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

“What a wonderful meal and atmosphere!!!“

“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.“

“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 :-)“

“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!“

“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.“

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

“This was our first time dining at Mona Lisa, and def will return. It has a hip vibe upon entry, with some pulsing beats in the background. Our party of 6 includes hard of hearing friends, so this was a little bit of a challenge, but there was good energy in the dining room. Service was very attentive and the menu is eclectic. It is mostly Italian, with additional flair from Puerto Rico and Sushi. I am keto and a friend has a gluten allergy — not a problem. The kitchen accommodated us beautifully. My salmon with secret sauce was delish. The portions are very generous (you might have lunch for tomorrow). There were at least two birthday celebrations that night. Fun place to celebrate. Thanks for a great dinner!“

“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.“

“This is one of the nicest restaurants in the area. The grounds are pleasant with lots of parking. The food is always outstanding. The service is excellent. Every time we have gone the owner is there overseeing things are going smooth. They have fantastic specials. Just an overall wonderful experience.“

“The food was incredible the service was great it's BYOB was our 1st time we will come back“

“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. “

“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.“

“beautiful bright red fresh sauce, everything on the menu is incredible, and it's right in scituate!!“

“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“

“Gia Ristorante Italiano Hubby & I had an amazing dinner last night at Gia's in Uxbridge! It was a last minute decision to go there, but so glad we did. It was a quiet night, cold outside, but inside they had a beautiful fire roaring, smelled so good. We both had amazing meals, waitress was very helpful, answering all our questions. They even made a few changes to a dish so my husband got exactly what he wanted. We will definitely be going there again soon! Highly recommend them for a nice Italian dinner 😋“

“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! ???“

“No one makes a better chicken picatta. The atmosphere is family oriented, the waitstaff is attentive and works together to take care of the guests.

Kid-friendliness: Bring the little ones, it's a great place for families“

“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 !! 💯❤️“

“We had dinner here this past Friday and it was outstanding! It had been sometime since we had dined here and it looks very nice inside being updated. Bread and oil were delicious, as was the chicken parm and chicken francaise dinners. Service was quick and the waitstaff were very pleasant and very efficient. We will be back soon!“

“Best Italian ?? Family STYLE in the state of RHODE ISLAND.The LANCELLOTTA'S DO IT RIGHT. ?. Everything is just wonderful as it was prior to the pandemic's height.

Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair access for downstairs is the only downfall.“

“I live in NYC and every time I come to the area Pat’s Italian is always my go to. Their Veal Sorrento is to die for I have never ever been so obsessed with anything like I am with their veal. I highly recommend it. Thank you for making the most delicious food, period ??.“

“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!“

“Just hosted a bridal shower at savinis over the weekend and I’m so glad I picked them! Charlene was amazing from start to finish! She knew exactly what we needed to help our event run smoothly and was very attentive throughout the whole day. We did a brunch in the function room upstairs and the vodka sauce pasta is incredible! If you’re thinking of booking savinis I highly recommend it!!“

“We stumbled across this place tonight without realizing it was entirely Vegan. We're not Vegan ourselves, but our daughter is, so we eat a lot of Vegan cuisine. I ordered a zucchini "steak" dish that sounded unique, and my hubby got the country "chicken." Both were extraordinary - the best meal either of us has had since we moved to RI (and we've had some great meals). The food was honestly bursting with flavor, and the quantity was just right. The service was perfect, too, attentive without being intrusive. We debated getting dessert, since the dinner flavor left such a satisfying taste behind, but we couldn't resist the gluten-free chocolate brownie. It came with raspberries on top and a trickle of raspberry sauce, in a combination that was again perfect - crispy edges, a gooey center, sweet and rich but not too much so, with the raspberry flavor offsetting the chocolate in a way I've never tasted in my entire not-particularly-young life. It was so, so good, and to my surprise, it blended well with the dinner flavors. I've been sitting here all evening enjoying the last remnants of the taste, reluctant to go brush my teeth, and I thought I should take a moment to leave a review on the various sites. We will absolutely be return customers, and we can't recommend this restaurant enough!“

“don't order online ... they take your money, never ships the product, and you never hear from them again. I'm about to call a lawyer if I don't get my $24.00 back. much faster service if you drive to RI from Florida to find a store where you can pick it up from a shelf.“

“Fantastic Food and service“

“Great experience and service! Paige served us at the bar- it was her first night and you would have never known it!! I actually lost an envelope with some money in it for my trip and they brought it back to me at the hotel we were staying at next door! So grateful for this- Thank you!“

“I’ve been coming here for sometime now. Love the food , never had a bad meal here at Frank and johns .. service is great also. You must come visit. Thank you for the enjoyable time“

“This has been the go-to place for my family to order out for years! We don’t order as often as we used to but still prefer Park Ave over the other pizza places in the City! We ordered late last night and ended up getting a free pizza! Although it my not seem like a lot, that free pizza was a tremendous surprise! Beyond happy to know Park Ave values and appreciates their customers!“

“This is the perfect place. The food was off the fork. It was incredibly out of this world. It will definitely have you licking your chops. The Music was perfect and The waiter Carl went above and beyond to make sure we were pleased with the food and service. Carl was outstanding and kind. Overall everything was Delightful!!!“

“Please, PLEASE stay open later???? Mangiamo has THE best sandwiches around! Bread is so fresh, crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, the meats and ingredients fresh and TOP-NOTCH! SO filling~! Excellent prices, too. Don't forget to try their pizza strips... the best tasting strips I've had in the state. Desserts are incredible, but sadly,m they're only open until 3 pm... We order at least once a week...“

“Fantastic food. End of story“

“Terrazza RI in Smithfield, RI has done it again! This time they teamed up with Ember To Ash Lounge for a fabulous evening featuring premium cigars from Oliva Cigar Co. and a decadent five-course dinner with wine pairings with a fabulous jazz band for entertainment. We kicked things off with a refreshing lobster & shrimp ceviche, followed by a savory filet crostini and crisp summer salad. Next came the star of the night—pillowy homemade ravioli—before finishing with an impressive mixed grill served in a truly generous portion! A huge thank you to Ariana, Shay, Megan, and the entire team for crafting such a memorable and delicious experience.“

“Great atmosphere and the staff was phenomenal. The owner made rounds to meet her guests. Food is fresh and served on your nana’s plates ( such as cute touch)! Portions are reasonable leaving plenty of room for a cappuccino and a lil something sweet. Such a great find. We will definitely be back!!!“

“I had a surprise party for my husband in the private room and it couldn’t have gone any better! It started out with Andrew, the manager and Maggie who gave me the run down from setting up the room to food and drink suggestions. The excellent service followed with Tasha, our waitress who couldn’t do enough for our large group. Everything came out as ordered and always with a smile. And might I add delicious! Kudos to the chef!! And last but not least the room was decorated just as I wanted with a HUGE thank you to Marcus. I was having a balloon meltdown lol until Marcus stepped in, and took all my worries away with all his patience which I had now run out of. Lol
Sometimes it’s just the small things where people go above and beyond for you, just at the right time, that mean so much. It’s the team effort that really shines thru in this restaurant. That being said, I would highly recommend anyone looking for fine dinning, great service and great food, choose Sienna. They will not disappoint. :)“

“Staff was great, food was delicious!“
