One Of The Most Beautiful Restaurants In America, The Clarke Cooke House, Is Right Here In Rhode Island
While a beautiful setting isn’t exactly a requirement for restaurant dining, it certainly doesn’t hurt.

And while we don’t dispute any of those claims, it’s the mouthwatering cuisine that keeps people coming back for more.
