price. We loved it and its portuguese owned. Will definitely come back next time in the area.

Came here for breakfast. Good service and good food. We were a party of 12 and everyone enjoyed their food.
Just make sure you look at the blackboard that’s where they post their specials.

Not a bad place for Sunday brunch. Wish they included the juice in the price as it gets expensive if you order juice. Food is overall good. Service is okay. Overall a solid four.

The salmon spinach avocado and goat cheese special omelette was outstanding! It was abundant and for some it could be 2 meals. The hash browns were crispy – just the way I like them. The wait staff was attentive with the coffee and eager to serve.

Went in at 2:25 and ordered three burgers. Over forty minutes and no food had come out. They never stopped by to offer any apologies or check in. We asked and were told that it was because we ordered one well done. Absolutely no empathy nor apologies for an absolutely horrible wait time. Would highly recommend skipping this place and go to McDonalds.

Great spot for breakfast. It is a diner type of breakfast place. Food is good, service is great — but gets packed for brunch during the summer months. prime location!

Great place to go for a home cooked style breakfast.
The «Third beach» is excellent with very generous portions.
Go before 9 on Sunday if you don’t want to wait.

The AG has become an Aquidneck Island institution, originally it was cash only, yet lines were long then and still are especially on the weekends. They have nice U shaped bar to the left side, that has a fair amount of seating away from the bar.
To the right is a dining room with a small foyer with the hostess station. The booths can fit six adults comfortably.
Breakfast:
They have 16 Omelet choices as well as build your own. I like the Greek Omelet and the Atlantic Grille Omelet (chourico, bacon, onion & cheddar).
There is a Eggs Benedict (Bennies) menu with 7 varieties, weekends only.
The Beaches menu has eggs in your favorite style paired with thoughtful sides, the usual suspects with flair (french toast, Belgian waffles, pancakes, fruit, yogurt, granola, breakfast meats) .
In a hurry get a breakfast sandwich. I like the AG Breakfast Sandwich
scrambled egg, bacon, chourico & onion with cheddar on an english muffin.
(by now you see the chourico pattern)
Of course you can order a la carte as well. The coffee is very good.
Lunch/​Dinner:
They have an array of salads, burgers, wraps and sanwiches. There are specials and enough seafood choices for the weary beach bum. A standout for me in the Portuguese Kale Soup. I also admit to eating one or four of the «Stuffies» Quahog stuffed with ritz crackers and chourico. The Lobster roll weighs in at $ 16.
* parking: there is a lot it fills up not too many places to stash the car.
* chourcico hash, Belgian waffles, Irish Benny (beef hash).
* on your own or a couple? hit the bar if you can find a spot.
* prices are Newport rates but the quality is there.
* try that Kale soup.

Our waitress made many mistakes. She didn’t put in our app… after waiting for a half hour we asked her and she told us she forgot. One of our beers was flat. Wrong type of french fries were sent out and charged extra for on the bill. Basically a disaster, which when we saw we got charged extra and asked to speak with the manager she rolled her eyes and was unapologetic. I have never felt so compelled to write a review, it’s actually my first Unilocal review.
So many good places to eat in Newport, do not settle for awful service and even worse management and food. Go to Salvation café, Red Parrot or Speakeasy depending on what you are in the mood for.

Well, the best place we have been to for brunch in a long time! Nice venue, super nice waitress, the benedicts are amazing and portions are very generous. I recommend the bennies and beaches formula. Beaches have salty sweet included, and the drink. We will come back and take pics this time!
Bonus, they got stickers and tatoos for the kids!

I was heading to Anthony’s but it closed at 8:30 pm on a Sunday so I decided to try Atlantic Grille.
This place is definitely a casual, easy going local’s restaurant. Very Family friendly.
Service was lickety split fast. Got my beer in nano seconds. Wait staff is super nice, very efficient & accommodating. I ordered a bowl of clam chowder bc I was famished. It was NOT broth based. It is the thicker based chowdah. An earlier review had said it was not thick & to die for. I thought it was good but not earth shatteringly amazing. I then opted for the baked sea scallops with mash & veggie medley. It was very good. The veggies were sautéed simply in evoo & herbs, & the red potato mash was simply prepared with a bit if cream, butter & salt.
This place has solidly good food in a very casual Family friendly environment :)
I am definitely looking forward to coming here for breakfast as the reviews and pics are stellar…

Great place with a full service bar. The clam chowder is to die for. It isn’t cream based which is hard to do. The menu is good for the family or foodies that are looking for fresh seafood. This place seems to be packed all the time. Friendly service too.

What can I say about the Atlantic grille here in newport. The best breakfast here on the other side of the bay, with 1^st and 2^nd beach just a walk away. I have never had a bad experience here with breakfast or lunch. The one thing that makes it a 5 star is they grill the muffins. On Sunday better get here before the church crowd and hungover drunks it gets busy

I asked several people for their best breakfast spot around Newport and a couple mentioned this place. I’m glad they did because it’s delicious. It was pretty crowded so I ate at the bar. The food was excellent and I’m including a picture. My only gripe is that the service was somewhat slow. I’m sure due to how busy they were. If you’re in Newport or the surrounding area, give this place a shot. Go early though… beat the crowd.

Peaks at breakfast. Every item on the breakfast menu is absolutely delicious. However, the restaurant does not transition as well over to lunch & dinner.
I would recommend for the best breakfast/​brunch place in Newport RI (besides a few high end places like Castle Hill) but definitely not as much of a lunch/​dinner place.

Great place for breakfast near first (Easton’s) beach!
I’ve eaten breakfast here several times and have never had anything that I didn’t love. They have several egg Benedict’s and specials. From almond sweet bread to California omelets really great choices.
This place can get busy especially on the summer, so expect a short wait.
I’ve had lunch here a couple times, which is also good. I’m a big fan of their kale and chorizo soup.
I have not been here at night but they have a full bar and a trivia night as well.
The best part is it is a short walk from the beach. Location, location, location!

Drove by looking for a good place to eat and saw the wait. Figured with that many people flocking to this spot, it’s probably pretty good. Put our name down for the 35 minute wait.
I was a bit irked when I saw multiple open tables yet nobody being seated. In fact, the very table we were eventually seated at was vacant for at least 10 minutes while I stood waiting.
Food was decent. I got a Cajun burger that was pretty dry, but the fries were great. My table thought their food was better than average. Ranged from lobster omelette, to egg sandwich. They also have a full bar, so in attempts to cure my hangover, I ordered a Bloody Mary which was surprisingly enjoyable.
Ambience was interesting. It felt a bit «chain restaurant» like, very generic. But at least it was very clean!

Great local haunt for any meal, though brunch is the big draw. We had a dinner and a brunch while staying a mile away in Middletown. You can’t go wrong ordering anything with scallops for dinner. The chowdah is very good too. For brunch, we had the Lobster Benedict (how could you not), which filled me for half a day with all its blue-​collar decadence.
The service is very friendly and brisk. The wait for breakfast is not so bad (we were told 45 minutes but the actual wait time was under 20). The angled parking lot has limited spots (be careful pulling out onto the busy road), but spaces were open or freeing up both times we came so there’s plenty of turnover.
All in all, a very good local seafood grill.
