After making reservations at another restaurant, we drove there only to discover they were…read moreclosed--even though we had received confirmation for our 7:00 PM reservation. Needless to say, it was a disappointing start to what was supposed to be a special family evening. Thankfully, a quick call to Aguardente in Fox Point changed everything. The person who answered explained that they weren't taking reservations that evening, but they did have one outdoor table left if we could make it there in time. Despite the challenges of navigating Providence during the World Cup festivities and the Cape Verde Festival in the Fox Point area, we managed to get to the restaurant and secure that last table. We are incredibly grateful to the staff at Aguardente for helping turn our evening around. Our daughter and son-in-law were hoping to enjoy one last dinner with both families before leaving on Monday for a special assignment in South Carolina, and the unexpected closure of our original restaurant had left everyone feeling frustrated and disappointed. From the moment we arrived, the team at Aguardente made us feel welcome. The food was excellent, the drinks were wonderful, and the service was outstanding. Most importantly, they helped transform what had begun as a stressful evening into a memorable celebration with family. Thank you to everyone at Aguardente for your kindness, hospitality, and professionalism. You made our families smile and created a special memory during an important moment in our lives. We highly recommend Aguardente and look forward to returning. -- A very grateful family

Atmosphere: cute outdoor seating area for summer nights. The inside has cool decor (including a…read morebathroom that apparently won an award??), but is very small and cramped. The upper 'porch' like area looks really fun, but the table we were seated at was so close to the other tables I was uncomfortable. I get that we're in a city, but I value my personal space and privacy and felt like the whole restaurant could hear my every word - ick. Service: our server seemed annoyed that I didn't want an alcoholic drink, and was not very helpful. Half of the menu is not in English (very chaotic how some portions are in English and others are not, it doesn't seem consistent), so we had some questions, such as "what does x taste like?" and the only response we got was "not too sweet"....okay, but what DOES it taste like? She spoke very fast and I couldn't understand her listing off the specials, even though she didn't really have an accent. She left partway through while we were there so I guess she was just at the end of her shift and checked out, but it was so offputting how rude and unhelpful she was. When our servers transitioned, we offered to cash out then since we weren't getting anything else and wanted the original server to get her tips, but she started joking around that we didn't have to do that - which I appreciate, but we actually did want to get going and get cashed out, but she refused to give us our check. I asked three times and she still wouldn't 'let us do that'...very weird. Food: there were not a ton of vegetarian options that appealed to me. I went a little overboard on plantains by accident, which is my mistake. I first ordered the Rellenitos with cilantro crema sauce, which were very good and a flavor combination I wasn't expecting. The dough to filling ratio was a little off and they were pretty dry inside, so I needed a lot of the sauce. An order only came with 2 and I wish it was more. I'm glad I ordered something else - Tula Fries, which came with the same exact cilantro creme sauce as the Rellenitos, even though they are described differently on the menu, which felt lazy to repeat a sauce. The sauce didn't go well with them at all in my opinion so I did not enjoy these as much as I would've liked. My friend enjoyed her drink, but thought almost all of the meat on her meat and cheese board was either low quality or close to going bad. It was priced reasonably, which we were shocked by, but she couldn't eat a good portion of it sadly. We did really enjoy the baked flava bean snack that was a part of it. The board weirdly came with just half of one small, half rotten strawberry that looked terrible - it would've been better to leave it off. Towards the end of the night, there was so much water on the floor in the hallway that goes to the bathroom and passes the kitchen - I had to walk through it to go to the bathroom, which felt like a safety hazard. My friend was on crutches and wouldn't even try to get over there since we knew she'd slip on all the water. It just looked terrible and was dangerous, so not sure what we going on that there was such a water issue there. Their specialties and more meat based dishes are probably great, but there just aren't a ton of things for me to eat here. I'd be willing to try it again for drinks and apps if the service wasn't so unwelcoming.

I have a feeling my first time at Auntie's House certainly won't be my last - quick and friendly…read moreservice, generous portions, and incredible flavor combos. They. Do. Not. Skimp. On. Toppings. I opted for a build-your-own bowl, starting with jollof rice as my base and steak for my protein. Both were so good, I could have had them standalone. But when you mix in lettuce, cucumbers, jalapeños, and corn, plus Auntie's Spicy Mayo and Garlic White Sauce, this bowl was truly next level. When fresh meets saucy, it's a 10/10 for me. I tend to get a bit creative with build-your-own experiences, but everything came together so well with the peppers and seasoning. I can't wait to try their signature bowls - don't fret, there are plenty of great options to choose from if mine sounded a bit all over the place ;) We ordered plantains as well - sweet, fresh, and the perfect texture. No complaints here; these were such a treat and paired so well with the bowl. Honestly, I'd have them standalone too. Though I took the bowl to-go, the dining room had ample seating and was well-kept. I loved the chill patio vibes and would definitely dine in on my next visit. You may have to opt for street parking if the lot is full, but Auntie's House is absolutely worth the visit for a hearty, saucy, flavor-packed bowl.

The wonderful ladies there took such great care of us--answering all our questions, making perfect recommendations, and providing truly exemplary service. The food is prepared right in front of you and arrived at our table piping hot. I was impressed by the extensive variety of rice, meats, and veggies to choose from. Everything was fresh and packed with flavor. If you're in the area, I strongly recommend stopping by. Get there soon--you won't be disappointed!

Yesterday was my birthday and it was finally time for me to try a seafood boil. I'm so glad I did!…read moreCaptain Loui's has a small parking lot which is impressive for Federal Hill. We stopped in at 5 yesterday and were worried the restaurant would be busy, but we were sat immediately. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated with lots of nautical themes. Our waitress was lovely and explained the menu to us in detail. As it was our first time at a seafood boil she was very patient with all our questions. Ultimately I had the 2lb boil with 1lb of mussels, 1/2lb of shrimp, and 1/2lb of clams in the captain Loui sauce with a side of garlic noodles. Our waitress came back quickly with a bib, gloves, and a bucket for shells. Not long after our meals came out and let me tell you everything was excellent! The seafood was cooked perfectly, plenty of sauce, and even the corn and potato were out of this world. I ordered the sauce medium and it definitely had a nice kick to it. The garlic noodles had great flavor, a little clumpy but with a little of that captain Loui sauce added on top it fixed the problem. It's not cheap but for a once in a while special occasion treat I can not recommend this place enough!

My fave seafood boil spot! I'll never go anywhere else. Their sauce, seafood quality and service is…read moreall great. The seafood is always fresh here. I always get the pick 2 and select the shrimp with head on and mussels. Comes with some potatoes and corn; also a side of your choice (I always do extra corn or garlic noodles!) you pick your sauce (get the capt Louie sauce!) and spice level (hot! Is best). The only place I'll got 10 fingers in on a meal and let the sauce get all over my face (I usually hate eating with my hands).. it's so worth it. There's a flower vendor lady that walks around fed hill and she'll come by for your boyfriend to buy you flowers too ladies haha! My boyfriend got the fish and chips w/cajun fries and he said it was better than when we visited Newport.

5 enthusiastic stars for GREAT Indian delivery food that was very vegetarian-friendly!…read more We were ordering in and the reviews had us convinced that India Restaurant was the way to go. Things we loved: - the naan is LEGIT. And the order came with a very hefty amount of it. - veggie and tofu biryani: I put a note for it to be mild and it was! The star of this dish (other than the perfect rice and sauce) were the little raisins or currants that gave the perfect sweet surprise in many bites. - masala curry with tofu: Again, I requested mild and it was mild. My esophagus thanks them! This came over a bed of rice and the rich sauce was so delicious that we used the naan to sop it all up at the end. No scraps or crumbs left behind! Truly this was a great Indian meal. Though I wish we would've been able to eat at the restaurant, the delivery was faultless and the food traveled very well.

This is a long review, but that's because this was a true dining experience from beginning to end…read moreand I genuinely felt it deserved the detail. There were simply too many thoughtful touches and standout moments not to mention. We recently celebrated my wife's birthday with family at this restaurant, and the entire experience was first class from beginning to end. Originally, I made the reservation through their website/OpenTable integration, but because we had multiple family dinners planned over several days for her birthday weekend, I had to change the reservation more than once. Each time I called directly, the staff could not have been more accommodating. No attitude, no hassle -- just "no problem" and they took care of it immediately. When we arrived, the manager, Vincent, greeted me by name at the door and welcomed us in personally. That level of attention immediately stood out. He seated us at a beautiful table overlooking the canal. Even without WaterFire that evening, the view against the window was absolutely stunning. I also want to mention that they offer valet service. We didn't use it during this visit, but with the seasons changing and plans to return, we will definitely be taking advantage of it next time. Our server, Tyroll, was exceptional. He greeted us immediately, offered still or sparkling water, and brought out a chilled bottle of sparkling water along with fresh bread without us even asking. The focaccia was outstanding. He guided us through the menu perfectly -- making recommendations, answering questions, and pacing everything beautifully. For appetizers we had: * Two orders of Clams Casino * Two arugula salads with pine nuts, currants, shaved parmesan, and an incredible dressing * Shrimp & Chorizo, which was absolutely outstanding Honestly, everything was outstanding from the start. All you could hear at our table were the "ohs" and "ahs" as everyone tasted each dish. After the appetizers, they even brought warm lemon water with towels so we could clean our hands -- another classy touch. For dinner: * Chilean Sea Bass with miso beurre blanc, bok choy, Peruvian peppers & cucumber chutney * Braised short rib with smashed creamer potatoes, parmesan garlic broccoli, carrots, braising jus, and a side of risotto * Grilled salmon with haricots verts, dill buttermilk potatoes, lemon garlic oil, and caper onion agrodolce * Filet mignon over creamy scalloped potatoes and sautéed spinach with bordelaise sauce served around the plate exactly as requested Every single entrée was cooked perfectly and beautifully presented. Dessert somehow elevated the evening even further. My wife had the crème brûlée, which was phenomenal. I ordered a special blueberry muffin-style dessert with mousse and ice cream that was incredible. Then, for her birthday, they brought out a Pot de Mousse dessert featuring dark and white chocolate mousse, raspberry and mango coulis, and cappuccino tartufo. Nobody planned on ordering it, but once it hit the table my aunt and I completely devoured it. What impressed me most was that nothing felt forced or overly scripted. The service felt genuine, polished, and thoughtful throughout the entire evening. This wasn't just a great dinner -- it was an experience. Thank you to Vincent, Tyroll, and the entire staff for making my wife's birthday truly memorable. We will absolutely be back.
