Winfield's — Restaurant in New Shoreham

Unfortunately, our experience was unpleasant. The place is typically very cozy & and nice, albeit on the very expensive side, so expectations are high. However, our recent experience put us nearly inside the kitchen. It seemed like the staff made it a point to create as much unnecessary noise as they could. It was unprofessional. The busboy smelled like he just crawled out of a dirty ashtray. He went out of his way to reach over us (my wife) when he easily could've gone around our tiny table to deliver bread & water. This was also unprofessional and just not very appetizing. The food wasn't close to what we've become accustomed to. We've been eating at Winfields for 30 years. Our dinner wasn't properly cooked & was below average. We weren't even asked if we enjoyed it. The atmosphere was also unpleasant. Obviously, a very small restaurant is going to be noisy. But the noise should be coming from the patrons, not the kitchen and the staff. My impression was that the chef, staff (except our waitress who tried her best) & management just didn't want to be there - Sometimes, when the season is nearly over, this happens. Hopefully, it was just a bad night. It would be a shame if Winfields joins the many other places that aren't what...

Favorite restaurant on the island for my partner and me for over 25 years. The food never disappoints and it’s worth going just to experience the warm bread and garlic butter. Similar to other restaurants on the island, service was disappointing. We were a table of 9 squeezed into a corner. We ordered drinks and food when we sat and never saw the waiter again. We would have liked to have ordered a second round of drinks or would have settled for water refills but couldn’t get anyone’s attention. We finally had to request, and received, water refills when we got the check. We ordered steaks, fish, and chicken but no knives were provided so we all shared the three butter knives still on the table. All in all, while the food was excellent, my party would rather have been at a restaurant with a view and better service while on vacation. We’ll be back next year but I won’t be bringing friends as none of them...

Best restaurant on block island! Started with complimentary fresh rustic bread and a giant clove of garlic roasted, served with olive oil. Scallop appetizer was phonomenal and melted in your mouth. Bruschetta was fantastic with great flavors and fresh ingredients. Grilled pork chop entree was to die for. Perfectly cooked and topped with a heavenly bacon apple slaw. For dessert i had the lemon marscapone cake and it was out of this world! Definately have to get an after dinner coffee drink which they have many to choose from. All the dishes seemed to go together in a beautiful balance and the flavors are something you will be thinking about for days after your meal. Waitress was an adorable eareopean girl who catered to our every whim with a warm smile and pleasant demeanor. You can tell the people who work here really love their job and it shows in every detail. Amazing amazing amazing...
