The Black Pearl

This is the place for Clam Chowder . The Filet is awesome as well comes with crispy fries ! Dip the fries in the Bernaise !! The pub is quick but a bit noisy . You need a collar on your shirt in dining rm

Amazing place, for sure going back, try the oysters , Baked brie and of course the clam chowder soup ...

Delicious meal. I'm pretty sure grey sole I ordered was actually scrod or cod of some sort. It was very good nevertheless, but definitely was not grey sole. 

The swordfish sandwich was pretty good. Cajun seasoning and blackened. If you enjoy spicy food , this will hit the spot. Comes with fries .

The lobster salad sandwich in a croissant and the clam chowder soup was delish!

Great dinner , tasty seafood , intimate environment. Get the clam chowder and mussels

Chowder ! Fill up on a hearty bowl of creamy clam chowder at one of their outdoor cafe tables.

Drink mudslides out on the patio and get some sun before boarding the Adirondack II. A perfect way to cap off (or pregame) your sailing expedition. Read more

Black Pearl is an institution and a must do for anyone in town for a short stint.

Once it gets nice out sit on the patio and order a bowl of clam chowder . Heaven on Earth!

Chowder here is their best seller...always perfect, not too thick and just the right amount of everything.

Order a Dark n' Stormy (Bermudian Ginger Beer and Gosling's Dark Rum ) for a taste of Newport's favorite summer drink .

Good for a cup of chowder and a drink. Rowdier than most of the other spots around, but that's not bad

Chowder was great and the halibut was exceptional.

The clam chowder does in deed rock! Forget legal seafood in beantown. Nice to sit out and have a margarita with the chowder . The margarita was kinda small though.

Classic Newport. Great seafood and non seafood choices . Same prices as restaurant row wannabes. Sit in the pub side.

Perfect outdoor seating area to catch the sunset and watch some of ships come in.

The tavern is more a place for groups - much too loud for a nice dinner . But great food though!

The rolls are so good you may get full before your meal comes.

Can't beat the chowder on the patio in the summer

Not the greatest food in the world but a great spot for a few drinks and people watching .

Love the chowder , lunch at their outdoor patio is a must for me in the summer.

Mussels !! The seafood is very good.
