Wedding venue
DeWolf Tavern is a high-class American eatery situated in a historic distillery, boasting a delightful harbor-view patio and an extensive assortment of rum. The service provided by a new waitress was exceptional; she was amiable and transparent about her knowledge, readily seeking answers when unsure. The steak, flawlessly cooked and accompanied by a heavenly reduction sauce, was thoroughly enjoyed. Despite not typically being fond of green beans, they were almost entirely consumed.
My husband and I celebrated our wedding at Bristol Harbor Inn on 8/10/2024 and working with DeWolf was a wonderful experience. Sherri made the planning process so easy and stress free - She went above and beyond to make sure our day was perfect. Guests loved the appetizers and plated meals, the food was delicious, and DeWolf provided excellent staff on hand for the entirety of the night. I highly recommend choosing DeWolf Tavern as your wedding day caterer!

I ordered “to go” so I could sit by the harbor and was honestly shocked at what was served. A chef cannot just toss some random vegetables with cheap blended oil and mix in plain bucatini and call it “Pasta primavera” - especially for a mid $20s entree - yet that is what I received. No sauce base, no cohesion, just a spoonful of oil barely reminiscent of olive oil with a bad aftertaste. Yellow asparagus, two grape tomatoes, no flavor, no detectable spices… at least the mushrooms were okay. I will eat just about anything and everything but I couldn’t stomach more than a few bites of this dish. I had to take it back and management was nice enough to comp me a side salad. Very disappointing. A cheap Chinese takeout place would have done it better. On a positive note, the new hostess was polite and helpful.

This was actually a surprise visit. We started at another restaurant, and left after one cocktail for several reasons. This led us to DeWolf Tavern as it was almost next door. The ( specifically Lobster Popover and Steak and Mushrooms) were amazing. The server was friendly, knowledgeable and a delight. We sat on the patio with a view of the water the beautiful summer like weather in October. We will definitely be going back to try the brunch. Definitely recommend.

My now husband and I recently celebrated our wedding at Bristol Harbor Inn, catered by DeWolf Tavern, and we truly could not have asked for a better catering experience for our wedding. The coordination and communication with Sherri (DeWolf’s Event Manager) and her team was exceptional. From the initial planning stages to the final bite of dinner, the service provided by DeWolf Tavern was nothing short of outstanding. Every detail was meticulously handled, ensuring that our guests were not only satisfied but truly impressed. The caterer was also very accommodating to multiple guests with allergies and food restrictions. On the day of our wedding, the staff went above and beyond to personalize every detail, making sure that our preferences were met without any compromise. I was very confident that our wedding day would run smoothly and seamlessly with Sherri and DeWolf Tavern and they exceeded my expectations! The whole team truly understood our vision and made every effort to ensure our day was exactly as we imagined. If you're looking for a caterer/venue that offers not only a stunning setting but also exceptional service and attention to detail, we highly recommend DeWolf Tavern.

Came on a Saturday, place was pretty empty inside. The food was great and the young hostess was exceptional!!! She was pleasant, professional and attentive, we were all very impressed with her work ethics. However our waitress was quite absent during our entire service, which was really disappointing and can be overlooked if was so dead inside.

Good size portions, with an Indian flair. They are very accommodating with switching the sides. The vegies were a little oily, and the fish had a heavy dose of pepper. They were able to meet our needs for gluten-free options, but we needed to ask about each dish as the menu didn't mention it. The sauces on the swordfish and tandoori chicken were very flavorful. Service was great.

We came for an anniversary dinner. Food was all delicious and our waitress was incredibly attentive and friendly. The atmosphere is cozy and great for a date night. We got a table upstairs with a window overlooking the water which was beautiful.

Two words: THE FLOUNDER. Omg, what a dish! Kudos to the chef on this one. I'm from New Jersey and was recently visiting my friend, who RAVED about this place and about the flounder in particular. Man, she was right, as she was about the historic atmosphere. The Bloody Marys are great, too -- thank you, bartender! Nice job all around.

Cafe
Breakfast restaurant

The Beehive Cafe is a charming eatery that offers a cozy atmosphere and locally sourced American dishes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Despite occasional visits from yellow jackets outside, the cafe's delicious offerings like the BLT and butternut squash sandwich have left patrons wanting to recreate the flavors at home. The outdoor seating provides a lovely view of the ocean and park, while indoor seating exudes a stylish yet fun ambiance.
Went here for breakfast and this place was very nice. You first walk in and there are menus to your right. You place your order and they give you a cute animal table place holder!! Then they have upstairs seating where you wait for them to bring up your food. Their food was really good and their staff is very friendly. They have a small patio on the 2nd floor and infront of the restaurant for Summer time. You have to clear your own table and place empty plates in designated area. They only have street parking.

Visited Bristol today! Had to check out The Beehive cafe. They give you animal figures as your table marker. I ordered the not your mom’s meat loaf. Definitely, not my mom’s meat loaf. The flavor had a lot of anise seed in it. I am not a fan of anise so it tasted like licorice to me. The onions were sautéed, still had a bite not very caramelized. There was too much onions as well. The white bread was toasted to perfection. The spiced ketchup was very odd. It tasted very overly sweet bbq sauce and did not pair well with everything. My hash was not seasoned and only one side was crispy, and the other side was cooked just not as appealing as crispy hash browns. My partner got the Beehive mixed salad. There was more mixed greens than ingredients, no balance between the ingredients. The balsamic vinaigrette was nice and complimented the greens. Service was great! There’s a seat yourself dining room. They only maintain the bus bucket, not really the dining room or restroom. Chia latte was excellent! Maybe they are more appealing for breakfast.

Absolutely love The Beehive! I’ve come here so many times and I can’t believe I’ve never left a review. The food is always consistent and delicious. My go-to is the avocado toast, it never disappoints. I’ve also tried several of their lattes, and every single one has been great. Lately, I’ve been hooked on their watermelon mint tea refresher; it’s so refreshing and perfect for summer. This weekend, it was super busy and we had quite a wait, but the staff was incredibly kind and accommodating. We ended up taking our food to go and enjoyed it at the park by the water. Such a great brunch experience. Highly recommend!

Finally stopped by the Beehive after passing it many times while in the area. Went with a breakfast burrito and added sausage. Thought it was okay. Not a fan of the sausage, would likely try bacon or something else next time. Gets a little pricey when you add and use the online ordering. $24 for a breakfast burrito needs to be a home run. Burrito and side of hash browns was filling.

This was easily our favorite place to eat and hang in Bristol, RI when we visited. The atmosphere was both fun and it was buzzing even though it was raining on the day we went. The egg sandwich plate was filling, but was not too much. The bacon strips were well seasoned, cooked well, and were thick. Eating upstairs was a fun experience and there's even a little deck with seating. One minor thing they could do better is orange juice. They give you a small 8 oz bottle.
Thomas P — Google review
One star off for hungry hungry yellow jackets buzzing around us non-stop while we ate outside. The Beehive can’t control them. We even offered them the bacon they were after but the three of them wouldn’t leave 🤣. I had the BLT, so so so good! Daughter had the butternut squash sandwich! She wants to try to recreate it here at home. The pan fried, spiced chick pea side was good, but dry. I know it is tricky to keep them warm but prevent them from drying out. My chocolate espresso cookie was ok. Could have tasted both more chocolatey and more espresso-y. Daughter’s lemon square wasn’t as lemony as she would have liked. But, we will be back if we are in the area again, to try other items!
Susan B — Google review
We were in Bristol for a bike ride and decided to walk over to the Beehive because it looked so cute and inviting. The menu is great and we had a hard time deciding but went with the meatloaf sandwich and falafel wrap. Both were outstanding! We love little places like this--cute patio, lots of personality, good food, not crazy expensive. The staff were lovely and we enjoyed everything about our visit. We will definitely visit again.

I was in twice this weekend. Popped in with a friend from out of town who actually told me "hey there's a good cafe we should try in Bristol." We both ordered specialty drinks and they were delicious. The carrot cake latte was particularly tasty. Also snagged a chocolate chip cookie for the road and it was good too. On the way back to the hotel from something in Little Compton, I decided to detour back into Bristol and picked up just a regular large drip coffee. It was good. Not too hot either - I could drink it right away.

The Lobster Pot is a waterfront establishment that offers both outdoor seating and an indoor fireplace. They specialize in serving a variety of surf 'n' turf dishes, including new and classic options. On a Friday night, I visited this restaurant for my wedding anniversary and was impressed by the fantastic atmosphere right by the water, providing breathtaking views from almost any table. Reservations can be made in advance, but walk-ins are also welcome for outdoor seating.
Everything about our trip to The Lobster Pot was great. We initially thought about sitting on the patio, but decided to sit inside where it was cooler. Had a seat right in front of the windows with the great water view. The service was prompt and pleasant. This was the first lobster roll I've had this season, and it did not disappoint. I do not like celery in my lobster roll and they were able to make it to order without celery, which a lot of places do not do. My husband got the fried scallops and was happy with his meal as well.

Our family of three came here for dinner. They are extremely short-staffed. The thought of having to tip for such poor service makes me very angry. We finished our appetizers and waited at least half an hour for our main course. During our meal, no one refilled our water, and only one waiter asked, ‘How is everything?’ We had to wait or call a waiter to clear our plates. When we needed the bill and takeout boxes, we waited another 10 minutes. What’s more outrageous is that an elderly person at the next table fell off their chair, and none of the staff helped them up; it was another customer who helped. As for the food, the dishes were fresh, but the lobster meat was a bit tough, the pasta didn’t have a strong creamy flavor, and the seafood lacked freshness, making it very bland. The crab cake was pretty good though. 😅 We spent over $200 on this meal, plus an extra tip. I respect all service industry workers, but I feel I should receive the service and value for what I pay. I probably won’t dine here again, nor would I recommend it to anyone.

Welcoming and inviting! Pattie sat us at a table with a lovely view, Kenny took great care of us. We started with the French Onion soup and the Bang Bang Shrimp, both took us by surprise at how tasty and generous they were. Then we got the pan seared scallop special and the baked fisherman's casserole. We went home so full and happy that we took a four hour nap! Absolutely loved the whole vibe and we'll be back soon.

The Lobster Pot was a bit disappointing. The view was lovely, but unfortunately, the food was bland. My friend and I both ordered the pistachio salmon, but we both thought it was underwhelming. We had to add lots of salt and lemon just to make it work. ☹️

I had an incredible experience. I started with an espresso martini, cocktail shrimp and a wedge salad, finished it off with surf and turf filet mignon with lobster tail.

Trusted the reviews so tried it for lunch. The hostess was very pleasant as was the server. However, service was very slow and rather inattentive. The food was just ok. Unfortunately server (Tiffany) brought salads, bread, soups and entrees all out together after a long wait. The lobster bisque was very salty (inedible) and tasted pre-made. The salads (even entree salad) were basic and drenched in dressing. The fish and chips were fine and my companion liked the salmon. Bread was basic sliced bread. The restaurant itself is showing wear and tear and looks tired. The view was fine, but could be achieved by simply walking around without spending $150 for lunch.

Thames Waterside Bar And Grill is a lively bar and grill located on the waterfront at Harborfront. It offers a wide selection of hearty seafood dishes, classic American cuisine, and delicious cocktails in a cheerful atmosphere. The clam chowder is absolutely fantastic, the best I've ever tried anywhere. Their burger is really good too, my 10-year-old couldn't get enough of it and almost finished the whole thing.
What a view! A great bar and restaurant to enjoy good food, good service, and on a beautiful day the view of Bristol Bay. I went during the week , but it was busy, so please be prepared, especially with a large group. I had the tun poke salad. It was extremely good and filling. Just be aware that it is on the spicy side. All other good that was brought out to the tables looked good, and customers enjoyed it. I appreciated that although the water came in a plastic cup, my drink was served in a glass. The waitress was nice. The upstairs bar wasn't open, but I went up to take a look. Beautiful views all around.

This place had been a favorite for years. We speculate that they either have been sold and/or are cutting corners. The setting right on the water is wonderful, and service has ranged from very good to excellent. However, bad food and other issues do not compensate for that. Our first visit for the season was a few weeks ago. My partner got a lobster roll that was a disappointment that did not even taste like lobster. I got the steak-and-cheese, which was average at best. I simply choose to not drink alcohol, and I find regular soda too sweet. However, a health issue requires limiting my diet soda intake. We returned for dinner last night. I did not want Diet Coke because of the health issue and because I did not want caffeine that late in the day. Our server told me that they usually have bottled flat water, but it took a bit to learn that they were out. I asked for seltzer and received what they told me was that beverage. It was a weird water that had electrolytes and minimal bubbles. It was room temperature at best. I had to ask for a glass. At that point, I did not want to make an issue of the fact that they brought me one with ice, which defeats the purpose of ordering bottled water. I always have enjoyed their pizza. My partner ordered the sausage pizza that looked very odd and had a mountain of melted cheese. Only a couple of pieces gotten eaten. We took the rest to go but ended up through it out outside the restaurant. I ordered the ribs. They came out room temperature at best. I liked the sauce, but the ribs themselves were not at all fall off the bone and tasted odd. On top of that, the cole slaw was a weird looking salad that I did not even try, My partner speculated that the ribs were microwaved. On top of this, I requested wet naps and was told that they were out. I am the more fussy and vocal one in the relationship. My partner was on the edge of complaining last night. Dessert was another source of unhappiness. I LOVE the cheesecake that Thames has served for years. I was told last night that they no longer sell it. On top of that, the bathroom smelled far worse than could be attributable to someone before me having an issue. It smelled like the essential outhouses in the middle of national forests. My partner and I were in total agreement that we enjoy eating out in Bristol but will be going to one of the many other restaurants near Thames in the future.

Seafood restaurant
Bristol Oyster Bar is a laid-back spot that offers local seafood and happy hour specials in a serene setting. The oysters are particularly popular, with a variety of options to choose from. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, providing great recommendations. In addition to the delicious oysters, the menu features other standout dishes like swordfish over saffron rice and tender octopus paired perfectly with sauce and chorizo.
I had only been to the Providence location before tonight, and I had high expectations for this restaurant given my previous experience. It did not disappoint! The drinks ( margarita and " the bees knees" ) were delicious! Though the drinks were fantastic, they had nothing in comparison to the tasty oysters, crab cake and the Fluke ( not pictured here). I will definitely be coming back to try more of their unique dishes and explore the town! Service was also excellent! Our waitress was very polite and kind!

What is there to say- Bristol Oyster Bar exceeded my wildest expectations! The oysters were delightful, local and freshly plucked from the sea. Also they were shucked to perfection, expertly separated from the shell and without any gritty fragments. The calamari was perfectly cooked and prepared with a unique and absolutely delicious combination of flavors- Thai chili lemongrass and sweet soy. There were chopped peanuts as well that added some lovely texture to the dish. Next was the beef tartare, a first for myself. It was expertly diced, and marinated in a wonderful vinegar based dressing with thinly sliced shallots. The focaccia toast was a smart addition to the dish and added a perfectly placed crunch to the experience. Lastly, the swordfish with sticky rice and coconut curry simply blew my mind; I will be thinking about it for many days to come. The curry broth was a complete flavor bomb, the rice was expertly cooked, and the swordfish was grilled to perfection. When everything was had together in unison as a perfect bite, it was unlike anything I’ve ever had in the best possible way. My husband and I were celebrating our wedding, and Chef Tom made a point to come and talk with us throughout the evening. Our server Samantha was sweet as can be, informative, and attentive. And Steven, one of the cooks, also came to deliver our dishes and give detailed descriptions of what we were about to dig into. I highly recommend Bristol Oyster Bar, it was one of the best meals I’ve had in dare I say years, and I cannot wait to come back and try the rest of the menu! Thank you for such a memorable experience, we won’t soon forget it!!!

I love being able to try a variety of things when dining out, that’s why this new menu is right up my alley. I started with some oysters, and then got a few small plates to fill up. I ended up leaving full and still had some leftovers. Highly recommend the crudo trio, beef tartar and brandade! If you’re an espresso martini fan like me, you will be happy to find an entire section of flavors to try, plus the bartender, Nadia, and the entire staff is wonderful! Can’t wait to come back and try more of the menu.

Bristol Sunset Cafe is a cozy and charming local eatery known for its traditional breakfast and lunch options. This popular neighborhood spot boasts a relaxed and inviting atmosphere that perfectly combines quirkiness, refinement, and playfulness. Start your day right with a steaming cup of coffee or latte as you indulge in their diverse menu offerings, which cater to all your breakfast cravings.
The Bristol Sunset Cafe was the highlight of my trip to Bristol. For those who have not been before, do not show up without a reservation. Our friends made a reservation at 8am so we could just be seated by 12. It is definitely worth the wait to go through this process to be able to go. When we arrived there was an older lady (probably a Karen) who literally made a reservation a half hour before she arrived and was yelling at the hostesses in the front because they told her she was approximately 2- 2 1/2 hours away from her table being ready. She then proceeded to go in and yell at someone, and then stormed off saying she would never come back. I was very impressed with the hostesses reactions, they were very professional. If that’s the energy you are bringing to this cafe just go home, trust me they won’t miss you. The food was tremendous, and the service was incredibly streamlined. You can tell that they have this system down easily. I had the sriracha eggs Benedict and it was phenomenal. I would go back there again just to get it. The corn beef hash and potatoes had so much flavor. It wasn’t too spicy either. The lemon blueberry French toast was also good and very sweet. The lemonades are also delicious, I would recommend trying one of them as well, they come in a variety of flavors. Can’t wait to visit again one day, thanks!

Went here for brunch. The vibe was nice, it was very busy with a long wait. The food was really good but I didnt like the homefries, they were a bit dry and flavorless. Corn beef hash was amazing.

Animated cafe abuzz with charm. They have a good sized beautifully wallpapered dining room as well as a bar you can sit at if seating is limited and you don't care to wait. I had avocado toast with a poached egg, arugula, bacon, and hot honey! I've never seen hot honey offered on a breakfast/brunch item before, but it really should become a thing. It was delicious! The Sunny Spritzer was refreshing and tasty too, IF you're a fan of coconut. The staff is super friendly and efficient. If I was staying in the area, I would definitely make this my regular haunt.

Stopped by Bristol Sunset Cafe for some breakfast. Pretty busy for a Friday. Sat at the counter. Grabbed a coffee, water and Sriracha Benedict. Coffee was good, regular cream and sugar. Would have liked to have seen some Stevia. The Benedict was good, comes with a good amount of Hollandaise sauce. Was expecting a little more kick from the Sriracha. The eggs were cooked perfect. Comes with very good breakfast potatoes. Look forward to my next dish.

She was condescending and seemed annoyed by any question that was asked about the menu. Her answers were rude, at one point even mocking my question. She knew it too because she stopped herself mid-sentence. It was uncomfortable. The meal overall was bland and lack luster, and combined with our waitresses attitude it was disappointing. But my friends meals looked good. I also think its bad form to take a person's plate away when they are still eating. I had food in my hand and she took the plate away so quickly I had no where to put it back down. Will not go back, and do not recommend. Such a shame, its a cute place with a nice menu, and all the other employees I encountered seemed pleasant. This waitress really undermines the place.

I think my expectations for this place were too high. It's a good breakfast/lunch spot but food was just average. The waitress we had was very good. She was attentive and pleasant but the hostess was not very friendly or welcoming so was a not so great vibe walking in. The atmosphere wasn't bad but not great either. This was our first time trying this place so maybe this was just an off day for them and it was a good place so will definitely be back to try again.

On my first visit to Portside Tavern, I was impressed by the diverse selection of menu options. The appetizer that stood out to me was the grilled brie, which came with pesto, roasted garlic cloves, and adorable small red peppers. My only suggestion would be to also grill the baguette slices for added flavor. While the mussels frites were average, both the broth and fries could have benefited from more seasoning.
This is the first eating here. Visiting my college buddy from Rhode Island with my roommate Andy Kelly We had a Crab Cake and Turkey Club sandwiches with pickles and French fries Service was great. Andy says you have to come for the pickles. Lol

The restaurant located along the street. The food was served in a timely manner. The food was excellent overall. The service was decent. The cost is reasonable. The moules frites aren't that fresh, but the sauce they poured in was great and creamy. It was enjoyable to listen to the locals chatting on the street in front of the restaurant. The KOREAN BBQ WONTON NACHO was the highlight of our meal.

Went here for dinner and it was such a nice vibe. Waitress was so friendly and drink was good. Be warned, you only will need the one drink because they are very strong. Food was really good. I recommend the calamri app, and the pork chops with the mashed. I would come here for a quiet/ date settings. They have paid street parking across the street

We had a walk in group of 18 on a Saturday afternoon. Not only were we accommodated quickly, our server (I really wish I remembered her name) was so friendly and accommodating. I have celiac, and she was confident in understanding the need for accommodations in the kitchen… which made me feel comfortable eating there. Everyone food was great, although the fries were a bit stale. 10/10 experience, would absolutely recommend

Classic tavern feel with a more upscale menu than traditional bar food. The two appetizers we ordered were delicious, and the lunch entrees were almost as good. The only food critique I had from this experience was that the fries were not good at all. It always makes me stop for a second to think, how could you put this much effort into all you other food items, but fries is where you draw the line, a staple of tavern/bar food. Seems like an easy fix though. A nice spot overall.

Waited 10-15 minutes at the bar for someone to at least greet us, nothing, not even "we'll be with you in a moment". Two couples came in after and were immediately greeted with menus. We still waited. Couple of locals, directed us toward other places. It's not hard to just acknowledge the customer when they sit.

Quito's Restaurant and Bar is a family-friendly seafood establishment that offers both indoor seating with a fireplace and outdoor dock seating. The food at Quito's is fantastic, with dishes like seafood casserole and seafood pasta cooked to perfection. The portions are generous, allowing for leftovers to take home. The stuffies are also highly recommended, although it's advised not to have more than one as they can be quite filling.
If you are visiting the area, Quito’s is a must try restaurant! The staff were really kind and the seafood was some of the best we have tried! The spicy calamari has a kick to it that really wakes up your taste buds. The oysters were sooooo fresh too! The lobster was a little hard to crack open but once opened, dipped the meat in the butter and it melted!! Overall great atmosphere too that allows you to have a meal by the water!

Quitos is the perfect spot to go to get dinner if you are in Bristol. I would recommend having a reservation because it is normally packed during the warmer months. This restaurant boasts a nice seafood menu with many options. I would recommend getting the lobster roll. There were big juicy pieces of lobster in it on a warm roll. You can decide whether you want to get it cold or warm. Service was great despite it being a busy Friday night. I would recommend going if you are hosting someone from out of town or for a date night. Nothing beats being on the water.

While the food is hit and miss, the view is spectacular. We were seated right on the edge of the patio by the water at sunset and got great pictures. I loved the lobster bisque, but my burger and salad were underwhelming. My wife had the cod with broccoli and it was a lot of food. We took more than half of it home. The waitstaff were friendly and attentive.

While vacationing in Rhode Island for the weekend, my fiancé and I decided to eat here one day and this is one of the best seafood restaurants we have eaten at! The food was amazing, as well as the service and atmosphere. It’s located right on the water and the scenery is perfect. The service was also great. I highly recommend the lobster bisque!! Easily the best I have ever had with CHUNKS of lobster 😋 I wish I didn’t live in New Jersey because I would definitely frequent here more often. The only negative I have is that for some reason my card wasn’t charged the full amount of the bill until 4 days after visiting!! 😳 our total bill was like $154 and for some reason only $48 was charged the day of with the remaining balance not being charged until 4 days later leaving my account to be overdrawn! Not sure why because I’ve never had that problem anywhere else, but the food was amazing so if I ever find myself in Rhode Island again, I’ll definitely go back! Only giving 4 stars due to the issue with charging my card late, but I’d still recommend the place!

Ok, let's start off with my server Lauren. She was at my table immediately after I was sat, got my drink right away. I knew I wanted the lobster roll, I was undecided on what soup or chower to get.. As she returned with my drink, I said which one.... she chimed in right away... lobster bisque... you want a bowl... if you get a cup you will want another.. Just get the bowl... I listened to Lauren and shortly there after, the ridiculous bowl of meat shows up with a light, very flavorful bisque type broth covering the insane amount of lobster meat... a hint of sherry perhaps? Bar none, no other bisque has ever come close to this quality as well as quantity of lobster.... not just random pieces, full claw meat chunks... insanity I tell you. I also ordered the lobster roll with the mayo. The roll is dwarfed and almost hidden by the illegal amount of lobster covering it, stuffed inside it, next to it... with a very very light mayo coating... perfect!!!! If i had a second empty roll, I could have made a second giant roll with the amount of lobster claw meat from the original roll. The lobster was firm and crisp in both the bisque as well as the roll.. not limp , not soggy... I believe that the meat in my roll and bisque was living a happy life in the bay until I ordered it... that's how fresh this meal was!!!!! I can't say enough about the service from Lauren as well as the obscene quantity and quality of lobster that I just consumed. It wasn't cheap, BUT it was absolutely worth the money I paid no question. Thank you my friends for an unbelievable lunch.

As out of towners due to fly out Boston in just a couple, we took a tip from a local friend that Quito's was the place for Lobster Rolls, something I'd only heard about. We got there early, and Chef Drake and crew got us squared away with excellent takeout where we each shared both the New England and Connecticut style rolls. Both where excellent, and the debate raged on over which was the best. Would absolutely recommend supporting this local small business which welcomed us with warm, inviting hospitality on a Monday morning. Wishing you continued success! Thanks for a great lunch!

Aidan's Pub also caters to families with children, providing coloring activities to keep little ones entertained.
Great Irish Pub setting! Food came out quick and was piping hot! Serving sizes were enough to share as well. Bangers and mash flatbread was absolutely outstanding (highly recommend). Other food was great as well, no complaints and full bellies all around. Stopped in after a recommendation while touring Roger Williams.

This is a local pub first and an eatery second. We ordered takeout and had to wait about 20 minutes past the time their website said it would take. However, as I waited I was surrounded by a crowd of merry people, most of them seniors. This must be a favorite of the old guard in the area. This pub has something planned every night for entertainment. Lot's of beer and lots of fun to be had there. By the way, the bartender was very hospitable. She showed a genuine interest in me even though it was so busy.

They’ll always be super hot so make sure you don’t burn your tongue like I always do. Flaky crust and the veggies and chicken tasted fresh and homemade. Delicious! Also had the New England clam chowder which was good (not #1 in the state but in my top 5). Husband has the baked cod and steak fries. Daughter had a burger. For dessert the apple pie ala mode and brownie sundae. Ohh and my husband had a Guinness. Food is excellent, atmosphere excellent and staff also excellent. Definitely a must when in Bristol, RI

So i know resturants are busy, especially on holidays.. but we got there to try it. We got seated outside in the sun and then waited 20 to 25 minutes to decide to leave. Not one server came over or even gave us water. We did get eyed a few times.. but no one helped us. On top of that we saw others getting seated well after us and then getting service. The place looked nice and we wanted to try the food. But the service was not there...

The Beach House offers a beautiful outdoor seating area with ample free parking and a stunning view. The staff is friendly and attentive, allowing guests to enjoy cocktails for hours without feeling rushed. The atmosphere is lovely, and the jumbo shrimp are a standout dish. While the seafood can be hit or miss, the octopus may not be the best choice.
Went to Bristol for a lil Bday getaway. The wife chose The Beach House for dinner because it had a diverse menu and the scenery. Plenty of parking when we pulled up. Entered the restaurant and really enjoyed their choice of decoration. They have an assortment of seating options available, low top, high top, outdoor and bar. Ok wife is yelling cause I'm taking too long on writing this lol. We ordered our drinks and the bartender made them just right. Flavor and strength worked very well together. I had the clam chowder, she had the squash bisque. She emptied her bowl before I finished mine. That never happens because I enjoy food more than her. They were extremely good. Oh, almost forgot about the pork belly tostada. Not for lack of or dislike because I will definitely order it again. Our entrees got us we were pleased with the presentation. I chose to get the salmon. I tend to eat my sides before I dig into the my main. I tried the rice. It was good and balanced. Tried the spinach, good but a lil salty. I knew the salmon was going to be sweet, so I then paired the two together and wow. It's a dish worth repeating. They had a special for dessert, chocolate mousse cake. It made me very happy because the chocolate wasn't overwhelming and it was so smooth! We were very happy to go there and look forward to our next time there.

The main attraction of the Beach House is that it's next to the water and away from the foot traffic of the main stretch. The food is definitely great, plenty of lobster and crisp greens. I wouldn't say we found a defining dish on the menu though. You will spend a little more here than at some of the other establishments in the area. We ate on the patio at sunset and it was stunning.

We recently got married at the Bristol Harbor Inn and DeWolf Tavern and hosted our rehearsal dinner and welcome drinks at The Beach House — and it was absolutely perfect. The dinner was phenomenal. The menu The Beach House team put together was outstanding, and the food exceeded everyone’s expectations. They reserved a private section at the back of the restaurant, which created such an intimate and comfortable setting for our group. After dinner, we seamlessly transitioned into a welcome drinks event in the same space. The staff handled everything flawlessly, making it so easy to bring all of our guests together to kick off the wedding weekend. Eric, the manager, was incredible to work with — attentive, responsive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything went smoothly from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend The Beach House to anyone planning a special event in Bristol.

Pomodoro Italian Kitchen is a charming local eatery, exuding a rustic atmosphere and offering delectable Italian cuisine and pizza. Getting a reservation can be challenging due to its popularity, but the experience is well worth the effort. The food is prepared with fresh ingredients, showcasing homemade flavors that are simply delightful. The service provided by the attentive waitstaff is outstanding, with an emphasis on their customers' needs rather than engaging in idle conversations among themselves.
I dined at this quaint little Italian neighborhood restaurant Friday evening. Upon arrival, we were greeted by the hostess Avery, who was super accommodating and helpful. The restaurant was bustling on a Friday night. The smells coming out of the kitchen had our mouths watering. We had a small group of 4 and got to sit in the small, but cozy, dining room. The food was excellent. Our server, Christina, was very attentive and personable. A woman that we presumed must be the manager, stopped by our table to ensure that we were having the best experience. She recommend the tiramisu for dessert and it did not disappoint! Prices were reasonable, and the portions were enormous . We will definitely be coming back!

We’ve celebrated many occasions at Pomodoro and usually love it here. Our recent takeout order was disappointing, the wrong pasta was substituted without notice, salad dressing was missing, and the response when we called felt dismissive. After reaching out, management quickly followed up directly, apologized sincerely, and refunded the items. I really appreciate how they handled it once it was brought to their attention, and we’ll absolutely continue to support them in the future.

It's a very cozy and comfortable French restaurant. The server was very kind and attentive. The only reason I took one star from 5 stars even though I liked the atmosphere, service and foods was because of a little bit of less variety of Lunch menu. I started with French onion soup. This was so good! Most of times, I couldn't finish my soup as it was too salty for me. The french onion soup here was just good enough! Not salty. I finished all. I wanted try more French like foods like Duck confit but for lunch, they serve salads, soups and sandwiches. ( There were foods which was made with duck liver mousse but it was too adventurous for me but I want to try next time!) I'm not a big fan of sandwiches so I ordered Moroccan chicken salad which was very healthy and light but good portion for me. My husband ordered Salmon which served with nicely cooked vegetables and it was delicious. I liked that they gave us several options the size of drinks. I love to have a little bit of wine with my food but I can't drink a lot and always left half of glass. But they served 3 oz of wine which was perfect for me. We had Waffle as a dessert which was delicious too. I want to come back for dinner to have French entrees next time.

Nice cozy place but has an air of sophistication with its parisean flair n food. Get the bread for two..hot crispy bread with softened farm butter n a multitude of olives. You can have as much bread you want after first order. Bread is about 6 small slices but delicious. Onion soup very sweet, with a strong wine taste, endive n roasted beet salad delicious but could use more beets. Monsier sandwich - good size n delectable, steak frites- salted fries that comes with it are so good as well as the arugula, steak is cooked to its tender state and made in wine- so good.

I’d heard whispers about Le Central’s “charm,” so I stopped in on a quiet evening expecting classic French bistro fare with a touch of New England polish. What I experienced instead was a masterclass in culinary complacency and managerial absence. The dining room was mostly empty, but you wouldn’t know it from how long it took to be seated. The host (I believe also our server?) greeted us with all the warmth of a damp sponge and deposited us at a table directly next to the swinging kitchen door. The smell of scorched butter and fryer oil wafted through with every pass. Très authentique, if the goal is to evoke a strip mall brasserie in decline. The wine list leaned heavily on markup and nostalgia, offering middling bottles priced like collector’s vintages. I chose a chenin blanc that arrived room temperature and tasting suspiciously oxidized. When I politely asked if it had perhaps been left open too long, I was informed, without irony, that “it’s supposed to taste like that.” My entrée, the duck confit, was presented with all the flair of a microwave dinner. The skin was flabby. The interior was dry. The plate was ringed with an inscrutable smear of something orange that I was informed to be sweet potato puree. It might as well have been squirted out of a Gerber pouch for all the flavor it lacked. The side of pommes frites arrived limp and pale, with all the texture of cafeteria hash browns left under a heat lamp. I left most of them on the plate, though our server didn’t notice or didn’t care. Dessert? A crème brûlée that had clearly been torched in a rush. The top was patchy and barely crisp, while the custard underneath was ice-cold in the center. Charming. When the check arrived, it felt like the final insult: $70 before tip for one person, one disappointing meal, and one long drive home wondering how anyone in charge here feels pride in this experience. I’ve eaten at bistros in Paris, Boston, and even tiny Vermont towns where the food is plated with love and served with presence. Le Central seems content to ride on its past reputation, and it shows. Would I return? Non. Would I recommend it to anyone who actually enjoys food? Absolutely not.

My wife works here and has a great deal of respect for the owner/chef. We are a military family and have moved around a lot. Hearing the praise of the chef and trying the leftovers that she brings home after the end of her shift--his dishes are incredible. My wife has been telling me to come in, and we were finally able to do it. I asked her if this is his form of artwork, and she replied, "yes." The combination of flavors is perfect. My wife praises this place because everything except the dinner rolls is farm-to-table. He makes everything, even the ice cream desserts. I've never seen that and I've been all over the world! This place is well deserving of a 5 star rating, just knowing the quality of product and the care given to his artistic creations. Amazing!!

If you’re looking for top tier authentic Italian, you’ve found the right place. I’ve lived in RI for 5 years now and this was hands down the best Italian food I’ve had since I moved here.

I think the food is fairly priced, you get a good amount for what you pay for. I even have leftovers! The bread is so good with the oil and roasted garlic aswell!! At the end of the night, we were too stuffed for desert. But, one of the lovely waitresses gave us some to take home with us on the house! It was such an amazing experience and we’ve decided to definitely come back, especially for special occasions. The food was good, but the staff was even better. too bad i can’t rate this place a 100/10 lol!

We stopped in for a drink and snack on wife's birthday. The bartender from Louisiana was so sweet and we're sorry for not knowing her name, but she was wonderful. The niso seasoned fries with lemon aioli were excellent and refreshing! A huge thanks to the gentleman who picked up our drinks for my wife's birthday! And by the way, the Guinness was as fresh as it gets! Definitely going back here to follow up on our first visit, and to check out some of the music!

Came here after Blythwood Manor. What a treat. The owner and Erin were very hospitable. The food was excellent. They were out of the tots so we ordered Mac and cheese. I loved it that it was penne pasta but my husband would’ve preferred that they were traditional. He had to stop me from eating the whole plate. Good thing I took a hard nap at home. Great place and can’t wait to come back.

Small local bar and pub like menu. Server was friendly and attentive. Place wasn't too busy yet around 6 pm on a Saturday so we got right in. Small menu selection, mostly sandwiches and small plates. Food was pretty good. I really enjoyed my burger. Wife had a chicken sando and she said it was ok. Fries were really good too. Decent beer selection. I think the prices are a bit on the high side but probably pretty standard for the location in downtown Bristol. Would go back another time and try to catch some music. Cool spot.

Been a staple on Thames st for quite a few years now. Great Thai food. All the ingredients always fresh and delicious. The crispy Pad Thai with chicken is a favorite.

Nestled on Hope Street, Bristol Bagel Works is a beloved local gem that has been delighting patrons for 30 years with its freshly baked bagels and pastries. This charming bagel shop offers a delightful array of breakfast options, including egg sandwiches made with real eggs and classic bagels topped with your choice of cream cheese or jam. While the seating area may be small, it boasts large windows perfect for people-watching along the parade route.
Arrived at 8am on a February Saturday. Busy but enough time to chat and help a first timer. SO happy there were Asiago available and selfishly bought all four flavors. Friendly service and plenty of tables to sit and enjoy the deliciousness of the Harbor Special, classic bagel and lox on your choice of bagel. Totally worth the 20 minute drive from Fall River. Will return.

Super tasty bagels, great pricing and friendly staff. It seems like this place is super popular with the locals. The only thing I think could be improved is efficiency of the behind the counter staff. The wait for the bagels was insane, and according to a local is very common. I think he said “if you want to kill an hour, come to Bristol Bagel Works.” While we didn’t wait an hour per se, it was probably a good 20-30 mins with only 6 people ahead of us. I would definitely come back if I was in the area.

They truly have the best bagels, fantastic coffee drinks as well. A lot of places do one or the other well but not both. They have iced chai tea, green tea fruit refreshers and brewed tea which a hard to find for those of us who can’t have coffee. Great place to sit inside our outside on a nice day. A must visit when in Bristol.

I don't enjoy complaining, leaving a poor review or even a bad one. I've enjoyed coming to this location for years and as of late it has not been great. Today especially. I come in at least 1x weekly order a couple of bagels with cream cheese and they have barely any on either. So today I ordered my usual, and then asked for extra cream cheese on 1. I paid I believe $.75 extra even and furthermore provided a tip. I additionally purchased a 16.9oz Vitamin Water and am appalled that I paid $3.25 when this is not even the regular 20oz that I would expect to pay that price for. What I received and what I paid for was less than the "barely any" in recent weeks. I do not mind paying a little extra as long as I receive what I paid for. Today the staff seemed unprepared and overwhelmed. Its unfortunate because I absolutely love to support small local businesses and it's more so unfortunate to be overcharged, unsatisfied and unhappy with what I paid and what I received. I will likely give this place probably 1 more shot but it certainly won't be for a very long while.

A basic coffee and bagel place. Small coffee and a (your choice) bagel , sausage, egg, cheese cake just under $10.00. Breakfast sandwich is made fresh to order. The coffee was hot!

Years and years coming here, raving about it. Then a remodel to the establishment did more than face lift the interior. For months now, It seems to have affected the quality of both service and food. Week after week, ordering the same two bagel breakfast sandwiches, they have yet to get it right. The eggs are underdone, cheese is cold, bagel barely toasted, and missing add-ons that I’ve paid for. I love the local business, small town vibe, and local regulars I see there, but the quality to price ratio is keeping me away now. Sorry. Good luck with your experience.

Absolute worst breakfast experience ever. Took 20 min to get acknowledged when we walked in. They have 2 underage kids taking orders and waiting tables. (10-12 years old). Breakfast took over an hour to come out and was all cold. Then the toast must have been somebody's leftovers. Its so hard as a rock. Definitely retoasted leftovers. Not once did anyone ever check on us or refill any drinks. Then we get a bill for almost $90.00 for 4 nasty breakfast plates. Just very bad service and food. Never ever again. 😡

Terrible experience last weekend! We arrived at 9:45 AM We had a party of 4 and waited 20 minutes for a table, which was fine. We knew they were busy, it took about 15 minutes to order. Someone did come around with coffee thankfully because by 11:30, almost 2 hours after arriving, we all left . We noticed a table sat after us and received their food first. Our food was not even being prepared yet we ended up going home and in 20 minutes I cooked the same thing we ordered. Will not go back. All the hostess said to us was that we should have known there was a wait.

Waited over an hour to receive 2 new pieces of toast and 2 old pieces of toast that were clearly retoasted and crumbled like a cracker. Must’ve been old toast that a previous customer didn’t eat and it was retoasted then gave to me. Didn’t come refill drinks one time.

I will say this, everyone is very nice and I have had very pleasant customer service experience. Unfortunately I feel that the chefs don't take pride in what they serve. I've had many overcooked meals including a chicken sandwich with burnt and inedible chicken. I know mistakes happen but if a cook sees that they have burnt the food they should make it again instead of assume it will be fine to serve. I also had a turkey sandwich before that was so overcooked the turkey was disintegrating into tiny bits. I'm unlikely to order food from the wave again Unfortunately. Not trying to be mean because everyone there I'm sure works hard and is very nice.

Speechless… the saddest wings I’ve ever seen, looks like they came off patient zero of bird flu. Also checked to make sure they were full wings (drums and flats) because $14 seemed expensive for 6 individuals, and was assured “yes, they are drums and flats”. Probably 3 oz of meat for $14… despicable…

This was going to be 1 star review if the food wasn’t so dang good! We understand how busy things can get on a Friday night especially considering the stated wait time was already over an hour but we waited well over half an hour extra standing patiently and we were only spoken/acknowledged once when we first arrived and paid. It would have been nice, especially considering how relatively large and expensive our order was (and given COVID concerns) if we were at least told to wait in the car and called the number we provided when we made our order. Instead we were ‘hangrily’ waiting around by ourselves. In all, this place has AMAZING food, GREAT portions but could maybe work a bit on their customer service to prevent ‘hangry’ customers from a 30 minute standing wait. To say the least, we will definitely be back.... on a better day. 4/5 rating.

We walk in to a nearly empty restaurant only to stand in front of the door for almost 10 before we were even acknowledged. Then we were asked if we had a reservation. I said no and after I was given a lecture on how i should have had a reservation, I was told it was going to be a 20 minute wait. A 20 minute wait just to be seated in a dining room that was 85% empty. She brings out one piece of bread for two people, the food was mediocre at best, and the dining room hasn't been dusted since the Regan era. Nothing like it was years ago. It's a shame.

I wish there was a zero star rating for the fact that this place treats their employees. The owner there has a double standard where one of the employees was wrongfully terminated because she had a Dr appointment for her child and had her shift covered. The owner down right was rude and the way Cora talked to the employee was down right degrading forcing her to come in. The employee did everything they had to do and got stuck in Providence traffic and wasn't able to show up but her coverage did and for that the employee was fired.

Environment is chill, low-key but with a certain air of class to it. Prices are very reasonable all things considered. Very pleased with my recent visit, which happened to be my first - Chris the barkeep whipped up a great mezcal cocktail (pictures) which is on special this week! He's a great guy and made me feel right at home despite my being from out of state. I also thoroughly enjoyed the Blues & BBQ theme (Monday) - great tunes and some unexpectedly great BBQ. Had the "three meats" which included brisket, pork and chicken - see pictures of food and menu. I did not expect such good BBQ from this area, and I'm pleasantly surprised! I'll certainly be back next time I'm in Bristol, and I wholly recommend you drop by for the Blues & BBQ nights!

Went to the statesman tavern for the first time tonight and its one of the better places around Bristol, especially for the prices. The food was very good. I had the butternut squash bisque and the chicken sandwich. I didn't want it breaded or fries so the chef was accommodating and made a nice plate with salad and grilled instead of deep fried. Atmosphere is nice and the soundtrack is awesome. Great place for anyone that wants to have a nice night out...solo or with people.

Cabral Gourmet Chicken Inc is renowned for its delectable wings, dinners, and an assortment of tasty accompaniments. Their quahog stuffies are unparalleled in flavor and the entire menu offers great value for money. Customers often pair the stuffies with zesty lemon, cocktail sauce, or even hot sauce for an incredible burst of flavors. Moreover, their fish and chips are another exceptional option for a satisfying meal on-the-go.
We went in to check the place out and grab a quick bite. The woman who waited on us was abrupt and appeared to be in a bad mood. When we payed with our card I stood there waiting for my receipt but she mumbled something and then threw it away and then gave me a verbal dismissal. As we sat and ate with no complaints about the food, the two gentlemen behind the counter were very respectful and one of them politely verbally greeted every customer as well as wishing them a good day even though he was very busy. So he compensated for the woman's demeanor. He also patiently answered all questions from customers. So for him I give this place five stars and maybe the woman was just not in a good mood which we are all entitled to not feel well (if that was the case?) but it's still customer service. Because of his infectious good nature and the food was good we may return and I still recommend you give it a try.

The chicken tastes like chicken like it should but the rest of the I did not like at all it was like an average person's home cooked food I wasn't impressed it's not worth the try if you ask me they just have the locals that are loyal the first time I had this cabral's chicken was in 1996 it was good then but I was told that they sold a place to somebody new and that could be why it's not the same The Taste and quality I think went downhill the people are nice yes the own is very nice but does not mean their food is good sorry just given my honest opinion I had a whole chicken Chinese pie stuffy macaroni and cheese egg potato salad you can get a chicken at Stop & Shop and you won't taste different it's really cheaper at Stop & Shop

I had the worst turkey and cheese sandwich from this place. The turkey was so thick almost like a burger and had minimal toppings. There was more turkey little to none lettuce and tomatoes. Mayo was barley there and I only took two bites because I’m starving hoping I could finish it but i was too grossed out. Tasted horrible! The employee was very nice though and professional.

While I understand cost going up everywhere, for the price I could have gone out for dinner. Specifically asked for and was charged for extra tzatiki on the side. Not the first time. I delivered for 10yrs as a living. I called and was told it would be about half an hour to get what I asked and paid for. I don't mind paying the delivery fee for the convenience of not leaving my house. However, as my food gets cold waiting it is upsetting. I drove to the restaurant and got what I asked for on my own because it was a heck of a lot quicker. I tip very well because I know what it takes. Food is still good and pretty consistent. Not sure I will order delivery again. Driver very courteous and polite as was staff when walked in. Just not a fan of paying delivery fees and still having to drive myself to restaurant.

🔥 Warning: This place serves buffalo chicken medium rare and not on purpose. Ordered the buffalo chicken pizza twice (because I believe in second chances)... and both times the chicken looked like it just escaped the coop. I gave up and went for the cheese pizza, but even that dough was giving "still rising" energy. They made me wait over an hour just to hit me with, “Oh, we thought you were picking it up.” Really? Y’all couldn’t call or text? Service was as raw as the meat. I still tipped $3 (because I’m too nice), then saw a sneaky $6 charge hit my account two days later like a ghost tip. Safe to say they can keep their mystery meat and surprise fees. I'm all set. ✌️🍕🐔

Grade A I love the Pizza here. When I come to Boston, I have to drive Providence for the Lobster at Hemenway's & Bristol, for the pizza from Classic Pizza 🍕. Amazing crust and even the small is large enough to share. This time one of the pizzas we tried was a Bacon and Tomato 🥓 + 🍅 pizza which was amazing, it was the owner's (Vatche) recommendation. I definitely recommend you try.

I recently dined at Cafe Central, a Portuguese restaurant, and let me tell you, it was an unforgettable experience. The steak sandwich I had was truly remarkable - the best I've had in a very long time. The food overall exceeded my expectations, and the pictures on their website perfectly captured the delectable taste. I highly recommend trying their pork and little necks dish as well; it's simply amazing.

Authentic Azorean cuisine! Must try the Chicharros (Stickleback Fish), packed with flavor! Raw Littlenecks on the Half Shell for a starter are a great price compared to other local restaurants. Free Papo Seco's (Portuguese Bread) and butter basket. Get a house bottle of wine to share, it is worth it. They offer a side salad or soup with most dishes. Their Bife à Casa (House Steak) is packed w/ flavor, heavy on the garlic and delicious. The Carne de porco à Alentejana (Pork & Clams w/ Potatoes) is good too, but the pork is usually a little dry. Sandwiches are a great price for what you get. Don't forget to add some of the House Steak sauce to dip your fries! Overall 8.5/10. Dining room is typically a little warm for comfort, but other than that it is clean and servers are prompt.

Sakuratani Ramen & Izakaya is an adorable eatery with an authentic Japanese ambiance. While it does have a trendy vibe, it's not overly off-putting. The menu features six appetizers, four of which are quite basic, but the squid balls and mozzarella sticks are surprisingly delicious. The Ramen bowls are visually appealing, although the taste doesn't quite match up to their appearance.
Hands down the best ramen I had outside of Japan itself. The place has a really nice atmosphere, very friendly staff and great food. Highly recommend to any one who would like to try or miss authentic Japanese ramen.

Excellent ramen bowls. Had read about this place & definitely wanted to try it . Recently had the opportunity to stop in for lunch after finishing up an appointment in Bristol. I ordered the miso pork ramen with garlic oil. What flavors. The pork slices are so good. They marinate the pork then use a cooking torch to char the meat. It is so good & tender. The broth is soothing with that umami touch. Staff is friendly & very attentive. Will definitely try it again. If your in the area it’s worth the trip.

This place has a nice calming atmosphere. Big enough to not feel tight but still cozy at the same time. Ramen bowls are pretty good. In comparison to other places over been to I’ve had ramen with a richer pork broth. The pork, while good, wasn’t as tender as other places. Overall I would recommend this place if living near Bristol and needing a ramen fix. The staff and atmosphere are great.

The experience started so/so where the women who seated us was giving a bit of a time with seating 2 people with a baby, we requested a bigger table for the extra chair an room for bags. Eventually we were seated at a bigger table. The shrimp an veggie tempura was great and had a light crunch but held together nicely & cooked very well. Honestly I've tried alot of them and here easily the best. The Kani salad was really good another item I frequently have. My fiance loved it and pointed out that it not having a leaf of lettuce was better while I thought it needed the leaf so ur last few bites can roll it to a hand roll. The sushi was better then good but not great. All the flavors where there but the sushi would not hold together. So we ditched rhe chopsticks and went in with the all hands teams. The ideas and concepts behind the sushi were great and flavors stood out. If they made the sushi more sturdy and not falling apart would be a 5 star place for me Service was absolutely excellent as far as our waitress and was great with our baby really the whole atmosphere on the deck was great and relaxing. I recommend an will come back

Up next was sashimi tartar, another awesome dish and great portion. To drink we had the sake sangria! We are already looking forward to returning as this is our new go to sushi place! Also want to give a shout out to our server Makenzie, she was excellent!

Baba is not just the best sushi in Bristol RI, it's also the best sushi in the Newport/Bristol area. The prices aren't even that bad considering the quality of fish you get. The service never disappoints -- you get your takeout when they say it'll be ready -- and the in-house service is very good as well. I've had a surprise birthday party there and it was a wonderful memory. I look forward to dining on their back patio overlooking the water with my family this summer.

A good friend recommended this place. I have to say the miso soup was some of the best I have ever had. I tried a smattering of rolls, hand rolls, and some nigiri. Octopus nigiri was spot on. Rice roll was a bit plumper than I'm used to, but that seems to be a theme. I tried a shrimp tempura hand roll. It was very good. Visually it was huge, I discovered this particular hand roll for them is wide at the top and doesn't go all the way to the bottom of the nori cone. Beautiful and flavorful. The spicy yellow tail was very nice. Again presentation was a ten. They had a heavy hand on the wet mix, but it had solid flavor and still let the fish shine through. Avocado tuna roll was probably the best one I have ever tasted, and that says something because I eat a fair amount of sushi. The tuna was a bit blockier and shorter than I expected in my hand roll. Again a solid roll, just not portioned the way I expected it, but a pattern of better than average portions is emerging.... Tried a special called the firecracker roll. Basically a shrimp tempura makimono style with an amazing seemingly beefed up siracha sauce. I considered asking for more on the side, but really had nothing to put it on. Then I had a yellowtail jalapeno roll, I think called the Celtic, it was tasty, and visually very nice. On a whim I asked if they had green tea ice cream, they didn't, but the ginger ice cream was great. It had a custard like consistency, and was literally sundae size, and had whipped cream and chocolate sauce. To be fair I didn't look it up on the menu and just requested it adhoc, but never expected it to be served like a huge, and I do mean huge sundae. The serving vessel was kind of cool looked like an over sized ladel gracefully made of white china, and as a bonus was clearly chilled. I did have water, but saw some awesome looking drinks being slinged out from the bar. I didn't look at the drink menu, but suspect I missed out a bit. My only complaint was the service, they were rocking, it was just after dinner, and they had most every table on both floors and decks filled except for two in the upper dining area. I was a single diner (at a two top) and I wasn't drinking from the bar, BUT... I really did feel left out in the cold. I waffled on my tip amount and still went generously, because I am hoping it was a fluke. I will try it again, I might bring my spouse, but I would be sure to set a fair expectation that it could be amazing or it could be amazing and have just ok service. For the pricing I kind of felt it should be amazing with amazing service, but again the food was amazing, delightfully different then I expected, but amazing. My only other pet peeve was the drink menu and specials were handed to me and a little table tent of plastic with a qr code was handed to me for the rest of the menu. I know it's on trend these days, but honestly I wanted to sit and enjoy the atmosphere and not have my darn phone (digital leash) in my hand. I would have preferred a menu be offered. The bowl for soy sauce was adorable. I have never seen one this shape before and although I usually don't use the bowl I tried it just to see how I liked it for my octopus nigiri.

When I walked in I was immediately drawn to the chocolate chip cookies. I had to buy some. Then i saw the Butternut Squash Calzone which was just like their cafe locations sandwich. Amazing! We used to live in Bristol but this was my first time in this shop in over 5 years. They do an amazing job. Ali, one of the bakers makes incredible goodies! I will be back more often! Thank you to the BeeHive for being a constant gem to Bristol.

Would love playing pool here if it weren’t for the confederate flag on the wall. Seriously don’t feel comfortable giving you money because of the flag. The vibes of the bar are great otherwise (for me, a white person) but I have several friends who avoid this bar because of the flag and what it represents. Please take it down!

A great neighborhood bar with a nice selection of ice cold beers, TVs, pool tables, and dart boards. I have never had the food, but other patrons seem to like it. It is also one of the only bars in Bristol that will turn the music down and TV up so you can see and hear a sports game. P.S. Not meant for snowflakes like Nimby Pimby.

Seriously?!? A confederate flag hanging on the wall? I was considering this place and checking out reviews and then confirmed through the pictures that you apparently have a large confederate flag hanging on the wall. Unbelievable. Take it down and be more considerate and welcoming of all.

First time in my 59 years living in the area that I checked this place out. I love a good hole in the wall and this place is all of that. Went specifically for a fund raiser. Nice crowd, good people hosting, excellent music. With that being said, if you're hosting an event and expecting a crowd, you might consider having adequate staffing and staff that is not totally miserable and rude.

Chinese restaurant
Asian restaurant
Nestled in the charming town of Warren, Luke's Inn is a culinary gem that specializes in serving up some of the finest Chinese and pan-Asian Polynesian cuisine around. Diners rave about their round-noodle lo mein, fluffy dumplings featured in classic wonton soup, crispy eggrolls bursting with flavor, and sweet pork fried rice that leaves you wanting more. The generous portions combined with reasonable prices make it an exceptional value for food lovers.
Luke’s Inn is hands down the best Chinese restaurant within a 50-mile radius. I’ve been eating here for over five years now, and I have to give them credit, they are remarkably consistent. Every time we visit, the food quality is the same: hot, fresh, and flavorful. I’ve personally never had a single quality issue, which says a lot (though of course, nobody’s perfect). If you’re someone who loves eggs or bean sprouts in your fried rice, just a heads-up: their rice doesn’t include either. I do wish they added those, but honestly, I still enjoy it for what it is. The sweet and sour chicken is absolutely perfect crispy, golden chicken pieces that are amazing to dunk in their addictively good sauce. The crab rangoons are always delicious and never burnt. They’re wrapped in a way that’s not overly bulky, so you could even pop one in your mouth whole (if that’s your style). And the egg rolls? They’re the best I’ve ever had. Period. Excellent place, can’t get enough of Luke’s. Definitely stop by! (Sorry for the bad photo, we didn’t think to photograph it— just dug right in!)

Order came out before I could take a sip of water. Both apps and entrée were served within 5 minutes of ordering them.

Absolutely LOVED our experience at Basil & Bunny — this place is a plant-based paradise! 🌱 We tried the Crab Rangoon Burger, the IMPOSSIBLE Bunny Cheesesteak, the Backyard BBQ Chicky, and the Clam Cakes made with oyster mushrooms — and let me tell you, Delish doesn't even begin to cover it. Or as I like to say: MmmmmmmMuthsfnmmmmmmm! 😋 Each bite was bursting with flavor and creativity. The Crab Rangoon Burger was a wild flavor ride — creamy, crispy, and packed with that nostalgic rangoon kick. The Bunny Cheesesteak? Total comfort food with that satisfying Impossible meat richness. The Backyard BBQ Chicky brought the smoky-sweet heat and was piled high with all the good stuff. And those Clam Cakes? Unreal. The oyster mushrooms gave them the perfect texture and flavor — I had to double-check they were really plant-based! From the bold menu to the friendly vibes, Basil & Bunny knocks it out of the park. Whether you're vegan or just into great food, this spot is a must. Can't wait to come back and try the rest! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

The Crow's Nest Restaurant is a laid-back, nautical-themed waterfront eatery in Warwick that has been run by the same family since 1994. The restaurant offers a triumphant mix of fresh seafood, excellent wine choices, and a variety of shellfish. With its scenic views over Apponaug Cove and Greenwich Bay, the decor and menu reflect a strong nautical theme.
Another spectacular find off the beaten path. Sat at the bar and service was fast and attentive. The food was top notch, however the shrimp were the only serving that could have been warmer. The scallops and fish amazing. The acron squash which is one of my favorite also could have been much hotter. The portions were huge. What a wonderful stop and this is definitely in my repeat rotation. Overlooking the water on a clear sunny day was so enjoyable.

Recommended for seafood and they didn't disappoint. The clam chowder was excellent, paired with clam cakes I really enjoyed. They had a friend outside with a soft inside, great texture and flavor. We got the baked seafood platter and the Quahog, scallops and shrimp were standouts. There is a lot of breading/cracker crumble on the different items. More than I'd like but I suppose that's a key component of baked seafood here. Delicious none the less. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The restaurant itself is modern and aesthetically pleasing with a big vibrant aquarium with live coral. I'd eat there again. They have a large outdoor patio and bar.

For an appetizer we got the Portuguese stuffy, which is the best stuffy I've ever had. Got the fried scallop and fried clam combo which comes with two sides. I picked onion rings and cole slaw. For dessert I got the canoli. Everything was great. Can't wait to hit this place again.

I was only in town for one night and was staying at a hotel near the airport. I chose the Crow's Nest (10 minutes from the airport via Uber) because it was next to the water. Next time I am in town I will go back for the food, the service...and also because it's next to the water. My server, Olivia, masterfully guided me through the must-have Menu items if you are a first timer in Rhode island. I started with the RI Little Necks (1/2 price during happy hour) and NE clam chowder. Then, Olivia suggested/insisted that I have my first lobster roll. Boy, am I glad she did! For my fellow Pennsylvanians, the lobster roll is basically a hoagie on a grilled bun stuffed with chopped lobster "salad" (think chicken salad but with lobster). AMAZING! If providence finds me back in the area (see when I get there), I will definitely return to the Crow's Nest!

If you leave hungry, you ordered wrong! The clam chowder was delicious—especially with clam cakes dunked right in. Fresh bread and butter to start was a simple but perfect touch. The lobster roll was an easy no-brainer along with the meaty supersized shrimp. Everything hit the mark!

Excellent little place with big time flavor! Wife had the chicken Parm and I had the veal alla Gina and both dishes were perfect. Beer selection is a bit thin, but we were able to find decent options. Wait staff was also excellent, recommending multiple dishes and easily explaining intricacies of both dishes.

This was pretty good! The waitress was super polite and attentive, the Shirley temples were delicious and we got super soft complimentary bread with butter! The appetizers were great as well. The Caesar salad was good, just nothing remarkable. The wait was also pretty long, but I don’t think that is a normal thing. Overall, if you can’t find anywhere else I would stop here however I think there are better places in the area.

My friends and I were up there for a Porch Fest and we went in to check the place out and grab a drink. We needed to use the bathroom first and they gave us the evil eye. The manager was really rude. Inside is dated, unattractive, and no bar area, so we had drinks outside. My friend decided to get food. Some of our other friends joined us. We moved two outdoor tables together, to accommodate 7 of us. The manager came out and said we can’t do that. My friends all ordered food and seemed to like it. I just ordered Prosecco, which was a good choice. Small portions didn’t impress me. The waitress made a mistake and and gave my friend regular fries with her sandwich, we had clearly asked for sweet potato. She came out with a plate and scraped the wrong fries off my friends plate with her other food on it, and brought out a separate plate with the sweet potato fries. Honestly, ANY good restaurant would’ve left the other fries. I’ll never go there again. Way too many great restaurants in the area to waste my money there.

The Italian Baked Fish was outstanding! I was hesitant to order it as I don't like an overwhelming marinara sauce. Instead, it was light, yet very tasty letting this perfectly cooked fish stand out! I ate every bite along with the mashed potatoes and excellent spinach side. The calamari appetizer was also very good and the sauce was perfect for dipping their lovely bread.

Sorry about the bad review Leo's Restaurant but every word is true. Just want to add that my girlfriend and I aren't food critics but go out to dinner at least twice per week and have logged some serious time at Italian restaurants from Providence to Boston (but mostly on the South Coast). Arrived to be seated outside with reservations. Chairs were located in a pile of dried leaves from last fall. Had to move them away from the building to see my feet. Waiter was OK but at times inattentive. Bread was brought with a small ball of butter. Girlfriend and I didn't have side plates or utensils /napkins so we waited... and waited until I finally got up after 15 minutes to chase down waiter's assistant to ask if she could help us. Meals were not up to par with the ravings of other Google reviewers. Chicken Parm and Chicken Marsala had all the moisture pounded out of them. They were tough chewing and neither on of us finished out of chewing exhaustion and bland taste. Girlfriend had to search for any sign of melted cheese on her Chicken Parm. The sauce on my Chicken Marsala was watery and I was unable to discern whether it was made with dry or sweet Marsala wine. Needless to say, we didn't stay for dessert. Very disappointed on a beautiful night at 7pm last Friday. Needless to say, we won't be going back.

SS Dion offers a dining experience that balances a cozy, high-end ambiance with exceptional service. The atmosphere at SS Dion is nothing short of delightful. Nestled in a calm and inviting setting, the restaurant exudes a serene charm perfect for a relaxed evening out. Despite arriving earlier than our 4:30 PM reservation, we were graciously accommodated by the hostess at 4:00 PM, a testament to their attentiveness. Today, on the eve of Thanksgiving, the space maintained a low-key, tranquil vibe. Its balance of affordability and sophistication makes it an attractive option for diners seeking a budget-friendly yet high-end dining experience. Customer service is where the restaurant truly shines. Our waitress, Megan, was nothing short of exceptional. Her attentiveness was evident throughout our meal as she ensured that every course met our expectations. She thoughtfully refilled our water, expedited food delivery, and offered insightful menu recommendations. Megan’s friendly demeanor and dedication elevated the entire dining experience—a clear standout in hospitality. She unquestionably deserves recognition for her impeccable service. The complimentary bread served upon arrival was a delightful beginning. Soft and fresh, it paired wonderfully with the butter and spicy sauce, setting a promising tone. The highlight of the meal was unequivocally the chicken wings. These were among the best I’ve ever had—tender, fall-off-the-bone meat bursting with flavor. They easily earned a perfect 5/5, showcasing the kitchen’s potential for excellence. We opted for the sirloin steak, accompanied by pasta with marinara sauce and fries. The steak was cooked to perfection as requested — Medium rare. While the accompanying mushrooms & sauce were rich and flavorful, the blue cheese addition was overpowering and similarly disagreeable. The pasta, however, redeemed itself with simplicity and consistency, earning a solid 4/5. The fries were crispy, perfectly seasoned, and equally deserving of a 4/5 rating. I will definitely be back but for their seafood options.

Came with smoked blue fish it was the perfect meal. Fantastic clam chowder. Homemade bread. Everything was homemade or local and you could tell they take great pride in everything they make and serve, including an espresso martini made with so much love.

Today we ordered take out. The food was good . The service not so much. Our order came with no condiment sides; soy, duck , etc. We ordered Nime Chow that as a standard is served with a peanut sauce, chopped peanuts and a sweet Thai chili sauce . Those sides basically make the dish, those were also excluded. We called ahead to inform them of the situation and when we returned we received no peanut sauce, the gave us chopped peanuts to go in a Thai sauce and said that is peanut sauce, not true! When asked for hot mustard they said it was an up charge….When I asked them why no peanut sauce after we received none at home, I received an apology and a future credit for nime chow. The idea of takeout is simplicity not a return for items that should be included at first and then not to receive the proper items and asked to pay for items that are usually free. My chickens enjoyed the no sauce Nime chow.

First time and the place is great! This is their Chocolate Churro Martini - Godiva Chocolate Liqueur, Stoli Karamel Vodka, Rum Chata, Topped with a Chocolate Drizzle. We shared the Mediterranean Plate but we were so hungry & impressed we dove right in without a picture first. I have ended with their Dark Espresso martini which was actually made with Godiva Dark Chocolate liqueur and it was great! Huge martini glass full. I swear an 8 oz glass! Great place to try bar side if you can, FCFS. Otherwise quaint cozy and inviting place with tapas style options for a great time out.

We had a nice dinner outside. My salmon portion was smaller than other restaurants we frequent. Was given sweet potatoes instead of butternut squash. Sides came out late. The au gratin potatoes weren't very cheesy. A woman was begging for money on the street and went up to other tables but luckily didn't approach ours. My boyfriend loved his meal! And the food was really good - cooked perfectly and delicious. Happy we found this little gem and will be back!

I had the privilege of going there for the first time last night. Very friendly staff, and the chef came right out to greet us. The food was phenomenal, and they were happy to prepare it any way we like. It seems as though they gravitate towards small plates that can be easily shared - which I love. Who wants to choose just one flavor when you can try several? Be sure to check this place out!

The food here is terrific. So is the service -- and the chef loves to see people enjoy his creations. You'll often find him in the dining room asking folks their reactions (that was my experience pre-pandemic; I've been getting takeout over the past year and the food is still excellent and the process for takeout is easy-peasy). Really nice place and lovely, kind folks here. Top notch.

Pizza restaurant
Papa Joe's Wrap Shack is a laid-back spot that offers New York City-style thin-crust pizzas and wrap sandwiches, including vegetarian options. Customers praise the generous portions of their large pizzas and the quality of the crust and fresh toppings. The place also serves grinders, salads, and more at affordable prices. Despite potential delays due to high demand, patrons find the wait worthwhile for the hot and perfectly cooked pizzas.
If you are ever down in Bristol RI, you gotta stop at the Wrap Shack, from pizza to grinders, salads and more, this place here delivers a great tasting bite of food. Inexpensive but again great tasting. It makes you want to tip the hard working staff.🤗

I just ordered a large cheese pizza here and whoever made my order doesn’t know how to build a pizza apparently. They didn’t put the sauce on the pizza. So instead of making it correct they just drizzled some sauce on top and call it a day. I ordered this for my kids. And they wouldn’t eat it. Money wasted. This is the last time I’m ordering from here.

If you want to get nasty chewy expensive calamari then definitely go here! Horrible customer service. Don't give them constructive criticism unless you want Cory Vargas to insult you like he did to me. I tried to find out who the owner was and Cory said he owned the place. I don't think that's true but if he is the owner he knows nothing about serving quality food! Don't waste your time with this place!

Two wraps and two sodas for $38…..we will not be going here again. Wraps were both very “wet and drippy” and fell apart. Not much flavor and two special requests were not taken care of. They do not have turkey as an option which blew my mind. Food was bland and very underwhelming. Slow service and very blah inside did not make for a good experience overall. Plenty of other spots around for food at the same or lesser cost.

I remember about 20 years ago when this place had good quality food. Stay away from the calamari at this place...chewy as hell and disgusting! I brought it to Cory the cooks attention and he gave me an attitude about it and told me not to come back lol. Unprofessional and sucks at cooking!!

Nestled in a charming locale, Hope Diner is a delightful gem that you might just overlook if you're not paying attention. After an open house visit to Bristol, I stumbled upon this cozy spot and decided to indulge in breakfast. The omelets were tasty, and with a sprinkle of salt, the breakfast potatoes became quite enjoyable. But the star of the show was undoubtedly their chourico hash—so good that I couldn't resist ordering an extra side!
Stopped in here by chance and so glad I did. The waterfront views can’t be beat, the prices are good, and the staff made great recommendations about the menu. Lovely local vibe, very clean. Most importantly, the food was prepared using fresh local ingredients and the care in preparation came through in every bite. I look forward to being a customer again and might even drive out of my way just to return!

What a fun place! My wife had the Portuguese Sweet Bread French Toast and I had the Chourico Sausage Sandwich with sauce and onions, and both were delicious. This is the sort of place where you can really get the local flavor. I swear the staff knew the names and regular orders for everyone. The staff are a hoot, and there may or may not be a parrot in the back that talks back and sings songs. If you are going to the Audubon Nature Center or Colt State Park, you owe it to yourself to get breakfast or lunch at the Hope Diner.

I ordered the chili verde. My food is just some fired chopped pork with some green sauce made it right there. I like to order this dish because I enjoy the flavorful and soft meat that comes from slow cooking. But what this restaurant offered apparently does not honor their own tradition. The menu is ordinary and common. I won’t go again

Frankly, it's pretty much bog standard Tex-Mex. Pretty limited menu with your typical decor and ambience. That being said, the service was great and the margaritas, though a little pricey, are pretty solid. The chips and salsa are also tasty. So if you're more into drinks and apps, this is definitely worth checking out. For food, it's hard to say since in general Mexican food in Rhode Island is lousy at best.

Took my mom out to lunch after reading the reviews, we went before dinner service that starts at 4:30. Let me start by saying WE WILL NEVER RETURN! the food was absolutely disgusting and had been sitting there for hours, the waitress knew because she had told us if there is anything we see and it's dry to let her know and they'll get us something fresh! REALLY?! everyone raves about the prime rib, seafood etc.. that may be good I would not know, but I do know that the lunch food was absolutely terrible! Old, dried out, salty just all around bad! We told our waitress and she acknowledged that the food had been sitting out for too long and that she had informed her manager, and suggested they only do lunch service for X amount of hours because of this issue. Our bill came and I paid and left. And yes the manager knew of the disappointment and how horrible the food was, but never said anything to us. The waitress apologized repeatedly but it is not her fault!

Van's Spa is a delightful gem that captures the essence of a classic diner experience.

Known for his candid humor and genuine interactions with patrons, he creates an inviting atmosphere that feels like stepping back in time. The walls are adorned with stories from its rich history, adding to its quirky charm.
Sausage, egg and cheese breakfast sandwich was freshly cooked and delicious came with a decent amount of home fries for $5 and it was ready in 5min. I'll dine in the next time, and try a few more dishes on the menu. I'm curious to know how they are. There's a lot going on, on the walls but you can tell that it all holds a story and some history to go with the rest of the restaurant.

The pretzels, along with the churro , were burnt and rock hard. My other sandwhich I asked for toppings on the side and not toasted. They completely disregarded my request. And THEN, when I reached out to corporate that night...it took a week for them to respond and all they said was I'm sorry and thank you for my feedback.

Went to pay for the pizza they do not accept large bills had a $50 bill they wouldn't accept it had no other choice but to use a credit card which I did not want to use then they showed me a sign on the door that was less than half an inch large that says it don't you just love restaurants or legal terms that hide behind writing that you can't even see call Marcia legal document

My boyfriend and I went in for pizza and apps. It was very dingy, dark and appeared to be closed. There was no help except the owner, the pizza took two hours and it was burnt. Nothing we ordered was fresh. I would not recommend Sam's at all. DUMP! Not to mention pricey.
