    This is a beautiful dining venue. Elegantly decorated and comfortable. The service was slow. The food was excellent but grossly overpriced.

    We love Celeste! Last night we were a little disappointed in the food which we normally love. I had ordered the filet mignon. Temperature was perfect, but there was entirely too much salt used in preparing the steak. Lightly salt for flavor, got it... but this was over the top.

    We have been wanting to try this restaurant since it opened and finally did. My wife and I both had excellent meals and plan to return. We had everything from appetizers to dessert which we don’t normally do (ate the crème brulle there and took the chocolate mousse pie home for later 😊). The menu had a wide selection of seafood and meat options as well as a couple of vegetarian items.

    The cocktails we ordered were terrible. I had to send mine back and the new one i got was still not good. My husband’s cocktail was pretty much all liquor. This is the second time that we have dined at Celeste and the cocktails were bad then too! We know our cocktails and these were not balanced drinks at all. Our server was very accommodating and checked with the kitchen on several issues for me, a food allergy and assistance in the plating of the food (lobster out of the shell for me) because of my broken arm. That being said, the food was very good and we enjoyed several of the specials. The service was great and the ambiance is beautiful. Just fix the bartending issue and you will have a 5 star restaurant.

    This was our first visit to Celeste! It was a recommendation from an RI friend, Cheryl Botwick whose Father in law works there part time. It was a fabulous experience. Hope to return on our next visit to HH
