Nordstrom CAFE

This place is a hidden gem. Their food is good, I had tortellini and I like it a lot. My lovely server (Asian) I forgot her name though I think it was Liz. She was very pleasant and caring and very sincere. She made sure I never stand up to refill my soda. Her smile was contagious. I would go back there again because of this pleasant experience.

Definitely worth looking into. I came here with a close friend for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. We had the oriental chicken salad, sodas, and a turkey sandwich to share. Although the restaurant is semi self service, they bring the food to your table, periodically check to make sure everything is going well and they bring a dessert menu, and chocolate candies at the end of your stay. I found the food to be well prepared, fresh, and delicious. The servers were courteous and respectful....read full review

This bistro style restaurant is located way up on the third floor of the Providence Place mall, in the northeast corner of the Nordstrom store. Nice views of the state house and the Waterplace Park area of PVD. Cafeteria style setup for picking and ordering with eventual table service. The food includes pizza, sandwiches, pasta, salads etc. Good place to people watch for everyone from local politicos to celebs staying at the Renaissance or the Omni, down the Francis Street walkway
