    NY steak $49
    Stefanie B.

    If you like burnt taste, this place is for you. The wine and charcuterie were absolutely fabulous, highly recommend. The NY strip tasted like charcoal. I cut the outside off and ate it because I never send my food back and hadn't eaten all day. That being said, we told them just to offer feedback and they said that's how they serve the food. I was surprised because they have decent reviews. We were so looking forward to dining here. Out of 5 dishes, 4 of them were really bad. 3 dishes were steak and completely burnt tasting, and one had swordfish that arrived as two thin slices, not even 1/2 inch. Swordfish should be thick. At $49 for a steak, it should be cooked properly and taste like a steak, not like the place it's cooked. So, go for the appetizers, skip the main course unless you like burnt taste, and some people do.

    Ambience, service & food were all excellent but especially the homemade desserts from crepes to cobblers are all so good. I guess I have a sweet tooth!

    Great time trying Bacaro for Mother's Day a few weeks back! We started with the buffalo mozzarella with arugula salad and margarita pizza to start. Both were incredible and the pizza could be my favorite. It was light and crispy with great flavor. We got an assortment of pastas for dinner to try. The shrimp pasta and bolognese were great and fam favorites. The pink baked pasta was very blue cheese forward and not our favorite since it was pretty heavy. There are so many options to try on the menu that I'd try something else next time. For dessert, we split the chocolate torte and a mango passion fruit special. The mango passion fruit dessert was a fan favorite. It was a very busy day so service was a bit slow and it took us a while to order and receive food, but we'll try again on a day that isn't a holiday. Overall looking forward to coming back!

    The recipe for a perfect meal for 2 at Bacaro: 1- pizza bianca 2- pasta con i fungi 3- crispy chicken Trust me and stick to these three + a Bacaro spritz and a margarita. Do not deviate! If you must, a grilled crispy octopus with beans app may be added. If you don't like fungus, switch to Bolognese. The ingredients are top shelf here, the prices are high, service is usually good - but the meal above is 10/10 worth it.

    7:45 PM reservation on the day before Thanksgiving. It was a late reservation as we needed to wait for family members to arrive from different parts of the country. There were only two other tables in the space during the time we were there. We dined downstairs, near the bar, our table overlooking downtown Providence. White tablecloths, incandescent lighting supplemented by candlelight, exposed wooden beams, Venetian masks hanging on the walls...the combination providing for an elegant atmosphere. There is an extensive menu which includes cocktails, birra, Venetian apperitivo, insalate, antipasta caldi, cicchetti, grilled pizza, pasta, pesce, carne, contorti, formaggi, salumeria, and, finally, dolce. We were asked to order all our food at once because everything is made to order. Both the food and service were excellent. A few examples: the creaminess of my truffled burrata polenta was memorably good; the way our server kept refilling our water glasses, attentive but not obtrusive; he even crumbed our table. The whole experience was warm, welcoming, and satisfying, a perfect way to start an extended family weekend.

    Simply fabulous!! Former Rhode Islander now living in Miami and with full confidence maybe only Sunny's steakhouse in Miami's Design District measures up to Bacaro. I come to RI once every couple of weeks and always make it a goal to get dinner here. Alex at the bar was very attentive to us. Bacaro takes the crown for delicious food!! Does it make sense to say it all feels intentional? You can feel the craft and dedication from BOH to FOH making for a lovely fabulous evening.

    The food was delicious, but the service was disappointing for the price point. The ambiance was nice, especially at night.

My friend knows much more about wine than I do, so he was the decision maker for our wine choices and we ordered a 1/2 bottle of red which we both found to be very delicious. Of course, we had to try some food too and the small bites menu was perfect with something to satisfy nearly every taste. We opted for the meat charcuterie, and it was beautifully presented with enough for the two of us to share. There is also a cheese charcuterie on the menu, but unfortunately there is not an option for a combined meat and cheese plate. We sat, sipped, and tasted for a while and never felt rushed. The atmosphere was so comfortable and we'll definitely consider going back here again.

    I didn't have the best time at Providence Wine Bar…read more This might sound a little haughty, but hear me out: I can drink wine at home. I can browse a liquor store & pick out a bottle that exactly fits my preferences, my mood, & my budget. I can bring it home & uncork the wine, checking the cork for freshness. I can pull out my special glassware & pour myself a glass of wine & enjoy it on my own couch. So why go out to a wine bar, if not for the wine? For me, it's for the ambience & the experience. Both of those things at Providence Wine Bar were lacking. The lights were too bright (overhead & fluorescent) & the music was too loud (& just bad). The employees seemed both bored & nervous, with not much to do to occupy themselves. I was one of the only people in the bar, so I felt like I was under scrutiny - I'm certain this wasn't intentional but it was unfortunately how it came across. I brought a book but couldn't focus because of the lights & the music. I even caught myself with my fingers in my ears, trying to muffle the sounds of 2010s hyper pop. I have nothing against 2010s hyperpop, it's just that there's a time & place for everything, & maybe that isn't at a wine bar at 8 PM on a Wednesday. I just wanted to be done with my glass of wine so that I could leave. All of that being said, I wish them the best. It seems like they need a good manager's touch.

Chef Ben Sukle has received many accolades including being a James Beard Finalist so I knew we were in for a treat. Everything we ordered was so fresh, had a farm-to-table vibe, and felt very intentional. 3 different dishes had 3 different types of olive oil - that's impressive! I was blown away by the Red Shrimp Quasi Crudo. They were slightly sweet, perfectly cooked with a delicate snap, and I still got some of the roasted/grilled flavor. The Raw Scallops were so simple yet so exquisite. This is a must order along with anything on their crudo menu! The Carrot & Mascarpone Anolini was such a unique pasta and was perfectly balanced and delicious. And definitely leave room for dessert because you can't leave here without trying the Wood-Roasted Basque-Style Cheesecake. It's so creamy, borderline custardy, with a beautiful char on top and the delicate blueberries and olive oil that paired so well together. They are really using their wood-fire oven to the max and I'm here for it. What an exceptional meal; highly recommend.

My pieces were tasty but a bit fatty (hard to chew). I had the eggplant ravioli which was very rich and tasty ($28) - but so heavily sauced it was hard to tell what was what. The less good parts: the cheap wood chairs are too uncomfortable to sit on very long (I moved to the banquette next to my partner). The food is overpriced. It really needed something with it - bread, potatoes, vegetables, anything. The pork came with a few bitter leaves of a salad. I have a small appetite in general - I usually take home half my food anywhere I go. I looked at the food and said "we are going to have to go to IHOP later" because it was a light snack. The only bread available cost $12. Maybe it's amazing but I just couldn't bring myself to pay $12 for bread on principle. The food took awhile to arrive. Long enough for the server to tell us she was leaving for the night and to get up and order two drinks directly from the bar myself. The servers were nice in a way that felt somewhat forced. We are finding someplace else for dessert. I really liked my espresso martini, and that was within the price range I would expect ($13).

The lamb burger was rich and flavorful but perfectly balanced by the sweet jam, soft squishy sesame bun and thin, crispy, craggly onion rings. The smoked fish dip came with crisp nori chips that were a little intense on their own for me, but perfect with a big scoop of the creamy, smoky dip.

The drinks came out quick and they were unique and delicious. We asked the waitress about the Yellowfin piri piri and found that there were two different sized orders.

The sauce and the tuna was so good we didn't leave a trace of anything on that silver platter. The Crudo was to die for! Fresh fish was amazing and the olive oil was so good it just brings it to the next level. We were were not hungry after these two dishes, but we had to try a dessert with the experience so far. We opted for the cinnamon bun ice cream sandwich. Although it was good, I expected better. The cinnamon bun was a bit dry. After the quality of the tuna and crudo, I was expecting a super soft bun with the a ton of icing dripping down. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth a visit. I will be back again.

Vannaluck talked us through the history & characteristics of cognac. We were given 3 small pours of different cognacs to taste as well as a serendipitous, bonus mini pour at the end.

The way they set up the interior of the restaurant, there are no windows, so you really feel like you are in a different place. The interior itself is beautiful and you can tell they thought through every detail. Our server was Miles and he was great. Claudine offers an eight course tasting menu, with options to "upgrade" to certain dishes along the way (think caviar, cheese, and/or wagyu). I went with the wine pairing and thought every pairing was spot on and a perfect complement to the meal (they even offer a non-alcoholic drink pairing option). The stand outs for me were the wagyu, the bean salad (never have beans been so delicious), and the dessert (the best cinnamon ice cream ever). I was there for my birthday and they even gave me a birthday card and a little mini birthday cake. Such a lovely touch! The service was five stars throughout the night. When my husband didn't like one of the dishes, chef prepared a new one, even though we swore up and down it was not necessary. I'm already dreaming of my next visit to Claudine.

The sommelier presented the bottle, which is on the prestige wine tasting list. His pairing with the artichoke was superb. Service -- 4/5 Really polished, Michelin-level service. They pushed in our chairs, folded our napkins if we stepped away, changed silverware between courses. Only opportunity was sweeping up crumbs. There was one mix-up when someone who wasn't our server brought out a quail dish. We explained we're vegan, and he immediately took it away, returned and apologized. Otherwise, service was excellent. Ambiance -- 3/5 The water views are beautiful and could make this a 4, but a rowdy terrace party gave more sports-bar vibes, and the door to the bar kept opening. Presentation -- 3.5/5 Visually stunning, with obvious precision and advanced gastronomy techniques. The uniformity of the vegetables and textures was impressive. Some courses were 5/5 showstoppers, while others were one too many strange bowls of foam--2/5. Taste -- 1/5 The food was seriously bland. We observed the vegetarian dishes were similar to the meat and seafood dishes, but with the protein removed. When you remove a salty, savory fish, you also remove everything it contributes. Something needs to be added back to execute the original composition. Price -- 2/5 At $185 per person, the vegetarian tasting menu is not justified at the same meat price. I'm happy to pay for an incredible experience, but this menu should be closer to $99-$125 WITH improved taste and care. Bottom line Aurelia has potential, but I would not currently recommend it to vegetarians or vegans unless they take our feedback seriously. The vegetables felt like supporting players in dishes designed around the meat or seafood, and didn't shine on their own. The service, wine program and technical execution are all there. But the most important part is simple, the food should taste good, especially at thar price.

    The restaurant is in an amazing location for the Water Fire next to all the vendors. The restaurant…read moreis beautiful with the smell of rustic wood that transports you to Spain with classy lamps. The staff are excellent and made your dining experience amazing for our wedding anniversary. The sangria with elderflower cava is delicious with fresh fruits. The seafood stew is a must order, the stew itself is packed with amazing flavor we ordered more grilled bread to soak it up. Every bite was delicious and I recommend to spoon the contents on to get a bite of everything. The corn croquettes is my next favorite, I really loved the inside filling and the pepper jam is a surprisingly nice touch. The seasonal toast had king trumpet mushrooms and the lemon alioli really defines the dish. The garlic shrimp has a generous amount of garlic and goes nicely with the grilled bread. It just got overshadowed by the seafood stew. The tuna crudo is very light and the ajo blanco sauce is so good and the grape nicely complemented the dish with its sweetness. The staff treated us tarta de pistachio which can be seen as a spin on Dubai chocolate. Overall an amazing experience here!

We had grilled calamari, prawns, lamb chops, lamb kabobs, fish cheeks, tomato bread and oxtail. Everything was delicious! It's fun to share and experience new dishes. We highly recommend and will be back soon. Also, the staff including our server Katherine were welcoming and so very nice! They deserve more than 5 stars.
