We visited Saint Martha for the first time last Friday evening. We were warmly greeted by Co-Owner…read moreCorinne who showed us our lovely, banquette-style table for 4 with a window view. Saint Martha exudes an old-world, Euro-Chic charm that immediately wraps you in a cozy, comfortable feeling. The details, from the original pressed-tin ceiling to the quaint glass/wood wall separating the kitchen, all add to the ambiance. We started with a complex Black Onion Garlic dip with house-made potato chips. Straight away, this puts everyone in a good mood. Our appetizers consisted of Roasted Farm Carrots & Beets, Lamb and Beef Meatballs, and Citrus & Radicchio Salad (party of 4). All were expertly crafted, creative, and delicious. Of special note, the sauce served with the meatballs was "finger-lickin good". For entrees, we ordered White Lamb Ragu, Roasted Lamb Loin, and Nettie & Ramp Pesto Fettucini. Each dish was beautifully presented and generated a lot of excitement at the table. The roasted lamb, which was perfectly cooked medium rare, was succulent. The house-made, melt-in-your mouth pappardelle pasta served with a ragu sauce put me in the zone. For dessert, we enjoyed 2 servings of a Frangipane buckwheat tart with Almond ice cream. This unusual creation was a homerun. A 32-ounce French Press was enjoyed by all. It's not easy to produce such a meal. Co-owner / Chef Keith and his staff deserve kudos for turning out consistent, extraordinary fare that transports you to a fine European café. The quality of the ingredients, all locally sourced, shine in every dish. If you want something special, look no further than Saint Martha.

We had the soft shell green crab from Maine...beautifully and simply prepared in a ponzu sauce that was the perfect compliment. The season is short and availability is too so this was a first for us and a real treat. We also had the duck and the lamb entrees which are well balanced with the perfect veggies and sauces. Great bar with wonderful options for light drinkers, and hearty drinkers. Fresh new cocktail recipes and they have a large array of mock tails too. Make reservations so you aren't disappointed as it only seats 20. We ate at the bar and loved it.

I love this kind of restaurant because there's no waiting for a check and you can refill your own water whenever you want more. I got the BBQ pork sliders which were phenomenal, and paired with incredible sweet potato fries (which don't cost more!) My partner got the buttermilk chicken sliders which were good too, and the fries were like a cross between chips and fries. The AC was great inside. The outdoor seating was so nice and right on the water. There's room for kids to run around so even though it's a beer place it strikes me as great for kids and families. We will be back!

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.

Probably because every time I walk…read morethrough that door I'm so in the moment that the last thing on my mind is picking up my phone to write about it, which is a good problem to have. Metacom Kitchen is a cozy, intimate bistro, and if you haven't been, you're missing out. The atmosphere pulls you in immediately; warm, unhurried, with just the right amount of low lighting. Behind the bar you'll find a handsome Parisian bartender crafting some of the most thoughtful cocktails around. On this particular visit, that meant an extra dirty gin martini and a chai old fashioned. Both were perfect. My partner and I love to graze, rather than commit to one big entrée, when we can. My partner's family calls it bits and bobs, and that is what we did on this particular visit. We ordered the Duck Plate featuring duck three ways, some picked veggies, a fruit mustard, and grilled focaccia crostini. The Candy Beets & Salsify, which featured jewel-toned beet cubes scattered across what can only be described as a snow of barrel aged feta, roasted salsify (I had to look these up and apparently, they are somewhere between a parsnip and a carrot with an almost oyster like flavor when cooked), topped with some fresh green herbs. The dish was so pretty I almost didn't want to eat it. The Chickpea Fries are exactly what they sound like, and are somehow so much more; golden, crispy little logs served with an A1 aioli that you will not stop eating. The Coriander & Sea Salt Chicken Wings rounded things out; a pile of beautifully seasoned wings with caramelized onions and thyme, paired with a spicy buttermilk dipping sauce that had just the right amount of heat. Everything was absolutely delicious, which is honestly an understatement. We never save room for dessert and that was the plan this time too, until someone nearby ordered a crème brûlée and my partner's head spun around. That's her kryptonite. The version that night had Kahlua in it, which is usually not our thing; but the torched top was a beautiful lacquered brown, the custard underneath was silky, and wow, we were scraping the ramekin. Chef Allaire really knows his stuff. He creates small, decadent bites with ingredients you'd never think to pair, and somehow it all makes perfect sense on the plate. If you're feeling adventurous, make a reservation for Mystery Monday, where a three-course dinner is crafted for you on the spot. Pescatarians and other dietary preferences are accommodated if you let them know ahead of time. It fills up fast, so plan accordingly. If you prefer to order off the regular menu, that's available Monday too, and every other night. Either way, do yourself a favor and get here.

Thrilled this restaurant has reopened! It was always a favorite, especially for Monday Madness…read moredinners with friends, but it closed about 18 months ago while the chef moved on to Scales and Shells in Newport, which has since changed ownership. Now, after being back for a month or so, the place is even better than before. We recently enjoyed Monday Madness ($45/head for 3 courses - a steal!) again--every dish was both innovative and delicious. Expect fun surprises like veal croquette with sweetbreads or an inventive duck sampler. The regular menu is concise but well-crafted, which means everything is fresh and prepared with care. I've always felt that a smaller menu leads to higher quality, and it's clear the kitchen is focused on doing each dish well. Hard to imagine other places keeping sixty menu items consistently good or fresh. Service remains reliable and welcoming. The only downside is parking, since you'll need to find a spot on the street nearby. Definitely recommended!

I was one of many people venturing out to find a meal I don't have to cook and they were fast, friendly and the food came out quickly- and mind you half of Bristol and Warren showed up at once. I was so impressed that they showed up to work in these conditions, but their service made me a repeat customer. Prior to that, I'd only dined here once...since I've been here every other week. The food is decent, excellent portions and the staff are warm and welcoming. They could've been miserable and blunt when they had a long line after the storm but they brought their A game. I'll continue to support this local business as long as the service stays the same. Thank you to the staff!!!!

We stopped in during Appy Hour for some appetizers and cocktails, which is our go to at Waterdog…read more They have a great app selection and it rarely disappoints. We ordered the mini stuffies, the hummus plate, and the fried pickles. The mini stuffies were a highlight. Loaded with Mello's chouriço and packed with flavor, they're a solid little bite. My grandfather set the bar pretty high for me on stuffies, and these came close. They have a different profile than what I grew up with; a little less bready, more chouriço forward, and the clam flavor takes a back seat. Not necessarily a complaint, they were just different from what I'm used to and were genuinely tasty. The lemon aioli on top was also a nice touch. The fried pickles were exactly what you want them to be. Crispy, well fried, and the breading actually stayed put while you ate them, which is more than I can say for a lot of fried pickles. They came with the same lemon aioli as the stuffies, which worked just as well here. The hummus plate was a bit of a letdown. We've had it many times before and it used to be a standout. This time the hummus itself was thick and pretty flavorless, more like a dense chickpea paste than anything else. The accompaniments were nice though and consisted of heirloom carrots, cucumbers, olives, cherry tomatoes, asparagus, pickled cauliflower, carrot, and a pepperoncini, all served alongside some buttery round crackers that were like a Ritz cracker's more refined cousin. The veggies saved the plate, but the hummus needs to find its way back. I suppose it could have just been an off batch and won't prevent us from trying it again. Cocktails were great, as usual. I had the Anana with scotch. I love pineapple and this has muddled pineapple and basil, pineapple juice, cracked black pepper. It's my go-to here and it delivered again. My partner went adventurous and ordered the Jungle Booby, which is built around tequila blanco and mezcal with campari, pineapple, grapefruit, lime, orgeat, and an absinthe spritz. The flavors were genuinely good, but the smokiness from the mezcal was a bit much for her taste. She followed it up with a glass of rosé and had no complaints after that. The cocktail wasn't the problem, it just wasn't her style. One of our favorite spots in Warren for a quick nibble, for a good reason.

The inside vibe is so welcoming, chairs are incredibly comfy, the overall aesthetic is fun & super cute. One thing that stood out to me the most is that there are different types of tea menus- Afternoon Tea is the more traditional sampler style where you get a little bit of everything, you are even able to pick your 3 sandwiches that you want to try. This also comes with scones, mini pastries & your choice of tea. The Luncheonette I believe is a full size sandwich with soup/salad. There's also a mini version of the Afternoon Tea. We had a group of 4 and chose the Afternoon Tea. Everything tasted so delicious and always makes me want to go home and recreate it all. The cucumber sandwich was so thinly sliced and had such a yummy spread paired with it. I also picked the egg salad & smoked gouda with apple. They had the most creative sandwiches by far. The score were also really good, one had some sort of (strawberry?) glaze on it and paired with some magical cream that tasted like whipped cream & jam. The mini pastries were so delicious and the chocolate tarte with raspberry was the start of the show. They also had mini macaroons & little cookies.
