    Seared Black Cod
    Jackie D.

    Exceptional food and great for special occasions. The seared cod was cooked to perfection over a nice blend of sauces that added to its freshness. The hanger steak was also great. Personally may opt for a filet mignon next time, as I prefer the cut and taste of that cut more; however, still yummy! The potatoes and broccolini that came with the hanger steak was cooked skillfully with some crispy bits and salted perfectly. The place is quite cozy inside, so I recommend making reservations ahead of time. Overall, a great dining experience!

    This was a lobster based pasta. Not at all what I expected and didn't enjoy it.

    I have come here twice on business travel. The first time I enjoyed my meal much more. The cocktail was made approximately that time, the food was perfect (a carbonara type dish), deviled eggs and salad. The second time, the deviled eggs were still in the menu and good, but the pasta was different and they claimed to know how to make a whiskey sour with egg white, but they brought out a 16oz glass of liquid I couldn't identify. The ambiance is nice if the weather allows for the patio. It is quant and nice for a team meal but the menu changes often and you can't guarantee that one good meal means the next meal will be good.

    We had a wonderful time at Waterman Grille! We came here as a celebration and it did not disappoint. Drinks were innovative and delicious. Food was all very well made. Parking was very ample. Food can be a bit pricy but the environment is very nice.

    One of my favorite places in Rhode Island- I love the food, ambiance and the service! I always order the calamari and the burger special they have on the menu (French onion burger this time). I enjoy the great view of the water while dining- and today I had the pleasure of sitting in the upstairs room! Keep it up Waterman Grille! I do miss the big pickles that used to come with the burger, but still delicious. Also, there was a wedding downstairs so it was a bit busier than usual but still excellent and plenty of parking!

    We were seated upon arrival for our reservation and given the choice of inside the dining room or in the covered/heated porch. We chose the porch as it was less crowded and quieter and the temperature was pleasant even though outside temperature was below freezing. Our waitress was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu and the specials. We were offered bread which was delicious, soft and crusty with wonderful butter. I got the Mezcal Lime Rickey as a cocktail and we shared the calamari and shoestring fries for the table. Both were great and came out quickly. I got the hanger steak, served with fingerling potatoes and broccolini. For dessert, I had the salted caramel sundae. Fantastic experience.

    Dinner was excellent ! Service was great. Food was amazing ! Highly recommend the Korean chicken wings literally the best wings I've ever had in my life.

    Update- Waterman Grille is still as good as it has ever been! I absolutely love their burger! I also love their appetizers: calamari, mussels or clams depending on the season! Fantastic drinks, lovely service, great ambiance, and if you get a window seat- a superb view! I always look forward to an evening at Waterman Grille!

    Service: wonderful service. Our waiter was very kind and thoughtful. Food: Deviled eggs - very delicious. Nothing super special, but a good classic deviled egg. Korean chicken wings - 10/10! Paired with kimchi that was perfectly cooked and a yummy sauce. Hanger steak - very good but could have used some sort of sauce on the side. I had it cooked medium but next time I would order it medium rare. Cod - soft and moist. Light flavors that were a great balance to the Korean fried chicken wings Shrimp pasta dish - shrimps were cooked perfectly and the pasta was light but creamy Drinks: Eastern influence cocktail- too different for our taste! Very sesame forward Noble Rhode - SO GOOD! Very beautiful color as well :)

    Karen Elizabeth scallops with the most delicious succotash
    Rachel R.

    Went here in Sept for dinner. The ambiance was charming and even though we didn't sit outside, our spot along the outside edge of the reataurant was cozy and nice. I had the scallops dish with succotash. The succotash was delicious and had a depth of flavor on it that you rarely get to experience. On top of all that, our waiter was also great and a lot of fun. I'd definitely go back for another meal!

    Clam Chowder
    Jessica B.

    Disappointing. However, I may have a skewed view as I came here for a corporate work event as opposed to "regular" dining... My company held their annual "holiday party" here. There was a custom menu with 2-3 options to choose from for apps, entrees and dessert. I picked the clam chowder, marinated filet and chocolate mousse. The clam chowder was very bland and an oddly small portion size served in an equally-odd large bowl. The filet was drowning in red wine and had a peppercorn-like crust which tasted like rocks. It hurt my teeth to bite into it. At least it was cooked to a nice medium, even though I was not asked how I wanted it cooked. The potatoes on the side were extremely salty. And the chocolate mousse was nothing special. The best part was the small crunchy chocolate balls, which there was not enough of. The "regular" dining experience here may be different, however can't say I would recommend for an event :(

    We sat at the bar and watched the NFL game. Rebecca took great care of us. Everything was phenomenal ...job well done! Negronis & espresso martini with tequila repo was the best we've ever had. Calamari & hanger steak cooked to a perfect med rare +.. We are from Vegas and eat out a lot. We haven't had service like that in a long time. Thank you!

    Ask the Community - Waterman Grille

    Is there a dress code?

    There were a variety of outfits worn by the people we sat near from shorts, pants, T-shirts, polos, etc. We ate lunch so it might be helpful to contact the restaurant if you have concerns.

    Is there parking?

    Yes, I believe the lot that is about 1/4 mile away is their lot or general free parking. Easy to walk to and from.

    Are there gluten free options?

    Yes

    Are your cheeses pasteurized?

    Yes, most of our cheeses are pasteurized although sometimes we have special cheese featured on a cheese plate that is not. If that is the case, your server would be able to let you know.

    Are there vegan options?

    Yes! We have a delicious Roasted Cauliflower entree which consists of a cauliflower-almond puree, red quinoa, raisin emulsion and toasted almonds.

    Am I able to bring in my own bottle?

    A BYOB website says YES, but there is a $15 corkage fee.

    I came here as part of Providence Coffee Crawls. I had been here before and loved my experience, so…read moreI was looking forward to visiting again. The first time I came, it was a rainy weekday and this time it was a sunny weekend, so I was expecting an even larger crowd; and my prediction was correct. The line was just out the door but because of their awesome staff, the line was moving very quickly. While we waited in line, we could watch them making pastries through the glass, a couple feet in front of us. I admired that level of transparency. When we were third in line, the kindest lady asked us whether we'd be eating in or taking out and she took down our name to help us find a table when it came time. She did the same for the rest of the people in line. She also gave us some recommendations, including the cinnamon bun - apparently they're so good kids cry when they sell out. I didn't intend to order anything with my drink, but I couldn't get the cinnamon bun out of my head so I ordered it along with my iced spiced chai latte. The hen (I think it's their logo) on the aprons of the employees are super cute. We did secure a table. The tables are close together to maximize the number of people who can sit down but I didn't mind. I love their art all around, mostly of birds which I am obsessed with. I love that they have a lot of natural lighting coming through their tall windows. I also like the navy blue and white theme they have going on. The chai latte was perfect. It was the right color (a dark tan), meaning the ratio of tea and milk was good and I could taste a lot of the spices. The cinnamon bun blew my expectations away. The second my teeth made. contact with the icing, it was a magical feeling. I couldn't quite put my finger on what it tasted like, but the closest I got was dulce de leche. It is truly unlike any other cinnamon bun I have ever had. The dough is soft and there is a good amount of cinnamon. It's also $4 which is not bad. I had a bite of their canelé, which apparently requires a lot of work to make. It was very moist, with a great caramelized finish. I am super excited to try their new weekend dinner menu, but also more of their all day menu items.

That lasted about 30 seconds…read more The owner (adorable, by the way) was walking around checking on tables and making sure everyone was happy. It feels like her place in the best way -- warm, proud, hands-on. Pastries are legit. Super buttery, flaky enough to make a mess, clearly baked that morning. No sad, sitting-around-all-day vibes. Ordered the breakfast sandwich and that tomato jam needs to be illegal. Sweet, savory, slightly tangy -- it completely makes the sandwich. I kept trying to figure out how to recreate it at home. Not happening. Crispy chicken sandwich was properly seasoned and not dried out (why is that so hard for some places?). Fries were solid too -- crispy, not limp. And the kale salad with roasted chickpeas and chicken made me feel like I had my life together. Fresh, simple, and actually satisfying. It's one of those places you stumble into while traveling and then immediately start googling whether you can justify going back the next day.

Luckily we did make reservation for early dinner so we were able to find parking right away. We got there early so the restaurant wasn't open yet. We took a walk around the Westminster for a bit until the place was open. We were sat down right away. Inside is cozy with dim lights and open kitchen and some tables. They have few outside seating available as well. We started with some appetizer raw fish and combo as well as kohlrabi Caesar. We got black bass and a seasonal fish with combo that included lightly roasted oysters, shrimp and squid. All seafood was directly sourced from local port and fresh. Seafood appetizer was delicious. The caesar was interesting. I've never had kohlrabi but it reminded me of radish and it was tasty. Personally i would have preferred little less salt and olive oil so that flavor of the raw ingredient stand out more but was not too bad. My entree was the seafood risotto. Flavorful risotto with some seafood on top. Was a bit messy to eat because of the shells but was flavorful. The crab and shellfish itself was small and a bit underwhelming but the rice was rich and full of fish flavor. My mother had the cacio e Pepe which was good but she said that nothing comparable to one she had in Rome. I was not a huge fan of the thicker pasta but that's just is personal preference. Service was excellent but the table was a bit small and tight as we were very close to the next table and can hear what others are talking about so not a very privately setting. Overall i did like the place. Food and service were good. But it was not anything exceeding expectation and there were few things that detracted from our experience such as heavy seasonings, small dining space and etc... The price is quite expensive for the amount of food they serve as well. I think it's a good place for special occasions.

I ended up going alone this time, but I came back with enough leftovers and commentary to share that the whole experience could easily be pieced together in anyone's head pretty clearly. The first thing that stands out is the setup. It's casual in the best possible way. Nothing pretentious, nothing overworked. You walk up, order, wait a bit, and then suddenly you've got seafood in a paper tray that somehow tastes like summer even when you're wedged into a busy city block instead of sitting by the water. There's a kind of controlled chaos to it, especially during peak hours, but it moves. I went with the absolute classics without hesitation: a fried fish sandwich and a side of fries, plus a lobster roll that, frankly, looked like it was built for someone who doesn't believe in restraint. The fish sandwich was the standout. Crisp coating, flaky inside, not greasy in that heavy way that ruins a good fry. The bun held together without collapsing into mush, which is always a small victory in a city seafood spot. The fries were solid, nothing revolutionary, but they did their job without trying to steal attention from the main event. The lobster roll was more of a classic Rhode Island style than anything over-complicated. Generous chunks, lightly dressed, and not drowned in filler. It leaned into freshness rather than gimmicks, which is exactly what you want when you're this close to the water. It didn't feel like it was trying to reinvent anything, just execute the basics well enough that you stop thinking about it and just eat. What I like about places like this is that they don't overpromise. Dune Brothers isn't trying to be a white-tablecloth seafood restaurant, and it doesn't need to be. It's quick, it's reliable, and it feels like it belongs in downtown.

If I'm not mistaken, Friday and Saturday nights definitely have more of a club vibe after a certain time, but during the week, I've also gone before, and it's very low-lit, romantic, and honestly perfect for any occasion, especially with the type of drinks they have! Parking can be a little difficult because it's downtown, but you can always try to get street parking with a little walk. I honestly find parking down the street, and it's not that hard. There's also parking you can pay for right on the corners, so there are different ways of finding a place to park. Taking an Uber would be a great idea as well, so you don't have to deal with anything and can drink as much as you want. They do not have valet. Service: The service has always been super friendly and very accommodating. Honestly, all the times that I've gone, they've been very helpful with helping us get seats and just giving us a great experience, even with how busy it gets. This is definitely a spot that I not only recommend to everyone, but it's somewhere that I will continue to go because it's genuinely one of my favorites!

    Service was impeccable (s/o Jada, our server), food was beyond impressive- taste profile was far…read moreexceeded my expectations in how each dish ingredients while simply reading though it feels so chaotic but each bit you take feels so harmonious and angles singing not sure how to describe it better. Lively ambiance with enough pleasant noise to not be a disturbance. Coming from a NYer who loves the food scene. Would go again. See you soon, Jada.

    A mixed review here. Considering we went for brunch today,…read moreJuly 5th, I think we were sat pretty quickly. The place has a really nice, comfy decor. One of the hostesses was an absolute doll. We loved her. We sat for just a little while waiting for appetizers, and my wife discovered that her ASS REALLY HURT, badly, and mine was getting bad too, due to my lack of natural cushion back there. My wife stood up and never sat back down. She noticed a 4 top leaving and asked the hostess if we could move, completely unaware of the challenges this can pose the crew during the course of business (changing table numbers in a POS isn't always as easy as it sounds). But she agreed it should be ok. They were busy, too, and I heard that they had some staff call in "sick" after a wild 4th of July. So they took care of us and I was really grateful for that. My Mexican Corn Chicken Sando was ok... the flavors kind of got mixed together on a way that it didn't really taste that awesome to me. The wife loved her Huevos Rancheros, despite the hair she found in it (after having them change our seats, she was too embarrassed to say anything about that) and the tortillas that were so Chewy, they were inedible, she really enjoyed it. Our daughter really really liked the poutine a lot. All in all, I wouldn't rush back here, but I think our main complaint was the accursed seating. Aside from the high top, man, on the regular seats you're just sitting on a flat block of wood. McDonald's has more comfortable seating, and McDonald's intentionally makes the seating slightly uncomfortable so you don't just sit there forever, taking up a table. Anyway, it was alright. Every restaurant has its difficult days (and it's difficult customers!).
