    arugula salad, CMR
    Abby D.

    Great local sandwich and breakfast spot. You can tell a lot of Rhode Island locals come here often! My arugula salad was delicious. I wish the chicken I added on top was a slightly bigger portion. Their sandwiches are definitely the way to go- the CMR was like a thanksgiving meal sandwich. Loved the Brie and huge amount of turkey. Super friendly service, would definitely come back to try their breakfast!

    First time we've been back since they reopened after the fire. As exceptional as always!!! You can understand why it's one of Taylor's favorites in Westerly. This morning I had the homemade biscuits and gravy. Rich, creamy and packed full of flavor. The breakfast burrito was packed full of flavor. Service was great, inside looks great. Love the blue. And of course we had to purchase some fresh baked goods on our way out. Can't wait to have my s'mores cookie later tonight. Be prepared to wait for a table, moves quickly and honestly so worth the wait.

    So, we consider ourselves lucky grateful geese to see The Cooked Goose reopened! Stopped in today for my favorite lunch; Joyce's Egg Salad Sandwich filled with egg, lettuce, bacon, Major Grey's mango chutney all on toasted pumpernickel bread. Perfect side, ruffled potato chips and an ice cold coffee brew. This isn't all. The grand finale is one of the best slices of key lime pie this side of Watch Hill!

    Aphrodite sandwich

    My friend and I had a fantastic breakfast here a few years ago so we decided to see what having lunch here was like. Friendly waitstaff and decent ambience. Food was very good, but a little disappointing. The Aphrodite bagel sandwich was absolutely delicious. Smoked salmon was high quality as were all the other ingredients. You can also choose the type of bagel (I chose "everything"). The quiche was decent but was lacking in flavor; it could've been cheesier. The brownie was disappointing because the last time I got it, I received a huge portion and there was a giant stripe of peanut butter running down the middle; now it's smaller and just has peanut butter chips. I suppose you can blame inflation, but I would have paid more for the one I had a few years ago. The lunch was nice, but I personally think that this place is better for breakfast; I highly recommend the vegetarian Eggs Benedict. But all in all, it's a pretty good restaurant.

    Service is always spot on. Maddy is a gem and always goes the extra mile! Today we had blueberry pancakes, bacon, fruit cup and breakfast tartine. Place is looking fresh since it reopened!!!

    Besides the amazing breakfast options, this spot is the place to be! Our hostess was so sweet and endearing, and most of all, super funny. We barely had a wait even though we walked in around 8:15 AM with the whole family of 4, maybe 2 additional sleepyheads joining later. I would like to share there's free parking available. I genuinely had a wonderful time here. Did I mention that it was our wedding anniversary! And this cafe made it even more awesome! :) I believe our waitress was so calm as my whole party agonized over the menu and needed time to peruse the many choices available. I loved the fact that the waitstaff patiently checked in to see if my family and I were enjoying ourselves. That was heart warming when they asked if we would like more coffee or any additional items. It felt like home, and it's no surprise that this restaurant/cafe had a huge community of regulars. And the food...how can I describe it? Big portions made with love. My hash browns felt like nostalgically good, crispy, crunchy goodness. It reminded of every time I begged my mom to buy us hash browns especially due to the high oil content/high satisfaction rating. The sausage was huge and juicy in my cooked goose platter. I loved it! There was so much cheese and avocado. It was delicious and so yummy. I had to take the hash browns to go. They were spicy tingly and flavorful! Our table was given a huge carafe of coffee...so another helping of kindness, so they let us decide how much caffeine we needed to function. Very subtle attention to detail. Also ketchup, srichrcha (spelling?) aioli, sugar options including substitutes, butter, half & half, all available for us. My visit was really an experience worth cherishing that heart just melted. I was already having a difficult morning, and it was so relaxing to see people just being patient and caring! I saw a gentleman to my right having a breakfast platter with his dog, some families with cute babies, and a friendly group of ladies happily speaking about a recent wedding they attended, so all in all, it just had a great vibe. I highly recommend this spot when you are in Westerly, Rhode Island!

I did a mojito for my cocktail which was good. For appetizers, we did the calamari, tuna tartar, and Parker House rolls which were all delicious.

I settled for the more plebeian hanger steak which at any random restaurant can be anywhere from meh (mediocre) to excellent. This was EXCELLENT! Tender and tasty. Loved it. I decided to come backcountry the next morning and sample their breakfast fare. Equally delicious. So satisfying.

    On our way to Maine to visit relatives, my companion and I thought a stopover in the peaceful…read moreseaside village of Watch Hill, Rhode Island, with dinner at the famous Ocean House, might be the perfect start to our extended weekend. While the hotel offers several dining possibilities, there is no question in my mind that Coast is their culinary chef d'oeuvre. My dining partner and I found their New England-inspired cuisine to be not only beautifully presented but also absolutely delicious. Throw in an award-winning wine list, friendly & personable service, picturesque view of the Atlantic Ocean, and a most satisfying evening at table awaits. Be advised, however... What also awaits is a pretty hefty hit on your pocketbook, as our five-course prix-fixe Degustation Menu - with several choices included - was priced at $145.00 per person, plus beverages, tax & gratuity (there is also a similarly priced vegetarian menu). If you want to add the Reserve Wine Pairing, which I did, that will cost you an additional $125.00 per person (Grand Wine Pairing an additional $250.00 per person). Definitely not what you would call a cheap date. That being said, however, in my opinion - and that of my companion as well - dinner here is well worth the expenditure. Our first course was the Ninigret Pond Oyster "Pan Roast." Sourced from a local coastal lagoon that is linked to the Atlantic Ocean and Block Island Sound, Ninigret Pond is home to several reliable oyster purveyors. I must confess that I have never been an enthusiastic fan of bivalves in general - and raw oysters in particular. However, the pan-roasted representatives sampled here, smooth & buttery with a touch of sweetness and sprinkled with Royal Belgian Osetra Caviar, were quite good indeed. And the Ruinart Singulier 18th Edition, Blanc de Blancs, Brut Nature, Champagne, (France), proved to be the perfect libationary accompaniment. But even better was the outrageously delicious Bluefin Tuna Tartare. I have tasted this dish on numerous occasions; however, this particular incarnation was in a class all by itself. Gently caressed by avocado and kissed by golden kiwi and a beguiling carrot ginger reduction, the result was a presentation that was pleasing to both eye and palate, and a highlight of our evening. The 2019 Tegernseerhof Loibenberg Riesling Smaragd Wachau (Austria), of course, added immensely to the enjoyment. The next course presented us with a rather interesting conundrum... the choice between two equally appetizing possibilities. My dining companion, of course, went immediately for the Seared Scallops & Foie Gras. I, on the other hand, decided to side entirely with the carnivores... Kuro Farms Wagyu Strip Loin. Companioned by short rib, confit carrot, and Sicilian pistachios, this was a winner all the way... as was the wine selection, the 2020 Aslina "Umsasane," an enticing blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot from Stellenbosch, South Africa. The dessert course was especially noteworthy, a Blackberry Sudachi Entremet aided and abetted by white chocolate mousse, lavender, and raw honey sponge. A rather unusual denouement, I must admit, but a lovely presentation and irresistibly scrumptious. And, once again, the wine selection - 2018 Domaine Huet Le Mont Moelleux, a Chenin Blanc from Vouvray, Touraine, in France's Loire Valley - was right on the money. The Bottom Line: An exceptionally fine dining experience. Pricey, to be sure... but, in my opinion, worth every penny. A restaurant to which my dining companion and I would gladly return. Highly recommended on all counts.

We started by selecting the 7 course ($245 pp) menu which promised to be a culinary delight chosen by the chef. The first 3 courses were from the cold appetizer menu - they were served all at once (rushed), and had a vinegary, distasteful flavor. We then had 2 courses from the hot appetizer menu - one was 2 small potato buttons (again, with a vinegary flavor) and the other, a piece of very good lobster (served separately which was better). We then had 1 item from the entree menu (wagyu beef) - small, fatty but flavorful, and virtually no sauce and 2 Barbie-size asparagus heads. The dessert was a flavorless jelled chocolate ring - with a dab of forgettable ice cream. We have always been delighted with the extraordinary surprises from the kitchen - this time, it was a total disappointment in every way - presentation, flavor, and portion size. The servers were confused (failing to bring cocktails & wine on time). The bread was the best part but don't ask for more (it's rationed 2 per person)! Their once fun "per dish" wine pairing is reduced to "per course" and not worth it (3 glasses). Additionally, the room location has changed. No longer do you have the refined and ocean-forward experience, now only some guests MAY see some water. Our table was adjacent to their other restaurant, with a curtain separating us and the noise level was not acceptable (we even had difficulty understanding our servers). There was virtually no recognition of a birthday celebration at our table (there's always been something "special" for the guest of honor). The little confections for all were a nice touch, but lackluster. For 5 of us (7 courses each, total of 4 cocktails, and tip) it was $1800.00. We left sad, disenchanted, and hungry (not like the old Coast). We won't be back unfortunately, and don't recommend it to anyone - many better options.

The GPS led us to a parking lot, with a good number of spots and Nana's was 20 steps away. They do have a patio with a few tables but because it was raining, we went straight inside. When we arrived, there were only a couple parties seated, but by the time we were mid-way through our meal / leaving, the place was packed. Our server helped us with understanding some of the items on the menu and also warned us about some of the iteme they didn't have, like pepperoni, mushrooms, and donuts. With that in mind, we ordered risotto balls to start and the pesto egg and cheese sandwich (baked fresh eggs, pesto, cheddar cheese, lemon aioli, brioche roll) and Dijon and lemon chicken salad sandwich (slow roasted chicken thighs, lemon aioli, herbs, local greens, pickles, and side of fries) for the main meals. The Yaupon iced tea caught our attention since it has indigenous tea with rotating fruit fusion so we ordered one just to try it. The risotto balls came out a little sooner than the other items. We loved the crispy outside, but not a huge fan of the inside since it was mostly risotto with not enough cheese or something to glue it all together. The sauce tasted like a fancy marinara - it was tart, lightly sweet, but a tad acidic and herby too. In our minds, we imagined our main plates looking differently, but I think it was mostly because we didn't do a good job of reading the menu. The pesto sandwich was good. The eggs reminded us a lot of a quiche-spongey and light. It did not have a strong pesto flavor. The roll seemed homemade; it was good and airy. The Dijon lemon chicken salad sandwich was okay. The chicken thighs chunks were tender, and I could definitely taste the pickles, lemon, and Dijon. I think it needed more salt or even something sweet to balance out the acidic flavors. The bread was well toasted. The fries were delicious with the right amount of salt, crispiness, and variety. The iced tea was not our favorite as it tasted overly sweet which might've removed any fruit flavor. The staff was very attentive, they have lots of tables and high chairs to choose from, and lots of natural sun coming through the large windows.
