We ordered pappardelle alla bolognese, broccoli di rapa, and fries; the order came with complimentary bread. The pasta portion was decent but the broccoli side was small. I would reorder both because they were so good. Bread is usually a hit or miss, and in this case, it was a hit - a soft, warm inside with a nice, crispy crust.

First of all you truly can't tell when you're in the restaurant that you're in a hotel. It feels very cozy inside. We've been here several times over the years and have never been disappointed. We went with the littles and they had the typical pasta with butter and chicken fingers. We shared their special heirloom tomato and burrata salad over arugula. So fresh. So delicious. For our entrees, hubs had the porterhouse steak and I had the ravioli Norma (eggplant). Both were beyond delicious. The porterhouse steak could literally be cut with the side of a fork. Cooked a perfect medium rare. They make all the pasta in house so obviously it's insanely delicious. The sauce couldn't have been better. Our waiter was very attentive, kept our water and wine full, kids liked him. Just a really friendly guy. Cannot recommend this place enough for locals or tourists.

We started with their focaccia and it turned out to be the very best thing we ate. I had the special pasta with chicken -- which was okay but it was so heavy that I could only eat a small portion of it. Too much cream, too much butter. Others had the salmon (said it was ok, not great) and one person had the special pork chop (said again, it was okay, not great). The menu is so limited -- that we all ordered things that weren't what we would have liked. And it was expensive. So we won't be back.

The pasta balls were so cute and plump and perfectly stuffed. The pistachio topping was such a nice little burst of flavor and crunch. The portion was a little small - I finished the whole meal when I typically always have leftovers at an Italian restaurant - but the flavors and texture were phenomenal. PLEASE don't take it away!

Celeste has an Iberian influenced (Spain/Portugal) menu as opposed to Trio which was Italian. For apps we had the Patatas Bravas (incredible) and the charred octopus. Being Portuguese, I know good Octopus and this was ELITE. For Entree I had the Romesco Cod (again Portuguese approved as we LOVE us some cod) My date had the Halibut which is her usual (she lives in Gansett and comes here often) I tried her dish and it was perfect! We shared the pistachio tiramisu and it was a perfect way to end an unforgettable dinner. The waitress was on point the whole dinner. I believe her name was Anastasia. They didnt have any cortados in the coffee menu, but Anastasia said she could make one for me and boy did she nail it! The location is also great. We went for a stroll on Narragansett beach ( a short walk from Celeste) after dinner and caught a beautiful sunset. I haven't posted a review in a while, but I had to share my experience. Highly recommend. Only took one photo as we were a bottle of wine in when it occurred to me that I should document the experience for Yelpers.

Jared told us he was the best and I can agree! This was quite possibly one of the best meals I've had all year! We shared a special of the night ( goat cheese, beets, peaches and hot honey) and the salad that is set to be a new menu item. Everything was locally sourced and these dishes were a 10/10! It was hard to choose and entree so Emily C and I split the cod and the steak sirloin. The cod was to die for. The best I've ever had. The sirloin was chefs kiss and the sauce and asparagus it paired with (and potatoes too) were all out of this world! While i was already full, the dessert menu is a must. We went with a lemon dessert and oh my goodness was it to die for! Drinks were amazing too---I had a spritz and a very tasty mocktail! Ambiance both inside and outside are beautiful. Since it was a sunny summer night we sat outside, but inside is equally stunning. It is very upscale chic and so pretty! Thank you for a wonderful experience! I'll be back for the staff, especially our server David, another drink, the eggplant sandwich and more of the dessert menu! I see why Yelp raves about this new spot! It is !

I also would have preferred a crispy wonton over the potato chips. We split the swordfish with butternut squash and sage butter, which was good, but the fish itself could have used more flavor. The Some Like It Hot spicy martini with blue cheese-stuffed olives was delicious! Our waiter was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere was cozy and lively.

He told us he was pretty booked but wanted to keep us there so he figured something out. He was able to squeeze us in between reservations. Meanwhile the two people waiting outside turned into a HUGE LINE. It was apparent that this place is a big deal and we were lucky to have gotten a table. The food was amazing! The wine was amazing! The waitress told us all about the history behind the place and the recipes. If you want authentic Bolognese this is the place. I will absolutely be back.

From the moment we walked up, the host team greeted us with so many smiles and such great energy…read more Katie introduced herself as the GM, was right there welcoming incoming guests herself. It was a BUSY Saturday night, we had no reservation, and the bar was packed... but divine timing somehow worked in our favor and two seats opened up right at the end of the bar. That's where we met Nick behind the bar, and honestly, he made the night. Nick was working the service well, taking care of a packed bar and banging out beautifully curated cocktails. I still don't know how he was that efficient while also taking the time to walk us through the entire menu. You could tell he genuinely took pride in the food he was describing and wanted us to experience it. I started with the Mezcal Negroni and from there we decided on a few small bites. First, the ricotta gnudi... perfectly fried and warm with just the right bite on the outside, then you break into this warm, soft little pillow of ricotta that was an absolute flavor bomb. Finished with freshly shaved Parmesan on top. I swear for a second I thought I was sitting somewhere on the water in Italy. Then the Scotch bonnet egg... WOW... truly every dish was just mind blowing ...all this dishes we ate....Nothing overpowered anything else. Every bite mattered. You could actually taste every layer and every little detail that went into all the dishes. Then came the beef tartare. Beautifully presented with the green crab purée in the center and crispy chips for that perfect crunch. Katie came over herself to explain the dish, and once you got everything together in one bite... absolute flavor explosion. Rich, bright, creamy, salty, crunchy. Everything on that plate had a purpose. We were also told we HAD to try the sweet corn agnolotti and THANK GOD we listened. Another complete flavor bomb. Absolutely amazing. It genuinely gives some of my favorite Italian restaurants in Beverly Hills El Baldi a run for their money. At this point Nick basically said, "Trust me," and asked if he could choose our next course. YES. PLEASE. Out came this gorgeous lamb sausage with fresh greens, snap peas, mint, dill, pickled vegetables and this beautiful creamy green sauce underneath. THAT DISH. The sausage was rich, perfectly cooked and packed with flavor, but all those fresh herbs, greens and acidity made the entire plate feel bright and balanced. Hearty and comforting while somehow still tasting fresh and light. Then Nick convinced us to put our trust in him one last time and let him choose dessert. He brought out the bread pudding and I am not exaggerating when I say it was the PERFECT ending to this entire food adventure. I literally had tears in my eyes. The food, the cocktails, the service, the salt water in the air, the smiles from the staff... everything just came together.....Nothing was pretentious. Everything was highly elevated while still having this incredible sense of warmth and comfort. It almost felt like being welcomed into someone's home and they just happened to be cooking some of the best food you've ever eaten. Huge shoutout to GM Katie and bartender Nick. Thank you both for giving us one of the most amazing and memorable dining experiences I've ever had. We walked in on a packed Saturday night without a reservation, just hoping to grab a couple seats, have a cocktail and eat something good... and walked out feeling like we had experienced something really special. 10/10. Every bite. Every cocktail. Every detail. I would go back in a heartbeat.
