“Exceptional food and fantastic service! I would highly recommend asking for the server Kevin B. What a well rounded server who gave us several suggestions which we were all impressed with.“

“As I said “ INTERESTING PLACE ““

“The cocktails were great, the bartender was even better! We didn't eat, but you have to rate the food to proceed with this survey; not to mention it took two passwords, one text & one email, to give this survey...mot good OpenTable!“

“thanks for a friendly, fun, entertaining afternoon. Food was so flavorful and the drinks were delicious 😋 jazz music was so enjoyable 🥰“

“Very cool place with great music and staff. Monday night jazz is awesome!“

“Do not live here if you care about your car. On two separate occasions my car was vandalized and my roommates car was stolen from the off street parking. The landlords have done nothing to improve the security.“

“This little restaurant, raw bar, bar bar is not messing around. They handle their shellfish perfectly, cold, crazy fresh, and masterfully shucked. I recommend just a dash of the mignonette to just highlight the delicious flavors of the posters. The bartender told me the raw scallops have never left the menu so I ordered them. I can see why they're almost a signature of GH. The bok choy pancake is really good but strangely filling. Plenty for 2.

The cocktails are well mixed.

Highly recommended.“

“We tried Needle & Thread during Providence Restaurant Week and it was fabulous. Drinks were amazing and the short ribs were so delicious. The interior is gorgeous and adds to the speakeasy vibe. We will definitely visit again!“

“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.“

“Classic dark interior low lighting cocktail lounge. Our party of four enjoyed a mix of cocktails and a couple of beers at reasonable prices. Only a brief visit on this occasion as it was the one for the road as they say but would definitely return when I have more time.“

“Great service, ambiance, and sushi.“

“My son and I enjoyed a wonderful birthday lunch at Fleur Providence on January 19 at 12:30 pm. The two servers were attentive and professional, making our experience exceptional. A big thank you for the thoughtful birthday dessert—it was a lovely touch. We can't wait to return!“

“Walking in is a vibe on its own, not to many restaurants have that. It almost feels like your not even in Providence anymore.Started off with some apps, i got the Spicy Shrimp( the sauce on the shrimp was very very good!) and the calamari. I personally dipped my calamari in the spicy shrimp sauce but thats a conversation for a different day.Unfortunately i didn’t get to have my drink in a flamingo or a lil piggy but thats ok. The drinks were very good!The Chicken Milanese was a bit too thin (my opinion) but it was good.The steak was cooked to perfection, the mushroom risotto was very very good too. Im definitely getting the tomahawk next time i come.“

“Location/decor/ambiance: the owners have tried to turn the spacious brick and beam interior of a former factory building into a ghetto-ish inner cityscape skateboard park using graffiti-style airbrush graphics, little skateboards that serve as bar chair seat backs, concrete floors painted with Providence manhole covers, etc. Visually, the effect is mixed. I “get” what the owners are trying for, but it isn’t for me an “attractive” dining decor. It looks much more like a dance club for young twenty-somethings. I quickly adjusted to the inner-city grunge decor, but what we couldn’t adjust to was the VERY loud rap/hip-hop music blaring out of some very robust speakers non-stop. Talking was difficult. Yes, I’m an older person, but I don’t begrudge anyone their musical sensibilities… provide its not full of “***** and “nigga” and roaring out at at least 90 decibels. Whatever they’re trying to be, they need to remember that they are l (at 10 am) a restaurant, not a dance club. Food & service: unexpectedly, given the above criticism, the food was outstanding, I mean really good. Caught us off guard. Just beautifully imagined and realized. Would I return? Probably not. Even the great food cant quite overcome the soundscape. Interesting place, though“

“Pause the hibachi chicken and the hibachi steak was extremely top-notch delicious definitely recommend going here and enjoying that. I felt like the steak just melted it in your mouth and the chicken left. A nice savoring lasting taste that you wouldn’t get bored of. Also, I wanted to mention their bartender their new bartender. Seth is very entertaining right on point with drinks knows what he’s doing.“

“Great atmosphere! And Christine our server was awesome. Very friendly and helpful. She checked on us consistently- thanks! I only got pics of our appetizers as we were hungry and chowed on our mani courses. Started with a 1930 DAQ, Wawtuhmelon and a Vino Rosso Gaio - all drinks were tasty! We started with the Truffle fries and the Crispy Duck Meatballs- oh my both were great! The flavor in the Duck meatballs was amazing! The sweet chili glaze just hits it out of the park! On to dinner I ordered the Steak Frites - excellent flavor and cooked perfect! Wife ordered the Chicken Picatta - very tasty with a great lemon flavor! Daughter ordered the Pink Vodka - also really flavorful with interesting noodles I had not had before. Thank you for a great experience- we shall be back! Thanks Chef Max!“

“Amazing best service and lounge“

“First off, let’s start with the space. I’m visiting from a big cityyy so my expectations can be a little high — but this place is absolutely breathtaking. The vibe is cozy, upscale, and still relaxed enough to just kick back and enjoy. It feels refreshing and thoughtfully designed without trying too hard.

Bianca, the bartender who helped me out, was incredible. She has such a well-crafted, extensive specialty knowledge and was amazing at guiding me through the menu when my indecisiveness kicked in (which happens often). She’s relatable, friendly, a little edgy in the best way, and the space felt very queer-friendly and welcoming because of that energy. I’m already looking forward to coming back and chatting it up with B again.

Only small con: the payment process. It would be a nice upgrade to have handheld devices so guests don’t have to give up their phones to close out. Small detail, but it would elevate the experience even more.

Overall, a fantastic spot and definitely worth visiting.“

“One of the best cigar bars in RI! The ventilation system is incredible, every seat is very comfortable and their selection is top notch. Highly recommend!“

“Dined here last night before PPAC, for that reason we made an early dinner reservation. I confirmed when calling they had valet parking. We arrived to find no valet attendant. After some back and forth with hostess and manager my husband was finally able to come inside for dinner, nearly 30 mins wasted. Our server AJ provided exemplarry service; she was personable and knew the menu like the back of her hand. We appreciated her service, and our dinners were all very good. As we departed we confirmed with the tardy valet attendant if we could leave the car and pick up after the show as we do with neighboring establishments and he said no because they would be closed by the time the show was over; this couldn’t have been further from the truth. The valet was rude, late, and it’s terribly unfortunate that the valet ruined what could have been a great dinner with friends.“

“Amazing, Authentic, and Delicious Liberian experience and Joel (1/2) of the JoRo name origin was so personable and hospitable, I only wish I had time to have gone back several times 🤭

I even got to meet the magic behind the goodness in the kitchen.

10/10 Highly Recommend.

& I'm Liberian so I know good Liberian food!

The spinach was just what we needed after a 10 hour drive ✨🙌🏿& it didn't take forever to fulfill the order and Joel served it with extra fried pepper sauce upon request.“

“We have been to Bandidos a LOT and we have always had an amazing experience. The food is wonderful, the drinks are delicious and the staff is so warm and friendly. I have yet to order the same thing twice, and everything has been delicious! We just used them as a caterer for an event and it was flawless, the portions were plentiful and everything was SO GOOD! They made it effortless, they set everything up for us and everyone had been raving about it! Bandidos will be the first place I go to for all of my catering needs in the future!“

“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 !! 💯❤️“

“Hands down one of the best meals ever prepared was done with Distinguish catering. Very professional and the quality of the meal on point. I cant wait to try more of their menu options!“

“Great place and wonderful food good service“

“My dad and I have been frequenting this place now after some friends recommended it, food is always great, this was our second time having the waitress Joelle, and I have to say she made the entire experience here amazing both times just a really sweet soul 10/10“

“Had an incredible meal there last night! The buffalo chicken egg rolls, the Rogue Melt, and the lobster Mac & cheese. All amazing! I’m more of a vodka drinker but the beer selection was incredible and our waiter helped me pick the perfect wheat beer! 100% I’d go back (when in town). A definite 2 thumbs up!“

“Been coming here since their initial location in Greenville. Went to their new location and loved it. Definitely smaller, but loved the intimate setting. Especially when guests embrace the concept. It’s like you’re all experiencing dining together prompting conversation with strangers gathering for the common love of food. Love everything about this new place. Oh and the food is still phenomenal.“

“Love the place. Always a new taco to try. Serious taco lovers won't be disappointed.“

“Fast and friendly services and very good foods. Love it❤️️❤️️🍹🍷🍸“

“You got the best fish and chips! Staff was super nice! I tried the oysters and they were amazing also!“

“Great food!!! …you do need to invest in real Martini glasses!!!“

“Amazing food, staff and surroundings. Classy but yet cozy. Food portions are huge and ohh so flavorful. Totally impressed that the owner Shane makes a point to visit all his customers and even kicks in to keep operations running smooth. Cant wait to try something new. My goal is to try everything! So far nothing has disapointed!“

“View is amazing! Staff is attentive and friendly.“

“Great cocktails, appetizers and dinner, but ONE MAJOR DETAIL OVERLOOKED- when we made our reservation for our party of 6, we specifically asked for a candle in a dessert as we were celebrating a birthday in our party. We enjoyed our meals and eagerly awaited dessert- but the only surprise was that we got the check! When I mentioned this to our (otherwise very good) waitress, she said she wasn't advised of the birthday....very disappointing!“

“We showed up ~10 minutes early but we're still seated and had a very nice waitress who walked us through the menu. The foot was flavorful and reasonably priced. All together, we ordered a birria taco, a coconut shrimp tacos, and the street corn nachos (which we loved), and paid ~$35.“

“The best in town try it you will like it great owners definitely awesome“

“Amazing dumplings. Food was fantastic“

“Our first time to Terra Negra was on January 1st 2026. My wife and I had an amazing time. The food, drinks and service was awesome.

We came back for the second time on Sunday January 4th for the Brunch. Again. Food , drinks and service out of this world.
Congratulations to the entire team for making our experience one to remember !!!“

“I very much enjoyed my experience at OURS. The food was delectable and the drinks were tasteful. I very much enjoyed the wings with the Garlic as well as the Steak Tikka. It was $30 which some might consider pricey, but came with a very large portion of food. It included hummus, nan, rice, a salad and of course the steak, so I’d say it’s fairly priced. Overall I enjoyed the food and will certainly return but next time I’ll try the hookah!“

“Beautiful spacious atmosphere with lovely views and delicious food. Our spring rolls were fresh, served with a generous portion of delicious fresh peanut dipping sauce. The soupy pork dumplings cannot be duplicated - tender and tasty. Main dishes included salmon (which my friend said was delicious) and a noodles dish, which we selected from a LONG list of options. Creative and extensive drink list, and lovely dessert options. Recommended!“

“Absolutely amazing! The food was great and the staff were wonderful. Lilah was our waitress and she was the best, very attentive, kind and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!“

“Good music and wonderful staff ❤️“

“A great time in downtown Providence!“

“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!“
