Legit Mexican fare. No joke. La Vecina serves up dishes inspired by the roots of real Mexican cooking, and if that doesn’t sound yum! enough…don’t worry, the drinks are just as good.

- SPStephanie Pajak6 days ago5.0La Vecina is my go-to spot in Newport whenever I’m craving tequila, tacos, and queso. The vibe is colorful, fun, and welcoming from the moment you walk in. The food is consistently fresh and absolutely delicious — you truly can’t go wrong ordering anything off the menu. The three-variety dip is a must-order every time (trust me), especially if you’re a queso lover. Service always exceeds expectations — attentive, friendly, and makes the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. I’m always looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommend if you’re in Newport and want great food, great drinks, and great energy.

- KPKari PfeifferDec 29, 20255.0This place was such a great find! We were greeted warmly when coming in and boy did we appreciate that on a rainy day. We decided to sit at the bar and Adrienne made us feel so welcome! She made great food and drink recommendations. We're here in Newport for a few more days and will absolutely be back!
