Laid back vibes like just sitting dockside enjoying some great food, watching the boats go by. It's not just BYOB but also dog friendly! Very spacious seating as well both indoors and outdoors. The waitstaff were warm, friendly and accommodating I really enjoyed my fish tacos with swordfish very fresh and great sauce. A few things to keep in mind - (1) only one bathroom (although it wasn't super crowded when I came so wasn't an issue); (2) there are no signs indicating BYOB & no served alcohol, so a few ppl left because of this; (3) My aunt said they used to serve a GREAT Breakfast and this is something they no longer do

RATING: 2.33/5 This restaurant is wildly overpriced and…read moreseems to attract most of its customers based on the atmosphere rather than the quality of the food. I ordered the poke bowl, and quite frankly, it was absolutely disgusting. The fish didn't taste fresh, the flavors were completely off, and I couldn't finish it. A friend ordered the shrimp plate and was served only five shrimp, all of which were severely overcooked, alongside cold fries. Considering the price, the food was nothing short of insulting. To make matters worse, the bathroom doesn't even lock. It's awkwardly located, and instead of fixing a basic privacy issue, the restaurant apparently relies on employees to warn other customers not to open the door while it's occupied. That's unacceptable. The only positive thing I can say is that the service was fine. Overall, this place charges premium prices for poor food and overlooks even the most basic details. I would not recommend it.

We asked to sit outside and were stunned by the epic views of the docks that they have. It truly was a breathtaking sight. My only gripe was that it wasn't as shaded (either naturally or by awnings) as I thought it would be which made for a warm experience. However, the staff were great about accommodating any requests to move with some of the available tables they did have. Also, though no fault of their own I kept getting some septic smells in the breeze. It was faint and not all the time but definitely not something you want while having lunch- hopefully whichever business owner or home owner having that issue can get that cleared up. Our waitress was very friendly, attentive but not overbearing, and made sure we were well taken care of. I ordered the fish and chips. Our food came out quickly and everything looked good! Their mango coleslaw is unique but tasty. The fish was nice and flaky with a crispy batter. I found it to be a little greasy but nothing too worrying. Overall, a great meal to have by the water. I think Wickford on the Water is a great spot and one that anyone should try when they take a trip down to North Kingstown!

Two liked the Raw Oysters and Little Neck Clams served with three sauces: vinegar based, cocktail, and hot sauce. Three of us ordered locally caught baked Flounder. Very large piece of fresh harvested fish were succulent. Whole filleted fish? One ordered the Scallops. The large scallops are cooked perfectly and flavorful. A few days later, I ordered the Scallops at Champlins! Delicious My grandson ordered the grilled swordfish which I considered ordering. He wanted me to try a piece since it was perfectly cooked. It was not dry at all. My daughter had the broiled sea scallops, her favorite. We keep coming here because they serve great quality seafood that is prepared skillfully. Ambiance: Eating seafood seaside can not be beat. Champlain's is located in the scenic fishing village of Galilee in Narragansett, RI. You can watch the commercial fishing boats and the Block Island Ferry enter the port from the wrap a round windows on the enclosed deck. Prices are low to moderate.

When you go, you are in a line to order from a window, are given a buzzer, and pick up your tray when it's ready. While waiting for our food, we found a seat with a great view. Picnic table- like tables made of Trek, so no splinters, large tables for big parties and smaller tables for 2 or 4 people. There is also a bar serving your favorite adult beverages. There is an outdoor bar and seating as well. Very casual.... Wear your bathing suit if you choose! The food.... I had what they called a Lobster salad roll, with French fries, but it was not what I expected. The chunks of lobster and very little, if any, mayo. My roll was a little dry, but I was so excited and hungry to eat the lobster salad roll, it didn't matter!! My husband had the fried scallop dinner, which he loved. He had about 15 scallops with his French fries. The red chowder and Portuguese stuffies were also delicious. Most of the seafood is priced daily to market prices, but, man, we didn't even care since we felt it was all worth it! Three days later, and I can still taste that Lobster salad roll! We will definitely be back, but during the week. It can get very busy, and we've seen very long lines here. It's important to note they are open year round!

My dining partners had the fish sandwich (which I tried and will definitely make a trip back to order one for myself) and the other had a hot dog. That too was excellent! With the Fish and Chips came chowder and I chose my favorite - Rhode Island. That too did not disappoint. The flavor and portion were perfect. The staff is primarily young and energetic. Some may not like the easy going atmosphere but I enjoyed it. Their enthusiasm added to the upbeat vibe. I never saw one of them not working. The only thing keeping this from a 5 star is the fact the ordering process - specifically the walk up area - is a bit chaotic as other reviews have written. We went early enough so there was no line and only 1 ahead of us. However by the time we came left there was congestion roaming around the porch area and we had to weave through to get out and off the porch. If there is a way to keep those that have ordered from hovering around - that would be a big help. I'm looking forward to go back again soon!

There are all sorts of other things you can order that look great too. The atmosphere is great, with a wraparound porch you can eat at.

We're back in Providence to celebrate my wife's birthday and decided to start the weekend fun with…read morea dinner at Mare Rooftop. Mare is described as a Mediterranean-inspired seafood restaurant. It's about a 7 minute drive from downtown Providence with upscale vibes. After riding the elevator up to the restaurant, we checked in with the hostess and were escorted to our table. There, our server Teresa greeted us and told us about the specials and some items she recommended. My wife ordered the Tequila Doli cocktail and Amaretto Apple Cider. I kept it basic with a draft beer. We also ordered deviled eggs because why not? Our drinks and deviled eggs were served promptly, and after a few pics, we dove right in. The deviled eggs tasted great and I ended up ordering another round of them. The cocktails did not disappoint. According to the menu, the Tequila Doli contains Lunazul Blanco Tequila, & Pineapple fermented topped with a Pineapple Slice. The ingredients paired well and the drink left my wife wide-eyed with amazement after the first sip. I also had a sip and thought it tasted great. I also loved it's simple but beautiful presentation with the sliced pineapple sitting atop of the foam. The Apple Cider Amaretto was dangerously delicious due to how sweet and smooth it was. I see myself ordering a few when we return. For the entrees, we went with Teresa's recommendations on the scallops and short ribs. The scallops were served on pumpkin risotto, butternut squash, and topped with stracciatella cheese and pesto. They were seared to perfection and had a soft, buttery texture inside. The pumpkin risotto and butternut squash all worked well and we found the food delightful. The short ribs were the item that stole my heart. They were presented with a nice bark and served over delicious mashed potatoes with a side of fresh green beans. The ribs were cooked perfectly as they were fork-tender, and savory. The green beans were fresh and had a nice "snap" to them. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal at Mare Rooftop. Unfortunately the weather wasn't cooperative or ideal for outdoor dining and drinks. But as discussed with our server, we're already planning our return in August!

I never write reviews, even bad ones, but tonight's experience left me pretty stunned. I called at…read morearound 6pm and asked for the first available reservation for 4 people. The response was we only take reservations for parties of 6 or more. Fair enough. I said I'd like to drive up and pit my name in for the next available table for 4. We arrived around 6:30 and I put in my name. I was told it would be 30-45 minutes. No problem. I ordered drinks at the bar and sat outside enjoying the night. At 7:20 I went back and side and saw two 4 tops open and asked the waitress if either of those were for us. Her response "We can't sit 4 people at those tables only." Found that odd seeing as the other 4 tops had 4 people sitting there. She said she was waiting for the table in the back to finish and we could have that one. I said ok and ordered more drinks and went back outside. At around 8:15 a couple came strolling by us and asked what the wait was like. I said we had been waiting for an hour and a half, but they could go check if the bar had seats. 15 minutes after they went in I went in and saw them seated at one of the 4 tops that was open earlier. I asked the waitress why she would sit 2 people that just walked in at a table that fits 4 people that have been waiting for close to 2 hours. Her response "They had reservations." First off that's a total lie as I just spoke to them before they went in. Second, you said you don't take reservations for parties of less than 6 people!! To make matters worse, 2 other staff that my brother in law and I spoke to about the situation all gave differing stories about reservations. Again, you told me on the phone no reservations for parties under 6 people. And to top it off, no apologies, no offer to fix it, no offer of apps or dessert or anything. Not looking for freebies, but literally no remorse. All they did was hide in the back and try to ignore us until the bartender helped us. We have been here many times, always good food, service is good, but the host station is always chaotic. This time took the cake. Will not be back for a while.
