What Amos Legros doesn't like about Caffe IL Farro:
True wine sauce is over powered by lemons, the restaurant hit charges an extra 3% for credit card/debit card useable, chef came to my table and his chef coat was all dirty, restaurant does not know the difference between a Chocolate soufflé or a truffle cake. risotto is not risotto two stars for the staff. View all feedback. What Renee Ruano likes about Caffe IL Farro:

Il Farro offers a dining experience that is a blend of highs and lows. Some customers found the food and service to be exceptional, with compliments for the fantastic food, quick service, and friendly owners. On the other hand, there were complaints about certain aspects such as overpowered sauces, extra charges for card use, dirty chef coats, slow service, and mix-ups with orders. However, the overall consensus seems to be positive, with many reviewers praising the fresh homemade pasta and delicious food options. Despite some minor setbacks, it seems that Il Farro is a hidden gem in Newport that is worth a visit for anyone looking for good Italian food.

Excellent authentic Italian. On the pricey side. About $30 per plate. But good! Very nice staff. Alcohol is expensive in new port at any restaurant.

The wild boar pappardelle was way too salty. Other dishes were fine. Friendly staff. A bit noisy for conversation but a happy place.
