Review of Jo's American Bistro

24 Memorial Blvd W, Newport, RI 02840

Overall Rating

Review


My 10 year old daughter has celiac disease and we felt very comfortable having her eat here. The staff was knowledgeable, the manager brought her lunch out separately from the rest of our meals and hers came on a different colored plate. She chose a cheeseburger and fries (they have a separate dedicated fryer) and said it was delicious. She’s picky about gf buns and really liked this one. There were several GF options and the overall menu was very good. We all enjoyed our meals. We also felt safe eating there as this is the first time we’ve eaten inside of a restaurant since Covid. We ate upstairs in the smaller room behind the bar which was lined with windows, the manager opened several for us as well the door, we felt safe and the service was wonderful. We would definitely eat there again.
