    Back room dining
    Mike F.

    Ok first impression is this is a restaurant!! There is definitely no outside signage or very little to make it noticeable. The restaurant is need of some updating - kind of dingy as you walk in. The server was extremely nice and totally on her game. The chicken was good and the fries were awesome- hand cut. The gravy on the macaroni was a bit bland but I was there for the chicken anyway. The menu is huge so there are other things I would try. However the ambiance in the restaurant needs some work. At least play some music! Overall if you are hungry I'd say give it a try.

    Came here before a show at the Stadium Theatre. The place itself is a bit outdated but I'm sure people go there for the food. We all opted for the family style chicken dinner - at $12/pp it's a pretty cheap deal. They do have a full menu but looks like everyone in the place was having the chicken dinner. The family meal includes fried chicken, pasta with red sauce, salad, bread rolls and fries/wedges. Fried chicken was cooked well and was crispy but could use more seasonings. Pasta was meh - sauce wasn't that great. Salad was iceberg (not my fave) with some sort of Italian dressing, bread rolls were nice and warm but nothing special, fries looked hand cut - nice and crispy. Service was great - our waitress was very sweet, friendly and very attentive. She's the reason for the extra star in the review. All in all it wasn't terrible, but I wouldn't rush back here for chicken dinners anytime soon as there are other options in the state.

    Ye Olde English Fish & Chips is one of those places that knows exactly what it is and doesn't try…read moreto be anything else. There are no trendy menus, no upscale atmosphere, and no attempts to reinvent fish and chips. Honestly, that's part of its charm. I've been coming here for years, and I have to admit that I am probably the least adventurous customer they have. Every time I visit, I order the same thing: fish and chips and a cup of white clam chowder. When something works, why mess with it? The fish is always crispy without being overly greasy, despite what some reviews might lead you to believe. The portions are generous, and the fries have always reminded me a little of the fries served at Wright's Farm. I'm not sure exactly why, but every time I eat them, that's the comparison that comes to mind. The clam chowder is also very good. As a lifelong Rhode Islander, I'm firmly in the white chowder camp, and theirs is done right. It's flavorful, satisfying, and pairs perfectly with the fish and chips. The setup is simple. You order at the counter when you walk in, they give you your number, and you grab a seat in the dining room while you wait for your food. It's efficient, straightforward, and keeps things moving. The staff has always been friendly, and I've never had an issue with service. Another plus is the value. The prices are very reasonable, especially these days when it feels like every restaurant meal costs twice what it did a few years ago. You get plenty of food for your money, and I've never walked away feeling disappointed. Parking is easy thanks to the large lot, which is a small thing that becomes a big thing when you're hungry and just want to get inside without circling the block looking for a spot. We usually stop in every few weeks, and that's probably the best endorsement I can give. If a restaurant keeps earning repeat visits year after year, they're doing something right. This isn't a destination for fine dining, and it isn't trying to be. It's a comfortable, reliable spot serving good fish and chips at fair prices with friendly people behind the counter. Sometimes that's exactly what you're looking for. Four stars.

    It had been a while since I checked out this RI staple but I've been wanting some fried seafood and…read morefigured that today would be the day. When I arrived, around 3pm I was one of only 2 tables there. It's counter service and the teenagers taking my order were respectful but not overly kind. They didn't tell me I needed to wait for my order as they wouldn't call it out. But, I digress. The restaurant itself is small but clean. Dated in a cute way. You can tell they've been in business for a long time and that's not necessarily a bad thing. I had seen online that they had a scallop and shrimp plate but that wasn't offered today so I settled for shrimp and fish along with a cup of chowder. All this and a bottle of soda cost $40. Not an amazing price but I thought it was reasonable as a treat. My food came out quickly and I started with the seafood chowder. This chowder is amazing. Very creamy, decadent, and full of fish. I can not recommend it enough. The shrimp were also delicious. They were fried very well and moist. Not greasy at all. I recommend those as well. I have conflicting thoughts on the fish. On one hand I know that the English preparation is a heavy batter. I'm okay with that. But this batter was borderline soggy. No crisp to it whatsoever and the fish inside was completely lost to the breading. Which was honestly too bad because the fish itself was nice and flaky. Do I recommend Ye Olde Fish and Chips? Sure. I like supporting small business and I in they add a lot to the area. Would I get the fish again? No. But I will be first in line for the scallop and shrimp plate if it ever comes back to the menu!

    Ciro's is great! The atmosphere feels like an English Pub, and it has a great bar. We were here for…read moredinner and we've also enjoyed food and drinks outside on the lovely patio during warmer weather. We made a reservation and our party of four was seated immediately. We loved our cozy corner table. Service was great and our drinks arrived quickly after we ordered. For food, we started with the pepperoni flatbread and the pretzels with queso & mustard. They were both very good and I especially liked the queso. Our entrees were steak tips, buffalo chicken risotto, penne with vodka sauce & grilled chicken, and steak tips with mashed potatoes and vegetables. They were all served nice and hot, the portions were a great size, and they were all delicious. We opted for dessert and got the carrot cake and a chocolate martini. Yum and Yum!!!! During our dinner, the manager visited each table to ask how things were going, which was a really nice touch. We're really glad we chose Ciro's. Everything was great and we hope to return soon!

    I am extremely disappointed with my experience at Ciro's and will not be returning…read more From the moment we walked in, the restaurant appeared unprofessional. Staff members were eating in the hallway near the entrance where customers walk in, which is not something guests should have to see. Employees should be taking breaks in a designated area away from the public. To make matters worse, the bartender was openly vaping while working. That is completely inappropriate and unacceptable in a restaurant setting. The cleanliness of the restaurant was also a major concern. The overall appearance was sloppy and unkempt, making it feel unsanitary. Finally, we ordered the Buffalo chicken nachos, and they were incredibly disappointing. They were poorly prepared, skimpy on toppings, and looked like very little care went into making them. Overall, this was one of the most disappointing dining experiences I've had. I expected much better and cannot recommend this restaurant.
