Gluten free chicken bacon ranch pizza
Camille C.

Very good gluten free pizza crust! It's cauliflower based and I got the chicken bacon ranch pizza. It was so good I forgot to take a photo until after I ate half of it

Jason B.

Had been meaning to try them for a while, but I don't like going to the city that much due to parking and other assorted headaches. But, I was at Freeplay a couple blocks away, as I made the trek over. A decent pizza, probably overpriced for what you get. Light on the sauce, but I'm still going to give them a positive review overall.

Chicken pesto
Kim S.

It met our needs, we were touring JWU and looking for a quick lunch. I had the eggplant Parmesan sandwich and my daughter had the chicken pesto sandwich. They were large sandwiches, so we both left full! It's a casual atmosphere and you clean off your table before you leave. Staff were friendly.

Their food is tasty and the order is always accurate. They have outdoor seating and space in the restaurant. The service is quiet and friendly staff!

The bad, bad Margherita Personal pizza that was delivered cold
Ellie B.

The Margherita pizza I ordered was some bizarre salty concoction of what this pizza is supposed to be. See photo attached. It was also delivered cold and the business has done nothing to rectify the situation.

Pepperoni pizza and fries.which was amazing
Joshua E.

The food is absolutely amazing. The ambiance is great, service was amazing. The employees were kind, friendly, helpful, and loved on our pup outside. They even got our dog a bowl for water for her to drink outside while we ate at the outside patio. We enjoyed our time here everything we got tasted amazing. The chicken alfredo was delicious. The grilled chicken salad was awesome, the pizza outstanding. if you're in Providence, Rhode Island, you have to check out Down City Pizza and sandwiches it is worth it

Turkey sub
Surrie J.

Fantastic subs and great vibes! Perfect late night dinner after a show at the performing arts center down the street.

Four Cheese Pizza...sorry, we dug in before we got the before picture! It was soooooo good!
Amber M.

Pizza, cheese bread and desserts were so good, we went three days in a row! The pizza crust and sauce were fantastic. Staff was super friendly!

Facade
Alan B.

The service was fast and friendly here, I left with a very positive impression from that perspective. Our pizza was hot and right out of the over, certainly a good start. I just wish we liked the pizza more. One of our three ingredients was barely evident on the pizza, there were only a few mushrooms, and they were barely cooked. We also found the pizza to be doughy and chewy, which didn't appeal to us. And our pizza was supposed to be half mushroom and half meat, and that wasn't done correctly. The result wasn't good, nor was it terrible. So we thought this visit merited 3 a three-star rating.

Cesar salad
Johanna G.

I ordered for lunch on DoorDash for pickup. The restaurant had seating available and the cashier was nice. The Ceasar salad was so so good. The gyro was just ok - the chicken was lacking flavor and was a bit dry. The fries were really good though. Overall, should have probably tried something different as sandwiches and pizzas are their specialty. I would return and recommend.

XL pepperoni pizza
Andrew S.

Ordered from Ubereats. XL pepperoni and a spinach and cheese calzone. I was exhausted from work and just wanted a pizza. Did not expect it to be this good. Best pizza I've had since I was in Brooklyn a few months ago. If you like crispy NY pies, this is it. I like a crispy undercarriage but it was a tad burnt tbh, but overall so good I didn't care. Just a legit pie, well made with quality parts. Only other complaint was the XL looked like a large. I supposed they listed the inches but I didn't have my tape measure handy. The calzone was great, simple and well done. Haven't written a review in years but had to drop a 5 on this place bc it's criminally underrated on this app.

This pizza spot absolutely delivered! We ordered half clam chowder pizza and half meat lovers, and…read moreboth sides were packed with flavor. The crust had that perfect wood-fired char -- crispy on the outside, soft and chewy inside, with just the right amount of crunch around the edges. The clam chowder side was such a Rhode Island/New England experience. Creamy, savory, loaded with seafood flavor, and topped with fresh herbs and potatoes that gave true chowder vibes in pizza form. Honestly, you can't come to Providence and not try chowder in every form possible! The meat lovers side was bold, hearty, and stacked with toppings. Pepperoni curled perfectly at the edges, sausage was flavorful, and every bite had the perfect balance of sauce, cheese, and smoky meat flavor. The atmosphere was relaxed, modern, and perfect for casual dining with friends or family. Great food, great vibe, and definitely a spot worth revisiting while in Providence.

So we got some greens, some chicken wings and a pizza and it was filling and yummy. Our server was really friendly and chatty. Around 3-4pm there was almost no one in the restaurant, which made it relaxing and peaceful. This place can get very loud and busy during peak times. Great pizza, excellent wings, great service.

Unfortunately, I was very dissapointed in the large Margherita pie I ordered this time around. The dough was brittle, the cheese didn't taste all that fresh and the rest of the ingredients (sauce and spices) were just OK. It's always dissapointing when a restaurant lacks consistency and leaves you wondering what happened? Is it the cook at certain shifts, carelessness, different quality products? I don't know, but this place may be worth a try if they could output the product I had during my first visit. The pizza was dissapointing, but the wings were good. It tasted fresh, very crispy and hit the spot. The wings definitely saved the overall meal which is why I gave them a 3 overall, but the pizza was like a 2. The other stuff - I called in and was put on a long hold. The employee I spoke to was a apologetic about the wait and was overall pleasant. I've been inside this restaurant and it's quite small, so taking out may be a better option. -ODL Connect with me! IG & YouTube: @AOEAT

You walk into the space & the first thing you see is a gauntlet with swinging "axes" that you need to run through without getting hit! I kinda wish everyone had to do it to gain access but it is one of the many fun games/adventures from Level99. The special menu was $25 for a pizza & 2 beverages. Upon recommendation of our delightful server Kobe, we opted for the Hot Mess: ezzo cupping pepperoni, piri-piri sauce, fresnos, queso fresco. Pizza is Detroit style & the edges were perfection, I could have used a bit more sauce but the piri-piri drizzle was fire. We both had a glass of wine. We were in the mood for a nightcap. I selected a coffee stout, Jolly Woodsman by Banded Brewing. Our server asked if I wanted a taste before ordering a glass, I was happy that I took him up on the offer - it wasn't my favorite. I was laughing with him that hubby & I are beer weirdos - we like the lightest & the darkest beers. He offered to bring me a taste of the Night Shift Brewing's Imperial stout, Dynasty. And along with that, he also brought the two lightest Night Shift Brewing beers. We loved all three of them! I would definitely go back for the pizza & the beer but the games are calling my name!

Don't sleep on the Night Shift Kitchen.

The meat is sooooo juicy, tender and flavorful! Next would be obviously their pizza and their salad! (please note: their salads is topped to the BRIM! And if good enough to share with 2-3 people) Depending on the day in the mood would determine which pizza I get my top 3 are/ Gold digger, the San Genaro, and the Marilyn Monroe/Fign' a (I can't decide LOL) don't let the commotion of Rolfe square Seder you from visiting, there is plenty of parking in the back, the restaurant is such a vibe with the decor (learn some Italian LOL) and hilarious placemats. And lastly, what I think is so cool and unique about this place is their Themed Weekend specials! They always have fun drinks and witty names for the items. Oh and don't forget to swing by the dessert case on your way out- they have LEMON TIRAMISU!!!! You heard right! LEMON TIRAMISU!!
