Heading home from a stop in East Providence, always wanted to try this restaurant since I was…read moreunable to get to Eli's Kitchen when it was open. Anyways, enjoyed my lunch. Ordered the clam chowder which was very good. It leans towards a Rhode Island Chowder, which I prefer vs. the creamy New England Chowder. Nice flavor, and the dice chourico was visible . I only found it a bit salty and it was served with a Portuguese roll. I also ordered the Cacoila sandwich which was also served with on a Portuguese roll and I opted for the seasoned fries which were very tasty. The pork was tender and flavorful, but again a bit salty for me. I don't use a lot of salt and my tolerance and taste of salt is low. Otherwise the sandwich & chowder had some nice flavors.

I am typically never in the Bristol area but have found my new favorite brunch spot and will…read morecertainly be back more often! This is a unique European cafe in the cutest part of Bristol, on a fun busy street near other local shops. Everything I tried on the menu was absolutely amazing! I got an iced pumpkin latte and it was a perfect boost to my morning with a subtle and smooth pumpkin flavor just in time for fall. The Pear Pancake special was perfect for sharing and was sweet and delicate. The service was quick and friendly. I'll be back again this weekend! The decor is bright and fresh, a wonderful spot for a sit down or grab n go.

Discovered Basil & Bunny at Rhode Island VegFest and they absolutely lived up to the hype. With a…read more4.9 rating on Google, expectations were high and they delivered. They had cookies and tarts that looked incredible (definitely going back to try those ), but we went for the classic vegan hot dog and it was so satisfying. Super flavorful, generously loaded with sauces, and that perfect crunch in every bite. It had that nostalgic street-food feel while being completely plant-based. After trying them at the fest, we're definitely planning a visit to their restaurant to explore more of the menu. Highly recommend if you're in Rhode Island and looking for creative, delicious plant-based food. We shared a full reel of our experience on Instagram at @bostonvegeats -- check it out for a closer look at that hot dog crunch https://www.instagram.com/bostonvegeats?igsh=a2Ywa3BlZ3luN281&utm_source=qr

If you're looking for a plant based spot with flavor, variety, and outside dinning, come here!!!!…read moreWe came from providence where the options for plant based restaurants are extremely limited. This place did not disappoint! 10/10 recommend. It is an order at the counter and choose your own seat style, which I like. We had the crunch wrap, Nashville hot chick'n sando, fried pickles, fries, and fire cracker wings. Everything was seasoned, fresh, and delicious!!! Even their sauces were amazing! The garlic aoli was the best!! Support this local business. You won't be disappointed!! We will be back. And the service was great! Friendly staff! We were too full to try dessert but the selection looked delish!

While visiting friends in Warren, we decided to stop at Chomp for a late lunch. Seated outside on…read morethe deck, we got to enjoy the view and some great weather. After selecting from the reasonably diverse beer menu, I ordered pesto calamari and others ordered street corn Brussels sprouts and a K-pop chicken sandwich. The sandwich was a big bun with a huge piece of fried chicken, gochu bang bang sauce, and a ginger sesame slaw. Not my sandwich, but I did sample a chunk of the chicken, which was beautifully seasoned and not over cooked. The Brussels sprouts were well seasoned and decorated with corn, avocado, queso, and a little too much quinoa for my taste. My pesto calamari was delicious. The calamari was cooked well and it was a great change from the tomato based dips that typically accompany calamari. The aioli worked very well with the addition of capers and a squeeze of lemon. Our friends had not been there previously, but it's definitely on their rotation now.

Easily some of the best smash burgers you'll ever have…read more I usually stick to simple smashed burgers, and Chomp nails it every time. The patties are perfectly cooked, the flavor is on point, and the challah buns are seriously next level, they hold everything together without getting soggy or falling apart, even with a juicy burger. I also tried the Hot Honey Alabama Chicken Sandwich (that's the one I believe it's called), and it was delicious. Great balance of sweet heat and crunch, and just like the burgers, it holds together really well without falling apart. They've also got a bunch of creative flavor combos if you want to branch out, but I keep coming back to the classics. Service is usually solid when I dine in, and takeout is just as good. Highly recommend Chomp if you're in the area.

My husband, friends, and I ventured across Narragansett Bay to Bristol for lunch. We weren't sure…read morewhere we would end up but we found this legendary saloon and decided to give it a try. Our server Sonny cheerfully greeted us, made food and drink recommendations, listened and catered to our allergies, and took our orders quickly and accurately. She went above and beyond to make sure my shellfish allergy could be accommodated by speaking with the kitchen staff and calling the owner. I was happy to hear that the smash burger and French fries were safe for my to eat, and they did not disappoint!!! I ordered a painkiller that was insanely reminiscent of the painkillers at The Soggy Dollar in the BVI. Highly recommend it! This place has many cool historical features that contribute to its charm. If you're in the area, check them out!

At first I really liked this place and probably would've left a five stars-- before I explain more,…read moreI do still think it's worth popping by for a casual bite. The burger I ordered (bacon cheeseburger with no bacon) was delicious. No complaints there and I will probably reorder. The only problem here was that I asked for sweet potato fries instead of regular fries, to which the waiter simply said okay. Turns out it was an undisclosed upcharge. Not only did he not tell me it would be $2.75 (or something like that) more, but the fries are listed as the same price online. When I told him that, he said that their online menu is really old (this is to say, don't look at it! and also, not sure why they wouldn't update it if they know it's incorrect). Sure enough, the printed menu also said nothing about an upcharge for a different fry, so ultimately I was able to remove the charge, but it was a little awkward and frustrating. My only other complaint is not particularly the fault of the restaurant, but I suppose just a side effect of the laidback vibes. A group of 7 or 8 people came in like 20 minutes after us and was so loud that I almost suggested we leave. My guess is they were drunk, but it was a Wednesday night around 6:00, so I wouldn't have expected that. They were so loud that I was yelling to my friend who was within arm's length. Totally changed the vibe and enjoyment for me.

The menu said the burger is 11.99 and comes with cheese, but it was rung up as 13.99 plus 50 cents for cheese. (This is the case with both the online menu and the IRL menu.) They have a few games going on the TVs. There's a pool table in the back as well. Service was slow (I think they might be understaffed?) but the waitress was very friendly!

It makes a cold day even better if you get to sit by the fireplace. Food is wonderful.

Lots of Pub favorites but the meatloaf is great. Add a pint of Guinness and it is a great day!

Sad to say, but Aidan's has jumped the shark. On a recent visit it felt like the owners have thrown…read morein the towel and given up. We used to be huge fans and the good was great. Not anymore. We've read of problems they've been having with the township and unfortunately it shows in the good. A Caesar salad was a plate of wilted bits of iceberg lettuce, a few croutons, a sprinkling of powdered Parmesan cheese - and that was it. No tomatoes.It was the quality you'd expect on an airplane. The turkey club used to be amazing. Now it was just OK. Still real sliced turkey breast but old and dry instead of rich and savory. There's a long list of draft beers on line. When asked the waitress said the only draft beer available was Harp. Literally one draft beer out of over a dozen on the menu. We'll sorely miss the old Aidan's, and hope a new owner might come along.

After randomly finding this barbecue spot on our way to exchange a highchair, we had no idea we…read morewere about to have one of the best meals of our lives. We started with a half order of nachos topped with the most flavorful pulled pork I've ever had. My wife and I literally couldn't stop eating. The fresh jalapeños added just the right kick, perfectly balanced by the sweetness of the barbecue sauce, and the house-made chips stayed crisp the whole time--no sogginess, just done right. Every detail was intentional, and you could taste it. Then came the dry rub chicken wings--perfectly cooked with a juicy center and a crisp exterior. The subtle honey sriracha flavor layered in beautifully without overpowering the chicken. To finish, we had the baby back ribs over coconut rice. The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, the rice was cooked perfectly with just the right hint of sweetness, and the shaved Brussels sprouts with pickled onions and jalapeños added the perfect crunch and contrast. I genuinely couldn't stop eating. The service matched the food. Our waitress guided us with spot-on recommendations, and I must have told her six times that this was the best meal I've ever had. By the time we left, we felt like we had just been welcomed into someone's home. I loved the atmosphere inside and out. I only wish I had the chance to meet the owner to say this in person--the attention to detail, the energy, and the care put into this place are undeniable. Thank you for the best meal I've had in 37 years. Seriously.
