The food is always incredible, the bartender is skilled and delightful, the servers are smart and polished, and the manager is a doll who goes out if his way to seat us - whether it’s my husband and I on a date night or our huge family of 8. Love love love!“

“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.“

“Been patronizing Angelo's for years (years & years) - it's my 'Go To' place in Providence for Italian. There are plenty of good Italian Restaurants but Angelo's treats you like family . My favorte server is Thera - always smiling - always friendly - and always flying around the resturant making sure everyone is happy. My recommendation - ask for her :-)“

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

“One of my favorite restaurants on “The Hill”. The dining experience at Massimo is always a 5 star experience. Yesterday afternoon we had Janelle as our server and she was superb- it made it a 5 star PLUS visit. Blood orange Cosmos, eggplant appetizer, chicken parm, pistachio cannoli, tiramisu- all excellent. Highly recommend“

“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.“

“I have numerous food allergies, making going out to eat an anxiety filled experience for me. We found Cassarino's while looking for a safe place to eat while in Providence. I've struggled with finding an Italian restaurant I'm comfortable eating at for years! Our server, Morgan, went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and safe while eating here! I would happily take the 45 minute drive down here to eat again.“

“Our dinner at Iannuccilli’s was absolutely exceptional! The food was perfectly prepared and bursting with flavor. The service was superb—our waitress was attentive, kind, and genuinely personable. Nick Iannuccilli, the owner, took the time to visit our table, offering a warm and sincere welcome with a friendly chat. We highly recommend Iannuccilli’s Restaurant. The King is back! Thank you, Chef Nick!“

“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!“

“Wonderful Anniversary dinner! The server was professional and personable and the food was delicious! Nice atmosphere in the dining room.“

“This restaurant is awesome but if Cosa Nostra had any f****** balls whatsoever they would get a list of all the members of the temple of Satan/Set from facebook and start rounding them up like veal.“

“Great atmosphere! And Christine our server was awesome. Very friendly and helpful. She checked on us consistently- thanks! I only got pics of our appetizers as we were hungry and chowed on our mani courses. Started with a 1930 DAQ, Wawtuhmelon and a Vino Rosso Gaio - all drinks were tasty! We started with the Truffle fries and the Crispy Duck Meatballs- oh my both were great! The flavor in the Duck meatballs was amazing! The sweet chili glaze just hits it out of the park! On to dinner I ordered the Steak Frites - excellent flavor and cooked perfect! Wife ordered the Chicken Picatta - very tasty with a great lemon flavor! Daughter ordered the Pink Vodka - also really flavorful with interesting noodles I had not had before. Thank you for a great experience- we shall be back! Thanks Chef Max!“

“I grew up in RI and now live far away. When I come back home, Christy's is a must stop. ! am fortunate enough to have shopped at liquor stores all across the country and the world. Today I had the pleasure of meeting the owner Deborah. Wonderful conversation, wonderful experience. Had what we were looking for and more. I've been shopping at this liquor store for years and just met her today. There is a reason it's right at the top of my lists as my favorite stores. There is no hometown bias, it's a great store sincerely and anyone looking for a good experience and a business worth supporting should shop here.

“Bellavista Restaurant has such a beautiful and elegant atmosphere. the moment we walked in, we felt welcomed and relaxed. The service was absolutely impeccable, from the owners personally coming to our table to greet us, to the friendly waitress and skilled bartender who made sure everything was perfect. Everyone was kind and attentive, especially our waitress who was so patient with the children and made the experience even more enjoyable.

The food was delicious with generous portions, and every dish was full of flavor. Our favorites were the Chicken Marsala and the Grilled Chicken Alfredo — both were perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. The drinks were also very good and complemented the meal perfectly.

I definitely recommend visiting Bellavista if you’re looking for great food, excellent service, and a warm, elegant dining experience.“

“I'd like to express my deepest gratitude to the staff at Roma for providing my grandfather, Bobo, and his friends - the last remaining Italian immigrants who grew up on the Hill - with a warm and welcoming space to share stories and reminisce about the old days. The kindness and hospitality shown by Roma's staff have turned every visit into a memorable experience. By embracing my grandfather and his friends as regulars, sharing in their coffee and memories, Roma's staff have demonstrated exceptional compassion and understanding. This kindness and acceptance will never be forgotten, and we're grateful for the special place Roma holds in our hearts.“

“Amedeo Restaurant & Lounge in Cranston is truly a hidden gem! From the moment we walked in, we were welcomed with warmth and top-notch service. A big shout-out to Isabella, who was absolutely outstanding—she was running around taking care of multiple tables, yet always kept a smile on her face. She made sure we were well taken care of the entire time, and it was clear she genuinely cares about her guests. Joe was equally fantastic, always ready to lend a hand and keeping a watchful eye to make sure everyone was happy. When Amedeo himself walked in, it was no surprise to see him being his usual professional and kind self, greeting guests and ensuring that the atmosphere was nothing short of perfect. The entire experience was warm, welcoming, and filled with positive energy. If you’re looking for a restaurant with amazing food, friendly staff, and a truly inviting atmosphere, look no further than Amedeo’s. Highly recommend—this place is a must-try! Thank you to Isabella, Joe, and Amedeo for making our night so special.“

“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.“

“This place is absolute garbage. Food in never hot and if you ever walk by the open kitchen you’ll see how disgusting it is! Never again“

“Armando has surpassed expectations in culinary excellence, offering breathtaking squash blossoms, homemade pasta, and his restaurant's signature lasagna and calamari and burratta, an absolute extraordinary experience. So much better than the location on Federal Hill, this establishment provides a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. The owner, Armando, from the original Bacco on Federal Hill, has outdone himself - it is imperative that you support this exceptional restaurant. “

“Been going there at least once a month on Saturdays because there is a waitress named Patty. Been to many restaurants and Patty is the absolute best. Food is very good..not exactly pure Italian, but will make you come back.
The interior is small..I would guess, 15 tables.
Very enjoyable atmosphere and you will not be rushed.“

“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 !! 💯❤️“

“Just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who helped my mom this past Saturday night, if it weren't for everyones quick response I'm not sure if my mom would be home today making a full recovery. It's a blessing she was with my niece and at the right place for something like that to happen. Once she is back to herself and off restrictions I'm sure she will be back for dinner to Thank you all in person!! Very grateful! Thank you again!“

“When I first went there food was great,know some of the meals has changed. I do love the atmosphere though.

“Everything about the place“

“Since Bar Lazio opened, it’s quickly become my favorite spot to unwind, share great conversation, and enjoy incredible food. From the freshest selections to build a custom charcuterie board, to perfectly cooked pizza, pasta, and appetizers made with care, everything here is outstanding. Truly a place you can enjoy any day of the week!“

“Atmosphere is an because most may appreciate a more reserved atmosphere. But clearly there are regulars here and they appreciate and know each other. Food was amazing. Servings were large. The side salad was more like a full salad in other restaurants but at a side price. The pasta and sauce were excellent. Bthrnfreah baked bread was worth waiting for n our server was prompt and checked in enough to show he was there for our needs. We weren't expecting much when we say the outside. But inside is a little bit of Italy!!!“

“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.“

“Trattoria Romana in Johnston now serves Sunday brunch beginning at 10am! Fantastic menu, fantastic service, beautiful restaurant! My bestie and I enjoyed a girl's brunch. Chicken and waffles and Corner Beef Hash and eggs! Very yummy! The fry on the chicken was light yet crispy. The chicken was so tender it fell apart. The menu has all your brunch favorites like blueberry pancakes and Benedicts. There is also a full brunch bar offering Mimosa flights and espresso martini flights! Go check them out before the secret is out and you can't get a reservation!“

“OMG the homemade pasta is amazing! I had ravioli Alfredo with veal, Mario had regular veal parm which the sauce was so yummy and Mom had manicotti which was as close to hers as it could be. The bread is super soft and OMG the deep fried oreos are totally worth it and should be eaten warm. We'll definitely be back for more! ???“

“A wonderful restaurant, we ate at before a show at the Strand a couple of blocks away.. Squash bisque for apps and Chicken Parm and Tagliatelle Bolonese for entrees, all delicious. Laid back atmosphere and great service from our waiter Dennis. Highly recommended!“

“From the soup to the main entree the food was excellent, been 5 or 6 times and every time it was excellent. ***** 5 Stars *****“

“I enjoyed the BEST Italian Grinder that I've ever had in my life... and I've had plenty. All the veggies(the lettuce, onions, tomatoes, banana peppers) followed suit in th freshness. The oil & vinegar dressing was noticeably delicious with its own unique flavor. The meats and cheese literally went from the slicer to the sandwich. I had a "small" which is equivalent to a large elsewhere. VERY reasonable prices! This was the first time here of MANY more times to come in the future. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!“
