“Maria recently made the cake for our wedding down the Cape last month, and WOW did she do an incredible job! Not only was the cake hands down one of the most delicious cakes I have ever eaten in my life (and I have eaten a lot!) it was also absolutely stunning. Throughout the entire process, Maria was wonderful and patient--listening to all our ideas and questions and giving us helpful feedback. I cannot recommend The Illuminated Oven enough for any event you have coming, you will not be disappointed!“
“The chicken parmesan was delicious. It came with a very generous serving of spaghetti and auntie's salad was delicious.The baked Ziti was very good, But next time I would only order if I was Dining in. It cooled off and just wasn't the same.“
“Came here for a business lunch and wow, was it good. I started off with the Clam Chowder which was okay. I'm from Maine so the bar is set high. My lunch was their Chicken Pot Pie and that was really good! An apple crisp for lunch sealed the deal! My colleagues had sandwiches which were slightly on the dry side, but I had no complaints. Our server, Tiana, was simply excellent! I would come back here if in the area.“
“The menu features a wide variety of pizzas, all made with high-quality ingredients. The crust is crisp and flavorful, the sauce is rich, and the toppings are generous and well-distributed. Whether you're a fan of classic pepperoni or prefer something more, you're sure to find a pizza that you'll love.“
“Enjoyed the combination of flavors. Definitely recommend looking at the menu beforehand to familiarize yourself with the ingredients and know your selections. The ambiance in the cushioned seat area and service was also very nice. Highly recommend the toffee pudding.“
“I came out of this place full and satisfied! Had some Saag, and samosas, filled with potatoes and peas along with come cauliflower 65 which is just chicken wings, but vegan! My saag was delicious and my friends enjoyed their chicken tiki masala and biryani, where we all took bites sharing~ the Biryani had kick, a bit spicy, but in my opinion mild~ mango lassi is always a must at Indian restaurant~ we were recommended some warm bread bites, soaked in a type of light sweet soup. We didn't catch the name, but it was a nice end to our already filling food. Server was funny, helpful, and gave us great recommendations, especially to my friends who were new to Indian food. Everything was chill for a Tuesday evening. Slow pace and peaceful. Bathroom was super nice, clean, and had plenty of mirrors space. Informative too because it had posters of their specials for the weekend. I am coming back to try those specials! Their ad placements helped“
“We popped in here for an app and drink prior to another reservation, and never wanted to leave! Michael at the bar was so wonderful -- he was kind, knowledgable, and had the perfect service timing. The restaurant seemed great, but Michael is what took it over the top. Thanks for your service, Mike!!!“
“Has the world become so desperate that you pay $10 for 2 glasses of small lemonade and you only get a 1/2 a cup? Home sick I sent somebody to pick up my order. When I called garden grill and asked why I only had a 1/2 a cup of lemonade they said because they didn't put in ice. I can understand maybe a little bit but a half of a cup!!!! Soo disappointed. For $10 I could have had a whole jug from Whole Foods of organic lemonade.“
“We had a great experience at Lim's! The service was fast and friendly, the restaurant was very clean and well maintained. The sushi/sashimi was very fresh and perfectly prepared by true professionals as we sat and watched at the bar. We will definitely be back soon when the sushi craving hits! The apps were also excellent, (fresh, steamed pork dumplings, and cold, tasty seaweed salad) and the hot sake was a pleasant and smooth compliment to our meal. Glad we stopped in after hearing from a friend how good the sushi was. We were not disappointed!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“
“I recently had the pleasure of visiting this charming cafe and restaurant located in downtown, conveniently situated across from the theater. The coffee and drinks were top-notch, and the macarons and pastries were exceptionally well-made, providing a delightful treat for the taste buds. The food menu featured simple yet delicious options, perfect for a quick bite or a leisurely meal. The interior design had a lovely aesthetic, enhancing the overall dining experience. Whether you're stopping by for a coffee, a snack, or a meal, this place offers a wonderful ambiance and tasty offerings that are sure to satisfy.“
“I've tried a few different meals here and some I would recommend, others I wouldn't. The pizza and subs are really good. Never had an issue at all with them and I will continue to order them! The BBQ isn't really that good as far as what i like. Brisket should be juicy and slightly pink. What I got on a sandwich here was drier than I prefer. With Chubs right down the street pumping out amazing BBQ, it's hard to compete! Also had an issue where we went in around Halloween just to be told we needed to call first to order because they were too busy, and when I called they told me they weren't taking orders. Just tell your customers that in person, or plan ahead and be able to fulfill orders. Growing pain!“
“My daughter recently went gluten free so we've been searching for gluten free bakery items. This place did not disappoint. The donuts are excellent! I've found most gluten free things taste gross but not this place. You'd never know. A++ we got calzones as well but didn't try yet. Friendly owner as well. Will definitely make the 20 minute drive back!“
“Fantastic! All staff were super friendly and the drinks were phenomenal - I had the RI Iced Tea and Apple Cider Old Fashioned and they were both SMOOTH with great flavor! Probably the best Old Fashioned I've ever had. The space was also really inviting and cozy. I'll be back soon!“
“I want to love this place because it seems like a great place, but I've had two disappointing sandwiches in a row. The quality seems pretty good, the value just isn't there and the proportions are way off. My Italian grinder was all bread and not great bread at that. This sandwich was almost $15 after the obligatory 20% tip. I'll probably give this place another shot, I'll stay away from the sandwiches though.“
“Been going here since they opened. They have the best apple pie, banana Cream Pie. Hot handpies are amazing especially corned beef and cabbage. Everyone that works there is so helpful and amazing. I always recommend this place to everyone.“
“Xaco Taco is a gem in Providence’s dining scene! With vibrant flavors and authentic Mexican cuisine, it’s a must-visit spot. The ambiance is lively, perfect for a casual meal with friends or a cozy date night. The menu offers a wide variety of options, from classic tacos to unique specialties, ensuring there’s something for everyone. The service is friendly and attentive, making you feel right at home.Don’t miss out on their delicious margaritas either! A four-star experience that’ll leave you planning your next visit.Warmly,Dennis SchleicherYouTuber and contact creator on Instagram“
“I've recently travelled from England to visit a friend in Rhode Island. She purchased one of your cakes as a welcome cake a cute one with bees on it and also some chocolate chip cookies. The cake was absolutely amazing and is by far the best I have ever tasted. The cookies were great too.“
“I tried awesome sweets at a wedding expo and fell inlove! im not a sweets person at all, but my wedding cake was amazingg! it was both delicious and absolutely beautiful. Sue helped me design it with every detail i had in mind. i would definitely visit again!“
“I’m not vegan or a vegetarian however, this place is AMAZING. Specifically their samosas. Idk what it is but there so freaking delicious. Their Singapore noodle with soy protein not tofu is sooooooo good too. And these are some of the best sweet potato fries I’ve ever had.“
“I have been going here since I moved to RI and literally cannot imagine this state without it. Everything is good, absolutely everything. The pastries, coffee, drinks, smoothies, tea, atmosphere, service. Just delicious and a great place to visit. Please try the cornbread lol. And the carrot cupcake. Ughhhhhh I’m hungry now.“
“I recently catered from Boston Pita and my team and I were truly impressed with the great food and their service. Everyone was happy and is looking forward to our next catering from them. I recommend using them for your next event or even if you are looking for something delicious to eat!“
“Rhody Roots is phenomenal. The atmosphere is inviting, the staff is always friendly and attentive, and the food is simply exceptional. Each dish is made with fresh, locally-sourced ingredients. I highly recommend Rhody Roots to anyone looking for a memorable dining experience in Warren.“
“My husband and I had dinner last night and it was a great experience from start to finish. Restaurant is very modern and eclectic stylistically. Staff was friendly and knowledgeable. Menu has something for everyone. We had the short rib ramen and a burger 10/10. Plate presentation out of this world. The attention to detail was noticeable from the straws, to the glassware, to the menus!!! Can’t wait to go back.Dietary restrictions: Menu offers a wide variety of options for all diners. Almost anything on the menu can be made GF and they offer vegetarian choices as well as options for diners who want a healthier meal.“
“Really loved this place. Great service & the coffees were extremely delicious. Friendly people working & they hang up art from local artist. Did not get any pictures of that but I will be back to try their other latte flavors and vegan pastries. Very cute decor inside as well!“
“The macarons here are the best I’ve ever had in the States. The shop is cute and the folks that work there are nice and helpful. They offer more than just macarons- the cakes, brownies, sweet treats, ice cream etc are all delicious!!! My friends and I come here for every single birthday, wedding, anniversary etc. love it!“
“Boy, what could I say? The Lemon Cake is bomb here . Nice powder sugar on top with a sweet lemon tang taste. The chocolate muffin cake thingies are good too lol. This was our first time at the Seven Stars Bakery. I was impressed with all of the good sweets here. My fiance will be mad at us, she didn't get to come on my business trip. She love bakery type places. Great staff and owners here. I cant wait to come back again.“
“Found through another Mom friend hosting graduation party. Cupcakes/cakes taste as good as they look. Owner is very friendly, easy to work with, creative, and offers suggestions but ultimately lets you decide what works for you and your event. Our guests raved about the cupcakes and cakes, including friends who seek out the BEST. Many asked where we got them.“
“I've been wanting to try this new spot since it opened but I'm never going by when it is open so I was very excited to finally be able to stop in. I have ordered the cookies from Munroe and they were delicious so I knew this would be a great spot! The Cinnamon Mocha Latte was amazinggggg. One of the best coffee's I've ever had and I'm a coffeeholic. Also got a choc chip cookie sandwich. YUM! The lady working was the absolute sweetest (not sure if she is the owner) but she went over their food & drink menu and was super helpful! This location also carries many local items for sale. I will absolutely be back!“
“WOW!!! JUST WOW!!!! This bakery was on my list of places to go. My daughter is gluten and dairy-free. She just got out of the hospital and a friend surprised us with a couple of zeppole and a cookie. My daughter LOVES THEM!!! I personally am not gluten or dairy-free and I took the obligatory bite. OMG, they are delicious!“
“This place is a massive YES!!! Everything is vegan!! Extremely tasty and quick to order.From fabulous coffees, baked goods, prepared meals, restaurant table service option, and vegan food bowls! Also there is a market with a good variety of vegan food also!A combinations of different options to fit your need!Outdoor and indoor seating area, heaps of places to work on the laptop with plugs for charging, and plenty of parking out the front and in the street!Loved it so much, that I came back 3 times in a space of one week work trip! A very strong yes! Will be coming back!Vegetarian options: Heaps of optionsDietary restrictions: Heaps of vegan options“
“Super tasty place. Fresh and Healthy and they use REAL fruit. Not powder here. Make sure you give it a try. All of the other Acai places are using powder. Not real fruit. That's why it's so purple when you buy it. This place is using real ingredients. You can taste and feel it. Clean wraps and Affordable Meal Prep too. Love it. Can't wait to get back. Support Local Business. These people are great !“
“When you think of Federal Hill dining, Thai food isn’t generally the type of cuisine that comes to mind. However Thailand Modern Eatery is worth the visit! Its quaint, the menu items (I’ve tried many) are delicious and fresh, the staff is kind and humble, and its BYOB!!!“
“We hired the Sarcastic Sweets food truck for a large client event we were throwing, and it ended up being the cherry on top of a perfect evening! Not only were the desserts a huge hit (the lemon cupcake served "everything" style was my personal fav), but Nina was a delight work with! if you've ever tried hiring food trucks for an event, you are well aware how complicated it can be (if you're lucky to even get a response). Nina was prompt with replies, professional, and gave us great options for the event itself. She may need to consider a name change, because instead of sarcasm we had some of the best customer service I've ever experienced! Clients and business partners of ours were raving about the food and how warm and friendly the service was. Nina, thank you for making our event extra special!“
“We had Luigis cater a birthday party event at the Carousel in Roger Williams Park. They were absolutely fantastic. The 2 servers took care of literally everything. Thank you Jaime and Francesca! Food was delicious, service was beyond expectation. Everyone was delighted. I highly recommend them for catering.“
“Stopped in for the first time after driving past the building and feeling intrigued. Elias the bartender provided excellent service and Lindsey was very helpful with suggestions. To start, the ambiance was moody with dim lighting, eclectic multi-colored arm chairs in a lounge area for cocktails, industrial accents and amazing lighting. The space visually stimulating. I started off with the Banana Maple Old Fashioned and finished with the Spicy Mezcal cocktails, both were crafted, freshly made and garnished beautifully (they were amazing). For an appetizer I selected from the table share, Bacon Burnt Ends with a side of Mac & cheese (cooked to perfection) and was delicious. For my entree I chose the Chicken & Waffles and was so delicious and aromatic with a sweet scent. For dessert, I decided to go savory and wanted to try the pretzels which are freshly made. Everything I tried here was the food experience I was hoping for fresh, quality, crafted. This was a 5-star experience with carefully curated menu offering a variety of dishes for all flavor palates. I enjoy restaurants that offer something unique compared to other local restaurants and Boundary really impressed me. I will definitely go back. Service was friendly, engaging and provided an overall exceptional first time here. Parking is available for free in two lots on site next to restaurant. Overall, phenomenal taste in everything I tried.“
“It’s just all around amazing. The food is fantastic and the service kicks-ass. Madison, Ashley and Alex on the bar are phenomenal. My husband is a member of the Mug Club too! The Gold Digger pizza is literally one of my favorite pizzas of all time. The Goodfellas sandwich and eggplant rollatini are awesome too. Just go cuz if not, you’re missing out!“
“Every aspect of our dining experience was superb. Every staff member we encountered was enthusiastic and attentive. Every meal, appetizer and beverage we ordered was absolutely delicious. Menu pricing was surprisingly less expensive than expected for the level of quality and service we enjoyed. Can't wait to go back. Top notch.“
“What an absolute hidden gem. I've lived nearby for years and just stopped in today. Dyane and her husband were very helpful. The shop has lots of small trinkets that you didn't even know you needed! I will certainly be back for all of my eccentric cake baking needs“
“These folks HUSTLE! Great portions, experienced staff, & yummy food. Try the potato cakes-delicious! The 10 year old granddaughter of the owner was working hard. She was amazingly polite and super helpful! Thank you for a great start to our morning.“
“Good little pizza place on Federal Hill ! I always come here for the two slice of pizzas with a can of soda $7 or a beer or wine for $10 then next door they have a bar call Jake’s and Johnnys with a full bar and food plus nightly entertainment till 1am and they have cheap drink prices it’s a very fun place to go especially for the locals“
“Cozy atmosphere and friendly, helpful staff. No indoor seating, but there is outdoor seating with a beautiful view! I got an iced caramel latte with a cookie, both items absolutely delicious. :)Dietary restrictions: They have alternative milk options, and even informed me that their caramel has dairy in it! Love how informative the staff is! :)Parking: There's a lot of parking room available. :)“
“Excellent little crepe and waffle place. They delve into flavors of wonderfully mixed intensity. My wife got the Corner Waffle, which was dense and jam-packed with flavors. The flavors were softened with a wonderful vanilla cream.I ordered the fruit bowl as well as the parfait. I wanted to mix the two and was glad I did. My wife ended up taking my bananas for her waffle as she didn't want the flavor to end.I ordered a large coffee that was unusually rich, creamy, and lightly foamy. My wife got the Cafe Au Lait that she thoroughly enjoyed.Besides the traditional cute tables, we opted for the sofa corner.Such a bright and airy café. You can also sit at the bench seats and feel like your watching the city walkers stroll by.Google also took us via the waterside street which popped us right next to the café.We really enjoyed this place and will be back again#RockFromRI“
“We had a really good time at this place. Our son has lots of allergies and the staff made a special - and delicious - allergens-free pizza for him. Good vibes, nice playlist, awesome pizza ovens. Very kind service. Tight place to park but it is a good incentive to actually not come with a car and use instead bike/public transportation. Will go back.“
“My youngest son can’t eat dairy so we thought family pizza nights would be over. Pizza pier has a build your own pizza and they have vegan cheese. We get the individual pizza for him, and another for the rest of us. We have tried 4-5 different kinds of pizza and they are all delicious. Highly recommend.“
“This is a no frills, limited seating restaurant. What it lacks in ambiance, it makes up for with a nicely portioned, tasty meal. The only negative I can truly speak of is the lack of intimacy of the seating, as there are no booths only small tables set rather closely together. If that isn't an issue for you then this may be a good spot to check out.“
“Love the food there and the staff is so friendly. I love how you can stop in any time and get a healthy meal ready to go portioned out and with healthy snacks available too! I don't like to cook once a week and this is my go to for dinner!“
