I really hesitate in writing one star reviews but I have to be honest with this one. This was the second time I have been here and this experience was just terrible and not worth the money we spent. First of all, we went in as a party of 6 (we also said we could be split in 3 and 3) at about 7:30 pm and there were plenty of empty tables. Some had reserved signs on them but others were empty. They still gave us an hour wait. We waited, and during that time saw a small rodent (rat or mouse) scurry across the floor int he restaurant. Pretty unappetizing but we were tired and didn't want to try anywhere else at that time of night. We told the manager but there was not much of a reaction. We then went to the bar to get a drink but the bartender was noticeably curmudgeonly, with very little more to say then a curt "here" when handing us our drinks. In about 40 minutes, they called us to be seated. All was well at first, but after we ordered, we pretty much had radio silence from our server for the next 40 minutes, which is how long it took us to get our food. My uncle ordered a glass of wine and had to remind a server about his order after about 15 minutes. My mom and I shared the mac and cheese and the soup special: tomato saffron. The mac and cheese was pretty good but the tomato saffron soup was basically Campbell's tomato soup with a drop or two of saffron infused oil. NOT worth the $7. read more

This is our first stop from flying in from Houston and we always check out Yelp first. This is really close to the Airport and we had not eaten all day. We have the Mac and cheese- good but not in our top fav. Had the chicken bacon sandwich. The pretzel was was a little burnt and our waitress happily switched it out which so glad I did. It was probably the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. Equal to my weekly go to Chick fil a. My husband had the roast beef sandwich and it was almost as wonderful as the chicken. My daughter had the chicken Asian noodles -equally as good. Home run guys!!! If we are back in to we will put this place on our list!! Great staff, nice atmosphere, great food, original recipes = 5 stars read more

Friday afternoon July 20th, my dining companion and I decided to venture into the Iron Works Tavern for lunch. We both admired the bright and rustic decor. There were some good options on the menu as well as the specials. Our waitress Samantha came over to greet us and take our order. We settled on unsweetened ice tea and diet coke. We both opted for the fish sandwich. You can order it with fries or a dressed salad. My companion opted for the no bun low carb option. When the sandwich came out we both noticed it's size two beefsteak tomato slices on the bottom, then lettuce, two nice pieces of fish, and a lemon aioli. The first bite was sheer delight, the next bites were heaven. That lemon aioli was so dynamic we were forced to ask for extra. The fish was lightly breaded and crisp. I removed the tomatoes and put it into my dressed salad which had a lite balsamic offering on it. The meal was delicious and filling. My mind is made up that a return trip to Iron works is in order. The staff are friendly and attentive. If you're looking for a place that has good food, an attentive staff this is the place for you. We had no wait on a Friday afternoon. read more

So happy to be back .. Kenny and Lauren not only made me smile.. but laugh out loud... and that's just an addition to the food and drink KENNY!!! So much fun, such great company!! You have to meet him!! read more

Excellent atmosphere and really delicious food. Wood Grilled Salmon was phenomenal and the beet salad was light and healthy. Great spot.

Came here for lunch with my wife and had a fantastic meal & desert. The cowboy caviar was ok and the burger was good but not mind blowing. I did love the fish tacos and the deserts were excellent. I would definitely return the service was friendly and the space is super cool. read more

Before I designate the brie board as the greatest dish I've had in New England, let me add that it was takeout, taking it down a 25% notch. So many condiments and all are stellar. Not one thing was disappointing. This is now my dinner 7 days a week. read more

so far the meals i have ordered have been amazing!!! i recommend the chimichurri and the baked bolognese.

Bars can be fickle places. The best are local places but you also have to put up with the idiosyncrasies that equate to "color." Bars also have micro-personalities that change with the time and the day; so I think you have to take any bar review with a grain of salt. Think of it this way. Imagine going to the beach. It is very warm but the wind is blowing and it is overcast. Does the beach suck? I think not. Perhaps that part of the beach isn't for you or maybe you go another time. I think the Grid Iron is just such a place. I came in for a pre-haircut beer and found a large, somewhat dim establishment, but soon realized the management allows the natural light to do what it does best. After a few minutes it is just light enough in here, and it is much more comfortable than bright fluorescent lights. I noticed someone made a comment about having to make their way through a throng of smokers. I only encountered four or five but they were very polite and there is an area especially set up for smokers. Besides, they are a dying breed, so we should be respectful and a little nostalgic (that is harshly ironic - could be the double IPAs). There were locals at the bar and some were using *gasp* salty language, but it is a bar, so... We had the most sexually inappropriate bartender. I wish I remembered her name as she was so over the top naughty. Ok, yes I loved her. My impression is that she knows her audience, um, clientele. I told my coworkers about her, but when they stopped in they reported that she had more than the modicum of appropriateness. I would say their loss, but they enjoyed her service just as much. This is what professional service is all about. I didn't try the food, but my coworkers also said they had very tasty lunches. All in all, if you are in the area and looking for a place to go, stop here and give it a try. read more

We tried the Thanksgiving menu, we were not impressed, sadly. We probably won't go back. Maybe the restaurant was overwhelmed, idk it was just ok. Thanks, Derek, we may try again ordering from the regular menu. read more

Spent New Years Eve last night with another couple, as we have done the past two years. When we were seated, were told kitchen is closing at 10 and at 10:45 were informed they were ready to close. An absolutely horrible experience. I told my wife that there must have been a change in ownership. Sure enough, there was and they have destroyed the vibe. Will never return. read more

Went on 2/13/21 for an early Valentines dinner.....was simply wonderful! The staff was great, our waiter was great, the manager was very attentive.....the food - amazing!!!! read more

Love the food & drinks. The atmosphere is great. Our server Alyssa D was wonderful and very helpful. Would absolutely recommend to a friend.

Last minute dinner decision and Iron Works is always so tasty! My husband and I struggle sometimes finding a resistant we both enjoy because our food choices are so different and here he can enjoy an amazing fresh pizza while I have an out of this world got quinoa salad with scallops. On top of that our server, Alicia I believe, was friendly and there always at the right moment without crowding us. There is also an amazing bar there with great local beers and liquors. Neither of us got it tonight, but there Mac n cheese is out of this world, worth all the cheese and carbs in it! I'd recommend this to locals and travelers. It's also super close to the airport. read more

I loved the food!!! I'm so happy I've found this place :) 10/10 stars! They were pretty busy, but we were served quickly. I had the grilled salmon with goat cheese and bacon quinoa and it was delicious! I definitely intend on coming here often now. I rarely ever leave reviews, but I felt like this place went above and beyond my expectations for food. read more

Iron Works - American Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

My friend and I came here after visiting Proclamation brewery right down the road after their food truck closed early for the night. We found seats at the bar at 8:30 on a Saturday as most people were clearing out for the night. The bartender took his time to greet us and really was not attentive during our visit but my friend and I wanted to be in and out so we didn't mind too much. The menu had a mix of handhelds and fancier dinner meals depending on your budget or level of hungrieness. I got the chic pea lentil veggie burger and was quite impressed. It stayed together the whole time and the side salad was actual mixed greens which you don't see everywhere. They had some local beers on tap and a decent drink list which ranged from $6-$13. If I needed a quick bite to eat and was in the area I'd come back here but wasn't completely satisfied with the menu options as I felt they were basic but that may just be my opinion. It is definitely the best place to go if you are staying in a hotel in the area as most of the other places near by are chain restaurants or fast food. read more

"It was the best of times it was the worst of times" Irion works in Warwick Truly was a "Tale of two Cities" so this is truly a tough review for me. I'm going to break off from what people say are the norm review method and act like your boss at work and tell you the positives before I drop the Negatives. First of and saving grace, The food was delicious I went with the Chicken Parm sandwhich which took me by surprise and us easily top 10 best Chicken parm sandwhiches I've had. It came with fries that were def fresh cut, all nice and hot and super tasty. You could tell the chicken was prepared on the spot as if it was a normal Italian dinner plate but just put into a very tasty bread and fresh mozz with a melo sauce. My wife got the shaved prime rib sandwhich which look very good and my Brother and sister I law enjoyed two steak dishes and I could see the steak was cook perfectly. I also got "Sticky Chicken wings" appetizer they were good with a sticky spicy asian type sauce. The waiter was good and inventive and the inside of pleasant rustic old factory with open ceilings showing vents and duct work with a big bar in the middle and a open kitchen. Unfortunately there are some negatives that bring Irion works to a 3 star rating despite the good food. When I arrived in it was extreamly hot inside I'd say in the mid 80s ez. I sat down in search if some water due to the heat unfortunately that would be delayed due duty glasses and I dont mean a finger print I'm talking sticky gross dirty. I eagerly open the menu and was shocked how small it was not much to choose from at all. I looked at a good amount of apps and sandwiches but main meals lacked in variety. We put our orders in and in quick fashion the apps and salads came out we enjoyed them waited for main course.... and waited.... and waited.... and waited a large amount of time passed the table next two us finished there meal left table was reset and a 2nd family ordered and ate and we still had no meal. The apps and salads were a distant memory at this point. The waiter comes and says just a few more minutes as the table next to us with the 2nd family starts dessert. Another 39 min pass after the waiter last came... at this point I'm not that hungry anymore my apps are fully digested and I'm overheated by the tropical temps if the restaurant. As I'm watching the table next to us being reset for the 3rd party since I've arrived out of the corner of my eye what do I see??? HAZAAAR! OUR FOOD! As I described before the food was great! It's a shame that this review has to be 3 stars becuase the food deserves better. Maybe it was a bad night for them but it was kinda ridiculous. Maybe I'll go back someday and let them try to redeem themselves. read more

About as mediocre a restaurant that one is likely to find in Rhode Island. The greeter or hostess or whatever needs a brush up on people skill or even better have someone else. I am very surprised at the Newport Restaurant Group as there establishments are usually top notch. The server was ok nothing out of the ordinary just ok. The pork schnitzel was the best dish, the mashed potatoes were awful. No need to enumerate the food any more it was all mediocre at best. Dessert portions on the smaller side. Drinks were fine. read more

Meh. First I of all, we had bad service from Joseph. I'm sorry to call someone out by name, but he was standing along the wall staring into space for ages while we were waiting for him and he even ignore when we waved at him. The alleged "Short rib" is some weird piece of meat with no bone in a magic rectangle shape (see pic). Maybe it was brisket, but it was way overpriced at $26 and "roasted vegetables" turned out to be just carrots. I do like carrots but it wasn't as advertised. The lobster roll was good. Joseph also didn't tell us there would be substitution upcharge for requesting an alternate liquor in one of the cocktails. Overall, the food was just ok and I won't be going back. read more

Iron Works - "Short ribs" with vegetables (AKA carrots) and mashed potatoes - American Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

What an amazing experience last night for my birthday celebration here!!! Our party of ten was seated at a very comfortable location, and every single person was thrilled with the quality of their meals. I had the braised short rib with delicious mashed potatoes and gravy (so much FLAVOR!!) and perfectly cooked, fresh carrots and green beans. I added the soup of the day that was so good I didn't mind stuffing myself a little fuller than usual , and as one of two birthday peeps also enjoyed a complimentary dessert. I chose the coconut cream pie and WOW! What a treat! Anthony took wonderful care of us, showing up right on time when needed and letting us alone when not, and his impeccable service was quite appreciated by all. I tried two cocktails (pineapple infused vodka and the mezcal margarita) and both were well-made. The ambience was incredible, especially given the number of people there compared with the little noise we had to compete with. Great sound abatement!!! All in all, highly recommend this establishment and thrilled to have introduced it to the rest of our group. We will all be back read more

Great beer list, smoked wings and the pastrami sandwich and fries were very good. A huge pile of pastrami, though could have been more evenly spread on the sandwich which also seemed to be missing sauerkraut or another bit of veggie. read more

Ordered takeout after a long day at the beach. Service was fast (30 mins from when we ordered to having our food) and the hostess was very friendly! The chicken tenders were fine but the fries were oily, soft, and kind of cold... the chips were hard and stale, and the guacamole was tasteless. I don't think they have heard of salt and pepper. The fish and chips were horrible too, as the fish was soggy. Would not ever come back here and don't recommend you do either. read more

- The 'Lamb lollipops' (which are delicious) & the burgers are the only thing I've eaten here. They (Ironworks) are pricey! 3 Lamb lollipops for $15. $12 for a burger (Lettuce, Tomatoes & onions) If you want cheese add $1. Bacon $2 extra. Definitely (NOT) worth it!!! (UPDATE) I had to drop the rating to a "2" due to the fact that they tried to charge me an extra $11 for a side order of asparagus & mashed potatoes. The 'Lamb Lollipops' cost a little over $16 (tax included) when I wanted to add 2 sides, they were charging an extra $11!! $27 total. SMH!! read more

Just order a burger from Iron Works with the truffle fries and it's easily the best burger I've had in quite a while. It was juicy, perfectly cooked, and seasoned. The fries are evil in their addtictivesness. I saw quite a few yummy options on the menu and looking forward to trying them all. read more

Very nice place and the food was great. Iron works design is exactly as the name says, modern industrial design with many iron elements. Chic read more

I wasn't expecting the quality of food and drinks to be so great considering that it was connected to a hotel. Food was a little pricey but definitely well worth it. I ordered the pizza here and it was fantastic! Honestly wish I could have brought it back to my hotel to finish it but I didn't have a microwave in my room. If you're in the area I would definitely recommend stopping by and checking this place out! read more

Iron Works - $15 Pizza - American Near Me - Warwick, Rhode Island

Well run restaurant. Food was very good. Especially the meat loaf. Parking is terrific and the crowd was friendly.

Whilst staying in the Hilton Garden Inn in Warwick, Rhode Island, I visited the Iron Works Restaurant/Tavern for dinner. And I liked it. It's not the kind of place that's overly fancy; in fact, the lighting was quite dim and there's a rustic feel to the dining area. But you'll be comfortable and well taken care of. Our pick of the appetizers were the interesting Lamb Lollipops that came deliciously marinated. If you like lamb, or haven't ever tried it before, like me, it's a great choice. They were gone pretty quickly. The salad I got soon after was pleasant as well. Then came my bread-crumb topped Mac and cheese (yes, I know, I get that a lot). It came in a beautiful cast iron dish which stayed warm throughout the meal. I guess that's about it for the Iron Works in Warwick. It has a great vibe, good menu and though the lighting was iffy, I would go back. read more

I had a lovely lunch at Iron Works. The whole team was very accommodating to our mixed adult & children group as well as need for accessible seating. The service was fantastic - friendly, supportive, and welcoming. We had the kids salmon (with mashed potatoes, carrots & broccoli rabe) the Buffalo chicken dip, the guacamole & chips, the beet & goat cheese salad, and pork schnitzel. Everything was well flavored, fresh, well presented, & delicious. We will be back! read more
