50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Cranston

“We had the pleasure of getting a reservation last night before our show at the Park Theater. The staff was amazing 10 out of 10 . Our meal was the show stopper. Lobster Risotto hit all the notes! Truly impressed. My husband had the Ribeye and talked about it all night. The owner was lovely. We will travel that way again just to visit this 💎 Gem.“

“Excellent happy hour every day at the bar from 3-6 pm. Buck a shuck oysters! Bartender was super friendly and nice and the Margaritas were delicately balanced and delicious! The beef sliders were delicious! Convenient parking. You just can't go wrong!“

“This place is extremely clean and they make some really tasty pieces. One of them is a stuffed haddock, which is absolutely delicious. Also stuffies. That are also delicious.!! They also sell raw fish pieces that you can cook on your own. I would definitely recommend anyone visiting this business. You will definitely be glad you did!!“

“Their Broiled Scrod is the most delicious I have ever had and the portions are generous! ❤️“

“Excellent food & service. Pho soup was excellent! Beef & shrimp vermicelli was so good! We also had mint spring rolls & they were delicious with such a wonderful peanut sauce. Mango sticky rice was just so perfectly sweet enough & the mango was ripe to perfection. I had strawberry refresher drink & added my own vodka. It's BYOB. My husband had Jasmine tea & the serving display was just beautiful! I would highly recommend this restaurant. Food was amazing, restaurant is so cozy & beautiful and it's located in the heart of wonderful Pawtuxet Village in Cranston RI.“

“Excellent, fresh food and wonderful customer service. My new favorite restaurant.“

“I had the pleasure of visiting Vincent Restaurant in Cranston on their very first day, and I must say, I was impressed by both the ambiance and the food. The restaurant had a welcoming vibe, and to top it off, it was baby Vincent's birthday! They kindly offered us complimentary empanadas to celebrate, which was a thoughtful gesture.

We ordered the chicken empanadas, and while they were good, I found them a bit on the dry side. I personally would have a little more seasoning in the chicken for a bolder flavor, but the accompanying sauce liked helped balance things out. On the other hand, the bread with tomatoes was incredible—absolutely no complaints there!

Given that it was their first day, I expected a few service hiccups, and we did encounter one. My fiancée Hilary ordered the chicken fettuccine Alfredo, but they brought out the shrimp version instead. Fortunately, she didn't mind and enjoyed the dish regardless. I opted for the chicharrón mofongo, and while it was tasty, I felt it could have used a bit more meat and a side of sauce to allow for some extra flavoring if desired. I mentioned this to the waiter, who was quick to address my feedback and provided the sauce on the side.

Overall, it was a great experience in a prime location. I’ll definitely be returning and wish them much success as they continue to grow and improve!

Spanish Review:

I was lucky enough to visit Vincent Restaurant in Cranston the first day they opened, and I must say I was impressed with both the atmosphere and the food. The restaurant had a cozy vibe, and to top it all off, it was little Vincent's birthday! They offered us complimentary empanadas to celebrate, which was a very kind gesture.

We ordered the chicken empanadas, and although they were good, I found them a little dry. In my opinion, the chicken lacked a little more seasoning for a stronger flavor, but the accompanying sauce helped balance the dish. On the other hand, the bread with tomatoes was incredible, absolutely nothing to fault!

As it was their first day, I expected some hiccups in service, and indeed we had them. My fiance Hilary ordered a chicken fettuccine Alfredo, but they brought her the shrimp version. Fortunately, he didn't mind and enjoyed the dish anyway. I opted for the chicharrón mofongo, and although it was tasty, I felt it could have had a little more meat and an additional sauce on the side for more flavor if desired. I mentioned it to the waiter, who quickly fixed my order by bringing the sauce.

Overall, it was a great experience in a privileged location. I will definitely be back and wish you much success as you continue to grow and improve.“

“The place is so beautiful and the staff’s are very friendly. The most is the foods is so delicious. I will recommend to friends and family!“

“This little restaurant, raw bar, bar bar is not messing around. They handle their shellfish perfectly, cold, crazy fresh, and masterfully shucked. I recommend just a dash of the mignonette to just highlight the delicious flavors of the posters. The bartender told me the raw scallops have never left the menu so I ordered them. I can see why they're almost a signature of GH. The bok choy pancake is really good but strangely filling. Plenty for 2.

The cocktails are well mixed.

Highly recommended.“

“We had a wonderful anniversary at Hemenway's recently. We would highly recommend it for the excellent food, service and atmosphere. We'll be back the next time we're in Providence.“

“We sat in the enclosed area. I love that small birds come in and sit next to you. Very nice touch!! The pancake are amazingly fluffy and delicious. I ordered The ultimate breakfast. Sausage and bacon were on point. Crispy bacon and a perfectly cooked hash brown. Came here for my birthday and it was a perfect breakfast to start the day.“

“Had a date night with the wife. Great food and drinks . Great atmosphere 5 stars“

“We discovered this small family restaurant a couple of years ago and it has become one of our favorites! The sea scallops are the best we’ve had anywhere ( so sweet and cooked to perfection). We’ve tried many of the menu options and have never been disappointed.“

“We have been there 3 times-each time was incredible from cocktails to the in-house desserts. 5 ⭐️’s“

“Pickup our food and ate a delicious meal big portions and reasonable prices“

“Myself and My dad went for the first time ever on Thursday May 9th. we are both huge seafood lovers however my mom and my husband are not. So we planned a night out and our number one goal was to look for a great Buck A Shuck with an excellent menu! We found both, my dad saw the Oyster Po Boy and he was sold right there. We arrived shortly after they opened around 3 and took our seats at the bar. I am horrible at remembering names. We ordered a dozen(6 for each) oysters. Shortly after we realized we should have ordered a dozen(6 for each) little necks. I am sorry for the inconvenience of not ordering them at the same time. After eating both the dozen oysters and little necks which was truly fascinating to watch as he just shucked them open with no problem. I ordered the Salmon Burger which was AMAZING and my dad got his Oyster Po Boy. Which he also said was AMAZING. The bartender asked if we saved room for dessert. However we both looked at each other laughed and ordered another dozen (6 for each)oysters as a dessert. All in All the food was great. Everything tasted so fresh they oysters and little necks were so sweet and briney. Fantastic!! Loved the atmosphere and watching all the orders go out and the gentlemen just shuck away at the oysters and little necks. Looking forward to the next time we come!!“

“You got the best fish and chips! Staff was super nice! I tried the oysters and they were amazing also!“

“If you're within an hour of East Greenwich and you're looking for an amazing meal outstanding service in a beautiful restaurant then look no further the Providence oyster Bar in East Greenwich Rhode Island. I just left there a short while ago. Upon pulling in I was greeted by a friendly valet attendant. Walking in I sat right down the servers came over provided menus water all standard you get that in most nice restaurants. Their attentiveness their professionalism their courteousness it's some of the best I've experienced in a very very long time. I've been all over the country I've gone some of the finest restaurants and writing downtown East Greenwich you have a restaurant who service will rival the finest restaurants in New York City. The food is outstanding the seafood across the board is fresh is delicious, nice portions. I give it 11 out of 10 Stars. So if you're within an hour's drive of East Greenwich go out of your way and head to Providence oyster bar in E. G. I'm quite certain you will be very pleased you did.“

“nice atmosphere. fresh raw bar I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS RESTAURANT. SMALL SERVINGS & PRICEY. Current menu not online.. checked several sites and each had a different menu.“

“So it was Fathers Day and of course my fiancé wanted to go golfing and he chose Harbor Lights golf course. We’re from Connecticut but on the border of Rhode Island but still don’t go there as much. After he was done he said he would love if we went to dinner for Father’s Day with our daughter and my mom. I searched for places in the area of the golf course, was looking for something sort of near the water and that’s when I found Iggy’s ! Had great reviews so I called and booked a reservation! We were running a little late but called to let them know and said that it was fine. When we arrived, the place was PACKED! Which is definitely a great sign. Every staff member we encountered were so nice and helpful! Our server Zach was amazing and so accommodating! He was knowledgeable and was just so friendly! My mom is a super critic ( she always has something to say about something which sometimes gets embarrassing ) haha but she could not say enough how good the food was and service and atmosphere! She absolutely loved it and we had the best time! My 13 month old had her first milkshake and LOVED it! Hahah Thank you for the great experience! We’ll definitely be back when we’re in Rhode Island! :)“

“Back in 2018 I was on vacation with my lady friend who is a native of where yall are located which lives in Nashville Tennessee where I am living nowadays myself. Being a retired chef from New Orleans Louisiana and knowing seafood. She bought me here and everything about this place was A-1 and give them 5 🌟.“

“Excelente comida y atención 💯“

“So far ive only had the chicken and fries from here which been about 2 - 3 times But damn the chicken gooodddt! A must have with their sauce (i ask for it on the side along with an extra one) i always come here when i dont feel like cooking or have leftover rice from the day before and dont wanna make any meat to go with it . The chicken is even good by itself and the prices are more than fair .“

“We went over the weekend for the first time since new renovations. The atmosphere was amazing! The music was awesome, and out meals were delicious. Our server Deedra was marvelous and made my mothers Birthday worth the visit. We will be back.“

“We ventured into Providence to Providence for a quiet dinner on a Sunday evening. I'm so glad we chose Ten Prime Seafood. The hostess was charming, the waitstaff was professional, and the food was delicious. We started with the Chicken Nuggets & Caviar, crispy and delicious. The Lobster Tortelloni in pink vodka sauce deserves its own fan club. The sauce is rich without being heavy--creamy, bright, and so flavorful! The swordfish entrée was just as impressive. It was beautifully seasoned and grilled to that ideal point where it's still juicy and tender. We finished off the evening with perfect pairing of Creme Brulé and an Affogato. Ten Prime Seafood is a wonderful addition to the Providence restaurant scene!“

“First time trying the lobster bisque and it was delicious! I’ve had other menu items in the past but the bisque is hands down my favorite! Who says you can’t enjoy seafood in the winter? Great for takeout on a chilly night. The dining in experience here is also very good. I’d reccomend for date nights during the warmer months. 🦞“

“The shrimp, crab legs and lobster tail was delicious 😋.“

“Great food and awesome service.“

“A great spot!! We love the food and drink and the service is the best!!“

“A wonderful experience and the best Italian restaurant in Rhode Island“

“Always fantastic and delicious“

“I absolutely love the food! I always get the large carne asada. Its carne asada, white vegetable rice, salad with piccolo de gallo, carrot and macaroni salad, fried platano and beans. It’s authentic Guatemalan food and I love it.The inside looks a bit janky, but they just opened up. I remember the building itself was a party store than it became a Panda Express and now it’s Xoyita. I usually get take out and eat comfortably at home.“

“Good menu!!! Good drinks! Buen sabor y buen ambiente! Todo es bueno en “El Marinero” .“

“thank you for the complimentary limoncello and for Mathew's birthday dessert. the scallops and risotto were absolutely delicious and that roasted garlic was to die for. very well done. staff was pleasant as well.“

“What can I say? Avenue N is definitely one of the best in the state for farm to table comfort food and cocktails. However they really outdid themselves with, what I would call, the new “it” dinner option- the birrio burger. Every bite has flavor & every bite melts in your mouth. I hope this becomes a weekly special due to its uniqueness. My “pear-suasion” drink complimented it perfectly. As always the staff there is top notch. Definitely make a reservation for an epic experience. PS please change up your dessert menu. We need some new creations.“

“We sat at the bar and our server was a delightful young lady named Ash. (I hope I remembered her name correctly!) She was attentive but not overbearing. She has been my server previously and she's certainly an asset to the team! We shared the pear salad and the Marriott burger and everything was delicious! Highly recommended!“

“Great customer service! Food is fantastic! Refreshing addition to Riverside.“

“Amazing experience as always! Manny and the team were great and super accommodating! We had a larger party of 9, many whom it was their first time experiencing Capital Grille! We celebrated a end of year teaming dinner. The ladies love the experience and I'm sure they will be back again! I come often and it's always a 10/10 experience! Well done, than you!“

“Our server, John, was absolutely top notch, friendly, professional, knowledgeable, timely, attentive, and just a total pro at his job, he represented the restaurant beautifully and if I ran that place, I would be sure to keep him in the public’s service, food was great, view was great, 5 stars.“

“First time in. Monday night special is quite the deal! Food tasted excellent and portions are large. I was able to take home plenty of food and my unfinished bottle of wine. We did feel a bit rushed. Not only to place our order but appetizers and salads were served at the same time to our small table. We were asked multiple times if we were done with courses when we had forks in our hands. Because the food was delicious and very well prepared we’ll give it another try and hope for a better service experience.“

“We had the privilege of dining at Mills on Friday evening. As out-of-state visitors, our experience at this establishment will undoubtedly prompt us to return. From the complimentary valet service to the ambiance and cuisine, the overall experience was exceptional. The culinary offerings were of the highest quality, exceeding any preconceived notions we had. The restaurant also handled my dietary restrictions with the utmost care and sensitivity, allowing me to enjoy the meal without concern for any adverse reactions. I strongly recommend that you visit this restaurant, as you are sure to be thoroughly impressed.“

“The buffet is small but has everything I like. They should totally consider throwing in some brown gravy to go with those chicken fingers! I would recommended this place to both my family and friends.“

“Great service and food was amazing!!!“

“Amazing restaurant! Amazing Staff and amazing food!! I fully recommended it!!“

“Everything I've ever bought was delicious. So far I've had the chicken parm calzone, slices of pepperoni pizza and Greek salad and they were all great. The bread they give on the side of the salads is also delicious ? I don't usually crave salads but when I do, I get them here“

“Food was excellent and our waiter Roberto was very accommodating. Will go back again“

“We ordered chicken and eggplant parm to go tonight and it was fantastic. You can tell everything is made from scratch. We will be back!“

“We visited for an early dinner. Our waiter Jake was outstanding! After a wonderful meal, my husband paid the bill & we were getting ready to leave when the manager came to our table to ask what was wrong & if we were unhappy w/our server.....'No he was fantastic' we said. Oh! he said, because we didn't leave a tip he thought the waiter had messed up.... suffice it to say.... husband had THOUGHT he left the tip when he paid. Apparently he didn't!!! Talk about being embarrassed!! We gave Jake a little extra in his tip. So, next time you're at Davenports, East Prov. ask for Jake... he's awesome & goes beyond his waitstaff duties.“

“Great breakfast great lunch homemade muffins seafood. Great coffee“

“What do I recommend….Absolutely everything ! This is the Italian restaurant experience everyone should have. You’re treated like family. The food is absolutely delicious. Every dish that came to our table looked and tasted like the main ingredient is love. If you are fortunate enough to go when Mama’s stuffed squash flowers are on the specials menu, you better try them. Isabella our waitress was absolutely amazing. This place made me and my family feel like we were regulars. It’s that place. Just go. You’re gonna love it !! 💯❤️“
