25 Best Wine Bars near East Providence

“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.“

“My family and I had dinner here and it was just as close as you’re going to get to dining in Italy. The food is imported from Italy and they have an amazing wine menu, all coming from small vineyards in Italy. There’s no other authentic Italian wine bar on federal hill, and it’s perfect for wine tasting and trying all their amazing Italian small plates. They also have a market next door where you can buy the wines and food you ate! Luigi the manager was also excellent and gave great menu recommendations. Will definitely be back it’s truly an underrated spot on the hill.“

“Great food, nice wine selection and amazing staff Local neighborhood treasure“

“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!“

“5 stars across the board! If I could give 10 stars I would!! The food, the atmosphere, Chef Sky, GM Ben, Bar Manager Rachel and the Entire staff is amazing! They go above and beyond! My husband and I go there weekly for some of the most amazing food in Providence and love to see our Gift Horse friends! Highly recommend for anyone looking for the best oysters, fun drinks, beautifully inspired Korean/American cuisine and a lovely atmosphere!“

“Outstanding meal! There were 7 of us for a family gathering (we met in the middle for CT + MA family) and everything about our dinner was exceptional! The food, the wine, the calamari + dip, the bread, the olive oil + balsamic dip were all delicious, but the lobster ravioli and caramel gelato were to die for. Omg! Our server was perfect too. We will be back. Thank you!“

“I held a rehearsal dinner at Maria’s and I cannot say enough how great it was to plan with the help of Chris Spertini. He made the whole evening a success by guiding me with food choices and seating arrangement. Our server was excellent. She was extremely attentive to our guests. This will be my go-to restaurant. If you have not dined at Maria’s you are missing out.“

“Phenomenal meal consisting of escargot, duck and a beautiful veal chop! Service was excellent as well. Loved everything about this place!“

“My favorite place ever. Food is amazing, especially the buffalo chicken dip! The service couldn’t be better, everybody is extremely friendly and remembers our orders off the top of their head, which is so kind. They go above and beyond. Especially Lexi and Christian!“

“Stopped in from out of town with no reservation and they quickly accommodated us with a most amazing dining experience. Daniela was an extraordinary server who while handling a large party was also able to keep check on us without any delays. Having true Italian foods that had such bold tastes made our trip more special. We would highly recommend Trattoria Romana as a must visit when you are in the New England area.“

“Stopped in early for breakfast and cappuccino. Everything was prepared hot and fresh from the breakfast pizza to the leek and potato croissant. Delicious! Armando and his family are amazing and we will be back for lunch, brunch and dinner! Great Spot!“

“It's great to see the Xo Bar open again! It was always one of our top lounges to go to back in the early 2000s! Now its even better with the new hang out lounge area! It's so hard to find a nice place with cozy couches in RI. It has a great set up and friendly service! We will be back!!“

“We went to celebrate my wife's birthday, and honestly, it couldn't have been more perfect.
First off, let me tell you about Jeff, our server. This guy is a rockstar, plain and simple. Not only was he super sharp on all the food and wine, but he was also just incredibly attentive and genuinely friendly. We had our 3-year-old son with us, and Jeff handled it all like a pro – making sure our little guy was happy and comfortable, which meant we could actually relax and enjoy the special occasion. He really went above and beyond to make the night special for all of us.
Then there's Danielle, the dining room manager. Seriously, she's incredible. You could just tell she was running the show flawlessly, making sure everyone was having a fantastic time. She even stopped by our table to chat and wish my wife a happy birthday, and you could feel how much she genuinely cares about her guests. It's clear she sets the tone for the whole place, and it just radiates excellence.
And the food? Oh my goodness. Every single dish was spot on. The steaks were cooked perfectly, the sides were delicious, and the birthday dessert was the ideal sweet ending. The whole atmosphere felt elegant but still totally comfortable, which was great for a family celebration.
If you're looking for an unforgettable meal in Providence, especially for a special event, you absolutely have to go to The Capital Grille. Definitely ask for Jeff to be your server, and you'll see firsthand the amazing job Danielle does running the show. We left feeling completely pampered and can't wait to go back! Huge thanks to Jeff and Danielle for making my wife's birthday so memorable!“

“Great food. Attentive staff. Shareable plates!“

“The food was outstanding! The service was the same. If you are looking for authentic Italian and not your basic Italian cuisine, this is the place.“

“Outstanding Steakhouse Experience I recently had the pleasure of dining at Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse and Wine Bar and it was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the warm ambiance and attentive service set the stage for a memorable evening. It was a very special birthday for me from when we arrived till we left 3 hours later and was absolutely my favorite dining experience ever! The highlight, of course, was the steak—perfectly cooked to order, with a beautiful sear on the outside and melt-in-your-mouth tenderness inside and so much flavor. The selection of cuts was impressive, and the quality of the meat was top-tier. Accompanying the steak, the sides were just as outstanding— my absolute favorite is the creamed spinach, was so good and I would get it again and again… The wine and cocktail list was well-curated, offering great pairings to enhance the meal. We had the best bubbly to start and cheers to my birthday, we had a delicious red wine to go with the steak,and a sweet dessert wine to end the meal. And for dessert, we had the chocolate molten cake, carrot cake, cheesecake and others so amazingly yummy and was the perfect sweet ending. If you’re looking for a top-tier steakhouse experience with impeccable service, a great atmosphere, and food that truly delivers, Fleming’s Prime Steakhouse in is a must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“My wife and I visited this restaurant once again this past Saturday nite. My wife had the stuffed chicken special and was very tasty. I had the chicken cacciatore that was well prepared with mushrooms, red & yellow pepppers and onions. The restaurant seating and ambience leads to a nice evening. Our waitress did an excellent job. Will definitely visit Trattoria Romma in Johnston in the future.“

“Every dish is delicious. I ordered Veal Picatta over Bowties..it was incredible. Their pizzas and Calzones are terrific too. I've never been disappointed with anything on the menu.“

“Great experience. Wonderful food. Great ambience. Lovely staff.“

“First time as was in town from Newport to see Little Jagged Pill at PPAC. Bartender (Tim?) was excellent friendly, knowledgeable on menu and made great handcrafted drinks. Manager (she moved here from NYC) was also excellent. I ordered the pork loin special, one of my friends ordered to porchetta over grits (I was a bit jealous as it was amazing. Overall a great experience.“

“Bacaro is an absolute gem in Providence. Since my first visit 15 years ago to today, the food has remained fantastic and is ALWAYS consistent. The wait staff is extremely kind and attentive. The outdoor seating in the summer is a small slice of peace and those corn dishes. Omg.“

“The food drinks and bartenders were all excellent. Thank you for a wonderful night.“

“We went here for the first time Friday night. Food and drinks were amazing. Wish I could remember our servers name because he was great, made excellent recommendations. We had the frutti di mare with homemade pasta and Bolognase. So good. My pear martini was the best I’ve ever had. Adffogato for dessert. Think this is our new favorite spot. Thanks for a great evening!“

“Best linguini and bottle neck clams in white wine sauce I have ever eaten. Staff were fantastic, food was fabulous, prices were spectacular, and wine was flowing. All around pleasurable experience and would absolutely visit again. Thank you Warwick staff and owner(s)! -back in Minneapolis now…“

“The service was excellent along with the food!“
