“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.”

“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.”

“I am a Sushi fanatic. Sumo Sushi and the brilliance of Steve Lee makes this The Best of the Best in my opinion. Hard to go any where else as Steve sets the standard. Outstanding.”

“The coffeehouse is an amazing place to hang out on campus or just in general. Awesome people, great music, awesome atmosphere, everything about it is just amazing! Why are it even reading this anymore? Go to the coffeehouse!!!”

“Insomnia is that one place that feels like a better clone of someone's else's product (Crumbl). I ordered one chocolate chip cookie (3.12 was the total) and it was really good for the price, it felt and tasted like a McDonald's cookie if it was baked with high quality ingredients. Much better than Crumbl's cookies for sure.”

“Buff Chix Pizza is really good and always my go to! The regular cheese is just okay (a little bit oily and fishy? for my taste). Mozzerlla sticks are to die for! Would def reccommend this place!”

“DoorDashed buffalo chicken calzone from here! All I can say is WORD! So delicious! The calzone crust is incredibly soft and crunchy! Get yourself extra blue Cheese dressing and a stick or three of celery, this is medium to almost spicy, perfect balance!
Unfortunately when I called to compliment on the food, the gentleman who answered was unable to understand what I was saying, (language barrier). Nevertheless I will be recommending and ordering again. Thank you!”

“Ram’s Den is my favorite dining hall! I love the burgers and fries there! The people are really nice. The bookstore is addicting and you don’t have to wait long in line to get your mail from the mailroom. Plus, it’s a great place to study, especially at night time when you don’t feel like walking all the way to the library.”

“I've been a customer since 1984! No pizza or grinder haven't compared to the great food I've enjoyed at Kingston Pizza! I've lived in 5 states and the pizza, hogies, po-boys, etc I've had in other states weren't as delicious as Kingston Pizza! It's been a while since my last visit, so next time I'm in the neighborhood, I'll stop by!”

“Great sandwiches, really great bagels and a damn fine cup of coffee. Would certainly recommend, staff was friendly and service on point! Will definitely be back!”

“Sometimes the food is not where I like it but not bad. Amazing Manager named Josh. Very Proactive and Helpful.

Wheelchair accessibility: Entrance Parallel to the road and two doors opening in opposite directions. Very Accessible.”

“I have always loved going to this Subway because of how amazing all the staff are to me. Also the food is top quality, and I always receive great portions. The owner and the rest of the staff are always welcoming and initiate great conversations too. I will continue to dine at this Subway and will recommend it to everyone.”

Thank to the owner and staff. Happy Holidays.”

“Our second stop on our Saturday Taco crawl took us to Maiz. The shop was decked out for the Halloween season. Inside the place reminds you of a Mexican cantina. Brightly colored flags adorning the ceiling contrasted the sand colored wall. Our server was very nice, letting us know what our options were for the fight. I chose to upgrade mine to pastor tacos as they are my favorite type. My friends got a Birria taco, a shrimp taco and the carnitas taco. It didn't take long before our food arrived. Fresh and hot, we quickly dived in. The pastor was flavorful, a slight char taste that made the whole thing sing a symphony for my taste buds. The shrimp taco was particularly good as well. The shrimp was succulent and the addition of the pineapple took it to the next level. The Birria meat was tender and juicy. The carnitas was a solid choice as well. Their homemade hot sauce, mild or spicy, on the side. All washed down with ice cold Mexican coke. Another taco spot in the books as a place to return. We only live 9 minutes away so it's a sure thing for us!”

“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!”

“Great local sandwich shop. The service in the atmosphere were great and was above expected.

Food was very delicious and good would go back again if I was in the area. Unfortunately, they were all out of the brownies.”

“Awesome atmosphere and great service! Really fun and unique. Food and drinks are so good!”

“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.”

“I had the Ron Swanson this weekend and it was absolutely delicious wish I had pics but I didn’t think to do that! My wife had a pepperoni lovers pizza and that was also fantastic. The table next to us had a half general tsos half chicken bacon ranch we worked out a trade and they were both excellent highly recommended”

“Friendly, great food, fair prices!”
