First time on Block Island and we had a lovely dinner in the best restaurant I could find. My…read morehusband, brother, baby, and I had a really nice evening. We started with the calamari, the singular appetizer we could all agree on. This didn't knock our socks off, we would've been better off with something else. The bread and oil to start were lovely though, I just wish they didn't charge for refills. For our entrees, I got the seafood fra diavolo that I really enjoyed. I wish it would have been a little spicier and the shrimp had the tails removed. My brother got the salmon with rice and veggies, which was simple but well executed. The winner was my husband with the lobster mac and cheese. The two bites I was allowed were the best lobster mac I've ever had. I regret not ordering it for myself! The staff was nice, patient with the baby. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Overall it was a very nice meal, a little pricey for what it was, but still. Would definitely recommend, especially the lobster mac!

The place is quite big yet quite small. The chefs are amazing. As packed as the place was, they…read morekept up with it. They work in front of basically half the tables and always keep their cool. With as busy as they are, they don't have an enormous menu and I feel that it's better that way. I'm not sure how often they change the menu as the online page showed slightly different meals. The wait staff are plentiful and it's rather amazing how well they keep up. The way my family and I were treated upon arrival was extremely disappointing. The male host was unnecessarily disrespectful and unwelcoming from the moment we walked in, despite us being polite and having every intention of dining there. After getting a reservation online and returning, the female host/manager was also a little rude and dismissive toward us at first. That only added to the uncomfortable atmosphere we felt. Even the bartenders didn't acknowledge us. Staff would catch eye contact with us and just keep going. Thankfully, the experience improved once we were seated. Our waiter (Cam) was genuinely kind, professional, and attentive throughout the meal, and the food itself was excellent. The chefs clearly know what they're doing, because every dish was prepared beautifully and tasted amazing. It's unfortunate that such strong food and service from the waitstaff are overshadowed by the poor attitude at the front of the restaurant. A little basic respect and hospitality toward guests would make a huge difference. Growing up in the hospitality service (restaurant) then working in retail to aviation. We're all taught from the beginning. A person walks in, greet them with a smile and let them know you'll be with them shortly. Not ignore them then to be slightly rude. We all understand being busy. But don't take it out on the customers. Especially when they didn't cause your stress. I'm giving them a high score because Cam and the chefs were amazing. Even the chefs said goodnight to us and thanked us.

The tuna was cooked nicely rare and the sandwich had quite a bit of flavor. We opted for the side salad, which was a very generous portion. We also tried the Greek salad with smoked chicken as an add-on. Salad was crisp, but the smoked chicken, while it had a nice smoke, the texture seemed more like a canned chicken. Nice large portion, but I would skip the chicken next time. If we could give a 3 1/2 we would, but Yelp doesn't allow it. This is our second visit to the Poor People's Pub and the first visit, during season, was far better. We'll definitely try it again!

One of my favorites is the pepperoni bread - this years wasn't super hot but it was still delicious - the marinara sauce is traditional delicious tomato sauce - so good for dipping! Everyone loved their food and gave it 5/5 stars! I wish the house salad was more traditional with iceberg or romaine lettuce - but that's maybe just my preference! It's on church street and just off the craziness of the main drag so we usually find it easier to get a Table. It's a cute, mostly outside BI style restaurant...something I look forward to year after year!

When I mentioned it, they brought me an extra shot so I could actually taste something, but of course I was charged extra for it. I understand paying for an additional shot, but what bothered me more was the response when I mentioned the original drink. Instead of just acknowledging what I was saying, our waitress basically told me I was wrong because she watched the bartender make it. It just felt unnecessarily dismissive and honestly made me feel kind of stupid for even saying something. The sushi, on the other hand, was REALLY good and definitely the best part of the meal. I also ordered the steak with vegetables and unfortunately it was pretty bland and just wasn't good in my opinion. The location is obviously beautiful and I can understand why people go, but between the drinks, service and my entree, I was pretty disappointed. I'd go back for the sushi, but that's probably about it.
