    [[HIGHLIGHT]]They created a beautiful space out of a former diner.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They also get big bonus points for offering a Manhattan mocktail! The food was delicious but the service was spotty. A constant request to remove unfinished food was mildly annoying and when I did need a plate packed up to take home, was ignored for a spell. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It did get quite busy, so that mighy be the reason.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My leftovers were just as delicious the next day. The octopus salad was divine. I will go back again. I highly recommend making a reservation and I see they do have al fresco service during warmer weather months!

    Chicken Parmigiana, Ravioli and a special appetizer. This place is very good hidden gem in an old diner car. Very authentic Italian food.

    This hidden gem in an old diner provides authentic Italian food in a family run restaurant. The service is spot on. It's a small space so call ahead to get a reservation.

    We loved our experience here! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's a small, cute place with a lovely uncovered porch, perfect for a summer night out.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The food quality is excellent, and the menu sticks to traditional Italian cuisine. Service was great. Will be coming back.

    Ravioli with Vodka Sauce
    Lindsay C.

    Got the ravioli with vodka sauce for takeout. It was good, but not nearly enough food to justify the $30 I ended up paying after tip. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant itself is very cute, operating out of a trolley car with minimal seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I know good pasta can be expensive, but I was just hoping for a larger serving size with this particular dish. The sauce was flavorful and I was able to save some of it to use on my own pasta the next day, which was nice.

    Tiramisu with very tasty raspberry sauce on the side.

    This 'diner' has been renovated inside to create an Italian Restaurant. The 'counter' has been turned into a bar with very comfortable high top seats. No hook for pocketbooks though. The 'booths' have been replaced by tables for four with table clothes and cloth napkins. The original structure of the diner, along with other interior furnishing like the original refrigerator unit behind the counter, have been intentionally preserved. This building has been part of the neighborhood for a long time and New Englanders like to keep our history. They have only been open a few weeks now and décor is a work in progress. We chose to sit at the bar. At this time they offer canned beers. One Italian, Coors and Bud. They have a selection of wine and mixed drinks. I asked about local distillery options and was told they are working with local companies to create supplier agreements. For example, they are working to get local oysters. Our bartender has known the owner, who is from northern Italy, for years and worked with him on creating the restaurant. She is very friendly and easy to talk with. We very much enjoyed and appreciate the time she spent answering our questions and chatting. We started with adult beverages and an appetizer to share. The negroni was well made and presented. The glassware for both drinks is sturdy. I am happy they offer carpaccio, one of my favorite Italian appetizers. This one comes with hearts of palm, grilled peach, arugula and a good quality, aged cheese. The meat is paper thin and tender. Well presented, tasty and good quality. My dining companion ordered their Amatriciana. He makes his own and loves to try other's recipes to compare. He approves this flavorful choice with large pieces of guanciale. He was offered fresh grated parmesan to add to the dish. I went with the short rib ragu over rigatoni from the Primi section of the menu. I am told the rigatoni is made in house and the pasta has a nice firm texture. The ragu is mild and full of meat. My food limitations did not allow me to try one of the Secondi. We were able to try the tiramisu however and it is a classic version with espresso and chocolate. A very good Italian dessert. We had a very nice Amaro after dinner drink with our dessert. The food here is the star and why you should come. The menu is similar to what you would find in Italy, food quality is excellent and the recipes flavorful. This food is better than most I've had on Federal Hill. Food prices are comparable to other restaurants in the area. If you enjoy authentic Italian food, you should check out Café Milano.

    We went last night (3-2-2026) for Terry's birthday and EVERYTHING was absolutley beautiful and delicious..Insalata polipo and scungilli salad, Costata di Vitello alla Griglia (Grilled Veal Chop with Truffled (YUM) French Fries and Seasonal Vegetables) and Petto D'Anatra all Ancia con Amarene (Pan-seared Duck Breast with Orange and Black Cherries). This is definitely going to be the place fo celebrate special occasions. Our server was everything you could ever want for a dream dinner...very knowledgable about the prep for every item, professional, comfortable to talk with...you name it. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!

    Dessert!  Pistachio tiramisu (bottom) and a fabulous apple tart (top)

    What a transformation from the old but charming former Snoopys Diner to the contemporary yet intimate Cafe Milano! The interior is welcoming and snug with 6 tables for four customers each and a long bar replacing the former diner counter with plenty of stool seating. The food is outstanding (definitely high-end and no diner fare here) - simply executed and done very well. We started off with the foie gras plate and an artichoke/pistachio/avocado salad which were both elegant and decadent. Then we shared a pasta dish: the ravioli in vodka sauce. This was terrific, silky and plump and now I wish we'd doubled down on this one. I followed with a secondi of the veal Milano, a pounded-thin veal cutlet, lightly breaded and fried with an arugula salad. The salad was amazing - and it really had to be for me to even mention such a side. The veal was tender and delicious. My wife had a grilled salmon which was cooked perfectly and again - truly a sign of care and commitment! - the side dishes of grilled vegetables and mashed potatoes were simply outstanding. Desserts were equally good: we had a tiramisu which was subtle and not overly sweet; and a fabulous apple tart which was hot and fragrant with a wonderful crispy phyllo. Service was warm and welcoming. My hats off to the staff! Yes it's on the expensive side but the high quality and care justifies it. A very pleasant and satisfying visit.

    This is not my first time at Rhody Slice, although the first time for a review!…read more This place sits in a random shopping plaza off Post Rd in North Kingstown. The bright orange sign is your beacon to delicious pizza! Pull in, find a spot and head inside to a gorgeous cafe-esque pizza shop. A beautiful slice display showcasing 6 different pizzas, and plenty of local options for soda, beer and wine. They make NY style pizza here at Rhody Slice. The staff here are always friendly and efficient. The person helping you is usually the one making it, so it's nice to be able to speak to your pizza maker directly if you have specific needs! We were pretty simple today, half pepperoni and half meatball. I love their crust the most. It has great texture, and it's so tasty. You can really taste the care they put in the dough. They tend to go lighter on the sauce, so keep that in mind if you are a sauce-forward pizza lover. The pepperoni are all beef and the meatballs are clearly homemade and tender. The pizza eats easily, it's so light! Between the two of us, we crushed the whole pie. Another satisfying lunch at Rhody Slice! It's not hard to overlook this place among the many plazas on Post Rd. Blink and you drive past it. So take it from me, keep your eyes peeled for the orange sign because you won't want to miss your turn.

    I recently ordered takeout from Rhody Slice in North Kingstown. I tried calling in my order but…read morecouldn't get through, which has happened the past two weeks, so I ended up using the suggested Toast app. I ordered a gluten free pizza. The crust was thin, which I know is typical for gluten free, but mine was a bit burnt around the edges and a little light on sauce and cheese. The flavor itself was ok and it actually reheated well the next day, which I appreciated. My boyfriend ordered the 18" hot honey pizza and said it was solid. Not the best he's ever had, not the worst, just a good, straightforward pizza. It was on the pricier side, especially with the added card and app fees. Overall it was fine, just not a standout first impression. I'm willing to give it another try and hope for a better experience next time.

We were suspicious that it was tossed with pink sauce but it was freshly made and the calamari rings were still crispy under the flavorful peppery sauce. The Veal O'Reilly was succulent and crispy. We were split on guessing whether the mushrooms were fresh or marinated (canned) but we both enjoyed it. The lasagna was tall and tasty. The Tagliatelle was al dente and nicely sauced with bolonese. The rollotini apps were fresh and flavorful! The lemoncello cake was very light and a great ending to a heavy meal. There is nothing bad to say about this place!

We sat at a high top in the bar and our waitress, who I called the Ice Queen, waited on us. Efficient but completely not friendly. We started with the Brussel Sprouts which were not great (my husband's are better), too much vinegar or something. For entrees, I had the chicken parm -- the chicken was super thick (not pounded out) and had very little flavor. The spaghetti was not fresh made -- felt like it was made yesterday and heated up -- the sauce wouldn't stick on it for some reason, weird. My husband had Eggplant parm and it was the worst he'd ever had - you couldn't even find the eggplant - it was just breading. Was sad, I'd picked the restaurant. Maybe it was an off night...?
