“My wife and I discovered the Hungry Haven a few weeks ago. We’ve been back four times and haven’t been disappointed yet. The food is great service is great good portions quaint atmosphere, if your hungry and in the area, Hungry Haven is the place.”

“We've never been to the Rathskellar (and we are RI'er's) until this summer. We love it!! Everything about it. The service, the food is amazing!! The drinks! The bands out back. The place itself is awesome! We have tickets to so many bands until October. So excited!”

“Went yesterday for a late lunch with a friend. The lobster rolls, chowder and lobster Rangoon were out of this world! Love this place!!!!!”

“This is such a special place. I live closeby year round and have watched them grow. The food is so delicious and fresh. I see them working so hard every time I’m there. I highly recommend!”

“Fantastic coffee and tea. Great spot! All the drinks are level and horizontal to the flat earth.”

“I drive 3hrs to eat here with my mom and dogs. Best Seafood Ever”

“Food was great, I had the short rib bolognese, it could feed more than 1!! Service was great, and met a few nice people who recommended that ice cream cookie!! Great experience!”

“Had an errand to run in NK and happened to find this place. Glad I did because it was really good and the employees were nice. Got the iced raspberry latte special and a potato + egg wrap and loved it!”

“THE pizza place to check out in the State of RI. Some say a hidden gem and I would have to agree. The quality of the pizza is consistently good on top of exceptional customer service. I’ve known the owner for years but can say this is coming from an unbiased perspective. A few friends visit because they say the recipe has been untouched since their childhood. A great place that honors the past by providing wonderful pizza.

“very friendly owners and hang-abouts 🤣 yummy fruity and sweet granola acai treat”

“I’ve been coming here for a while, and it is definitely one of the best pizzas spots i’ve ever been to. Their dough and sauce is so unique and the location is perfect for the locals. Their staff makes the pick-up experience even better. The young lady and gentleman who keep that store alive are the some of the nicest/ attentive workers i’ve interacted with and that’s hard to find these days! 10/10 recommend K&S!!”

“Very creamy and good seafood, especially with the chowder.

Great location being near piers for a nice coastline feel.

They even let you play cornhole while you wait for food”

“One of the best stores I have been to , I just walk by the window and the girls see me and have my iced coffee all ready for me .. awesomeness”

“I have lived in Charlestown for over 35 years. This used to be a good place to order food but not lately. I have had numerous bad experiences lately. Tonight I placed an order for 2 hamburgers and a Philly steak for delivery. The order was placed at 5, I was told it would be 45 minutes. The driver showed up at 7. The food is cold, the French fries are soggy, the lettuce is black and wilted. This is my last orderfor them and I live a half mile away.”

“Whether you're at URI for the school year or a local here in South Kingstown, you need to know Big Mamma. The nicest, sweetest woman who makes sure your food is made with love. Food is always outstanding no matter what you choose. The service always comes with kind words and a big smile. As a local who has known mamma for years, as long as rhode house is open I'll be a loyal customer.”

“You will never find better authentic Chinese cuisine anywhere on the east coast!! I love this restaurant, it is my favorite place to eat hands down.”

“We ordered 5 different tacos and burritos as a sampler plate this weekend for guests; not only was each delicious, but the seasoning and other fresh ingredients in each taco and burrito complemented the main ingredient (fish, shrimp, chicken, pork or beef). NOT a place where every taco and burrito gets tossed together with the same ingredients and seasonings. Bonus: the take out containers are 100% recyclable . Kudos to the owners of this gem of a restaurant. I hope you thrive and expand!”

“Had my birthday lunch Aug 2nd, absolutely over the top! Seafood tower was great! Whole belly clams and steamers! Great service! My wife and daughter loved it as well! Nice atmosphere as well.”

“Absolutely outstanding from the moment we walked in by the people greeted us, sat us down and provided us with a scrumptious meal. I would drive back five hours just for this breakfast.”

“First time here today and I must say it was absolutely delicious. So much flavor… and the bean spicy sauce was on point. Definitely a MUST TRY😋”

“Met an old friend for lunch, had a wonderful experience! Cozy window table, Shared an amazing cinnamon roll, and had delicious sandwiches. And great iced coffee! Definitely recommend!”

“Five stars for the delicious treats, beautiful breakfast croissants, and flavorful coffee. Five stars for the peaceful outside dining area, and the warm and inviting cafe on the inside. Five stars for the staff who is always so gracious and lovely, minus the one time I was taken aback by the disrespect and unprofessionalism of one of the members. I hope that due to the poor choice of this staff member, that the members’misbehavior doesn’t reflect upon the teams’ sweet and wholesome image.”

“This bakery has the most delicious desserts! Thanksgiving we ordered pecan pie that was scrumptious! Christmas we ordered ginger bread cheese cake that was both decadent and decorative. I would give this vegan bakery a 10 ⭐️ star rating.”

“Just wanted to take a moment to compliment the service we received from Amanda! It was pretty busy, the restaurant was at capacity, and she was fantastic! I appreciate a server who does a great job, and she handled our table with a perfect display of relaxed competence. Well done!”

“Addicted to their smoked bluefish dip - have ordered 2 servings to go as my dinner before if that tells you something 😅
everything else is phenomenal as well. One of my local favorites since they opened!! Beautiful interior and design.

edit: Their Chicken Milanese is perhaps my new favorite ?!?!”

“Fantastic Japanese food, unpretentious, delicious, and a real hidden gem. We've gotten take out many times, but the best experience is to eat in.

Flavors are on point, and the menu is varied enough to appeal to vegetarians and not. In addition to excellent food, they serve beer and sake to go with your meal. This is a restaurant that you should visit.”

“I have been dining at Wood River Golf for over 10 years maybe even closer to 20 they have had their ups and downs especially during "C". Dinner this past Saturday night was fabulous. Their chicken parmesan is still the best around. I can say with confidence I have never had a bad meal there. Prime rib Saturday was cooked to perfection. I highly recommend! I know everyone has been struggling to find good help but thank the Lord they have a strong family support system and a wonderful bartender who has always been loyal.”

“Wonderful food, casual atmosphere and excellent service.”

“If you’re planning an event or feeling particularly festive and just want to treat yourself (no judgements here), I highly suggest The Gathering Table! They provided the most BEAUTIFUL charcuterie that was well loved at the Mayo Wedding. We’ve used a lot of charcuterie catering around town, but this one was ~the big cheese~ 🧀.”
