  Wow, what a disappointment. I have lived in Newport for 8 years and this was my go to for good food, but it has changed so much this last year. The wait staff are just plain awful. No people skills what’s so ever. Food takes for ever to get to the table with no communication from the staff. The food came out cold like it was sitting in the back. My wife’s turkey melt was made with chicken. I as a local have given Szabos its last try and now will take my business elsewhere.

  This restaurant was ok. First the waitress was very sassy and she got my order wrong. The clam chowder tasted like it came from a can with paprika on top.

  Terrible food acompanied with terrible service. Went to the coast for my boyfriends birthday. Saw the sign on the way back to the hotel and it got us hungry for steak/bbq. When we entered the establishment there was a sign saying please wait to be seated. Well we waited for 2-3 mintues and no one greeted us, although the woman behind the bar clearly saw us and so did the other waitress. We ended up seating ourselves, the table was sticky. We sat for close to 5 mintues and no one came to give us menus or welcome us. The waitstaff just continued chatting away with bar patrons. We had to get up and ask for the menus ourselves. My boyfriend ordered the 11 oz ribeye and I ordered the 7oz bbq chicken entree. His steak came out covered in charchol marks from the grill. Overly cooked one side and under cooked on the other. It tasted as if you had licked the bottom of a grill that hadn’t been cleaned in over a year. My chicken was bone dry, so dry that the knive did not even cut into. I had to rip it apart with my hands and fork, when I took a bite I nearly choked on the dryness. I could barely even swallow. The mixed veggies that came with both meals were a complete random mix of things. It seems as if they had taken every spare veggie they had that was close to being bad and tossed it together. They were not consistent in thier cooking, as some were over cooked and complete mush and some were still hard/raw. The side dishes were luke warm at best. Our waitress did not come to check on us once. She continued to chat it up with a single bar patron. When I made obvious glances her way trying to signal that we needed drink refills she moved her body behind a woodem support beam so as to block us from her view. We had to get up and walk to the bar to ask for drink refills. When paying over $15+ per meal I expect to have good food, this food was terrible. How does a steak house screw up a steak and bbq chicken? This was the worst service I have ever received in any single establishment, and I tend to eat out at least 2 times per week. I would never return nor reccomend this place to anyone I know.
