What WandaH likes about The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar:
Our evening at The Mooring was a wonderful experience. Our waitress Christine was extremely infectious and helpful and heightened the experience. The oysters were quite tasty, the tuna cooked and seasoned to perfection, the veggie salad that came with the tuna was an absolute perfect complement. The key lime pie was excellent. Would definitely recommend The Mooring AND Christine. View all feedback. What Keeley Simonis doesn't like about The Mooring Seafood Kitchen & Bar:
Warm clam chowder, no anchovies or garlic in Ceasar salad dressing and warm, uncut chicken breast placed on the plate with the salad earn a out of stars in our book. The service was ok and the ambience nice. I would not recommend or frequent this restaurant again unless no other options exist View all feedback.

The Moderate noise level is NOT a negative. It is the ambience of a waterfront restaurant in Newport in the Summer!
