    My husband and I went here on a Thursday night, we made reservations just in case, and I'm glad we did, the restaurant is cozy. Our server explained the menu and gave great suggestions. Highly recommend the oxtail sliders!! Everything tasted freshly baked as they make all breads on site!! They also changed their menus so you can always try something new, we will definitely be back!!

    Oxtail sliders
    Jessel H.

    I really didn't want to leave a bad review because I was excited to try this place, the menu looked fun and creative, but I have to be honest: I was really disappointed, especially considering I spent nearly $40 on takeout. The staff at the bar were kind and welcoming when I picked up my order, which I appreciated. Unfortunately, the food just didn't live up to expectations. I ordered the oxtail sliders, which turned out to be more like tiny bites than actual sliders. They had an odd chunk of what seemed like canned pineapple inside,more pineapple than meat, honestly. Also the tiny bun which seemed to be maybe a biscuit texture was extremely hard . To top that off ,everything was tossed around in the container, not even resembling sliders. I only drove a short distance, so I don't think that was due to transit. I also tried the cornbread dumplings. They were more enjoyable than the sliders, but still missed the mark. They were sitting in a vegetable-style medley and were very soggy at the bottom. I'm not sure if that's how they're supposed to be, but it wasn't a texture I enjoyed. I told the bartender I'd come back and dine in next time, thinking this meal would be great, but sadly, I won't be returning. I was really looking forward to this meal, but I'm left feeling disappointed, unsatisfied, and ironically very "hangry", especially after spending that much money.

    If you have never been to Hangry Kitchen in Pawtucket, you are missing out! They call it "New American Bistro" but we would say unique & sustainable farm/sea to table. Owned by Stacy Deetz, JWU alum & Top Chef contestant, & her husband Rob - she's dreaming up amazing recipes & he is wooing customers, one table at a time. I love that everything is sharable. They are using ingredients that I never thought would work together & the end result is amazing. A couple of items were still on the menu from our first visit but we decided to go with an all new lineup of deliciousness. I had some ideas in mind of what I wanted to order before we talked in. Unfortunately, my selection of Bacon Braised Slipper Limpets was not available so we went with the Whelk Ceviche: local whelks, juicy papaya, zippy Fresno chili & herbs served with crispy passion fruit-curry crackers... they even used the shells as a mold for the crackers (how fun is that?!?!). It had great texture & every bite was special. Hubby ordered the Lasagna Soup: fresh tomato broth spiked with spicy Italian sausage, layered with basil pasta sheets, served with roasted garlic ficelle, crispy Parmesan fricco & ricotta fritters. It was yummi but my favorite parts were the ficelle & the fritters. I could have made a snack of just those! I had to have the Roasted Sugar Pumpkin: molasses & black pepper seasoned sugar pumpkin, paired with marinated honshimeji mushrooms on top of a bed of seasoned ricotta. The pumpkin was roasted with the shell on & everything was edible. The combo of the savory pumpkin with the earthy mushrooms plus the brightness of the ricotta was a winning combo! Last but not least, the Chicken Pot Pie Johnny Cakes: veggie studded corn cakes, pulled chicken, rich chicken gravy, pie crust crumbles. This has been on the menu from the get-go & we can see why. It is as comforting as a blanket on a cold day. It looks beautifully abstract but hits all the right notes in the flavor profile. And I want a plate of Johnny cakes with some local maple syrup! Now I just need to get together a bigger group of friends so we can share all the other fabulous menu items! Highly recommend. NOM NOM NOM #YUM

    Wow! This place is a gem. I randomly came across them on Yelp and then also saw their feature in RI Monthly. Parking is a bit tricky here since their street spots out front are only 30 minutes. You can tell the menu is super seasonal, which I love. My friend and I had a very hard time narrowing down what we should get since everything looked so good. I generally like veggie dishes, but here I literally wanted to try them all. The butternut squash dumplings were delicious, one of my favorites of the night. My other favorite was the confit turkey with spaetzle, it was super flavorful and just all round awesome. Some other dishes we ordered were the baked apple, crab and grits, as well as the apple crisp. Everything was super thoughtfully put together and artfully presented. Just check out the pics! The cocktails were also beautiful and delicious. Service was lovely and the restaurant has a true neighborhood feel, which we loved! Highly recommend checking them out!

    My favorite quote from the bathroom
    Kate C.

    I'm not sure what was better, the food, the drinks, or the conversation with both staff and regulars. Perhaps a solid 3-way tie! The menu changes often but tonight I had - Crushed cucumbers, beets, green crab slice (which was like deli pizza), the satin coffin tequila drink, a bourbon blt drink (amazing), and a pavlova. 1000% would dine again.

    One for all. Thru the kitchen door. Cute.

    Stacey really made this a wonderful visit. Her personality is welcoming and the business model of locally sourced foods and community engagement events are what really put this business into the five star territory. Located in the same building as an autobody repair shop we almost passed it by. We parked in the small lot to the left of the building. It looks like most parking is street side in the surrounding neighborhoods. There is a small outdoor seating area between the restaurant and the main road. Inside is a bar taking up about half of the back wall, a corner at the end with a high top for a group and then a variety of tables scattered about the room. Rough wood table tops w/metal chairs in either purple or orange. The artwork on the walls is from a local artist and antique/thrift store finds. Glassware and plates are sourced from the same, so they are most definitely trying to keep their footprint small. Another nice touch. Food is very high quality and delicious! I follow them on Instagram and the menu changes regularly based on what is available. So you will want to stop in regularly and find out what is on the menu. My SO had their corn bisque. He loved it! All that sweet corn taste with a slightly spicy aftertaste. I had the stuffed pepper and it was truly fantastic! They make the bread in the stuffing in house and the spiciness of this dish was just perfect! I really enjoyed that dish. We sampled a couple of adult beverages from their menu. I had the Intoxidaisy which is a nice summery drink. As mentioned, they offer local liquors including the Rhodium coffee black walnut vodka that they use in their espresso martini. That is one good vodka. The vodka used in this drink is from India and has a smoky quality that really set the Intoxidaisy apart. My SO had a craft beer available in cans. Beverage and food prices reflect the quality and expertise of the items and service received. The space is very laid back, fun and easy going. Not a 'cheap date' spot, it's definitely a spot to comfortably enjoy the finer things in life.

    The Turkey Stew in the bread bowl was very good and enough for two.

    The Hangry Kitchen has a very innovative menu. Patricia had the: "Harvest Turkey Stew in Bread Bowl."

    Everything was great! Walked in on. Friday night, quickly seated, our server Jacob was outstanding. Explained everything on the menu in detail. The menu of Tapas was diverse with some great options, price wise a very good deal and locally sourced ingredients. The food was prepared, plated and served perfectly. Left room for dessert and we are so glad we did. The staff is wonderful, everyone. We will be back and to that, we will bring more people next time. Such a great place! Check them out.

    Hangry Kitchen served up a solid meal--I know this because I do remember leaving satisfied. What I don't remember? What I actually ate. For the life of me, I couldn't tell you what I had. But hey, it must have been good, right? What I do remember is the bill. Let's just say it was a little spicier than expected. Not outrageous, but enough to make me do that awkward double-take at the receipt. Maybe I blacked out from sticker shock, and that's why I can't recall the meal? Overall, the vibes were nice, service was super pleasant and the food (whatever it was) must have been tasty. The experience was pleasant.

    There was no hangry about it - the lively colors paired with the most amazing dishes had me full on happy. My friend and I went early and no problem grabbing a table but it did fill up. Go check out this place!

    The food here is amazing! The only thing is that it is in an awkward spot. Highly recommend figuring out where to park to try out this amazing place! The service is great and a wonderful place for a date. The cocktails are fun and ambiance is fun. Can't wait to go back!

    When I heard a former Top Chef contestant had opened a new restaurant in Pawtucket, I was all over it :) The menu looked really intriguing and creative and I was excited to try it out. First off, the decor is really funky and fun. The color scheme is orange and dark purple, and it carries through everything including some of the glassware and even the gorgeous dried flower arrangements on the tables. Our server was eager to please and very helpful. We also met both of the owners and they were both lovely, super down to earth, friendly, warm, and enthusiastic about their new restaurant. I had a lovely cocktail called Fantasticus and it was served in seriously the most gorgeous glass ever that they sourced at an antique shop. Even the silverware had colorful metallics and were just really unique and allowed the personality of the restaurant to really shine through. The food was great. We started out with the squash dumplings and the chicken pot pie johnny cakes. Both were very creative and flavorful. The dumplings were savory and sweet! The johnny cakes combined all the wonderful components of a chicken pot pie into a really unexpected presentation. It was hearty and delicious! My friend enjoyed the whole roasted cauliflower as her entree and was extremely impressed by this veggie dish that was not only gorgeous but had so many layers of flavors and textures. I had the peppercorn butter steak tips. I was excited at the prospect of aligot as a side, but would be remiss to ignore the fact that it wasn't really aligot. It was cheesy mashed potatoes which were lovely and great with the steak tips, beans, and mushrooms, but alas... not aligot. Still not disappointed. It was tasty and I ate every bite. Finally, for dessert I couldn't resist the pina colada swiss roll! It was a touch sweet for me (the buttercream in particular leaned the entire dish sweet) BUT I still loved it. The pineapple compote was really nice. All in all, I was so pleased by our visit to Hangry Kitchen and am super excited to see what they have in store next!

    Flanken ribs
    Vijay S.

    I finally got to try this place. It is a scratch kitchen that uses locally sourced ingredients. The menu also changes often. I tried their chicken pot pie, crispy eggplant, and flanken ribs. The pot pie and the rib(s) were amazing. I loved all the textures in the pot pie and the flavors of the rib(s). I didn't like the eggplant quite as much. Service was fast. Overall, it was very good.

    See all

    Great little hidden gem in Pawtucket Rhode Island! Small, so get a reservation. Non traditional recipes with lots of variation!

    I was researching some places that had sandwiches for lunch today and I'm thrilled I came across…read morethis place and was able to give it a try! Parking is tough but you should be able to find street parking without a long walk. I knew the restaurant was small and was worried we'd have trouble finding a seat because of that. However, we were the only customers in there for a solid 10 minutes when we first arrived. The restaurant itself was adorable! Small but nicely decorated and furnished. I appreciated the stars on the ceiling. The staff were friendly and gave us as much time as we needed with the menu before we ordered at the counter. I had the chicken empanadas and the shrimp poboy. The food came out quickly and was piping hot and fresh. The empanadas were excellent. Great flavor and tasted high quality. I found them to be a little oily but that wasn't anything a napkin couldn't fix. The shrimp was cooked well and I liked the sauce it came with. Their bread was also super soft and tasted freshly baked. Definitely something I'd consider ordering again! Overall, I'd definitely come back to the White Owl and would love to check out more things on the menu.

    White Owl in Providence is such a solid neighborhood spot…read more Cool, casual vibe with a modern feel, and the menu has a fun mix of comfort food and creative dishes. The drinks are great, there's usually a nice selection of beers on tap, and it's an easy place to relax with friends for dinner or just a couple of drinks. Service has been friendly and the atmosphere on Hope Street makes it feel like a go-to local hangout. Overall, really glad this place is around -- I'd definitely recommend White Owl if you're in the area.
