“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.“

“Great experience and service! Paige served us at the bar- it was her first night and you would have never known it!! I actually lost an envelope with some money in it for my trip and they brought it back to me at the hotel we were staying at next door! So grateful for this- Thank you!“

“This is the perfect place. The food was off the fork. It was incredibly out of this world. It will definitely have you licking your chops. The Music was perfect and The waiter Carl went above and beyond to make sure we were pleased with the food and service. Carl was outstanding and kind. Overall everything was Delightful!!!“

“Terrazza RI in Smithfield, RI has done it again! This time they teamed up with Ember To Ash Lounge for a fabulous evening featuring premium cigars from Oliva Cigar Co. and a decadent five-course dinner with wine pairings with a fabulous jazz band for entertainment. We kicked things off with a refreshing lobster & shrimp ceviche, followed by a savory filet crostini and crisp summer salad. Next came the star of the night—pillowy homemade ravioli—before finishing with an impressive mixed grill served in a truly generous portion! A huge thank you to Ariana, Shay, Megan, and the entire team for crafting such a memorable and delicious experience.“

“I had a surprise party for my husband in the private room and it couldn’t have gone any better! It started out with Andrew, the manager and Maggie who gave me the run down from setting up the room to food and drink suggestions. The excellent service followed with Tasha, our waitress who couldn’t do enough for our large group. Everything came out as ordered and always with a smile. And might I add delicious! Kudos to the chef!! And last but not least the room was decorated just as I wanted with a HUGE thank you to Marcus. I was having a balloon meltdown lol until Marcus stepped in, and took all my worries away with all his patience which I had now run out of. Lol
Sometimes it’s just the small things where people go above and beyond for you, just at the right time, that mean so much. It’s the team effort that really shines thru in this restaurant. That being said, I would highly recommend anyone looking for fine dinning, great service and great food, choose Sienna. They will not disappoint. :)“

“Ordered takeout from Wise Guys on Douglas Pike in Smithfield. We were greeted by a sassy and friendly Holly when picking up. The order was ready 10 minutes early and was piping hot. We had a NY Sytle half ham & half pepperoni, a Sicilian cheese, and a huge personal Knucky Thompson with Blue Cheese. Great sauce and crust. Glad we finally tried this place out and loved the customer service!!“

“the food was good the service was good“

“I was fortunate enough to get a job here in 1996, when I was a sophomore at Bryant. Not only is the food amazing, I've been longing for it for years, tried to recreate a couple dishes myself. These people were my family when I was away from mine. Been gone for 18 years and still miss all of it and them every day. went back last year for a tournament at Bryant with my daughter, they still have every Christmas card I ever sent them of my children over the years hanging on the wall. Nothing says Family like that! Love and miss you all!“

“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.“

“A wonderful experience and the best Italian restaurant in Rhode Island“

“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!“

“What a wonderful meal and atmosphere!!!“

“Been patronizing Angelo's for years (years & years) - it's my 'Go To' place in Providence for Italian. There are plenty of good Italian Restaurants but Angelo's treats you like family . My favorte server is Thera - always smiling - always friendly - and always flying around the resturant making sure everyone is happy. My recommendation - ask for her :-)“

“I have numerous food allergies, making going out to eat an anxiety filled experience for me. We found Cassarino's while looking for a safe place to eat while in Providence. I've struggled with finding an Italian restaurant I'm comfortable eating at for years! Our server, Morgan, went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and safe while eating here! I would happily take the 45 minute drive down here to eat again.“

“Outstanding meal! There were 7 of us for a family gathering (we met in the middle for CT + MA family) and everything about our dinner was exceptional! The food, the wine, the calamari + dip, the bread, the olive oil + balsamic dip were all delicious, but the lobster ravioli and caramel gelato were to die for. Omg! Our server was perfect too. We will be back. Thank you!“

“This restaurant is awesome but if Cosa Nostra had any f****** balls whatsoever they would get a list of all the members of the temple of Satan/Set from facebook and start rounding them up like veal.“

“Wonderful Anniversary dinner! The server was professional and personable and the food was delicious! Nice atmosphere in the dining room.“

“This was our first time dining at Mona Lisa, and def will return. It has a hip vibe upon entry, with some pulsing beats in the background. Our party of 6 includes hard of hearing friends, so this was a little bit of a challenge, but there was good energy in the dining room. Service was very attentive and the menu is eclectic. It is mostly Italian, with additional flair from Puerto Rico and Sushi. I am keto and a friend has a gluten allergy — not a problem. The kitchen accommodated us beautifully. My salmon with secret sauce was delish. The portions are very generous (you might have lunch for tomorrow). There were at least two birthday celebrations that night. Fun place to celebrate. Thanks for a great dinner!“

Nick Iannuccilli, the owner, took the time to visit our table, offering a warm and sincere welcome with a friendly chat. We highly recommend Iannuccilli’s Restaurant. The King is back! Thank you, Chef Nick!“

“Armando has surpassed expectations in culinary excellence, offering breathtaking squash blossoms, homemade pasta, and his restaurant's signature lasagna and calamari and burratta, an absolute extraordinary experience. So much better than the location on Federal Hill, this establishment provides a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere. The owner, Armando, from the original Bacco on Federal Hill, has outdone himself - it is imperative that you support this exceptional restaurant. “

“beautiful bright red fresh sauce, everything on the menu is incredible, and it's right in scituate!!“

“I'd like to express my deepest gratitude to the staff at Roma for providing my grandfather, Bobo, and his friends - the last remaining Italian immigrants who grew up on the Hill - with a warm and welcoming space to share stories and reminisce about the old days. The kindness and hospitality shown by Roma's staff have turned every visit into a memorable experience. By embracing my grandfather and his friends as regulars, sharing in their coffee and memories, Roma's staff have demonstrated exceptional compassion and understanding. This kindness and acceptance will never be forgotten, and we're grateful for the special place Roma holds in our hearts.“

“Best honey hot chicken sandwich i think ive ever had!!“

“Exceptional service and incredible food—I'm especially fond of their pasta!“

“Just want to say THANK YOU to everyone who helped my mom this past Saturday night, if it weren't for everyones quick response I'm not sure if my mom would be home today making a full recovery. It's a blessing she was with my niece and at the right place for something like that to happen. Once she is back to herself and off restrictions I'm sure she will be back for dinner to Thank you all in person!! Very grateful! Thank you again!“

“This place is absolute garbage. Food in never hot and if you ever walk by the open kitchen you’ll see how disgusting it is! Never again“

“Stopped in from out of town with no reservation and they quickly accommodated us with a most amazing dining experience. Daniela was an extraordinary server who while handling a large party was also able to keep check on us without any delays. Having true Italian foods that had such bold tastes made our trip more special. We would highly recommend Trattoria Romana as a must visit when you are in the New England area.“

“Gia Ristorante Italiano Hubby & I had an amazing dinner last night at Gia's in Uxbridge! It was a last minute decision to go there, but so glad we did. It was a quiet night, cold outside, but inside they had a beautiful fire roaring, smelled so good. We both had amazing meals, waitress was very helpful, answering all our questions. They even made a few changes to a dish so my husband got exactly what he wanted. We will definitely be going there again soon! Highly recommend them for a nice Italian dinner 😋“

“OMG the homemade pasta is amazing! I had ravioli Alfredo with veal, Mario had regular veal parm which the sauce was so yummy and Mom had manicotti which was as close to hers as it could be. The bread is super soft and OMG the deep fried oreos are totally worth it and should be eaten warm. We'll definitely be back for more! ???“

“No one makes a better chicken picatta. The atmosphere is family oriented, the waitstaff is attentive and works together to take care of the guests.

Kid-friendliness: Bring the little ones, it's a great place for families“

“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 !! 💯❤️“

“We had dinner here this past Friday and it was outstanding! It had been sometime since we had dined here and it looks very nice inside being updated.
