It was my first time visiting, and upon arrival, we were initially turned away by the host and informed there would be a two hour wait for walk ins due to not having a reservation. However, I noticed an empty table available at the time. Fortunately, we were able to quickly make a reservation once we stepped outside and were then seated at that same table minutes later. I hope this is not a common occurrence, as it can take away from the overall experience and initial impression. That said, our server Sydney ( Australia), was incredibly kind and attentive. She ensured we were well taken care of from start to finish, which truly elevated our visit. The food and drinks were both excellent, and overall, I had a great experience after the mishap . I would recommend this place to friends and would consider returning in the future. read more

Unfortunately there wasn't much here to redeem the experience. Food took FOREVER to come out and when it finally did, they just...forgot my husband's meal. We had to ask about it, and by that point everyone else had their food and it was too late to bother. The food we did get was mediocre. Nothing was outright terrible, but certainly nothing worth waiting that long for. Then came the check. We asked to split it and somehow this turned into an ordeal that involved the staff literally calling someone on the phone trying to figure out how to do it. After all of that, they STILL couldn't figure it out. Slow service, a completely forgotten meal, mediocre food, and a bizarre inability to split a check. Unfortunately I can't think of a reason we'd come back. read more

Absolutely loved my experience at Blackstone Herb & Martini Bar. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between upscale but casual. We got a few wings, fries, and taco flights. The flavors are unique, well-balanced, and beautifully presented. Service was fantastic and staff were knowledgable. read more

Stopped by Blackstone Herbs and Martini Bar for a casual lunch after seeing a lot of solid reviews. Overall it was a mixed experience for us. First thing to note, the service was pretty slow, which seems to line up with what others have said. We had to wave down our wait staff couple times and at points it felt like they just MIA. Not terrible, but definitely noticeable. The ambience was a highlight. Very quaint and cozy with lots of eclectic decor on the walls that actually gives you something fun to look at. The vibe felt welcoming and relaxed, kinda like a neighborhood coffee shop mixed with a casual restaurant, which we liked, haha! Pricing caught me a bit off guard. It felt on the higher side, especially for flight style portions. That said, the espresso martini flight was pretty good. The caramel and butter pecan were the standouts. The birthday cake martini was a miss though. It did not taste like birthday cake, more like a drink with a lot of sprinkles mixed in and the color started blending in towards the end. Food wise, the deviled eggs were solid. You could tell the ingredients were fresh and the mayo mustard mix gave it a nice tang. The Cajun shrimp had a light bite and was enjoyable. The bacon was honestly my favorite, great smoky flavor and cooked well. For the burger sliders, we tried the buffalo chicken, fried chicken, and meatball. The fried chicken was easily the best. Tender, crunchy, and full of flavor. The meatball was a close second and reminded me of a classic meatball sub. The buffalo chicken was the weakest of the three. The buffalo sauce was pretty mild and the chicken was not as juicy or flavorful as the fried chicken. Overall, the biggest misses were the slow service and the higher price point for the portions. Some good flavors and a nice atmosphere, but expectations should be set accordingly. read more

Food/Drinks: Blackstone has a variety of flights. I truly love this idea, and I'm glad that they do this. The drinks are pretty strong and very aesthetic, which made it 10 times better, and they have a variety of not only drink flights but food flights as well. I got the loaded fries, and it came with so much that I shared it with my husband, and honestly, we both got our own things and regretted it because we could've definitely shared one food flight. I was very surprised with how much they served. My friend got the mac & cheese flights, and he said it was very good. Location: This location is pretty casual and perfect to go with friends and family. Honestly, a great place for a group of people to just hang out and enjoy flights together. This would also be a great place to go on a first date. It's pretty casual and has different types of seating as well. They do have parking as it is located in a plaza. Service: Our server was amazing. She got everything we needed and continuously checked up on us. I will definitely return to this location in the future ! read more

This is now my favorite spot. So cute, clean and tucked away right off new London tkpe in Coventry. I'm so happy my sister mentioned this place (she saw it online and we could not resist) the girls working were friendly and helped us with the menu because we couldn't decide what to have, it all sounded so delicious.. and holy moly.. it was !!! We will be coming back here soon.. Mondays you can mix and match flights!!! Ahhh read more

2 of our party of 4 were there at 4:50 today, Sunday Sept. 20. After waiting 15 minutes to place our order it Took over 25 minutes for drinks. When the other 2 arrived we ordered their espresso martini flights and food. We ordered 2 slider flights and 2 cheese wheels. We asked for our check at 6:30 and we still had not gotten the cheese wheels! I don't know what was going on with service and the kitchen but whatever it was wasn't good. read more

This place has more flights than La Guardia and I'll definitely be returning to try as many as we can. I played it conservative today with a deviled eggs flight and bacon double smashburger. The deviled eggs were some of the best I've ever had and tasted incredible. The smashburger comes with cheddar but I opted for American cheese and wasn't disappointed. I thought it was pretty tasty and they did not skimp on the bacon. read more

Cool concept with the flights of food, but not executed well. The restaurant itself is laid out nice with a bar and a large seating area out front, and a smaller section in the back with cute decorations, a small pool table, and comfy seating. But unfortunately the ambiance is the best part about this place. The service was friendly and really helpful at explaining the menu, since you buy flights of food. And Monday is a special day where you can mix-and-match 3 items from different categories i.e. you can have an item from the mac and cheese flight, with one from the fries flight, and one from the egg roll flight. They also were out of a lot of ingredients, which really limited what we could choose on the menu. Don't know if this is a regular occurrence. The food took FOREVER to come out, and we resorted to crackers and dip we had in our car to stave off the hunger. I ordered baked Mac and cheese, an impossible burger, and loaded fries. The food itself was good, and I liked the loaded fries the best, since the fries were nice and crispy. My friend, however, was sorely disappointed by the tiny taco that came with his flight. This taco, priced at $5.50, could within in the palm of my hand... My friend mentioned he went here a couple months ago the decorations were completely different, so I wonder if the management had changed and they were still getting organized. I also don't quite get how the menu is setup- they advertise flights of food, but outside of Monday's mix-and-match special, you can only pick three items from a specific category. But do people really want to order three different types of fries or Mac and cheese? I know I don't. read more

Very great atmosphere. It's like in a very weird little plaza but I like it. The service is good you can really sit anywhere you'd like, unless they're really busy My only problem is the prices. They are a bit expensive for some of the things that you can get especially the wings. I don't think that they are worth that. If you're here for a small little drink, and a quick snack, I would recommend getting the flight of fries because it is so worth it with the waffle fries My friend who ordered the tacos and wings, said that they were underwhelmed with the flavor, and how much it filled them for the price read more

Slider flight was amazing, my favorite was the cheeseburger with the caramelized onion Egg roll flight was pretty good, we lucked out having the thanksgiving egg roll as a special. I will definitely be inspired to make my own with thanksgiving leftovers this season. Loaded waffle fries were everything a loaded fry should be. I really loved the matcha flight, but I wished it had a stronger matcha flavor and in the future might request an extra scoop or so. They use fresh fruit which is really good but has a lot of seeds. I bet if you get a full matcha it's a little stronger as well. This was a really good place for someone like me who can't eat a lot, because you can try a little bit of everything! I have been twice now and both times the server was attentive and helpful when explaining the menu. There's a cafe right when you walk in, and a bigger dining area between the cafe and kitchen. They have a new providence location that is on my list to check out! read more

Fun place to meet friends for drinks and to share a bunch of flights! I've enjoyed the margarita flights and the martini flights, both were good. For food we have had the fries, sliders, tacos, and Mac and cheese...all of which were good! Inside the restaurant is cute with comfortable bench with pillows at our table. I like the eclectic variety of glasses and plates that they serve the food on. The outdoor dining area isn't great, as it was just tables on the front sidewalk. read more

Our server was really nice, could have checked a little more towards end but no biggie. We ordered the deviled egg flights (regular, bacon, and Doritos), burger sliders (cheeseburger, chicken, buffalo chicken), and the fries (poutine, cheese, and mushroom). The deviled egg flights were meh. Not great but not terrible (I absolutely love deviled eggs and make them often so it wasn't my fav). The chicken sliders (both buffalo and regular) were pretty good! We could have gone without the burger. The fries were fire! Super good. Lastly, we got the cheesecake flight for dessert..... not the move. It's not a traditional cheesecake. It's just cheesecake filling in a cup with whip cream and artificial flavor on top. Our server took that off for us which was pretty nice. Cool concept overall but the food we got was mid. I would try other things like the egg rolls or pasta flights which looked pretty good! read more

After walking in, I almost walked out. Very confusing - no one there to greet you or offer direction. The setup is a very weird concept.. When we finally figured out that it's seat yourself... We went to the first table we saw. The table was dirty, and the waitress came over and started wiping it, with us sitting there, which was very awkward. When our regular waitress came over, she was very pleasant. She explained that everything was in flights of three... Food came out rather quickly, The only complaint I would have was my guests.Food came out a while before mine did, and it was awkward.Sitting there with nothing in front of me. I encouraged my guest to eat so his food would not get cold. Drinks were tasty but pricey for the size Things were a bit cluttered where we were sitting, I'm not sure what was on the floor in the bathroom, but it didn't look good.... I would definitely try it again, but perhaps on a slower night read more

The best outing for indecisive people (like me). Food flights might be the best thing to happen to me. A high energy space with fun and upbeat staff, serving up some classics in a creative way. What's not to love? The wing and espresso martini flights are my go-tos. I really love their buffalo wings and dark espresso martini. Great for nights out with friends who love to share and hate to choose! read more

The food here is delicious. Last night we got a flight of French fries as an appetizer. We chose the parmesan truffle, buffalo chicken, and loaded. They were very very good. The fries they have are like the battered ones. We also got the egg rolls, we order 2x the cheese steak ones and the Thanksgiving one. Again, delicious. I love how crispy the outside is. And I like how they cut them in half it makes it easier to share. Finally our last flight was sliders, I got the fried chicken and the cheeseburger. I definitely recommend those ones. It's so fun to get to try different kinds of foods. But I was also filled up. For our drinks we each got one of the specialty ones. This was quite the treat. We went on Wednesday night to participate in the musical bingo. I would say it wasn't too crowded but it was helpful to have reserved our spot. I adore the decorations here, there are plants all over the place. Bingo was fun but not really a highlight. Sorry- I forgot to take pictures of the food! 1 star off for it being just a tad pricey here. read more

Came in for ladies night. We were 20 minutes late for our reservation due to some issues with our Uber. They held the table anyway. The decor is super cute. The menu is flights only. You can't get individual anything. We started with margaritas and martinis. I got the margaritas and chips options. The salsa and guacamole were amazing! The wings come in 8 to a flavor and you have to get 3 flavors. The nachos were also solid portions of the chips a little light on the meat but well flavored. The eggrolls looked good too. Both of the taco flights were delightful. Then we moved on to espresso martini flights and finally a full size martini to finish. The staff was super nice and everything tasted amazing! The final bill was $306. A little bit expensive but not crazy. It would be nice if they'd allow you to get single items. We didn't need 24 wings. I might have liked to do a taco and fries and an egg roll for example. read more

Ok... so I've been waiting to get here for a bit. We came after a day of SUP in Narragansett. Ok the bad... we were hoping for the food flights, but to our dismay it's only Tuesday- Saturday after 5. Ok the amazing!!!! We got Latte flights... we don't drink, but they also have alcoholic flights too! The 2 sandwiches we so delicious and super fresh. They try to chat with each guest and Rico came over and told us all things Blackstone. He was great and we will definitely be back so we can try the good flights too! read more

The ambience here is definitely top-notch. It's very cool place. They offer CBD in their coffee. Came one morning for a latte for light and a sausage, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich. Came back another night with some friends and got some mix and match flights. The quality of the food ranges. The breakfast sandwich was really good, the sliders were great. The tacos were aesthetically pleasing, but the flavor was not there. My friend and I got the chicken Tinga tacos and they were not good. The natural flights are OK, but they use process canned cheese, which really takes it down a notch. The French fly flights are good. In my opinion, the food is OK so it's definitely over priced. It's a cool place to check out, if I went back, I would try some of the drink flights, but I don't know if I would come back for the food. read more

Made a reservation for 11 - was asked to put down a $75 deposit. Makes sense, protects the restaurant. Brought 11 people to restaurant and when bill was presented the previously paid $75 was not listed. Asked if the $75 deposit will be refunded to card and/or applied to the bill. Was told, oh no that $75 was to reserve the table. So I paid $75 as a "deposit" to allow you to accept the 11 people I brought to your establishment for my daughter's graduation??? No thank you! Fair warning: don't try to bring this restaurant business bc they will charge you to do so. read more

Went Thursday night for Ladies Martini night. Sydney was our waitress. She was attentive and personable. Took time to really explain the menu, how to select flights, where to find things on the menu. She alone was 5 star. Th martini options were so good hard to choose 3 to try in the flight. Will be going back to try more. Wish we had gone with bigger appetites after having the bruschetta flight. The ingredients they paired together created an awesome flavor in your mouth. Can't wait to go back to see Sydney and try a bigger assortment of food selections. read more

Such a great spot! I tried several of their flights (such a fun idea) and loved every one. All the egg rolls were delicious, the sliders were fantastic, and the whole place has a beautiful atmosphere. There was only one server covering the entire restaurant, but she was friendly, accommodating, and had great recommendations. I just wish I could have stayed longer - definitely planning to come back for happy hour next time! read more

I'm obsessed with this hidden little gem in Coventry! I have honestly driven by this place a million times never knew there was such good food and drink greatness here. Came on a Tuesday night after soccer. It was Taco Tuesday (shock face) so we sit at the bar ( there's some cute tables as well but it wasn't busy and close to closing so we chose the bar). The atmosphere here is so relaxed and chill I loved it. Bartender was great she explained the menu to us and gave us time to attempt to pick what we wanted (we wanted everything) plus most items on the item come in threes. The food comes out so fast but they don't skimp on quality! We got the watermelon, strawberry, and classic margaritas (AMAZING). Ordered the carnitas, ground beef, and shrimp tacos absolutely freaking delicious! I got a strawberry & goat cheese bruschetta I now know what bliss taste like. And we ordered nachos and steak & cheese egg rolls I am obsessed! To say we will be back is an understatement we have already planned to come back for Friday Karaoke and more Taco Tuesdays!!! Because you can't just come here once and you want to try everything on this incredible menu!! Did I mention they have margarita AND mimosa flights?!! Just come here NOW!!! read more

The food was so good i went twice in one week! The food and drinks are really good here, and not terribly priced. However, even though the flights concept is a GREAT idea, it is just poorly executed. They are very obviously understaffed, food takes foreverrrrr to come out, and there is no guidance when you walk in the door as it is a CBD shop/coffee shop/bar/restaurant, and its a seat yourself. It gets very chaotic in this place because for all their services the place is extremely small and for the size of the plates/flights, the tables are super small. Even though this place has poor functionality, everyone was nice and id still come back because the food was really good. Hope they open more locations! read more

I've been here twice and the experiences couldn't have been more different. First time was early 5:00 pm ish, wonderful service all orders we served quickly and correct, drink flights were delicious. Second time was later 7:30 ish, it was busy. It was very under staffed. Bartender was frantically making drink, mostly flights! One portion of our order was forgotten and when it arrived they had forgotten to cook it! But it looked beautiful. That being said, it's such a fun concept. Food that was correct was very tasty, drink flight were delicious and staff was friendly. It's such a cute place with a variety of different seating and decor. There's also plenty of parking. I definitely will return, but early in the evening, it's such a fun concept and the food and drinks were really good. read more

Pretty confused after visiting here with friends. This place came pretty highly recommended so we made the hour long drive very excited. Apparently they don't do food flights on Mondays, but that wasn't stated anywhere on their website. So we were immediately let down upon entering. Then they were out of EVERY THING! They only had one bread option (bagels), no spinach, no Prosecco for mimosas, no Triple Sec for margaritas, the list went on. We paid for food and drinks BEFORE we were told of what they were out of so they came to tell us all that was available was lettuce instead of spinach (for a spinach artichoke sandwich) and Espresso Martinis. No offer to comp food or drinks or anything. The prices are absurd to be met with this kind of disappointment. But the real kicker for me was the dripping ceiling vent, the unfinished seating, and the holes in the ceiling. If you're not ready to open your business then maybe just don't do it yet. Close down and take some time to figure it out because to pay $65 for lunch here is incredibly absurd. I don't even think I'd be willing to come back and give it another try when they have ingredients and food flights. read more

I had higher hopes for this spot because of their social media presence, but once seated at the bar it was very lackluster. The service was okay, the wait times were long for a party of two, and the food was just okay. It took 40 minutes for two flights of snacks- they got our orders wrong in the meantime. While they did try to make it right, it still ended up taking more time for that and by then we had had enough- it just wasn't gonna work. They did comp us for the full sized drinks we ordered but honestly, those weren't great either. I feel like maybe they're trying to do too much. We'll try the new location in EG just to compare but probably that was our last visit in Coventry. Better luck next time. read more
