Vibey little bar with great cocktails and delicious food- I love that they have the tiny pony Miller High Life bottles. This location used to be PVDonuts, but I could barely tell since they did such a great job on the interior. Get the chips and stay for the atmosphere! read more

The lackluster greeting I received from the hostess/waitress could have been remedied had I gotten a warmer greeting from the bartender who came from behind the bar shortly after but that failed me as well. Given that I had been there a handful of times and had brief but pleasant conversations with him, the grossly unenthusiastic, passive-aggresive approach today was disappointing. Since my go-to drink has been removed from the menu since having last had it in late APRIL/early MAY, there is now little reason to return. I truly wish hospitality workers would remind themselves prior to every shift that their personality pays their bills. read more

A weird experience.... We walked in and waited by the front door and the "Please wait to be seated" sign for a few minutes. No one helped us, so we walked to the bar and ordered. The bartender told us the drinks were covered by the host, which is when we realized it was a private party in the entire space. We told them we weren't part of the party and paid for drinks, but apparently we never should've been let in. No one stopped us at the front door. No sign. No post on their website saying they were closed for a private event. No post on their Instagram. Feels like whatever system they were trying to implement to enforce a private party totally broke down. The employees were very nice about it at the very least. We got two drinks: the Isuzu and the grape cobbler. The grape cobbler was okay - sweet but not much else going on. The Isuzu was SO bitter and I didn't like it. The description on the menu didn't match the drink at all. I wanted to like it here, and I've heard great things. However, it was such a bad experience and we didn't like the drinks, so I'm not sure we will be back. read more

So I took my sister here because it was restaurant week and I saw where this is a James Beard nominee. We were greeted at the door by a very pleasant woman,who seated us at a cozy table. The special was a dirty martini and a dirty martini burger. A dirty martini consists of a humongous hamburger patty , with outrageously delicious cheese and an olive. My sister opted out of the martini and had the burger sans olive. I tried the caviar hot dog,which is lobster, scallops and shrimp rolled into the shape of a hot dog and topped with caviar. The texture was not pleasing to my palate, though I ate half of it. I also opted for a lemon drop martini, which was ok. The owner came over and we discovered his birthday was that day. As a bd treat to me, he sent over what looked like gigantic onion rings. Actually it was dehydrated onions, loaded with mozzarella cheese. The outside was crispy and the inside was gooey. This is totally happy food. Both my sister and I are so looking forward to returning. read more

This place was SO cool! We got there around midnight so kitchen was closed / can't speak on food but the SERVICE? Our server was a riot and so nice! Main reason we went was to try these 'deviled Ramos' egg Jell-O shots.. I mean come on?! How unique! No no, no real egg- gin, condensed milk, passion fruit, orange blossom. And I'll be honest.. they were pretty dang good! Would definitely get again. All of their other drinks seemed so fun as well, the crew will definitely be back! read more

Delicious martinis and great vibes. Cute little spot that even has Keno! Really good food and even better staff... I love the decor and old school feels- will definitely be back! I liked the burger and cheesesteak (mushroom based), but their specialty chips stole the show- addicting seasoning! read more

This bar is so fun and creative -- I've been in twice now and have had so much fun both times. A friend and I stopped in for a quick drink and appetizer and were greeted by the loveliest (and truly most delicious) welcome shot I've ever had. We both ordered the same drink, the Chamo-Pants, mine without alcohol and hers with, and enjoyed the uniqueness of everything on the menu! We also got chewy fries to share and they were unlike anything I've ever had -- but very good! We will be back, for sure! read more

Super friendly service. Tried a few cocktails and all were solid. One guest was drinking N/A and out of the two options one was not available leaving one which was unfortunate. I get it though as I used to bartend and we ripped on people who ordered N/A but these days I think it's best to have two options at least. The "High Horse" was interesting and I would get that again. I dug the horseradish vibe. I will definitely be back to see what's new and try additional cocktails. read more

I'd heard a lot about this new cocktail spot and all I can say is - BELIEVE THE HYPE! The ambiance is very retro, in a good way. It feels like an homage to dive bars of the 80s and 90s. There's wood paneling, vintage signs and pictures and cozy nooks, all in a dark room, dimly lit with a neon glow. The cocktails are some of the most inventive and delicious I've had. There's no overly sweet, basic crap here! My friend had the Clarisa which was made with clarified goat milk. It has an intriguing deep, sort of savory flavor. My drink, the High Horse was refreshing, tangy and complex. All the flavors were perfectly balanced. We shared a Mai Tai Baba for dessert and I could have happily eaten two of them. A soft cream-filled bun was infused with the rich tropical flavors of rum, coconut and citrus. Truly delightful! Our server was friendly, attentive and super helpful with explaining the menu and recommendations. I definitely want to go back and try more drinks and food. read more

A cool, retro-style bar serving creative cocktails made with unique ingredients and offering an intriguing food menu. I stopped in after dinner to grab some drinks during their Tuesday half-off special and tried the Mango Sticky Punch, the Sapphire, and the Hemenway Daiquiri. The Mango Punch was a clarified cocktail with interesting flavors. The Sapphire had a bit too much ice, but it was still very good. The daiquiri was just as amazing. Overall, a great experience with excellent service. I'd definitely come back to try chef Nikhil's food. read more

The seafood dog is to die for. We also had the egg shots! I tried a meatless sandwich and couldn't tell that it wasn't meat! We came their opening week and I'm looking forward to going back. Service was good and the place was packed. We had luckily made a reservation so we were seated quickly. read more

Club Frills felt like a cool retro bar with some interesting drinks! I got a drink that had pandan and ube, flavors that I haven't seen in cocktails in Providence. I had to try it, and I was surprisingly pleased by the flavor! Most pandan cocktails tend to just taste more like coconut, but I felt like I could actually taste the pandan here. My friend also got a yuzu drink which was refreshing. We wanted something sweet, so we got the yawgoo mountain dessert (the only dessert item they have). It was shaved ice (somewhat similar to bingsoo) with strawberries in many different ways! There were real strawberries, strawberry jelly, and what tasted like strawberry candy/gummies). It was pretty good and all the strawberry items were a nice surprise. I would go again to try some of their other drinks! read more

The drinks were awesome! We were planning on going for dinner but recognized that they had a limited food menu. The food was great but the drinks are the star of the show! I had the Ube drink and it was amazing. Inside is pretty cool. They had a claw machine and a skull disco ball. The service was super fast. The gentleman who sat us down also took our drink order. read more

A little window into what is going to be the hottest spot in Providence this summer. Neighborhood bar crossed with an edgy cocktail haunt, cozy booths and frothy drinks, cool sounds pulse all around. It's the place to be on a hot summer night, certainly was this evening. A+ the vibe is killer PS. Bottles and bottles of grower champagne behind the bar means I'll be coming back to give that list some serious attention, we all have our own motivations. read more

Stopped by to check out this new spot with a friend on a Friday evening and while the vibe was great, the drinks were mostly ice and mediocre at best. I got the pere ube while my friend got the melona which were not only priced slightly higher than other bars in the area but also tasted two-dimensional and similar (sweet, heavy on the anise, somewhat creamy). It lacked the depth and dimension I seek in a drink, which was disappointing as I wanted to love it more based on the description's flavor profiles. What was lacking in the drinks was made up for with the thoughtfulness of the design and setup-- we loved what they did with the space with a main space with disco lights near the bar to a smaller sitting/dining room off to the side and allowing for more intimate conversation. Would consider coming back for the vibe should an opportunity present itself! read more

The drinks might seem a bit crazy but they are beautifully crafted cocktails with exceptional balance. Seafood hotdog is a winner but skip the caviar upgrade, there's no need for it read more

I was introduced by someone I've come to respect in the food community so I will wax poetic. RI is a culinary destination for me, it's sacred ground. Those who walk the path are storied. The owners and staff are these kind of people. Absolutely intelligent bar, well stocked. Cocktail list, profound. The snacks, culinary ridiculousness. The owner was there working on a new syrup for a future state cocktail, and he was standing on business that his bartender approved. That's science, that's poetry, that's Club Frills. I had the Antelope which was a clarified cocktail that was a dupe of a fresh ambrosia at a picnic. The margarita with the sea foam was exceptional. But, I'm gonna shock you to your core, it was the Jell-O shot for me. The deviled Ramos which is a gin, condensed milk, passion fruit and orange blossom in the shape of a deviled egg. The flavor was so complex and such a journey for a shot! It's very clear to me that this crew is all business behind the bar and in the kitchen. I left in awe, with full belly and a LOT of bragging rights. Ives is where it's at and Club Frills is not messing around and for that I'll be back EVERY time I'm in town and you should too! read more

My husband and I hosted our post-wedding celebration after-party at Club Frills and we had THE BEST time! Chris, the owner, was amazing to work with and helped us organize the whole thing. The atmosphere was so cool, the drinks were wicked good, and the vibe was so fun. Will definitely be returning to Club Frills with friends. Great new addition to the east side! read more
