    Black & blue Burger w/curly fries
    James M.

    Stop #8 on RI Food Fights 11th Annual Big Burger Blowout!!! I've passed by here a number of times they have weekday lunch specials that I've been wanting to come in and try and I actually did a presentation here for a community event, but didn't have a chance to come in and eat! First visit! Burger was great. I will definitely be back for lunch! So they're offering a standard cheeseburger and you can upgrade to other burgers I decided on a black & blue burger without the blackened season and a side of curly fries. The girls behind the bar are adorable and very helpful! Burger is juicy and flavorful! I'll be back for lunch!

    Part of the fun of birding is chasing rarities, birds that for one reason or another, make their way to areas where they don't belong. Some wander for reasons unknown to science. Others develop a flaw in their navigation system and migrate the wrong way. And so, when a Common Cuckoo, a European species visited this area instead of heading to Africa, it attracted hundreds of people. We made the drive from Jersey and because birds and food are my thing, I spotted this place on my way to where the bird was being seen. We spent an hour watching the Cuckoo and made our way back to this inviting looking spot. The one server was very pleasant but she had a lot to do. So we spent more time there then we contemplated. Great beer list. Pulled pork sandwich for me. A burger and some wings for my friend. The sandwich was perfectly ordinary, nothing that was memorable. My friend ordered his burger, incinerated. Not my style but he seemed to enjoy it. The wings looked great. I was bummed not to have a beer but it was a three hour plus drive home. Glad we stopped in and patronized a local joint. I seriously doubt I will be out this way again but if I am, I'll be pleased to pay another visit.

    Just stopped here with friends on the way down from Boston to Mohegan Sun on the way to New York. Great all the way place in historic building that feels like it's 150 years old amd historical. The food was excellent: Giant mac & cheese burger, nice chicken Cesar salads, enormous fish sandwich. Tom the owner super nice guy and they've got a converted bocce court so a great outdoor space. And with really friendly service. Five stars all the way.

    I'd go back. While it's not the best food or cocktails I've ever had, this is a comfortable space with a huge outdoor seating area and a laid back vibe. And yes, they even have a bocce court. While sipping on a beer, I enjoyed a plate of buffalo calamari, then switched to peruse the tavern's martini list. Mixed drinks don't seem to be their strongest suit, and my martini with peach vodka and coconut rum was terrible (but shame on me for curiously choosing it). Service was good - our waitress seemed a little miserable but was extremely quick with food and drink orders. Overall, a pleasantly average spot. I think they achieve what they've set out for - a cozy neighborhood bar.

    Chicken cesar salad

    Will never come back here again, plain and simple. I stopped in for the $8 lunch special (which is either 2 hot dogs and fries, a burger with fries or a chicken Cesar salad. And a drink.) I chose the salad but when I went back to my truck and opened the container I saw this crap. This cannot fill up a child never mind a grown man. I understand it's a lunch special so I didn't expect much but I surely expected more than this. Salads are cheap to begin with so I can't be cost. I had half a mind to go back in and toss the salad back at whoever made it but even if they offered to give me a proper portion I didn't want to get my food spat in. Maybe someone was having a bad day or maybe this person was training, either way the place smells old like an assisted living home and cat piss. Will never be going back to this shit hole.

    They really should put a cover on the radiator then

    Walked in and walked out. Drunk guys stumbling around the parking lot. People smoking weed in the back. And servers no where to be found.

We ordered the…read moreAmericano and the Bistro burgers and they were both large, well cooked, and the house made chips were delicious. It was a beautiful spring evening and we really enjoyed being out on the deck. There was live music inside, and we could hear it well from the deck while also still being able to converse. Service was great - There was a mixup with my drink and the server took care of it immediately. Our server checked in on us frequently, and was polite and friendly. I'd definitely go back again for one of the nightly specials and a seat on the deck!

My friend ordered the green apple & pecan said with Cajun chicken she really enjoyed the said it was really good, but the chicken came out plain so they had to remake it as Cajun chicken and it cane out completely burnt so she didn't eat it. She also ordered the cauliflower for an appetizer they were just okay they could've used more seasoning and sauce Service - the service was fast even with it being a full house, I didn't like that my opinion wasn't taken into consideration because I did complain about the chicken and was ignored Ambiance- large space, very room, stage for bands on certain nights there was a singer there the Thursday we went, they also offer weekly specials different things on certain nights. The outdoor patio and bar is nice for summer! I won't be back but I got to experience it

They have specials almost every day & on Thursday, it is buy a pizza & get one 50% off, $5 red or white sangria. So that's what we did! Hubby was in the mood for an appetizer & he selected the calamari alla mama with sauteed garlic, tomatoes, hot peppers over a bed of arugula & a side of marinara. I didn't love the calamari rings so I had several & let him go to town on the dish. He very much enjoyed all the garlic & hot peppers, especially with it dousing the arugula underneath. He literally ate every bite! Hubby wanted a meat pizza so he selected the classic cheese with the pepperoni add-on. I opted for the prosciutto & arugula. Both were delicious! The crust was super thin & crispy, the toppings went all the way to the edge. If I was going to nitpick, it would only be to say that we love our pepperoni with a little char & some cupping action. Hubby opted for a Peroni & I went with the red sangria (no ice). Both were delightful! We had a rotating cast of servers & all of them were lovely. The bar was pretty empty when we got there around 5:15pm but when we left, every seat was taken. Very nice evening out!

I've seen on social media that people complained about the new location having mainly street parking - we both found parking easily on the street - quit yer b*tchin' people lol. Besides I believe they have a lot behind the restaurant that we didn't have to use but it's there if needed. We were the only ones there when we first walked in but more patrons came in as the night went on. Made our way to the bar and orders were flowing - one warning if you're sitting at the bar, it is an open kitchen so there will be alot of aromas flowing through and may get on your clothes but really it'll just remind you of how good the food was. Also, the barstools are not the most comfy - metal stools with no backing so after 2.5 hours, we were feeling a bit achy. We ordered way more than we should've but everything just looked so good! We got the croquettes (our absolute fave), the cauliflower, the pizza du jour (I think it had spinach, pepperoni, ricotta and garlic) and for entrees we got the fish tacos and the Orecchiette. Not one complaint - everything was divine. Croquettes were melty, smoky little nuggets of heaven and our favorites bites of the night. The pizza had a great balance of flavors and the crust was thin and crispy. We were so full but had a few bites of the fish tacos and pasta - the fish was cooked to perfection and the aioli it came with topped it perfectly. Pasta was different - had a scallion cream sauce that was a nice change up from your typical Alfredo. Don't sleep on this place - the street is busy being on a main road but so well worth the visit, I didn't catch our bartender's name but he and a few other servers were super personable and friendly - gave us just enough time in between meals and personal space to not hover. Absolutely will return!
