Amazingly excellent pastries. The only problem is buying and eating too many of them.

I REALLY wanted to love this bakery, but the blueberry muffin was so dry and tasteless that I had to throw it out. The croissant was okay.

Was taken here to celebrate a promotion at work. I had never heard of Celeste but was happy with…read morethe choice. I did come to this location when it was "Trio", but that was a decade or so ago. Celeste has an Iberian influenced (Spain/Portugal) menu as opposed to Trio which was Italian. For apps we had the Patatas Bravas (incredible) and the charred octopus. Being Portuguese, I know good Octopus and this was ELITE. For Entree I had the Romesco Cod (again Portuguese approved as we LOVE us some cod) My date had the Halibut which is her usual (she lives in Gansett and comes here often) I tried her dish and it was perfect! We shared the pistachio tiramisu and it was a perfect way to end an unforgettable dinner. The waitress was on point the whole dinner. I believe her name was Anastasia. They didnt have any cortados in the coffee menu, but Anastasia said she could make one for me and boy did she nail it! The location is also great. We went for a stroll on Narragansett beach ( a short walk from Celeste) after dinner and caught a beautiful sunset. I haven't posted a review in a while, but I had to share my experience. Highly recommend. Only took one photo as we were a bottle of wine in when it occurred to me that I should document the experience for Yelpers.

First trip to Celeste, but def not my last! Our server Jared was the best, as was Ali and…read moreAlessandra (I think i have the name right, but correct if I'm wrong!). We honestly couldn't have asked for better staff interaction. Everyone was friendly, personal and genuinely cared about our time there! Also hats off to the chef! Jared told us he was the best and I can agree! This was quite possibly one of the best meals I've had all year! We shared a special of the night ( goat cheese, beets, peaches and hot honey) and the salad that is set to be a new menu item. Everything was locally sourced and these dishes were a 10/10! It was hard to choose and entree so Emily C and I split the cod and the steak sirloin. The cod was to die for. The best I've ever had. The sirloin was chefs kiss and the sauce and asparagus it paired with (and potatoes too) were all out of this world! While i was already full, the dessert menu is a must. We went with a lemon dessert and oh my goodness was it to die for! Drinks were amazing too---I had a spritz and a very tasty mocktail! Ambiance both inside and outside are beautiful. Since it was a sunny summer night we sat outside, but inside is equally stunning. It is very upscale chic and so pretty! Thank you for a wonderful experience! I'll be back for the staff, especially our server David, another drink, the eggplant sandwich and more of the dessert menu! I see why Yelp raves about this new spot! It is !

If you haven't been here because you're thinking how good can it be if it's located in a holiday…read moreinn, you are seriously missing out. First of all you truly can't tell when you're in the restaurant that you're in a hotel. It feels very cozy inside. We've been here several times over the years and have never been disappointed. We went with the littles and they had the typical pasta with butter and chicken fingers. We shared their special heirloom tomato and burrata salad over arugula. So fresh. So delicious. For our entrees, hubs had the porterhouse steak and I had the ravioli Norma (eggplant). Both were beyond delicious. The porterhouse steak could literally be cut with the side of a fork. Cooked a perfect medium rare. They make all the pasta in house so obviously it's insanely delicious. The sauce couldn't have been better. Our waiter was very attentive, kept our water and wine full, kids liked him. Just a really friendly guy. Cannot recommend this place enough for locals or tourists.

I know everybody loves this restaurant but we just didn't (there were 4 of us). Here's why. First…read morelet me admit that it's a good looking restaurant and the staff were very good. We started with their focaccia and it turned out to be the very best thing we ate. I had the special pasta with chicken -- which was okay but it was so heavy that I could only eat a small portion of it. Too much cream, too much butter. Others had the salmon (said it was ok, not great) and one person had the special pork chop (said again, it was okay, not great). The menu is so limited -- that we all ordered things that weren't what we would have liked. And it was expensive. So we won't be back.

We stopped by Terminesi' for dinner the other night. I'll be honest, I had been once before during…read morethe RI Food Fights and had a meatball grinder that was not my favorite. It was so garlicky that I thought it must have been a mistake. The meatballs had whole cloves in them. I LOVE garlic but I couldn't eat the sandwich as it was overpowering. However, Wakefield is lacking in a good Italian place and I did think this may have been a mistake, so I gave it another try. It also helped that they have $.50 wings on Monday. I ordered 8 buffalo wings and rigatoni & meatballs. Well I was pleasantly surprised. The wings were excellent. I think they make their own buffalo sauce and i detected that they used butter (which is always a good thing). Not too hot but a kick. The pasta and meatballs were good. The sauce was not my favorite but that is a matter of taste. The price was a bit high but not outrageous. The service was a little slow, but I suspect that was my server as she never seemed to be on the floor, while the other 2 were very visible. All in all, a nice experience.

Elizabeth served me an incredible lunch!…read more Wasn't super hungry, and it was my first visit so I wanted to try a few things, therefore I went with three sides and an iced tea. Any guesses? Meatballs... Garden salad with ranch dressing, apparently better than the Italian And a side of broccoli. Everything was great, especially the meatballs. Their red sauce is excellent. Will return for the smash burger, and to see Elizabeth's smile. Even the music in there is good Highly recommended!

A floor heater would make a huge difference! The spicy lentil balls were phenomenal and easily my favorite part of the meal. We also had the tuna tartare, which was very fresh but unfortunately lacked flavor. I usually order tuna tartare whenever I see it, and this one really needed some seasoning or marinade. I also would have preferred a crispy wonton over the potato chips. We split the swordfish with butternut squash and sage butter, which was good, but the fish itself could have used more flavor. The Some Like It Hot spicy martini with blue cheese-stuffed olives was delicious! Our waiter was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and lively. I also love that their menu changes with the seasons. Overall, a good experience and I'd definitely go back. And absolutely get the lentil balls
