    My food was not cooked how I asked then the manager said that we could have free dessert for everyone at the table, even though we were not going to get dessert and the manager put it on our tab and said that we were lying and he lied straight to our face,

    Outstanding return to this Greenville, location for a group of four. Our entrees were amazing from sandwiches (Reuben, Cheesesteak & Bacon Burger) to fish and chips. Price are fair, and food arrives piping hot. Service was impeccable, and drinks never went dry. Couple shortfalls on the amount of steak on the steak sandwich as well on the fish, too. We will be back!

    Honestly how can this place stay in business. Side salad was TINY the fries were cold the fish was dry and the Cole slaw had a funny taste like glue or alcohol, just weird taste. The bartender was attentive and pleasant and did replace the cold fries. The lighting and crowd noise was comfortable. Come on Chelo's DO BETTER!

    I was in this part of the State and got a little hungry... I remembered that I had some Chelo's rewards point in my account so I went to this Chelo's for lunch. I sat at the bar since I was by myself. Up until 3pm, you can get some really good deals for lunch. I opted for the burger with curly fries. It was only $7.99. I asked for the burger medium and the curly fries well done....both came perfectly made. The beef patty was juice and well seasoned...the fries were very crispy and crunchy... the way I like them. The bun was nicely toasted and buttered...very fresh.... I had a really good filling lunch and after using my rewards points, my total out of pocket expense was $0.10...I gave the bartender $2 as a 20+% tip and I was a happy customer.

    Chelo's Turkey Club is good, but nothing crazy. Just your basic, nostalgic club sandwich. Pretty good size and the turkey wasn't dry. $13.50 is a little high in my opinion. Their curly fries were very good though. Nice seasoning, warm and crispy.

    Banana Cream pie.  Part of the special. Large enough to be an entire meal.

    Excellent waitress service. Side dishes not hot - waitress offered to replace. I decided to take them for later. Main dish was ok. Tasty. Chicken pot pie loaded with chicken. Very large portions. Minor note - portions of the menu are written in a red font on a black background, which is very hard to read.

They have what seems to be my favorite lettuce, from Little Leaf Farm! The cracked wheat salad was a unique base that was tasty, and the toum was out of this world (they were very generous with it, too). The tomatoes are the grape variety, so still decent in the winter. Olives were plentiful and are Kalamatas. I think the feta is pre-crumbled, which isn't my favorite coming from a restaurant, but was still good enough. Service was pleasant and our food was ready pretty fast. The negative is that the falafel, which was the only protein for each of us, was not very good. It was not hot or crispy, there were a couple of flavors in it we did not like, and it was very mushy inside. We would definitely come back and get something else on our bowls. Even though we are falafel fanatics, and I make my own, the rest of the bowls are good enough to warrant future visits.

I ordered a Iced Dirty Chai Latte, it's a very flavorless chai (can't taste), thick and syrupy, the coffee didn't come through and tons of sugar granules were filling the bottom of my cup after receiving. I didn't enjoy my drinking experience. As someone who has tried fresh award winning roasted beans, good pour over and solid espresso shots I knows about quality and this coffee is far from it. I tried my moms coffee order to see if it was better and it was extremely milky and the coffee didn't come through again. I ordered their taquito wrap and it was lacking in flavor as well despite having lots of ingredients. Their sauce which is a smoky barbecue kind of chipotle (the best thing I tried) with a nice spice overpowered the whole dish and other than the sauce it lacked flavor. This place had a nice ambience and was very busy but I'm not sure why. I won't be returning.

But there was one spot nearby I hadn't been to since November and it was high time I went back. That place is Zesty bites. They're located on that last stretch of Smith St before you cross over in North Providence. I always manage to find street parking in the front but there's more around the corner as well. Imad was in there cranking out a HUGE catering order! There were covered pans everywhere, ready and waiting for the client to come and pick up. But that didn't stop Imad from taking a moment to shake my hand and ask how I was doing lately. I didn't want to take up much of his time as his Friday night was just kicking off but he is genuinely a warm and friendly person, you can't help but smile when he smiles. I took home a Pesty Chicken, house pesto with turkey bacon, onions and chicken, plus a hefty slice of his gorgeous baklava. After my 5 minute drive home I got to it immediately. The pesto is herbaceous, salty from the Parmesan. The turkey bacon is not what you find Butterball making but rather, this was of a much higher quality and was an actual piece of sliced meat instead of a formed amalgamation of ground turkey. All of those ingredients sang while being supported by the incredible crust. I don't quite know how to describe it. It's light, fluffy, but crispy. Crunching into the crust scratched a part of my brain I didn't know needed it until I bit into this little slice of heaven! The baklava looked as good as it tasted. Sweet, spiced, and it had this deep flavor I can't quite put my finger on but it's probably top 3 best I've ever had. If you haven't visited Imad and his shop up over on Smith Hill, then you are missing out on a unique and delicious experience. 10/10, great pizza. Great food all around, no matter what you get you'll love it!

    Last year during the RI FOOD FIGHTS Lord of the Pies event, we stumbled into Zesty Bites and found…read moresomething special that stuck with all of us. Imad runs this small spot in Providence where incredible Lebanese food and pizza coexist. His pizza has that perfect char on the crust, brilliantly simple sauce, and genuine hospitality that feels completely natural, not performed. So when this year's competition rolled around, I came back. Twenty-four places into this month's pizza marathon, we needed to know if Zesty Bites was a one-time thing or if Imad's really doing what I thought he was doing. Turns out, he is. Of course he is. The crust still delivers. Crunchy exterior, chewy interior. Imad's dough artistry hasn't changed. His sauce is fresh and flavorful, built from simple, super fresh ingredients that deliver big taste. No tricks. High quality cheese and pepperoni blend together for a pie that just delivers a little bit of magic to your mouth. Same five tables. Same warm welcome. Imad's still treating customers like they are family who just walked in, not like he's checking boxes. After twenty-four stops this month, you start noticing which places coast and which ones stay consistent. Zesty Bites is consistent. No drop-off. No shortcuts. Just the same great pizza Imad was making a year ago. That's a lot harder than it sounds.
