“I was impressed by service of this restaurant, we were sitting on the bar and Harold was so attentive and helpful, the food was so good, wine and the cocktail “purple rain” was my favorite, I definitely recommend to visit this amazing place “
“Fantastic bar on the west side of Providence, walkable from Downtown, Federal Hill, and the West End. My favorite part of their drink menu is their cocktails, but they have a great beer selection and decent wine selection as well. Prices are very affordable, and the service has always been great.Most times I’ve gone it’s been a chill spot, not too crowded with good music. This past weekend I went and it was packed. We figured we came during an event, and turns out it was Kimi’s birthday! Even got a slice of birthday cake on the house, and had a great time even though we felt a bit like party crashers. Staff couldn’t have been more friendly, though, and I’m looking forward to coming back again!“
“My husband and I were fortunate enough to have Troop host our wedding in November and it was the best time! Every one of our guests commented that it was the best wedding they have ever been to. Adam and Nikki helped me from the beginning to capture my vision of my perfect wedding day. The staff was on point and the food...A-MAZING! No stuffy country club blah food here! And we had bartenders that rocked!! Never waited for a drink. As the bride...I have to give Nikki a special shout out, she was right there to make sure my husband and I ate and were taken care of. The best was when I was getting into the limo to leave and she handed me a take out bag with pieces of my wedding cake and Troop's delicious chocolate chip cookies. If you haven't had one then your missing out. My guests all left with one to take home. I highly recommend Troop to host your next party. Enjoy!“
“Wonderful curated bookstore! Not only do they have adult books, they have great children books and greeting cards. The owners Alexa and Emory are the nicest pair and make the store so welcoming. I also love that you can order any book online through them. Definitely check it out!“
“Great place to hang. Owners are amazing and the staff are some of the best in the business! Great selection of beers and spirits, free pinball and spectacular decor if you’re a horror fan. Where else can you go and see a picture of an autographed foot?“
“Perhaps one of The Point Tavern's most enchanting features is its private patio. This hidden gem offers an intimate setting for dining, drinking, and socializing. Surrounded by tasteful greenery and ambient lighting. Each dish, from appetizers to entrees, is prepared with an attention to detail, combining classic comfort food with innovative twists.“
“Their stuffed pretzels are out of the world!! The beer is amazing, banana pudding beer is a must try!! Their apricot butter dipping creates heaven in our mouth!! Highly recommend going there for a bite of their delicious pretzels and dips!!“
“Fabulously located on the river with great outdoor seating, very bike friendly and a great spot for a date!! We tried Besina, the Mexican concept for lunch one day and the Italian concept, Double Zero, for dinner another night. Both had inventive, well executed menus though not a total knockout from either. Would come back to try more from both of these spots, as well as the other businesses in the market hall. Double Zero: We loved the deconstructed raw lasagne - I cannot emphasize how cool this dish is - cultured cashew ricotta, dollops of tomato sauce and pesto, and thinly sliced ribbons of raw zucchini. It's phenomenal and I want to make it at home. Not as great - the chili pizza. It doesn't have enough toppings and was just an oily sheet of dry dough with globs of the same cashew ricotta. Besina: We were pleased to be introduced to Tlayuda, a thin Oaxacan flat bread that they top with jackfruit, loads of cultured cashew crema, herbs, and avocado. My partner was crazy about it but i'm generally not totally convinced by the sweetness of jackfruit and it was a little too wet for my taste. Not as great - the Tacos Dorados. Fried oyster mushrooms were heavy and dense and served with an aioli which contributed to the heavy flavors. Could be remedied with a lighter batter on the mushrooms and more of a salad/pickled veg component and it would be delicious. Updated from previous review on 2024-04-04“
“Quite the hidden gem. I stumbled upon this as a choice coming in from out of town and considered it an option if we had nothing else to do. We had some time, so wandered over to this very unassuming to the point of worrisome place. However, super worth it. I've been to barcades before but haven't been to one that charges a general admission ($7 pp) for unlimited games which is (pun intended) a game changer. The drinks were very reasonably priced. The gaming options felt like I was preparing for Ready Player One, with extensive options. Most games were functional (RIP left guitar of Guitar Hero) and it was awesome to be able to win skeeball and air hockey over and over again and continue my mission on various games without having to pay for more time. Wish I had more time to spend here!“
“Officially one of my new favorite restaurants in providence! When you walk in, there's dim lighting which I particularly enjoyed especially because it made the providence sign stand out. Our waitress was kind and very attentive from the minute we were seated. Now the food was divine, everything was perfect. We ordered the calamari and each ordered the short rib with gnocchi. Every ingredient in that dish complimented each other so well, it was such a lovely culinary experience. My friend also ordered the "only fans" drink which she enjoyed. Will definitely return and can't wait to introduce more family and friends to this restaurant.“
“My new favorite bar! There are places that are just aesthetic and places that are just vibey and this place has all the vibes and is aesthetically pleasing in spades. The staff were warm and welcoming, the drinks were delicious (great NA mocktails) and the music was perfect. Already can't wait to go back!“
“Frequenting Red Door has become a ritual for my friends and myself, and for a good reason - it's a culinary destination that effortlessly marries an exceptional drink menu with an inviting ambiance and engaging events. Red Door, in my experience, is a delightful journey through flavors with menu items such as the Heihei chicken and drinks such as Oaxacacillin, and Emerald City, and an ever-changing tapestry of events, and a haven of positive vibes.“
“This Place is truly a hub for such an Awesome Supportive Community. There is always an event going on or just a great place to hang out with friends. The Ownership, Staff and Patrons are welcoming. The Scurvy Dog is a great model for how a local business should take care of its customers. Thank you for being so Excellent.“
“Absolutely Horrible service . Order few burgers around noon and waited till 230 !! And that was Take out!! Unbelievable. they said 20 min …we literally had to leave and go somewhere else just couldn’t wait any longer it’s that bad …. Here’s your warning“
“Apps - Polenta fries were the best I’ve ever had. Nice crispy exterior and beautifully creamy inside. Well seasoned and you get the taste of jalepeño without the spiciness. As someone who makes their own plenty of fries at home, I highly recommend these!We also shared the ribs which were fall off the bone amazing! Sauce had a little kick and I appreciated the garnish with peanuts to provide some crunch!Overall, I think the apps were better than the entree and there were a lot more “small plates” to choose from.Entree - my partner and I split the fried chicken sandwich and burger. Both of which were great sandwiches, meaty and well seasoned. Fries come on the side and had a nice seasoning on them.Service - appetizers came out quick, no issues there. However, for the entrées, I was served my sandwich five minutes before my partner and was nearly done before he got his food. That’s really the only fault we can find!Key Takeaways:⭐️ bring friends to go tapas style with all the amazing small plates / appetizers⭐️ingredients are high qualityWheelchair accessibility: Accessible“
“I just wanted to drop a 5-star review and give a shoutout to Dallas for making us feel so welcome this evening. I called ahead to inquire about mocktails, and was told they could definitely accommodate that request. My coworker and I showed up, neither of us drink, and Dallas made us both amazing mocktails. I often feel like the bartenders in most places are annoyed when you don’t drink alcohol but I really did feel welcome and included and was very grateful. The drinks were great, and I will definitely be back, alcohol or no alcohol. You guys are great! Thanks so much.“
“We are from out of town and wanted the "local" experience. The bartender was great and he gave us so much insider info about the city and where to go. The regulars were super, the food was simple yet delicious and the live music was a fun bonus!! Definitely get some local beer and the stuffies!!“
“It’s a good spot that stays open later than most places in the area but with really good food. I’ve come back multiple times in one week.Loved almost everything I’ve had here. The charcuterie board comes with soft boiled eggs and toasts.I like the lighting in the evening ; nice and dim but I did see some people needing their phone lights to see the menu. I thought it was perfect lighting though.Great mashed potatoes. Very creamy and maybe whipped?The prices of some items are reasonable and others are a bit more expensive. Fries were $9 and they were great but I just think that’s an odd price for that.It does get really loud in here at night on weekends as they try to transition into more of a bar.Parking is obviously a bit difficult but they seem to offer valet services and I chose to walk instead. It’s also not far from the bus for easy public transportation.You should make a reservation if you decide to come here during popular times like Friday-Saturday nights but most other times are fine.“
“Great place to watch a game and have a cigar and drinks with friends. We ordered food and came out promptly. The waitress was very friendly and made sure our drinks were full. Had their own parking lot across the street in busy federal hill, making it easy for “
“Gilligan’s is GREAT! Been my local for a number of years…the owner Amanda has tastefully updated it since buying it, yet kept the great friendly, welcoming feeling. Nice wine list, local crafts & a good place to catch a game! Give it a try“
“This is a fantastic restaurant with great service. The food was really good and the pace was relaxed. Our waiter was one of the best I have ever had. Extremely attentive and kind. We ate here for Easter. Wide selection of items. Everyone was happy with their meals. We will be back.“
“Came tonight to celebrate my daughter's birthday! Food was delicious! My picky eater son loved the skewers! Steaks were phenomenal, as always! Our waiter was super nice, but I felt not very attentive given it wasn't a super busy night. Overall a great dinner at 10!“
“I had a wonderful experience at Nick’s last night. Brought my dad there for his birthday on a reservation I had made the night before. We were running ahead of schedule so called to see if they could take us early and they were SO accommodating! Also, I had mentioned (very much in passing) when I made the rez that it was my dad’s bday. I definitely didn’t make a big deal about it. And shortly after we sat down, our server (maybe she was the manager/owner?) brought over 2 glasses of Prosecco and wished him a happy birthday!!! What an amazing and thoughtful touch! The food was amazing as usual (I love nicks!) and when asked, our server knew where all the ingredients came from (almost all local!) and even turned me on to a new delicious tequila (also from a local family!). Overall, A+ rating for Nick’s!! Thank you!“
“My daughter and I have been wanting to go here since the start of the pandemic! Finally made it. It is the cutest bar. Small inside but heated patio outside. We went when they first opened on NYE. The most friendly staff I’ve ever encountered. The cocktails were delicious. Definitely going back in the warmer weather •“
“What Cheer is home to a lot of people in the Providence area. I've been coming here for years and years and still love it. Great drinks, amazing food, and fun and friendly staff. Nothing beats a summer night on their patio either watching the game while playing corn hole or watching actual live music. Feels like being at your best friends summer BBQ party! Did I mention they have that too? You have to go on a Sunday to get the infamous Horseman BBQ, you won't be let down.“
“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 had some time to kill before catching a train out of town. I'm glad I stopped in here. Such a cool, laid-back cocktail bar in downcity Providence. Ryan is an amazing bartender who's quick with a drink suggestion and is an absolute artiste while making a cocktail. A good place to have a drink or two with.“
“The location at 10 Sims ave is huge. This is much bigger than the location on Ives street. The food is always excellent and the staff are super friendly. On Saturdays a farmer market is open at the Farm Fresh HUB. You can't go wrong with the fried fish taco or the chicken taco. My husband loves all of the burrito options.“
“The new, full service bar is very attractive, with great lighting, a tin ceiling and a fully stocked bar. What is not new is the continued great, personable service by John, the owner, and the Delicious food. The burgers were cooked to perfection, the onion petals and their sauce are amazing. I'm not a fried food fan, but those onion petals cannot be beat!“
“Small venue, small dance floor, can be overwhelming @ times with Drunk college kids, drinks are moderately priced they also have themed night's like comedy night, karaoke night, and jam bands etc; pretty cool spot!!Parking: There is rarely front door on street parking, I usually park half a block away, DO NOT PARK IN WALGREENS they will tow you sometimes there is off side street parking!!Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp to get into Jake and Johnny's but no automatic door opener ?and no ramp for the restaurant to get into that definitely needs to be addressed and fixed !“
“Saw a great show had this amazing drink, I don't drink often and this was great sweet and tasty. Had popcorn chicken and jalapenos poppers it's bar food it's salty and delicious. They had pizzas that looked good but I already overindulged would go back“
“Came here for my first night out since I’ve been sober on a Monday night , my friends all drink so I was fully expecting to feel a little weird drinking my water while they all drank cocktails , the bartender was wonderful & made me the cutest mocktail , he was super friendly & not annoyed at all by the request , made my day is an understatement. I didn’t have cash on me but I can’t wait to come in to thank him properly .“
“I've always enjoyed going here, it's never the same. Sometimes we go, it's slow and other times it's crazy busy. Foods consistent. The wait staff are friendly. Food is always quick and drinks are priced accordingly. Will definitely return.“
“Best bar in Providence and I have only been to this one( can’t see anyone being better). Heard good things about it and it did not let me down. The ladies that work here are all tremendous, Polite, professional and know how to make a damn drink. Not only can they hold a conversation but the people that come into the bar can too. All around a great bar with great people and great drinks. Support this place because they deserve it and you will appreciate it too. I’m new to Providence and the place in a whole made me feel welcome!!!!“
“Gary & Craig have carried on the tradition that the Feeney's set for decades prior. Some updates have been made and DO NOT miss out on St Patrick's Day or MORE importantly their annual Toys for Tots fundraiser! The bartenders are all welcoming and it's a great place to see PC basketball away/tournament games or pre/post home hockey, soccer, lacrosse, women's basketball games (because of how close the campus is!“
“Went for the first time last night , the food was delicious ! Our waitress was fantastic and the atmosphere as well ! Very cozy ! I really loved the menu selections . Everything we had, apps and entrees were delicious ! I will be going back !!“
“Out of all the bars in Providence, juniper has solidified its spot as my favorite for many different reasons. First and foremost- the drinks. That's what we go to a cocktail bar for, right? The creative and extensive lineup of cocktails here has something for every taste. From the sultriest, smokiest scotch concoction you can imagine all the way down to the lightest, most refreshing punch, they've got what you're looking for. Not sure what you're looking for? Tell Morgan or Brian what you like and let them take it away. Secondly, the space itself is a dream come true. I'm not a big "going out" guy. Crowds, loud music, tvs on every wall- not my jam. This bar is none of that. It is a small, very tasteful space where you can hear yourself think, and hear your friends talk. The lighting is perfect, and the music is always good. Stopping in here for a couple drinks feels like sitting by the fire in your living room while it's storming outside. It just doesn't get any cozier. Third, the fresh Knead donuts! Not your usual cocktail pairing, but who can resist? Certainly not me. With a rotating selection of whatever just came out of the oven, you can't go wrong. This is a speakeasy, so you'll have to find the password to get buzzed in. Trust me, its worth looking for.“
“We have a team dinner at this place. Most of us are traveling from other East coast cities, like New York, Philly and Boston. If this can change to all you can eat version, that will be even better. For the food, I feel Spicy pot is better than the tomato one. (tomato one is not juicy enough) overall beef related meat is good. Frog leg is not tender enough, and stripe is not tasting right from real Chinese way. Overall is good.“
“Not sure about food, service or anything else I was there because my Dad's (Bubba Rezendes) repass was there. The atmosphere was nice and I like that they had outside area with a bar. I would return to 148 Pavillion to get the full experience.“
“WILL drive back to RI from NY for the calamari. Best I ever had, like ever. The short rib was a tad disappointing. It was cooked to perfection but tastless. Everything else was great including our server RYAN with an R. Thanks for a wonderful experience. My sister enjoyed her birthday dinner. Will be back.“
“Went for dinner after a meeting. Friends and coworkers came along. Everyone was happy with the food and service. Quick to be seated and drinks on the table.Parking: Parking lot has many cameras and plenty of space.Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access for those with disabilities.“
“Great place to relax and watch a game with friends. Very accommodating Staff and Owner. Multiple Sports - TV's - Tables with easy access and parking. Play Pool, Keno, cards or just hang out and yell at the TV like the rest of us! Oh! and the Food is second to none!!!“
“I got outrageously hammered here and miscalculated my tab when it was time to sign it and ended up tipping them in almost 100%, which would have been way too much even tho they're good folks. luckily they were kind enough to notice and not debit all that money from my card so 5/5 will come again“
“I make a point of seeking out speakeasies when I travel and can say that 345 has one of the most creative entrances I've been pleasantly stumped by. The search is well worth it. Cocktails are elevated and well crafted. Food is fresh and delicious. (My bartender was very kind and proactive to ask if I had any dietary restrictions to notify the kitchen about which I felt was very considerate.) The staff are so friendly and accommodating - even when I observed they were very busy and understaffed - and are there to ensure that you feel welcome and absolutely love your experience. The atmosphere is classy and intimate - there are lots of nooks for a small group of friends or a date night. I can't wait to visit again the next time I'm in Providence.Vegetarian options: The bartender was very proactive and asked if there were any dietary restrictions to tell the kitchen about, which really impressed me and I felt was very thoughtful.“
“The food here is absolutely amazing. They're pizza is one of the best I have ever tasted. It is fresh and tastes splendid. The staff here is very friendly and do such an amazing job. It also has a great atmosphere if you plan on dining in.“
