“Amazing drinks and beautiful moody vibe“

“What a great restaurant. The onion soup is world-class, as was the Steak Frites. Great drink selection. We had the Grenache red wine and were very impressed. The warm bread and olives is a must order and outstanding value. Can't say enough good things about our meal and experience at Le Central.“

“Great food & drinks“

“Pizza cold and undercooked. Meals arrived different times.“

“Always a great experience at The Lobster Pot!“

“Went to the Foxes Hill neighborhood in Providence to try out a Morroccan spot, but it ended up being closed. Luckily, right around the corner was Aguardente, which is a Guatamalen & Portuguese tapas restaurant. Love the interior decorations and warm welcoming vibe. We started with quejo de cabra, rellenitos, & the minha caiparinha. Then we had the batatas fritas, empanadas de pollos, polvo grelhado, & almondegas. Everything from the service to all of the dishes being seasoned perfectly and tasted amazing.“

“Absolutely awesome! Great food, great people and great events. Check it out, you won't be disappointed!“

“Great service, ambiance, and sushi.“

“Celebrated a birthday last evening at Viola Cucina with a party of 12. EXCEPTIONAL! Small venue but comfortably accommodated us all. Fabulous food, drinks, and service. We all left very happy! Bravo!“

“Believe it or not, I'd never tried Indian food until recently. I'm usually not one for spicy stuff, but this place was so close to home, and I was feeling adventurous, so I figured, why not? And let me tell you, I was genuinely blown away by what I ordered! My girlfriend, who knows her Indian food, totally nailed the recommendation. It was this amazing chicken dish with a creamy, orange sauce, and some perfectly buttered naan on the side. I can't remember the exact name, but I sure won't forget that taste! I'm definitely going back to try more of their menu.“

“Best chicken tortilla soup around. I haven't had something I didn't like. Great spot. Congratulations“

“Cheryl and I dined with friends last night at Casa Azul Taqueria at 840 Allens Avenue in Providence. Although the place is small, with just three tables and primarily offering takeout, the food is fantastic, featuring great vegan options. We're definitely going back!“

“Truly an incredible place with even more lovely people. Places like this are what keep our city wholesome. And of course they have tasty yums and bevs“

“We never made it to the old location but we have been going for date nights now for about a year. The food is phenomenal, the atmosphere is perfect! The music is always on pointe! And we have our favorite waiter, Phil, every time we go! He is as much the reason we go there as the restaurant itself! Great guy!“

“I cannot express how much I enjoyed/appreciated working with the Primo Catering team for my wedding. The food was absolutely delicious, the team was friendly/attentive, and they were so incredibly accommodating. Beyond that, Shannon went above and beyond for us in every single way. They had a beautiful candle lit dinner for our tasting and had solutions for every problem we encountered when planning our wedding. I cannot recommend them enough. Thank you Primo’s team for being such a key part of our big day! 🤍“

“Delicious food, great service and I highly recommend.“

“Everything we had to eat was incredible! The drinks were also phenomenal! and the service was impeccable! Looking forward to going back and trying more of their menu“

“We dined here last night and had the most amazing experience! Bethany was an incredible server- knowledgeable about the menu, friendly, and ever attentive. The host working around 9pm was not welcoming or friendly, and also sat us at the smallest table in the restaurant. Bethany offered us a larger table, and was always checking in on us. We had the grilled octopus and shrimp Mozambique rangoon-both were incredible!“

“galactic theater is the best music venue in New England. Dave and his team of human beings keep a fun vibe, great music and interesting line-ups almost every night of the week. I'll be performing here on Fri Feb 6 with my associate, Jake Perry. I highly recommend coming to this location regardless of which night it is. you'll always find something worth checking out!“

“Stuffed mushrooms are amazing, and cocktails were on-point.“

“We just came by boat with two little kids not realizing the new fall hours. The employee working saw them peaking into the window and was so kind bringing them each out doughboy donuts. It was such a generous and thoughtful gesture that truly made these two little kids day! We look forward to coming again in the spring (during hours your open)“

“Great food. The owners are very welcoming. Will definitely be back !!“

“Absolutely love the outdoor dining and red sangria! Always a great time when we go!“

“Stopped in to this little gem, food & drink excellent & Katie at the bar was wonderful!“

“love the food and drinks they were AMAZING ❤️❤️💯“

“We had a great birthday experience aboard the train & plan on returning many times. We chose The Spruce Car, (as opposed to the murder mystery) which is aptly named, as it's filled with rich, warm woods. The cozy lighting & up-scale, but not pretentious, decor created the perfect ambiance for a romantic birthday. Dinner service was nothing short of wonderful. Our server, Maddie, was friendly, beautiful, and attentive. Both of our dinners were delicious and the cocktails were perfect. More locals should enjoy the Bellevue Grand. It's worth every penny.“

“seafood is always Fresh
The batter on the fish and chips It’s A light breadcrumb coating I like that because it doesn’t make you feel greasy when you’re done eating .
The bake cod is my favorite it just flake’s apart just like it should when cooked perfectly…
Love the homemade Stuffed Hogs ..
The scallops are big and juicy their sweetness is addicting..
Love to read other reviews I think it’s important to see if there’s someone who constantly complains Or if their fair on their reviews, it’s always very interesting to see their history..“

“My go-to order in most places would be a Reuben. The quality of the meat, bread and the balance with the sauerkraut, sauce & cheese say a lot about how the restaurant approaches their food. The 02878 is the best Reuben sandwich I have ever had the pleasure of eating. Now I will have to find another go-to for other restaurants because they will pale in comparison to Localz 02878.“

“The best chile relleno! vegetarian options! excellent margaritas! this was a wonderful dinner and experience. friendly service and excellent food. like walking into a friends home and being served the best food from grandma.. <3we went upstairs after for some music and will be back for brunch. thanks for a wonderful evening.“

“Huge thank you to Jared and the entire Pine House team for letting us take over your beautiful space for a baby shower. Our vision came together perfectly thanks to your stunning venue, amazing food, and the kindest, most attentive staff. Pine House Kitchen & Bar is already a favorite for lunch and dinner and now l'll be telling everyone it's the perfect place to host their next celebration!“

“We were here visiting and found this little place outside Newport and it was amazing! We had two lobsters and steamers the servers were great. It's very laid-back fun atmosphere.!! Definitely five stars!!“

“Pricilla was the absolute best ! It was our first time here , she made some recommendations and didn’t disappoint what so ever food was on point from presentation to taste ! Atmosphere was relaxing with good music and good food makes the best time and money well spent“

“Great experience as always. The staff is so friendly and welcoming! Highly recommend“

“Great food, nice bar 🙂👍“

“Good music and wonderful staff ❤️“

“It's a good place to watch the game! They do have good bands, loved heavy rescue and what matters. Fun going when bands are there it's fun but it's a small dance floor and people bring drinks on the floor spilling them and show off swinging around instead of dancing in place. So dancers be ware!
Food is good and the pizza would be excellent except they don't take the time to equally distribute sauce and toppings so half our pizza was naked with just a light brushing of sauce. Fix this issue and the pizza is definitely worth trying!“
