“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.“

“Great service and food was amazing!!!“

“The BEST family style meal we ever have had! And it is ALL YOU CAN EAT!! Way better than Wright's Farm!! They only have the All You Can Eat Family Style Feast on Sundays between 12:00 and 6pm (90 minute limit) in their banquet room next door to the actual store.

You get their famous Chicken Soup.(People buy it by the BUCKET - that's how good it is! They also serve a basket of fresh Italian bread and butter. Then you get meatballs with penne pasta covered in their sauce (so yummy). They do not skimp on the sauce!! Next you get an ice cold garden salad with their own dressing. So good!!! And finally, the chicken that literally falls off the bone! Oh and you get Crispy French Fries, too!

You pay for your drinks separately (we got a pitcher of soda).

We definitely recommend it! And the owner was so nice and hands on. He let us know how he makes some of the food. He was awesome to tallk to. The waitress was very bubbly and cheerful. Always smiling.

After we ate (we did not have seconds that's how much food you get at first setting!), we went next door to the actual store to buy some prepared food to bring home. I LOVE LOVE LOVE their stuffed chicken. The owner makes it himself!!! It has cranberries in the stuffing. Delicious!
In West Warwick, RI.

“Awesome dinner last night food, hospitality and atmosphere were fantastic!“

“Absolutely delectable! Every single thing was perfect from the bread & tasty olive oil, to the main meal. Service was excellent. Atmosphere is comfortable & homey. Perfect from start to finish, nice staff & absolutely delicious. Highly recommend!“

“I can’t believe it took us so long to dine here. This is hands down the best food I’ve had in a very long time. Ambiance 10/10, service 10/10 and food 100/10. The street corn ravioli was out of this world. I also tried the peach & prosciutto bruschetta which was savory & sweet and just sooo good. I kept seeing this Bloody Mary type of cocktail going out so I had to order one. This drink was AMAZING. It was called “Caprese my name” which consisted of vodka, basil, tomato and get this…pasta water! Serve in a martini glass with a little mozzarella ball garnish. The most delicious drink I’ve ever had. This place is amazing and I highly recommend it if you’re in town!!!“

“Now that’s a proper bolognese.

Hard to find any bolognese in South County let alone a superb one.

The spinach pie. God damn.

Shiiii, this food is so good it’s about to alter my Asian genetic code into an Italian one. I’m ok with it.

Go, go now.

Actually, don’t go now. I don’t want to show up and have them be sold out of my favorite dishes 😂“

“I've been ordering from calista pizza for a while now and every time I order from them everything is very good. My favorite is meatballs and I just ordered a pizza with spinach olives and pepperoni and it was phenomenal if I could give them a 10 I would but I give them the top rating“

“The food was great but the service was even better. Our server Julen was amazing. She was helpful in understanding as we had questions about the menu. Most servers we've dealt with at other restaurants feel like we are being a bother if we need something. Jules was not like that and was great to our dog Foxy as he lounged on the patio and ate his meal. 5 stars. we will definitely be back.“

“Delicious eggplant fries and pizza to die for. 😋“

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

“Great atmosphere and fantastic food! large portions too!“

“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!“

“BEST TRIVIA EVER! Every Thursday at 6:00!“

“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.“

“The food was okay, nothing special. We ordered a meal that was "all you can eat". We were each served a dinner plate with a piece of chicken, some French fries and pasta. It was a lot of food. We did not order more as we couldn't finish what was on our original plate already. We asked for a take out container to take home what was left of the pasta on our plates. We were told no that they would rather throw it away. I'm shocked. We did not order more. We simply wanted to take home what we were already eating. I will not support a local restaurant that intentionally throws away food. So I'll spread the word that maybe this may be a restaurant that you don't want to support either.“

“Always a first stop on our way to RI beaches! YumYum... delicious pizza strips... the best Whoopie Pies!“

“Kingston Pizza sits on Boston Neck Road in Narragansett, literally its own small, blue house on the side of the road. Everything else about the place is equally straightforward and literal..
Corrugated metal fronting, chalkboard menus hanging above, a Good Humor ice cream freezer by the door. Drop ceiling with skylights, laminate flooring. Three round stools bolted to the floor at the counter. Behind the counter you can see the deck ovens, stacks of pizza boxes, decorative and some food oriented mascots on the walls. There are booths and tables around the dining area as well as the stools for you to enjoy your dine in choices.
This is a local chain. The Boston Neck Road spot services Bonnet Shores and the surrounding area. As part of the RI FOOD FIGHTS Lord of the Pies event, we went with a Margherita pie.
The pizza came out on a metal tray, about twelve inches across. Firm crust with a golden rim, good color on it. Fresh basil scattered on top, still bright green. Sliced tomatoes visible along with pools of fresh mozzarella. The cheese had proper browning, some spots darker than others where the mozzarella got direct heat.
First bite: crunchy. The crust had real structure to it, snapped when you bit through. This came from a deck oven running hot enough to give the dough some backbone without drying it out.
The tomatoes on top gave a fresh flavor separate from the cooked sauce underneath. Two different tomato experiences. The sauce itself had body, not watery, even coverage across the base. The fresh mozzarella was cooked perfectly, enough browning to develop flavor without getting rubbery.
The basil stayed vibrant because it went on after cooking. Smart move. Keeps the herb flavor bright and aromatic instead of turning it dark and bitter.
New ownership brought in a new, more artisan approach. Fresh dough, fresh vegetables, real attention to technique. You can see it in the finished product. Someone's putting thought into this food.
The interior is basic but clean. Nothing fancy, just functional. You can eat in at the booths and tables or grab takeout. Most people seemed to be doing takeout when we were there.
This is solid neighborhood pizza elevated by better ingredients and better technique. The golden crust delivers. The fresh toppings taste right. Everything works. If you haven't been here since the new owners, it's worth a try.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a great experience with Theressa at Nikolas Pizza! Our varsity team was playing nearby at St. George’s Arena, and she was incredibly friendly, professional, and responsive while taking our order. We placed a very large order, and everything was handled perfectly. The food was delivered exactly at the time we requested, and every item was clearly labeled just as we asked, which was especially important because of food allergies on the team. That level of care and attention really meant a lot to us. We would absolutely call Nikolas Pizza again when we’re in the area and highly recommend them—especially if you’re working with a big group. Excellent service all around!“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 recommend this place!
The atmosphere is so inviting and fun—it set the perfect tone for a girls’ night out with my friend this past Saturday. Our bartender, Janell, was absolutely amazing—friendly, upbeat, and brought so much entertainment to our evening. She truly made the night extra special!

We started with the spinach dip appetizer (delicious!), and were having such a great time that we decided to stay for dinner, too. We split the Pub Burger and the Cajun Chicken Alfredo Pasta—both came out hot, perfectly made, and honestly, we couldn’t decide which we liked more!

The option for outdoor seating was another bonus and really added to the experience. Overall, it was the perfect girls’ night out, and I can’t wait to go back and try more of their menu!“

“Stopped in on a whim. Great pizza and salad at very reasonable prices. Highly recommend.“

“Great place! Cane made us feel very welcome coming into the restaurant and was very accommodating. We enjoyed the whole experience very much. Chuck the bartender made us very comfortable at the bar. Our table in the dining room was very pleasant as well. Brittany took great care of us. David was very good at delivering our food and made sure we had everything we needed. Food was outstanding, perfectly prepared. Highly recommend 1639.“
