“This is a local favorite that has a family friendly environment. My husband and I sat at the bar, we were greeted with a smile from our server. Our server ensured our place seatings were clean, and took our drink order immediately. The bar was more than half full when we arrived at 8:30p. We were hungry so ordered right away, I was able to get a gluten free chicken parmigiana, and it was delectable. Highly recommended this for lunch or dinner, eat in or take out!!“
“We recently went to Pianta in Providence Rhode Island, one of our favorite plant-based restaurants and a very special gathering place for Missy and I. A huge shout-out to Chef Michelle, you made our night genuinely fulfilling with your exquisite yet simple plant-based goodness. Thank you for the good work you do in our world and for proving that you can eat joyfully and plant-based simultaneously!! You are soooo worth the 90 minute drive to visit with you. We appreciate you! Kate Forest and Missy Doe“

“I recently hosted my sister's baby shower at Maria's Cucina, and it was such an excellent experience! Chris, the owner, scheduled several phone calls with me to ensure we had everything planned to perfection prior to the day, which was especially appreciated as I was planning from out of state. Chris was always kind and professional on our calls, and had great menu recommendations - especially considering our group had unique dietary needs (vegetarian and gluten free). The day of the shower, the staff was also extremely kind, professional, warm, accommodating, and so helpful. The food was delicious (we had an antipast platter and salads to start; our entrees were gluten free carbonara, eggplant parm with pasta, and a chicken parm sandwich with french fries; dessert options were creme brulee (DELICIOUS), tiramisu, lemon cake, and cannolis) , and highly complimented by everyone in attendance. I would host an event here again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much to Chris, and all of the staff!“
“We popped in here for an app and drink prior to another reservation, and never wanted to leave! Michael at the bar was so wonderful -- he was kind, knowledgable, and had the perfect service timing. The restaurant seemed great, but Michael is what took it over the top. Thanks for your service, Mike!!!“
“We had Easter dinner and the food was fabulous. For appetizers my wife had the artichoke franchise and I had the shrimp franchise, both were out of this world. Entree’s included The Veal Saltimbucca, Baked Stuffed Shrimp, again both excellent along with two of the signature cocktails. You have to try the smoked old fashion, incredibly smooth and unique. I have eaten here a number of times and always find the experience rewarding. Will be back!“
“Wish we could give more than 5 stars! My fiancé and I went to Andrew’s for the first time this evening because we received a gift card for Christmas. We were so impressed! Karen behind the bar was helpful, attentive, and friendly. We were introduced to Chef Marvin and told him how much we loved our meals. We will definitely be back!“
“If you haven’t stopped into the Italian Corner, make a point of it! We were only 8 minutes from our hotel but after getting FOUR sandwiches for the 2 of us on Sunday 4/7; I’d drive farther!! This place was featured on Diners, Drive-In’s and Dive’s and I can see why it was recommended for the show. The team that works here is hardworking and incredibly helpful. I’d like to bottle up their kindness and spread it around. Good Job Team!! The owner – a pure delight!! We did eat one there, as recommended to not wait; good night, it was off the chart, de-li-cious! The Mortadella on Focaccia (#1), I think we need to go back to get a few for the plane ride home. The focaccia is crunchy on the outside but soft on the inside. The Mortadella is some of the best I have had. Major flavor and balance throughout. Monday, we ate one on the way to our next adventure – the Brasato (#25) (which was featured on triple D) and the owner’s go to when he’s hungry. Instead of using the salsa verde dressing it’s the salsa rossa dressing which is the verde plus sundried tomato’s and I can see why people as for that substitution on other sandwiches. Pares beautifully with the beef, fresh lettuce and house made sub buns. My only question, why did we get the small (ha). The (#16), Combo, is a beautiful blend of Ham, Salami, Capicola hot (but not too hot) provolone, fresh lettuce, and tomato. The provolone is not too overpowering. Our least fav, can we say least fav if we ate the whole thing? Lol. Still incredible was the Bresaola (#19), Cured beef tenderloin, truffle oil, arugula, shaved parmigiano. Next time in Providence this will definitely be a place we stop! It’s worth a trip back. Check them out! #ProvidenceRI #GoodFood #ItalianFood #ItalianSubs“
“Hands down the best chicken parm ever; my go to!! I caved and tried the lasagna because it looked so good-- covered in a pink vodka bolognese sauce with chunks of meat. Yum!! My bf said the veal parm was the best he'd ever had. Even the bread and aioli was awesome. A sweet hostess and multiple servers meant we wanted for nothing throughout our amazing dining experience. We were surprised how good the prices were in this economy too. Can't wait to come back! Free valet, so if you're worried about parking, don't!“
“Outstanding restaurant! We had the Chicken Portofino, the roasted carrot soup, and the limoncello tiramisu for desert. Our server Shannon recommended the entre and all was absolutely amazing. Tremendous menu that I am certain would not disappoint no matter what the dish. This place is a bit difficult to find. It does not look like the culinary gem that it is from the outside, but absolutely worth the search! *********+++++++“
“Absolutely wonderful experience at Cubix Matto. We met friends for an early dinner based on a recommendation from our neighbors. The menu selection of food and beverages was extensive and there were several fabulous specials. Wide range of beer, wine, and cocktails. The quality was outstanding. All four of us ordered something different and all were delicious. Try it. Cibo Matto will not disappoint.“
“Iannucilli Restaurant is absolutely fantastic! My meal was amazing and I'm not joking. I was apprehensive about getting the veal chop Parmigiana, but I'm telling you it's the best thing on the menu. We were a party of 4 at 730pm Saturday night. There was a chicken special, gnocchi, linguine and clams(white clam sauce) and my veal parm with capellini. My dinner was absolutely the best on the table. While the other meals looked great the linguine and clams was a bit dry- while at the other table right next to us, there was an vat of white clam sauce dripping over the side of the plate.I'm basing my review of Iannucilli on my meal only. Get this meal. You won't be disappointed. In fact our appetizer- cannellini beans, broccoli rabe and sausage was awesome too- but I think there could've been a little sauce to accompany this. I'd go so far as saying that I'd order that as an entree if it had 2x the beans, sausage and rabe. <-Nicky that should be an entree, the app was delicious!Our desserts were great too but I asked for an afogato- espresso with vanilla gelato. Simply put it was the best ending to a great meal.“
“Amazing food and experience. Their menu is fluid and every option is unique - made it tough to pick given how appealing everything sounded. Wife and I enjoyed the Mac Daddy burger, Odeum chicken sandwich, and a King Street Steak Tip sandwich because it was too tempting. Our sever Nicole was amazing, and manager John was incredibly nice and accommodating. We can’t wait to come back here.“
“Went first time yesterday and loved it. Small place with a couple of tables inside. Tried 2 of the sandwiches ( split with a family member). Both the Sophia and the Liana were great. You certainly got money's worth and the 2 ladies who worked there were awesome in the small interactions I had. Will definitely go back“
“1st time eating here. Service was very good. Food was good, large portions. My swordfish was slightly overcooked, but not bad. The rest of my party enjoyed their dinners. My biggest complaint was the strange seating. We had a party of six, they had a bench seat for 3 of us and chairs for the other 3. The strange part was the table for 2 set right on top of us. 1 person on the bench, 1 in a chair. Just felt very crowded. Overall a very pleasant dinner.“
“Came in during college visits with my son and we were so happy to have such an incredible meal start to finish!!! Great atmosphere with river views. Might be in my top 3 all-time meal experiences! We started with calamari, the bread and olive oil were perfect, my son had the Bolognese with just a perfect hint of fennel, and my ricotta cavatelli was superb, not too creamy and pasta was perfection… we finished our meal with the apple tart with crispy crust, and just the perfect amount of sweetness with the crèm anglaise! 1 million thanks for a perfect evening!!“
“Went for the first time on NY Eve. The atmosphere was pleasant and elegant, food was absolutely delicious with perfect portion size. Our waitress Ashley was very nice, knowledgeable, and attentive, made us feel welcome. Definitely will come back!!“
“Best pizza place around!! Always excellent service and food! The salad dressing is outstanding... it is the nectar of the gods lolVegetarian options: Excellent salads and pizzasParking: Parking lot is behind the buildingKid-friendliness: Very kid friendly!Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair enteance in back parking log“
“This is a 5 star for us all the way! You can’t get more authentic Italian food than this. It’s one of those hole in the wall places that simply blow your mind. The owner and chef stands about 4’8” and he is an absolute sweetheart. The food is cooked perfectly and tastes amazing. You must try the sizzling sirloin! Abbondanza folks! ❤️“
“Cucina 38 in North Attleboro is a hidden gem that offers an authentic Italian dining experience.Despite its small size, this charming restaurant packs a punch when it comes to flavor. Our waitress Molly was simply amazing. Her attentiveness and genuine friendliness made our dining experience truly wonderful.The pastas at Cucina 38 are a true standout, cooked al dente and bursting with flavor! We tried several of their dishes, but my favorite was the rigatoni!To complement the food we got, the restaurant also offers a good selection of wines and cocktails. We shared a couple bottles of wine tonight with dinner.Whether you’re craving a classic pasta dish, pizza, soups/salads, or eager to try something new, Cucina 38 delivers an unforgettable dining experience. Don’t let its small size fool you – this restaurant is a big contender in the world of Italian cuisine. Five stars!“
“What’s NOT to love about Anglelo’s? It’s a Federal Hill institution for a reason - great food and family atmosphere, warm and welcoming servers, and now with big beautiful windows overlooking Atwells Ave for that indoor-outdoor experience. And while it may be “old-school,” it continues to innovate - any restaurant that caters to gluten-free diners always goes to the tops of my list!“
“Food was great (pasta was fresh and delicious), service was phenomenal, atmosphere was nice and accommodating to children. Not a huge space, but we had reservations and it was great.Kid-friendliness: Pizza wasn’t on the menu, but they were able to order it from the pizzeria at the other end of the building and brought it down for my son.“
“We really enjoy their early bird specials. Peter loves the double tacos: shrimp and fish both fried along with a cup of white clam chowder. My favorite is the Boston baked haddock with cold slaw along with the white clam chowder. We both had the included lemon cake with fresh whipped cream. This might sound strange, but their cold filtered water is wonderful! Every meal there that we have had has been excellent!“
“Small Family style atmosphere restaurant.BYOBEach dish is prepared ? ?If you are looking for a quiet romantic dinner, this is not the place as this place is usually full of cheer laughter family and friends being themselves.Reservations are highly recommended .Always a great experience for us as well as our Family and FriendsParking: It is common to block those who you dine with in so that it frees up space for others.“
“If you're not eating at Tomaselli's, where are you eating? The staff, food and bar chairs are where it is at! They have daily specials and great deals. There is something for everyone on the menu. If you want Italian, look no further then your own local favorites at Tomaselli's at Rosario! Great for a small dinner or a large function. Call and reserve a spot today!“
“Cameron, the barback is one of the greatest young men, I have met in a long time. Hard-working, engaging, polite and never on his phone! He's going places and is a true tribute to your restaurant as is Kristen. We own a restaurant and were so impressed. Fantastic everything, but the staff is exceptional. Kudos!“
“The chicken parmesan was delicious. It came with a very generous serving of spaghetti and auntie's salad was delicious.The baked Ziti was very good, But next time I would only order if I was Dining in. It cooled off and just wasn't the same.“
“Pleasant atmosphere, courteous workers tending to your taste and owner more than accommodating to their customers. It’s just more than pleasant it’s like eating with family and friends like your home. Exquisite prepped delicious meals. I enjoyed my every visit. It’s like the return to the classic days of yesteryear with a modern flair. Thank you Bacco Vino & Contorni it is truly a pleasure dining with you.“
“We were in town for the fishing show we wanted good Italian food and drove around federal hill we spotted your place and the Sicilian flag (I'm Sicilian) and said this must be a good place. the food was outstanding and so good we did the burrata which was amazing the chicken Francese was out of this worlds and my husbands baked stuffed Shrimp was also out of this world we ended the night with with a cannoli and tiramisu and both were fantastic. This will be our new go to spot when we are up in Rhode Island“
“I’m giving Piemontes 5 stars because their pizza is fantastic. BUT….Piemonte’s…. Cmon… I ordered a gluten free pizza (margarita) and you put this HORRIBLE looking basil in my box, you didn’t even put it in my pizza, which also came cold as ice. Do better next time with Gluten free pizza.“
“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.“
“Veggie pizza is yummy with perfect size to the price. I recommend this place for pizza lovers.I request owner to add more veggie pizza options. There is no thin crust or dip dish.Vegetarian options: I request owner to include more veggie options for pizza.“
“We recently had our wedding here and it was amazing from beginning to end. The food was delicious and the staff was unbelievable. Thank you to Kelly for making this process as pleasant as possible! Everyone is still talking raving about the food weeks later!!! Thank you for everything! Michaela and Michael Rondeau“
“I cannot say enough good things about Don & Gigi’s!! This place has the best food with an at home atmosphere. You feel like you are apart of the family dining here! I love bringing my grandparents they really love it! Every dish I have tried is incredible and I am always bringing half of it home because it is such a generously large portion! This place is a must try“
“I enjoyed that real spiceyness that came with my bufflo tenders and bufflo chicken wings were perfectly made the seafood is made with skill and a refreshing skilled hand making great dishes friendly peaple with my favoite clam chowder I will definitely be “
“Located in the heart of Garden City which is always a fun place to visit with family and friends, my spouse and I went into Avivo with no expectations. On a Friday evening, the restaurant was busy but there wasn't any wait. We got a spot at the bar, and our bartender was really friendly and attentive. We ordered a few drinks and dinner. I had an espresso martini which was delicious. They had a great selection of wine and the bartender found one my wife really enjoyed. The food was great, I had a chicken caesar salad and the Mrs had a wrap that I did not try but she thought it had great taste and was very fresh. Would love to come back and try more food soon. Definitely found this to be a great place for a night out.“
“This is by far one of the most classic restaurants still in Rhode Island that has one of the most original tasting foods. It does not matter what you get on the menu. Here it is always 100% amazing. The portions alone are worth every penny. The desserts absolutely out of this world The staff is always 100% catering to each and every single need that you have. However, it was my birthday last night and the wait staff that we had for my table. A party of 10 was probably one of the best experiences we've ever had in any restaurant we've ever attended Matty and Louis Our hands down the best vibe we have ever, dad. They were so Charis, magic and catering that you couldn't have asked for a better time. It was like they were part of our party. Again, this is our always go to hands down. Favorite restaurant not and it's highly recommended in every way shape or form“
“Trattoria-JR Ginger Express is one of our favorite spots! Upon arrival we were seated promptly and acknowledged by our favorite server Hannah. As usual there are many great menu items available to select from, all reasonably priced. The only small and very unusual hiccup last night was the time it took our Entree's to be served. We had started with the Calamari as our appetizer. It was excellent as usual. Once we finished with it (there were four of us) so we were engaged in conversation, our server came by to check on drinks and apologize for the length of time it was taking for our entree's. While we had noticed this, we weren't overly concerned as we were with friends whom we hadn't seen in quite some time. Once served, the quality and plate presentation was excellent. Everyone was happy with their dinners. Our server did let the manager know about the long wait for the entree's and dessert was comped, which was certainly appreciated! We will most certainly be back. One little hiccup in over twenty-five visits doesn't change our outlook on this little gem in Lincoln.“
“We had Luigis cater a birthday party event at the Carousel in Roger Williams Park. They were absolutely fantastic. The 2 servers took care of literally everything. Thank you Jaime and Francesca! Food was delicious, service was beyond expectation. Everyone was delighted. I highly recommend them for catering.“
“Very solid spot for dinner if you're in the area. Not mind blowing but good! Had the Greek style salad that was good but a bit overdressed and a bit heavy on vinegar for my taste. Pasta was cooked well (had the bolognese). Portions quite sizeable! Easy to make a reservation and service was prompt and the right level of attentiveness.“
“Always great pizza and good owners, good variety of items to choose from, and a cool place to watch sports while eating. Kid friendly and a kids menu as well. Their Fish and Chips sell out quickly all the time and it's very good, not dripping in grease and a good sized portion.“
“It’s just all around amazing. The food is fantastic and the service kicks-ass. Madison, Ashley and Alex on the bar are phenomenal. My husband is a member of the Mug Club too! The Gold Digger pizza is literally one of my favorite pizzas of all time. The Goodfellas sandwich and eggplant rollatini are awesome too. Just go cuz if not, you’re missing out!“
“Great place. Great food. Only complaint, the price to value ratio sucks. Chicken parm dinner. Just chicken and pasta, 20 something bucks. It's all restaurants right now, I get it. Inflation blah blah blah. I hope that the prices come down or that the value ratio increases as quickly.“

“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.

“Went for an early dinner here while in RI. We got the bruschetta appetizer which was really good. Three nice size pieces. We had chicken parmigiana and fettuccine Alfredo with shrimp. Both were really good. Portions were a nice size. Our server was Leah and she was amazing. She was on top of things and we never had to ask for anything she was there to provide it. There were a lot of regulars it seemed at the bar. It was early so not really too busy. Would definitely recommend this place and go back again when in town.“
