Having just moved to Newport, and heard all the buzz about Cheeky Moneky, I was very excited to have a fabulous meal. The ambience is second to none and the decor was top-notch. The service was incredible. Yet, I have to say that the food was very disappointing. The menu was quite small. I ordered a pork tenderloin that was average, but the mashed potatoes definitely tasted like they were shaken out of a box and the sauce from the tenderloin tasted like it came out a Hunt's can. There's nothing wrong with any of that if you know that's what you're getting. It tasted like diner food for which I paid $28 a plate. Not worth it.
I will definitely return for cocktails.
Pros: Great Ambience, Incredible Decor, Very Good Service
Cons: Very High Prices, Average Food
