Came for dinner with friends who live locally and love it. I would say it was ok. The mac and cheese I got wasn't super flavorful. Servers were quick, bathroom was clean. Overall not bad!

Talk about an amazing menu!!! They have so many delicious options whether you are vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, gluten free, or carnivore! Truly impressive. I can't eat dairy and never get to indulge in decadent Mac n cheese and here I could! Highly recommend. The servers are really great too. I've had delicious coffee drinks and cocktails here!

Reheated undercooked waffles from the Chicken and Waffles

Our experience was extremely disappointing from the moment we walked in. We arrived as two families with a party of 9 and even offered to split into two separate tables. There were five available 4-person tables, yet the hostess/waitress refused to seat us, repeatedly stating they only accepted parties of 8. She even said she had to ask a manager whether we could be seated at two separate tables, which made us feel very unwelcome. When we questioned whether they simply didn't want to serve us, we were suddenly offered two tables anyway. The entire interaction left us feeling singled out and discriminated against. Unfortunately, the service only got worse. The same waitress who initially refused to seat us was assigned to our children's table. Two of our children were served undercooked pancakes and waffles. When we sent the waffles back, instead of making fresh ones, they simply microwaved them, and they were still undercooked. Our children ended up sharing food because their meal was never properly remade. To make matters worse, the restaurant refused to remove the inedible waffles from our bill, expecting us to pay for food that was not properly prepared or replaced. From the unwelcoming treatment at the door to the poor service, undercooked food, and refusal to make things right, this was one of the worst brunch experiences we've had. We will not be returning and cannot recommend this restaurant. See the image of reheated food undercooked waffles.

My partner wanted to revisit this place and i definitely wanted to explore and try this cute restaurant. There are two doors, and the main door was the one with numbers on front. Very cute and cozy. We got bae side seating and had views to the main action, the cooks! Staff were prompt in seating us and very kind. They were very kind to let us know that our food was going to take a bit, which I highly appreciate. Ordered a monkey smoothie which had Chocolate, banana and coffee. It's was very sweet and will give you that sugar rush along with coffee~ Ordered a, Make your own BREKKI which I selected the Cheesecake Waffle with fried chicken side which was +$8. My chicken was juicy, crispy outside, and a good portion. It was missing some kind of spice, so I had to add hot sauce and ketchup. I just felt like I needed more flavor. Chicken itself is a simple fried chicken~ the waffle was wheat, and the topping of cheesecake crème, with fruit really paired well with the wheat waffle! Didn't need any syrup because it would've over sweetened it~ Overall, good food and cute location because there seems to be plenty to do and check out in the area. This place has many drinks and I would to come back and have a girls brunch date!

Scarlet witch smoothie

Rating: 4.0 Went to try this place for brunch. It's a bit further out for me but decided to give a try. The place is located along a street full of shops which would be nice to walk around and check out during good weather. Inside is pretty small with few seatings and was busy but was able get a counter seat right away. The place offers mainly sandwiches, fried chicken, seafood, and some fusion dishes. I ordered the scarlet witch smoothie and pork belly bowl which was their specials. The smoothie was pretty good. Good balance of flavors that are not too overwhelming and refreshing. The pork belly bowl was pretty good. Fatty pork belly with soy based savory sauce paired with sushi rice, cilantros, scallions and jalapeños. The service was good as everyone was nice. They did forget my straw for the smoothie but they were busy so maybe it was just a one off. Overall pretty good place solid food options and good service. Downside is that the place is small so there may be a wait during busy times and the price was on the higher side. Would try again if i'm in the area.

Came back and still great service. I ordered a cocktail this time, and it was so delicious. My friend had the coffee milk cocktail as well and that was super yummy. I had the build your own Mac and cheese which was a bit too soupy for my liking and it's very expensive to add meats and toppings to the dish. My friend's poutine was also very yummy!

Reheated (at home) Mac and cheese with fried chicken... 10/10
Olivia B.

Holy Cow!!! I've been following this place on social media for awhile and I finally pulled the plug and tried it today. My biggest mistake was not getting this food sooner!! I got the Mac and cheese with added fried chicken for take out. By the time I got home I just needed a slight airfryer reheat. I think of myself as a Mac and cheese connoisseur and this is one of the best restaurant ones I've had in a WHILE! This will 1000% not be my last time there.

Churro Waffle
Stef S.

Giving them a second chance as everyone really seemed to love it. So glad I did. Brunch today at Rhody Roots was amazing! Let me start with the service. Everyone was so welcoming and friendly, it felt like they were friends. We had a reservation and were seated by the windows. There is so much to see inside that I guarantee I didn't see everything in this small space. I loved the eclecticness of the decor! My wife ordered the Basic Brekkie as that is her go to. This was anything but basic. The bacon was thick cut and cooked perfectly crunchy. The homefries were perfectly seasoned and crisp. The multigrain bread was a great option too rather than the basic offerings. I ordered the Hash it out. Kale, sweet potatoes, cashew creama and an egg. Wow. Just wow. It was so good that I wish I could eat it every day for breakfast. We also shared a churros waffle. They offer pancakes, waffles and French toast with 5ish different toppings. I love churros so I was surprised that the waffle not only tasted like a churro but that it had a crunchy texture like one. I'd definitely recommend it. We saw the poutine and chicken & waffles brought out and they were gigantic. They were serving breakfast, lunch, sushi and everything on their menu at 10:30am which is pretty incredible. I also liked that they have an a good variety of hot teas, local beers and cocktails. I'm already looking forward to our next visit in February. I can't wait to try more of their epic creations!

Hash it Out Brunch (with sausage instead of egg)
Jenny C.

I've heard about Rhody Roots for years but this is my first visit (to be fair, I moved across the country for two of those years, so not entirely my fault). I remember the raving reviews I'd heard when they first opened, but I forgot what their "thing" is - I'm guessing it's their ability to make anything gluten free? In any event, my husband and I showed up at 12:45pm on Walkabout Warren Sunday and didn't expect to be seated within the hour, so the fact that we were seated right away was awesome. The cocktail menu looked delicious, but my husband doesn't drink alcohol and I'm pregnant, and it seemed unexpectedly difficult to make the Lord Pumpkin (essentially, pumpkin flavored coffee with chocolate and rum) non alcoholic, so he opted for a regular coffee. I got the Hash It Out with sausage subbed for an egg (due to an egg allergy, which made most of the breakfast items - unsurprisingly - hard to order) - and I loved it. It was VERY filling. The cashew sauce (?) seemed slightly arbitrary and not very flavorful, but I really enjoyed the meal. My husband got the Scotch Egg, which I think should be renamed to Scotch Eggs (there are two!) and he ordered a waffle because he was unsure about the size of the Scotch Egg. This is probably my fault because back in my pre-egg-allergy days, I had one elsewhere and it definitely qualified as an appetizer rather than a meal. This one is a MEAL in case you're wondering. Nevertheless, my husband ate both plates because he's a champion. The pecan pie waffle was truly a dessert, and quite delicious. I would like to visit again for dinner just to see. While the writing on the walls was a little dramatic, my husband loves comic books and enjoyed the decor. See you again soon, Warren!

Drink special: Lord Pumpkin - delicious!

I've been to Rhody multiple times, I honestly can't believe I've never left a review before! It's one of my favorite local places to eat at. The service is always fantastic! The fried pickles are by far my favorite thing on the menu, I could eat those all day. The ambiance is so fun, and I just love the small-town family feel of it. Feels so homey! As a vegan, I love that they offer a pretty large vegan menu. It's so nice to have options, including breakfast all day. I'm still eating my way through everything, but I've enjoyed everything I've eaten so far! I was first introduced to this place by a friend who has celiac disease, and I love that Rhody is a safe place to eat for her. Being able to eat somewhere safe is tough for anyone with allergies or dietary restrictions, but Rhody does it well! I'll be back here again and again.

A reliable local spot for yummy brunch. I have tried many things here and enjoyed them all. Sometimes the food takes long, but everything is made from scratch.

This review is a bit late (business is good for me) but better late than never for a STELLAR place!…read more RCKB (for short) had such an interesting menu, we literally took 10 minutes just to pick out our selections. Not because it is big, but so enticing! We ended up ordering the Eggplant Parm Sandwich, the chicken parm panini, the Mediterranean slate and a chicken parm with Rosemary fries! Our waitress Rachel was not used to NY humor (a few of my corny jokes fell off the boat, so to say) but she eventually realize that I was trying to lighten up our day. Kudos to her for staying straightface. She is an excellent waitress. LOL All of our meal selections were awesome. Those rosemary fries took me to the moon! Warren is a magnificent town. This ambiance and location were just stunning. A short walk in the historic area that glowed 1700's. Love it all! you will love this place, too!

I understand wanting to do things differently - maybe offer some cool additional sauce options? But please - a lemon & some mignonette would be just fine.

We stopped in during Appy Hour for some appetizers and cocktails, which is our go to at Waterdog…read more They have a great app selection and it rarely disappoints. We ordered the mini stuffies, the hummus plate, and the fried pickles. The mini stuffies were a highlight. Loaded with Mello's chouriço and packed with flavor, they're a solid little bite. My grandfather set the bar pretty high for me on stuffies, and these came close. They have a different profile than what I grew up with; a little less bready, more chouriço forward, and the clam flavor takes a back seat. Not necessarily a complaint, they were just different from what I'm used to and were genuinely tasty. The lemon aioli on top was also a nice touch. The fried pickles were exactly what you want them to be. Crispy, well fried, and the breading actually stayed put while you ate them, which is more than I can say for a lot of fried pickles. They came with the same lemon aioli as the stuffies, which worked just as well here. The hummus plate was a bit of a letdown. We've had it many times before and it used to be a standout. This time the hummus itself was thick and pretty flavorless, more like a dense chickpea paste than anything else. The accompaniments were nice though and consisted of heirloom carrots, cucumbers, olives, cherry tomatoes, asparagus, pickled cauliflower, carrot, and a pepperoncini, all served alongside some buttery round crackers that were like a Ritz cracker's more refined cousin. The veggies saved the plate, but the hummus needs to find its way back. I suppose it could have just been an off batch and won't prevent us from trying it again. Cocktails were great, as usual. I had the Anana with scotch. I love pineapple and this has muddled pineapple and basil, pineapple juice, cracked black pepper. It's my go-to here and it delivered again. My partner went adventurous and ordered the Jungle Booby, which is built around tequila blanco and mezcal with campari, pineapple, grapefruit, lime, orgeat, and an absinthe spritz. The flavors were genuinely good, but the smokiness from the mezcal was a bit much for her taste. She followed it up with a glass of rosé and had no complaints after that. The cocktail wasn't the problem, it just wasn't her style. One of our favorite spots in Warren for a quick nibble, for a good reason.

Downright fantastic. Bywater is destination-worthy for anyone in New England…read more Cocktails to start are very meticulously and expertly crafted, and they have plenty of interesting wine offerings (including one of my personal favs in Martha Stewman). The space is quite intimate and lowly lit, but service was a little slow to start (although extremely friendly). I am a sucker for housemade pickles; I'll order that anywhere, and I was very pleased with Bywater's. You cant go wrong with any of their crudos, but the belle of the ball was the spicy crab pasta. My mouth is watering just thinking back about it. It was seasoned well, spicy, crunchy, and briny - divine.

Bywater is a highly popular restaurant that has the notoriety of being a James Beard semi finalist…read more We were very much looking forward to an excellent dinner with the family. They have a daily menu, and I've had some friends suggest this place as their favorite restaurant. We parked blocks away due to the lack of adequate parking. Once we walked in, we were greeted with pleasant smiles from the staff. The menu was short, which we attributed to a focus on quality. We ordered a French onion dip and a littleneck entree as an app for the table. We were served with lukewarm water, neither cold nor hot. The apostle John might have been somewhat disappointed (Rev 3:16). The dip was decent but was somewhat lacking in great onion flavor. But nothing to complain about. The little necks were served in a small bowl and lacked a bit of salt. Rather pricey for $26, but this place charges $6 just for bread and butter, so maybe it's just inflation? Enter the entrees. They apparently were short on chicken legs so they asked to substitute chicken breast. Two of us got burgers. First the $20 burgers, which were served with an aioli with no offer of ketchup or other condiments. In short, both burgers were terrible. Far worse than we make at home. It's always a disappointment when you realize you're paying all this extra for food you can make better at home. The buns were shockingly flat, like someone smashed them by hand. Or in a McDonald's box. Come to think of it, the flavor was similar, though overall the hamburger was somewhat bitter, salty and lacked an appetizing flavor. Wow. We all agreed they were terrible. The fries were also burnt and over salted. My daughter quit on her $30 chicken, so I tried it. The sauce wasn't bad, and it was served with a decent brocollini. But the chicken was some of the driest I've had in a restaurant, with no crisp skin and a uniformly poor texture. No wonder no one finished their entrees. And I hate wasting food. So, as much as we would have wanted to give this place a great rating, we just won't be back. The service, although with a smile, was slow and terrible. Our candle burnt out in the middle of dinner. It was never relit. Our glasses were empty halfway through dinner. No refills on the tepid water. The entrees took an hour and a half before they came out (we were warned the chicken could take 30 min). Generally a very disappointing experience. Hard to explain the rave reviews but our Saturday dinner was a sad bust. The cold wet madeleines they provided in a doggie bag didn't do anything to help. Oh well. Hope y'all have a better experience if you go here.

Everything! The food is great! The service is outstanding, and the owners are fantastic!read more

Today was our first (and not last) visit to The Hamilton Diner. We go there at 11:00am on a Tuesday…read more(day after Labor Day just to keep the metrics in place) and the parking lot was packed. We did, however, find one about 4/5 of the way into it. Entrance way is at the end of a ramp, which I would interpret as a fairly tight squeeze if I was in a wheelchair. However, there was a fellow in an electric wheelchair making his way down the ramp as we were coming up, and we all made it up (and down) easily enough with just a pause. Hostess desk is immediately in the entrance. Very personable lady said it'd be a 25-minute wait, and that was pretty accurate. I gave her my phone number and received a message to download Yelp! including a "Your place in line" feature. Benches to sit and wait - one outside and three inside. We were 4th in line, and then 2nd, and then 1st. I felt a vibration from the phone but saw no message. So I went to the desk to check, and they were ready anyhow with 4 empty tables. Seated us quickly and our waitress Ashley was there in short time. Paula (wifey) ordered some Egg Sandwich and a small order of French Toast. I ordered Southern Benedict, which was a buttermilk biscuits base, topped with a fried chicken patty, 2 poached eggs, and smothered in a creamy sausage gravy, and it came with an order of home fries. We were both very happy with the flavor and portions. In fact I was rather full and didn't eat the last 3 or 4 bites. I also had an iced coffee, which was nice and strong. The place is very much where neighbors and families meet and greet. Lot's of "Norm!!" moments. Pricing if fairly average -- it was (with a 20% tip) $45 for us two. My only complaint had nothing to do with the restaurant, but with adults who don't know how to tell a kid not to do shrill whistling in a restaurant. No more details on that. Again, not the restaurant's fault. We definitely would like to go there again, especially to order some bacon, as that, in my estimation, is a very important factor for breakfast -- I just didn't have any reason for it this time, what with the chicken and the sausage gravy.
