“Great food and a great time! The owner spent a lot of time talking with us and sharing stories of the history of the property. A wonderful evening.“

“This was my fifth or sixth time dining in at Fiamma (formerly Midici) since the new owners took over, and once again it was a 10/10 experience. We enjoyed appetizers, entrées, desserts, and cocktails, and every single item was fantastic. Our server, Pam, was attentive and wonderful. The atmosphere is completely different from what it used to be—in the best possible way. I’m very excited to see what Karissa, Kerri, and Tim continue to do with the restaurant and can’t wait to come back.“

“Great food service supported by an excellent staff. Consistently delicious!!“

“Read a lot of great reviews about this place in Providence and decided to go there for a late lunch on Saturday. The place is cosy but a bit small. My friend and I shared a Margherita flat bread and five cheese pasta. Both were delicious and highly recommended. For dessert, we had the pear tart. It was good but not worth it for the price. The service was a bit slow. We were first served the flat bread then the pasta after around 20 minutes which is a bit weird. If we weren’t sharing these dishes, one person would have had to eat before the other. We were also asked to order the dessert while ordering the main dishes because the waiter said that it takes some time to prepare and that’s what we did but we still ended up waiting some time. I would still give this place 5 starts because the food is worth the wait.“

“One of my favorite restaurants I have been going there for 13 years and never once had a bad meal. It’s totally awesome. Pricing is very Fair Awesome Pl., #1 in my book.“

“Classic comfort Italian food.“

“Just moved to Fall River few months back and was looking for some food and Sam's pizza in Fall River is one of the best if not the best food I've tried. Always respectful, on time, and also they offer delivery. I give them a 10/10. If you haven't tried there food yet, get on over there and see what your missing out on.“

“It’s the best pizza you can think of so many different styles and choices nothing like a chicken bacon ranch fresh out the oven 💯“

“Place is ALWAYS Perfect……Best Italian Food You Can Get Around Here“

“The food was delicious mozzarella sticks were fresh and filling the cheese burger sub was delicious fresh and all the food is made to order. The bread is delicious it's soft and the vegetables are cut in small pieces . They sell pizza by the slice and have a sandwich chips and a can of soda deals for lunch the pizza was gone before my client could put it in the table lol. Great lil place to have classic pizza delights“

“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“

“My family tried Steve's tonight for the first time and we will most definitely be returning for more! Absolutely amazing!“

“Dinner was excellent, great job! The family loved all of it.“

“Rhodes Pizza never disappoints! The food is consistently fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want when you’re craving pizza. On my last order, I had a special request for the pepperoni to be cooked extra crispy, and they nailed it—perfectly crisp without being burnt. It’s always a great sign when a place not only listens to special requests but delivers them spot on. Service was friendly, order was ready right on time, and the quality speaks for itself. Highly recommend Rhodes Pizza if you’re looking for a local spot that gets it right every time.“

“Delicious slices available made for a fast and convenient 20 minute break. Great NY style here!“

“My family has been going to the Son’s since my grandfather (Papa Lou) moved across the street over a decade ago. We hosted my daughters 16th birthday party in the upstairs hall and had a wonderful time. Everyone is very welcoming and I just love the popcorn served. It is a great place!“

“First time here and loved it. Everything I saw - I wanted...lol. Enjoyed it. Will be back to try things I did not get too. Yum“

“The food was fresh, hot and delicious! Our server Lu Anne was so friendly and made great suggestions. Have the garlic herb wings!“

“This was my first time eating here. Let me start off by saying I had the best scrod I have ever ordered in a restaurant. When the waitress came to take our order I decided on a grilled chicken sandwich. I did not want the fries so I asked to sub a side salad (which I normally do at any place where I order a sandwich, usually a up charge) she said we don't do that but you can have a potato and vegetable. Who would want that with a sandwich! I declined and ordered the scrod. She then asked what kind of soup I wanted (apparently comes with the meal) or you can have a salad. I can sub a salad instead of soup but not for the fries. ODD! The bill comes and I was charged for a side salad. This waitress never said there was a upcharge, which i found odd. I would have paid it anyway. To bad they don't offer something healthier than fries with their sandwiches. This would not be a place I would rush back to.“

“The best Fresh homemade Fish and Chips around! All in an environmentally friendly box!! Try it“

“We haven’t been to Town Pizza in yrs. My wife and I came back for a visit. We were hoping to see the owner. But we found out from our waitress that he retired and sold to his niece. Well, we wanted a spinach pie. But, they don’t sell them anymore. Ty to our waitress Robin who suggested the calzones. They were delicious!! We had excellent service. Ty again Robin for the great service.“
