Trattoria Simpatico

Trattoria Simpatico Review

A jazz trio plays on weekday evenings and sunny Sunday afternoons at Jamestown's signature restaurant, while patrons dine alfresco under a copper beech tree. An herb garden, fieldstone walls, and white linen complete the picture. You can munch on splendid salads, Northern Italian pasta dishes, meats prepared with a Continental flair, and a handful of Asian-fusion dishes. Memorable are the tamarind-glazed ribs and braised-beef cassoulet appetizers and the maple-soy glazed tuna pad thai as an entrée. Reservations are essential on summer weekends.

    Stopped in without a reservation last week (next time we will call first) and had a wonderful time. The restaurant is just beautiful with all kinds of rooms to dine in. We ended up dining at the bar and I had a superb espresso martini, though almost too big. Nice, contemporary wine list. We shared the heirloom tomato salad (gorgeous and fresh) and I had the tuna pad thai. Who knew a predominantly Italian restaurant in Jamestown could come up with such a great pad thai!!?? My date had the ribeye and it was thick and juicy. Loved his mashed potatoes. Finished up with the dessert sampler. Nice to escape the Newport madness. I will be back.
