Upon entrance is a doorman who is so friendly and accommodating! He found us an open table and checked on us throughout the night. The place was packed and they only had maybe 5 or 6 employees so the service was a little slow but understandable. I think the longest wait was about 20 minutes when we were waiting to get our initial drink order taken, but everything after that was fairly quick. For drinks I got a thin mint martini because they were out of the chocolate reuge martini I wanted. It was so yummy and came with 3 thin mint cookies. My mom got a pistachio martini and the Jefferson Tea. Both were pretty good but I wouldn't order again. My dad got Dead Mans Redemption which is good if you like bourbon. It comes with a wood topper and they light it on fire, let smoke fill in the drink, and then take the wood off. The drink then has notes of smoked wood in it which is cool. For food we got the crispy spring rolls and pepperoni flatbread. Both were so good!!!! It was absolutely worth the wait!!! I could eat the whole flatbread myself it was that good and I can't wait to go back and get another one. The crowd is definitely much older, not a lot of younger people around. It's a good date night for married couples. Overall it was a nice place and I would come back.

They just text you when your seat is available. The place is very cool with a witch-like theme with snake decor and they have menu's that light up with a black light pen. Once you're in the experience is worth it. The bartenders are friendly and definitely have a passion for what they are doing. I ordered the BRUJO ROJO - Vago Ensemble Private Barrel, Ocho Plata, tomato water, pink peppercorn, lime acid, celery & cucumber bitters. It was drinkable, but I didn't love it. DRAGON GATE - Erguotou, Kota pandan, ginger, sesame, coconut, astragalus, wasabi, lime. My wife loved it, but I couldn't handle another sip...lol. Overall, very cool setting with unique drinks. You almost have to try it once or even twice.

Needle & Thread gave exactly what it needed to with the kind of music that makes the ladies want to get up from their seats and dance. Loved the entree, it felt warm and cozy on a breezy summer night after a long day of fun filled activities. The asparagus was a bit overcooked and thin for my liking, so I would recommend fiber maxing with a side of veggies. This is the perfect spot for date nights, solo diners, and GNOs.

Our server was so pleasant & very attentive. The sliders were seasoned well, the Alfredo was good, but could've used maybe some pepper, also could be personal preference. Loved the French 75 martini, very summer! This place is located in the bottom floor of the building, and I don't think that there is an elevator, at least I didn't see one. Parking is paid street parking, or there are parking garages. We will be back.

They've been open for about five years, so if you haven't ventured in yet, definitely put this place on your list! Lentz_explore

You can order at the bar or wait for a server to help you. There is self serve water at the bar, making it easy to hydrate between specialty cocktails. We've ordered everything on the menu except the lobster PB&J, and haven't been disappointed. We especially like the charcuterie board, meatballs, pizzas and desserts. The strawberry layered tres leches was really rich, sweet and indulgent tonight- so good. We also had the Andiamo and Bugsy Siegel. We're looking forward to trying more desserts. The comics are funny and friendly to speak with after the show. There are usually about 4 comics. They have a DJ for late night after the comics. The atmosphere is comfortable and friendly. The host, Jeremy is a genuine entertainer and always makes us feel welcome.

We ended up having a last-minute venue change to Ladder, and I am so happy that the prior venue fell through. I worked directly with the owner, who was awesome! He was able to work with what we wanted/needed to be covid friendly during an event, and he was always accessible. I had preselected appetizers for everyone, and I did drink tickets. We ended up taking The Jake lounge, which worked out perfect for us. We had our own bathrooms and had our own bartender and servers. Highly recommend it if you are throwing an event!

We are a family of foodies and all agreed that the Chicken Francaise was delectable! Penne pink vodka would rival any of your well known Italian restaurants! Everyone remarked on the fabulous food! I am sure that this is the best event venue in Rhode Island by far. Do not hesitate to book your next party at The Jake! You and your guests will be thrilled!
