They really went down hill for quite a few years straight, but I'm excited to say twin willows is good again! They have food, and the food is back to how it used to be, not only edible but actually enjoyable. Fish and chips is great, Mac and cheese is nice and garlicky like it used to be and I'm liking the pretzel. Super happy they got it together because this was a place that was really near and dear to my heart. read more

After a long day of driving for my girlfriend, we settled in RI for night and looked for a place to eat. I found the Paella on the menu and I needed to try that. Seafood paella in RI, it has to be good, right, well it was. The espresso martini I had was not my favorite. The side order of Brussel sprouts does not say it has bacon on them. This was disappointing for my girlfriend who has Alpha Gal and cannot eat red meat or pork. While she couldn't eat them I went ahead and did and they were good. Service was great. No issues there. The manager or owner also stopped by all the tables to check in and that was a nice touch too. read more

We did take out and it was good! Shrimp Fra Diablo over linguine 8/10, Stuffie 6/10, kids fish and chips 7/10, kids buttered pasta 9/10, clam chowder 10/10! The tartar sauce was exceptional as was the coleslaw. They tossed in the cubiertos so that was helpful as well. It was full full full when we went to pick up the food. It was a rainy day in Narragansett. Would order again! read more

Buck a suck happy hour is very good and definitely fresh shell fish Barbara the bartender is excellent great service and always a smile read more

Always good. Our go to for 24 years! They need to bring back free refills on soda, please. read more

This restaurant is definitely not 3 stars at all. I have been coming to this restaurant most summers since I was a kid. I definitely think the food quality improved. The New England Clam Chowder they make is hands down my favorite no doubt!! You MUST try the clam chowder if you go here. The calamari is delicious however it's a small portion for only 3 people at most. The inside of the restaurant is a sports bar theme and the outdoor patio is really nice with some cornhole games as well. The service is pretty good, it seems like the servers also help out with other duties so they might not be that attentive all the time. Prices are on the higher side. Overall this is one of my favorite stops in Narragansett for dinner because you can drive right down the road to Brickeleys for dessert as well! Overall this should be probably 4 stars on yelp! Reading some of the one star reviews I noticed some were unfair, particularly a couple that were regular customers and had one bad experience. read more

Chose to eat outside on the deck as it was a beautiful day. Within a few minutes someone was there to take our drink order. Returned and took our food order and it may have been 10 minutes and our food was ready (it was around 3pm). I had the fish and chips and as other reviewers have said it was better than excellent. Perfectly cooked, crunchy outside, soft and moist inside. Very generous portions of fish and fries. The tartar sauce was a bit different and I chose not to use it but it was not missed. Our waitress was very attentive. Will go out of my way to eat here again and would love to try other things on the menu but the fish and chips was so good, I'm not sure I would! Friendly, casual atmosphere. Highly recommend. read more

Had a wonderful lunch with two friends at Twin Willows. I had the haddock francese... couldn't have been better... my companions had fish and chips... excellent and shrimp tacos also excellent. Our server was wonderful, too. read more

Everytime I do take out with the fish and chips,the fish portions are smaller than when I eat in the restaurant..also either the coleslaw or the tartar sauce is missing. Why aren't all meals created the same. read more

We've just gotten home, and I felt inclined to post this. This restaurant deserves to be recognized for its excellence. It is nice to promote the positivity of any great restaurant when so many people do the opposite. I am usually a tough critic when it comes to restaurants. I used to run one. I 100% understand that it's Labor Day weekend and the whole general area is extremely busy. I came away impressed with the service as well as the outstanding food quality there yesterday, specifically on Sunday before Labor Day. I couldn't believe how busy it was, and even more so, how the service handedly kept up with it. We sat at the bar to get a drink while waiting for our table. I am thinking to myself they are way too busy to get to us and then, much to my pleasant surprise, a young gentleman came over to greet us. I was in awe of how friendly and accommodating he was, especially in the face of adversity. He was still smiling, friendly with customers, and able to casually converse with them at the same time. I believe that multi-tasking is the most challenging aspect of the restaurant business, and doing it in the face of adversity during a hectic time was truly impressive. We felt at ease in a busy environment. We decided to forgo the reservation and sit at the bar. We figured, why wait for a table when we can sit right away and eat? I have been to enough restaurants to know that I am unlikely to receive better service, even if the server is in a slow section. When I visit restaurants near my hometown, the servers and bartenders are most likely on their phones and neglecting their duty of service. Everything we ate there was amazing. It was clear that the Chef was excellent and certainly knew what he was doing; describing him as outstanding would be selling him short. The seafood was extremely fresh. That is not always the case at places we have visited in our habitual summer stays in the Narragansett area. We always stop at the Twin Willows. It has always been one of the main places we go while we are here for the Summer. We would have gone habitually anyway, but after this delightful experience, we will become summer regulars, opting for other places with the same subpar results. When you find a place with exceptional food and service, why risk deviating from that? I won't curse but forget the other Narragansett restaurants. Twin Willows is the best one and it is not even close. I love it and most importantly, my family loves it from my wife to my three children. I cannot fathom that there is anywhere I can bring them that makes them nearly as happy as I am when I am chowing that Billburger. How it gets better than that is a mystery Sherlock Holmes could not solve. Needless to say, I VERY MUCH highly recommend this restaurant. read more

We went there for the first time and LOVED it! Our bartender/server, Barbara, was super friendly and efficient! My husband thoroughly enjoyed his Turkey Panini, and l LOVED the Fish Tacos. We both substituted a Caesar salad for the fries. We are amazed at how big the salad was and how much cheese they put on them. We will definitely go back! read more

Beautiful bar. They have many beer on the tap, and the food was good and fresh but the kitchen close very early read more

Atmosphere is a 10. Food is a 2. Had the worst meal there. I had a crab cake sandwich which had the worst texture-- mush. Someone else had the chick pea wrap which was right out of the freezer box. The kids had chicken tenders (also frozen and reheated). Fries were not hot. Yuck. And expensive. Best to just drink there. read more

This is a spot that gives a locals only feel. So sometimes it can feel a bit unwelcoming. Service is always hit or miss at this place. We keep going back because my husband likes their beer selection and I love their clear chowder. They are running on a limited menu due to COVID. Unfortunately, the clear chowder didn't make the cut. We will be on hiatus from Twin Willows for a bit. read more

After 22 years living in south county, i decided to try Twin Willows. It was 7:45 pm and upon arrival i was told that the kitchen was closing and i had to order right away. When the food arrived the server served from my right to my husband across the table. As a result he spilled the chicken juice from the plate his left hand all over my lap. There were apologies but it was awful! No one offered to comp my dinner or even pay for an iced tea!. I was wearing white pants! Never again! read more

The best lobster dinner I have had on the east coast!! My wife had a burger and she loved it so much!!! The service was AAA+++++, we didn't get get servers name but she was flawless. The restrooms were spotless and the restaurant was also!! Thank you read more

Twin willows was always our go to place since my husband and I attended URI. We did not visit last because friends told us it had gone downhill. Decided to go this year on our vacation. It was great. Mert burger was smaller than before but what hasn't shrunk on size. The rest of us had the fish and chips. That was a huge portion. Everything was good and the waitstaff was attentive. Glad we decided to go again. Will be back! read more

We arrived in Wakefield for vacation on Friday night and was looking for a place to eat. This was close to our AirBnB so we decided to give it a try. Pretty huge space with lots of tables. The decor could use an update. Staff was friendly but was slow with service. Our server forgot one of our friends entree and was honest about it. She took it off the tab. I order the calamari app for the table & a burger for myself. Burger was mediocre and calamari was horrible. The buns of the burger were too greasy. The calamari was soggy and also bland. Nothing memorable about both. My boyfriend ordered the buffalo wings w/ fries and enjoyed it. This spot seem like it would be fun to watch a sports game and grab a few drinks but I wouldn't eat their food here. read more

Worst dining experience ever. 20$ steamers came out smelling like sewage, dry, and cracked. Then the lobster rolls... 26$.... were half of a hot dog roll that was not wven stuffed with lobster meat. The fries that came on the side were stale, cold and inedible. When asked to speak with the manager, he was condescending, and seemed like he couldve cared less. Too bad, this was always our (and our beach club friends) go-to place. Never.Again. read more

I have no idea why this place gets lower reviewers. My husband and I had a great experience. The food was fresh and tasty hubby had a steamed lobster that came with pan fried potatoes and wilted spinach with garlic which is a nice change from regular sides. The clam chowder was homemade and very good. read more

Our waitress was the greatest!! Very sweet and very accommodating. We had a loud birthday party next to us but that was I guess ok. My wife and I both ordered steamed lobster. First time both came uncooked. Second time one came uncooked.... The chef absolutely told our server that they were. To get two good lobsters took the best of five. This can always happen and am not upset. What upset us was the fact that the owner or manager ever came over, was walking around the deck several times. Not that I would expect anything but do you think he could have at least bough us a drink? Or an apology? The bill was $150 and took almost 2 1/2 hours while having the loud party right next to us. We will be back but I think poor judgement on the restaurant not to come over was a mistake. read more

The sports on the tv and the loud building showed the culture of Rhode Island. The service was fast and efficient, and the food was good.

My boyfriend and I stopped in for a quick bite. He got super salty mozzarella sticks and I offered a chicken parm sandwich. It wasn't on the menu but the waitress assured me that they could make it. A chicken breast, cheese and a little marinara on a hamburger bun and a few fries was my meal. Imagine my surprise when I got the bill and was charged$22 for my sandwich! I asked the waitress to check with the manager to make sure I wasn't charged for the meal. She returned to tell me that that's the price of the sandwich. That's what they always charge. I am all about supporting local businesses. I go out of my way to do this year round. But for an appetizer and a small sandwich along with a soda and beer for$50?! Their hamburgers are around$12. Apparently their chicken is worth much more. Not worth it, won't be back. read more

Not sure what happened but here is the nightmare of the evening trying to get dinner with friends: 1. 20 minute wait to sit 5 at a table for 4 2. Another 20 minutes for proper side table 3. Apps delivered cold 4. Waitress comes over after apps delivered to state no silverware was available and needed to wait for dishwasher to finish 5. Dinner items unknown when they will come out...could be 5 minutes, could be 20 Just ridiculous one minute after another. If it happened to us it could happen to you... read more

On a beautiful Saturday afternoon, we drove to Twin Willows in Narragansett, RI for a bite to eat. Normally we make reservations, but a change of plans had us winging it at Twin Willows. Fortunately, we were seated right away at a requested outdoor patio table. The staff was friendly and energetic and helpful in narrowing down our menu selection by answering questions and provide guidance. We first opted for the cajun salmon burger and selected the sweet potato fries for a $3 up charge over regular fries and instead of mixed greens. I did order the mixed greens as a side salad. While the salmon burger was delicious with nicely sliced avocado on a softer kaiser roll and the sweet potato fries were crispy and a healthy service size, the side salad was disappointing; very small, warm, and the raspberry vinaigrette dressing looked more like a gel than a liquid. The open faced caprese was a huge portion of tomatoes served over prosciutto covered tuscan bread with burrata cheese, EVOO and balsamic drizzle. A choice of salad or fries was also an option and for an additional $3 opted for the sweet potato fries, too. Two really good meal choices that left us both full and satisfied. Prices were very reasonable and the food quality better than expected for a restaurant and sports bar type atmosphere. Twin Willows is recommended when in the area. read more

I used to spend a LOT of time here when we were at URI .... never for food and never during the day. I remember a few years after graduation we stopped in for lunch and were shocked to realize there were windows - and we were near the water! LOL Anywhoo, so when a old school friend was in the area, we all decided to meet up here for lunch on a Friday and see how the food was ... I mean they didn't serve anything other than potato chips and snacks when we were in school. I had heard from local friends that it was way brighter and cleaner than our school days, and the food was pretty good. It looked basically the same, yes much brighter, cleaner and they had expanded the space, but still very much the local watering hole it always was. The long bar was partially filled with people having a quick bite or a beer, with the big window tables on the other side were taken by small groups of people for lunch. I ordered the Bill Burger - $9.00 - (Single patty, mayo bacon, lettuce, tomato, onion, Add onions rings $2.00). The burger was ok, cooked medium rare/medium but nothing special. I added the onion rings and they were not very good. Super hard crust and flavorless, so I left most of them. I should have ordered the hand-cut french fries!!!! I tried some of my friends and they were awesome. They had the skins still on and were cooked perfectly - best fries I have had in a while !!! Friend ordered the Avocado Turkey Wrap - $12.00 - Turkey, Swiss, mayo, tomato, avocado, lettuce,, honey mustard. Add hand-cut fries $1.00. She said her sandwich was fine - not the best but not the worst. She also LOVED the french fries so home run on those! Other ordered a bowl of the South County Clear Chowder - Bowl $7.00 and said it was really good. So would we come back for the food? No, but it was really fun to reminisce and go back to the college days. Food 2.5 stars Reminiscing about our time at URI? 5.0 stars but once was enough. read more

We have been on a bit of a seafood tour of New England and this has actually been my favorite so far. I had the lobster roll (hot vs cold) and it was actually all lobster and delightful. My friend got the fish sandwich while another friend got the special. She wasn't a fan of the "stuffie" thinking it was too salty. It did taste a little too much like breadcrumbs and/or Thanksgiving but locals tell me that's actually how it's supposed to taste. The clam chowder was thick and creamy. Great service too. read more
