A HIDDEN GEM!!! Absolutely OBSESSED with this tiny diner. My fiancé and I tried this for breakfast…read morefor the first time a week ago and we were both BLOWN AWAY by how good it is that we came back for round 2 a few days later for lunch. Everything we've tried from here is a 10/10. For breakfast, I got the plate with bacon, patty sausage, eggs, and breakfast potatoes, with a side of French toast. I also got a side of hollandaise, which was SO GOOD and a huge serving (normally places are so stingy with sauces!!). My fiance got a breakfast sandwich and a side of hash browns. For lunch, my fiance got the same thing as he did before and I got a honey mustard fried chicken wrap. SO GOOD! The service is also IMMACULATE! One of the best servers we've ever had - her name is Jackie. Consider us new regulars to this establishment!!

Back for my second visit and Mae's Place was just as good as I remembered!…read more I was so impressed the first time that I had to come back. I love that they change their seasonal menu and decor throughout the year. It keeps every visit feeling fresh and fun. The staff is one of the best parts of the experience. They're friendly, genuine and honest. They recognized us when we walked in, remembered their regular customers by name and even knew many of their usual orders. That level of service is so impressive and really makes you feel welcome. I stuck with my tried-and-true favorite, the gluten-free Johnnycake with sausage, poached eggs and hollandaise. It was just as delicious as I remembered. Once again the portions were generous enough for leftovers. This time I also tried the gluten-free cinnamon roll with butter. Flavorful and delicious! (And yes, butter really does make everything better! ) I'll continue to rave about Mae's Place and can't wait to come back to try one of the gluten-free bagels or wraps next. If you're looking for a fantastic breakfast with plenty of gluten-free options and exceptional service, Mae's Place is absolutely worth a visit.

Also, my White Chowder was thin and milky (lowfat probably) and not very good. Male waiter was very nice and polite and a kind Lebanese woman came from the back to check on me. We will never return. Sorry but your food is not good despite friendly concerned staff. Clean your kitchen and your utensils better. Also, your food is overpriced and greasy overall.

Celestial Café absolutely lived up to the hype. My friend and I stopped in between lunch and dinner…read moreso it was nice and quiet, which made for such a relaxed visit. Everyone was friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. We shared the smoked pork nachos to start and wow... so flavorful. The side of cool ranch was such a delicious bonus. I ordered the gluten free fish and chips and honestly could not stop eating the fries. Perfectly salty with just the right amount of sriracha on top. So good. My friend ordered the chicken parm grinder which looked incredible and disappeared quickly. I was so full and enjoyed my delicious cocktail while my friend ordered the chocolate chip banana foster (with 2 spoons). I honestly could have drank the banana rum ice cream sauce. Thank you for a great meal and experience. I totally understand all the fabulous reviews now. I might just be back tomorrow.

The quesadillas at Gregg's are about average. I usually put some salsa or hot sauce to bring it up a notch.

This is one of those those family chain restaurants in the region that many people come back time after time.

Hotline Pizza started in 2020 taking orders exclusively through Instagram. No storefront, no sign,…read moreno walk-ins. You either knew, or you didn't. You got through in the first minute, or you weren't having any pizza. That kind of operation either collapses in six weeks or builds a following that argues about it on the internet for years. Hotline got the second outcome. They eventually opened on 211 Broadway in Providence, then shifted to 80 Frenchtown Road inside the Thirsty Beaver North Kingstown. On National Detroit Pizza Day, the RI: The Pizza State community held a meetup there. Hotline built a pizza specifically for the occasion -- the OG Detroit, one night only, not on the regular menu, not available any other way. Cup and char pepperoni, Wisconsin brick cheese, red striped in two lines across the top, Parmesan dusted over everything. You had to be in that room. The Thirsty Beaver is a lively sports bar, string lights, cold drinks, TVs running. Then the pizza arrived, and a room full of people who think seriously about this stuff went quiet for a moment. The edges tell you everything first. Detroit-style cheese goes all the way to the pan walls, where it caramelizes against the sides. That's not a side effect of the style, it's the whole point. The border (frico) on this is nearly black, crunchy, savory. The kind of thing you fight over. Wisconsin brick cheese is mild, buttery, and high-fat, and when it hits those hot pan walls it stops being cheese and becomes a dark, crunchy crust of its own. It also carries a sweet, tangy flavor that mozzarella doesn't have. The Parmesan on top added a second layer of salt and a different taste. Together they built a flavor profile that the average pizza doesn't usually offer. The cup and char roni was doing its job. Natural casing pepperoni cups and chars in the heat, crisping at the edges and trapping oil in the bowl of each piece. That pooled fat bleeds back into the cheese when you bite down. It's a little indecent. Nobody complains though. Then there's the dough. Hold a piece up to the light, and someone at the table did, because that's the kind of group this is, and you see a honeycomb structure, open and airy, like good focaccia pulled upward. The dough runs at 80% hydration or higher and is double-proofed, which creates an open, porous interior with a crackling exterior. The crust tastes buttery without any actual butter in the dough. That's what happens when someone knows what they're doing. Greg definitely knows what he's doing. The sauce was bright and herby, laid on top in stripes after the cheese. Sauce on top means the crust stays dry and the cheese anchors to the rim all the way to the last bite. It also cooks the sauce a little bit, renders it down slightly. It had enough acid and herb to cut through all that fat without flattening the taste out. The OG Detroit was a one-night pizza. It's not coming back in that form. But Hotline is at the Thirsty Beaver Thursday through Sunday, running 12 Detroit-style options, and if the OG is the standard they're working from, you should go find out what the rest of the menu tastes like. Some pizzas are worth building a night around. This one had 80 people nodding at each other in a sports bar in North Kingstown, smirking and reaching for another piece before the first one was finished all night long.

Went out for martinis on a Thursday night and, credit where it's due, the drinks were genuinely…read moredelicious. I had one regular espresso martini and two caramel espresso martinis, all excellent. The music selection throughout the night was fantastic, and the overall atmosphere was genuinely enjoyable. Between the drinks, music, and relaxed setting, I was having a great time and thoroughly enjoying the experience. Unfortunately, that pleasant atmosphere came crashing down rather quickly. My friend and I noticed several mice running around the restaurant. Not exactly something you want to see while enjoying a night out. The place was practically empty, with only four customers and the bartender present. Apparently, the mice figured they had free rein of the establishment. I understand restaurants occasionally deal with pests, but seeing MULTIPLE mice casually running around raises some serious questions about cleanliness. If they're this comfortable in the dining area, what exactly is happening in the kitchen? Needless to say, I'm incredibly glad I didn't order any food. Great martinis, excellent music, wonderful atmosphere, and apparently a thriving rodent community. Shame the mice had to ruin an otherwise fantastic evening.

We chose this place for lunch on our way back to Connecticut after visiting the Providence Zoo…read more Unfortunately, it's not somewhere we'll likely stop again. Before going, I noticed several reviews mentioning that the food lacked flavor. After eating here, I'd have to agree. We started with the Strawberry Burrata appetizer. The burrata itself was good, but the strawberries tasted like they came from a can or pie filling instead of being fresh. It's the middle of summer, so that was disappointing. The focaccia served with it was fresh, but completely unseasoned and bland. A little olive oil, herbs, or flaky salt would have made a huge difference. For our entrees, we ordered the pasta special with chicken, peppers, and "broccolini" in a garlic sauce, along with the short rib grilled cheese and garlic Parmesan chips. First, the dish didn't contain broccolini--it was regular broccoli. That's not a huge deal, but the menu should be accurate. The penne was undercooked, the red peppers tasted like they came from a can, and the broccoli seemed straight from a frozen bag. The entire dish arrived tasting like it had been reheated in a microwave rather than cooked to order. There were only a couple of other tables in the restaurant, and they had only been open for about an hour, so that was surprising. On top of that, the dish was very bland. The short rib grilled cheese was actually the highlight of the meal. The short rib was tender and flavorful, and the sandwich had a lot of potential. However, the plain focaccia made it a little dry, and it really could have used some type of sauce or spread to bring everything together. The garlic Parmesan chips were stale, bland, and also seemed pre-made. To top it off, the menu clearly advertises that kids eat free all day on Mondays, yet we were charged $8 each for our kids' penne with red sauce. This restaurant has the potential to be really good. The ingredients and menu ideas are there, but the execution falls short. Fresher ingredients, cooking food to order, more seasoning, and a little more creativity would make a world of difference.

I ordered the Ocean State of Mind which was delicious and definitely strong in the best way. I personally preferred it over ice rather than in the martini glass, but either way it's a great choice. My partner went with a Long Island Iced Tea which he also enjoyed. We both ended up ordering pasta dishes. I had the gluten free mac and cheese with grilled buffalo chicken and it was so good I had to dig in before even taking a photo. The flavors were spot on and the pasta was cooked perfectly. My partner ordered the chicken and broccoli Alfredo which looked just as good, especially with the side of toasty garlic bread. Portions were generous and we both left full with leftovers that were just as good the next day. Thank you for being such a consistently great place for us to come back to. Somehow we've even ended up in the same booth twice now, which might just have to become our spot.
