We had such an amazing time here! It is the perfect cozy, warm spot for a romantic dinner or a family meal. The family-owned charm is evident, and the service was so attentive and friendly. The pasta was incredibly fresh and full of flavor. Definitely worth checking out for authentic Italian food in Rhode Island! The ... portion sizes are decent for the prices. They have a smLl but good kids menu. Their trivia nights are fun with a full bar. The whole place has a very warm festive spirit with their thoughtfully done decorations all around. We visited on a Tuesday, and though they have plenty of parking, it was getting filled up quickly. The entrance is accessible via the ramp. Read More
This place is amazing! Such GOOD food with generous servings at an affordable price! Best dirty martini I’ve ever had! Our waiter Jimmy was the absolute legend. Highly recommend and can’t wait to return! Even their garnishes were noticeably FRESH and crisp. My husband got the egg plant parm and we appreciate how fresh ... the produce was. I’d give 6 stars if I could! Read More
Came here on MLK day. Wasn’t packed, easy seating. Atmosphere was great! Ordered clams and mozzarella sticks as apps. Had the Frute del Mare and Fisherman’s baked stuffed lobster as entrees and tasted amazing! Had a pitcher of sangria and the cookie sundae which hit the spot! Hannah was a great server, very upbeat, ... helpful and welcoming! Would def come back here again! Read More
Such a great restaurant! I can't remember how many years ago my dad took me. I happened to be in the area with my daughter tonight and decided to stop. It all starts when you walk through the door. The staff that greeted and seated us were very friendly. The decor, and flowers throughout the restaurant really added to ... the ambiance. Lots of great Italian and seafood choices on the menu. Our waitress Malia was great! She promptly took our drink order, we both got Shirley Temples and brought us bread with soft butter. My youngest daughters eyes lit up when she saw they had steamers as an appetizer. The menu stated they came in fresh daily. We decided to get a couple of pounds. They were some of the best steamers that we have had. I grew up around the ocean and have been eating steamers for over 40 years and these were right up there with the best I have had. My daughter got a delicious plate of Fettuccine Alfredo. I had the Baked Seafood Platter. This had two jumbo stuffed shrimp. At least four large sea scallops, scrod and a stuffed quohog in the middle. The stuffing was a Ritz cracker base with lemon. All of the seafood was moist and cooked perfectly! As a cook, I was impressed. They give you melted butter and lemon wedges if you want to drizzle it over the plate. I did, it was delicious! I thought the overall cost was extremely fair for today's standards. I highly recommend going here! Can't wait to go back! Read More
