17 Best Wine Bars in Providence

“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.“

“Great food, nice wine selection and amazing staff Local neighborhood treasure“

“5 stars across the board! If I could give 10 stars I would!! The food, the atmosphere, Chef Sky, GM Ben, Bar Manager Rachel and the Entire staff is amazing! They go above and beyond! My husband and I go there weekly for some of the most amazing food in Providence and love to see our Gift Horse friends! Highly recommend for anyone looking for the best oysters, fun drinks, beautifully inspired Korean/American cuisine and a lovely atmosphere!“

“Love this place! The bread was warm and so yummy! The wine and dinner were also on point. I love the lobster ravioli!“

“I held a rehearsal dinner at Maria’s and I cannot say enough how great it was to plan with the help of Chris Spertini. He made the whole evening a success by guiding me with food choices and seating arrangement. Our server was excellent. She was extremely attentive to our guests. This will be my go-to restaurant. If you have not dined at Maria’s you are missing out.“

“It's great to see the Xo Bar open again! It was always one of our top lounges to go to back in the early 2000s! Now its even better with the new hang out lounge area! It's so hard to find a nice place with cozy couches in RI. It has a great set up and friendly service! We will be back!!“

“I enjoyed having dinner here with my awesome date. Jeff was very kind and made me feel very comfortable about eating out despite my food allergies. He took the time to tell me how food was prepared and I never felt rushed at all. I also appreciated that the chef was willing to prep the sides totally different area where nuts maybe. Highly recommend this restaurant for hugh class service and making you feel welcomed.

“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.“

“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. Overall a great experience.“

“Service was exquisite. My wife and I felt like Royalty. The staff and the Manager on duty made our 10th Anniversary feel like we were dining at a royal palace. I can’t say enough but we want to extend our deepest thanks for making our celebration of our life together as memorable as they did.“

“Tonight we dined at Res American Bistro. From the moment we walked in to the time we left, we could not have been treated any better. The hostess after asking a couple of questions and getting a sense of what type of dining experience we were looking for, asked us to follow her up to the second floor and there it was—the most perfect seat in the restaurant. A corner couch seat overlooking the city❤️. Our waiter, Logan, was beyond excellent. Knowledgeable about the menu-both food and drink. Attentive but not obnoxious. We elected to order several appetizers after devouring the warm, crusty mini French bread served in individual paper bags—so French. He said he would take care of both the timing and sequencing of the plates, and that he did!! Each time a new pair of appetizers came out, he would change out plates and utensils. Amazing attention to detail and our dining nuances. Now for the food-calamari tender and light with a perfect sauce to go with them. Lobster tempura to die for-a definite must!! Crab Rangoon perfection-a creamy blend of cream cheese and spices. The Scotch egg was a savory treat that you simply cannot find in many restaurants-excellent! And the last appetizer was their lamb chops-tender, juicy and grilled to perfection. For desert we asked our waiter for his recommendation-a tart with blueberry basil ice cream and streusel crumb toping was agreed upon. Simply divine. In conclusion, if you want to dine at a restaurant that has phenomenal service and exceptional food, this is the place to go to⭐️“

“Bacaro is an absolute gem in Providence. Since my first visit 15 years ago to today, the food has remained fantastic and is ALWAYS consistent. The wait staff is extremely kind and attentive. The outdoor seating in the summer is a small slice of peace and those corn dishes. Omg.“

“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!“

“The service was excellent along with the food!“
