Fluke Wine, Bar & Kitchen
401-849-7778
Fluke Wine, Bar & Kitchen has only been in business since 2007—but has already received wide-spread critical praise for both its unique food and sweepingly beautiful architectural interior. The owners have managed to bring a bright, new atmosphere; a progressive, seasonal menu featuring fresh, local ingredients; and a vast wine list to Newport's already well-known, high-end, fine-dining scene. Fluke has a warm family-feel despite its clean-cut angles and modern appeal with waterfront views that will make diners never want to leave.
