The atmosphere was…read morelaid-back, welcoming, and just the kind of spot you want to spend a casual night with friends. We kicked things off with a few craft beers, the variety was impressive, and it was fun sampling different styles I hadn't tried before. While sipping, we jumped into their trivia night, which was such a blast. It had just the right mix of fun and competition (and maybe a little friendly arguing over answers!). Dinner came from a Mexican food truck parked right outside, tacos and beer are a combo I'll never say no to. Once trivia wrapped up, we stuck around and played some board games they had available. It turned into one of those unexpectedly awesome nights where time just flies. What really stood out was the vibe, dog friendly, super chill, and filled with people just enjoying good drinks, food, and company. I'm already thinking about when I can make the trip again.

I actually expected it to be really busy when we got there around 10:45, but there were quite a few open tables. They sat us in a queue table right in the window near the water. I couldn't decide what to get because everything looks so good. I ended up with the Patatas Brava which had soupy in it. I haven't had soup in years and they made it really stand out with the home fries, eggs, and crema. My wife had the basic breakfast, and everything was fresh and cooked perfectly. We ordered an apple crêpe for the table that had caramel and toasted almonds on it. The staff was also great. We had one waitress, but a second one was always there to check on us. The service gets five stars for sure! I wish we had a place like this near our house. It's right on the line of Westerly Rhode Island so we were able to walk around downtown Westerly which was really nice.

So I'm being happy to see that they are thriving even through covid and this pop up restaurant venture is succeeding! All courses are beyond delicious and presentation of each said dish from each course is steller as well. The menu is full of amazing flavor profiles but kept near and concise, which I prefer immensely. It's a BYOB situation so don't forget your fave adult or non adult beverage, they do have 3 flavors of Lori a French soda, but if you are a coke zero addict like myself, bring it with you and they will be happy to supply you with ice and a stylish plastic stemware, it is still covid restricted out here folks. Some of the stand outs for me...never had warm terrine before, since it's usually a cold plated dish, but this warm version is to die for on a crusty piece of bread. Their escargot is classic french preparation but with a little delicious twist of coriander in the garlic and butter mix, a beautiful surprise to anyone's taste buds! Love that chef incorporates some Caribbean flavor flares to his classic french techniques for each dish. The duck confit is killer perfection and the merguez sausages with cous cous is spot on. And who can say no to classic creme brulee and molten chocolate cake?! Mark, the proprietor is a class act and the hostess with the mostess! He'll have you feeling like you just stepped into his home and treat you like family, the side of the family he actually loves. Only open Fri-Sun so reservations are needed and they go fast, so make haste and make one asap. Definitely worth repeated trips!

My friend knows much more about wine than I do, so he was the decision maker for our wine choices and we ordered a 1/2 bottle of red which we both found to be very delicious. Of course, we had to try some food too and the small bites menu was perfect with something to satisfy nearly every taste. We opted for the meat charcuterie, and it was beautifully presented with enough for the two of us to share. There is also a cheese charcuterie on the menu, but unfortunately there is not an option for a combined meat and cheese plate. We sat, sipped, and tasted for a while and never felt rushed. The atmosphere was so comfortable and we'll definitely consider going back here again.

I didn't have the best time at Providence Wine Bar…read more This might sound a little haughty, but hear me out: I can drink wine at home. I can browse a liquor store & pick out a bottle that exactly fits my preferences, my mood, & my budget. I can bring it home & uncork the wine, checking the cork for freshness. I can pull out my special glassware & pour myself a glass of wine & enjoy it on my own couch. So why go out to a wine bar, if not for the wine? For me, it's for the ambience & the experience. Both of those things at Providence Wine Bar were lacking. The lights were too bright (overhead & fluorescent) & the music was too loud (& just bad). The employees seemed both bored & nervous, with not much to do to occupy themselves. I was one of the only people in the bar, so I felt like I was under scrutiny - I'm certain this wasn't intentional but it was unfortunately how it came across. I brought a book but couldn't focus because of the lights & the music. I even caught myself with my fingers in my ears, trying to muffle the sounds of 2010s hyper pop. I have nothing against 2010s hyperpop, it's just that there's a time & place for everything, & maybe that isn't at a wine bar at 8 PM on a Wednesday. I just wanted to be done with my glass of wine so that I could leave. All of that being said, I wish them the best. It seems like they need a good manager's touch.

The young man waiting on is explained that because it is a bed and breakfast they had restrictions on dining hours ok I understand As the night progresses and me on a sour mood.. these folks were able to turn it around with kindness , thoughtful care and exceptional food The salad with buratta was so fresh , very simple but elegant In presentation The Tuna Tatare an absolute powerhouse of clean flavor without a fishy aroma. The bomb dish ( in a good way) was the linguine with lobster. Wow!!!

There was a very rowdy group and the entire place had to listen to them yell, and while that doesn't have anything to do with the restaurant itself, a manager or someone should have asked them to be more conscious of others. We came for Mother's Day with a reservation at 1:00 and didn't get food until 2:20. We had to ask for water refills, and no one came to apologize or let us know the kitchen was running behind. There must have been one cook for the whole restaurant. Unfortunately I would not recommend, the food quality didn't make up for the poor service. Three groups left before getting their food as a result.
