    Passion fruit donut with Toasted Coconut
    Naia L.

    Loved it and would highly recommend it! I've been following them on instagram for a long time but hadn't gone. I loved their story, their cultural take on dishes so i knew i had to go; but i also knew reservations might be hard to get; its a small place with limited seating. Finally planned a birthday brunch for a good friend, on a Sunday, for 4 people; luckily there was still one table available at the time we wanted. There was plenty of street parking; it was 9am on Sunday so the street wasn't busy. It can get busy since there are lots of other businesses/restaurants on Hope st. We were the first ones there, sat right away. Our waitress was so nice, patient and informative. The restaurant is small but super cute; loved all the decorations, the references to Puerto Rico, the art, the wine-case/wall. The food was as good as i had imagined! We shared some empanadas to share :chicken and beef. We all got different things: 2 of us got the shrimp and grits, one got the cubano and the other got the brioche egg sandwich. We also shared desert at the end: guava and dulce de leche quesitos; but the star of the shoe was the passion fruit donut! The staff was sweet, they brought it out with a candle since we were celebrating a birthday. They also took pictures of us; they were super nice. We all agreed we will definitely go back!

    A yummy brunch! The croqueta madame had very good croquettes inside topped with a sunny egg. I like a more traditional croque madam personally, so I'd definitely try something different on the menu if I return. It was also very difficult to cut as it was served in a shallow bowl. The star of the show (not pictured) was the pineapple orange juice. It was absolutely delicious! The space is cute inside, and we had great service our whole visit!

    I went to Little Sister for brunch and had their traditional breakfast platter. It was super flavorful and I loved the seasonal jams. The platter came with eggs, bravas potatoes, chorizo, and jam, and everything was tasty and felt like an upgrade to your usual breakfast. I would definitely stop in for a horchata latte again. The portion was decent but the final price was just high for breakfast. The vibe inside was nice and made for a pretty setting on a rainy day. We also tried the cinnamon roll which did not disappoint. I loved seeing all the pastries lined up.

    On Sunday nights, Chef Milena gathers guests to try wines served alongside a Puerto Rican-inspired food and sides. Reservations can be made through Resy. My friend and I attended a Sunday Wine Tasting at Little Sister on Sunday, February 16, 2025 at 6:00 PM. The theme was champagnes and cava (Spanish sparkling wines) made by méthode champenoise. Darcy Coleman, Chef Milena's husband, greeted us and told us to sit anywhere that is setup for 2 people. Unfortunately, there was a water leak at the table we were sitting and the seat was getting wet so we had to move to the counter top seats. Chef Milena welcomed us and we got to sample five tasting pours of thoughtfully selected wines throughout the event. With our first tasting pour, Chef Milena taught us how to taste the wine and in between pours, we learnt about the grapes used, the region where the wine is made, and the winemaking method of each of the wines. We also had the opportunity to serve ourselves vegetarian and meat paella, tostones, and salad. The food was delicious and scrumptious. At the end, all wines we tasted were available for purchase to take home. The wine tasting event lasted two hours and it was really fun. It was casual and just felt like a group of friends hanging out, learning, eating, and drinking wine.

    Tripleta on brioche

    Hungry after a trip to the farmer's market we decided hit up Little Sister for brunch . They only had room for 3 at the bar. I find most bar seats uncomfortable (I'm short and am usually left with my legs dangling or sliding off the seat) but these were super comfortable with a bar for your legs to rest and a hook for my purse. The man behind the bar was super friendly with lots of recommendations. We started off sharing a plate of corn ribs basted in guava bbq sauce - a special. Honestly we were all wishing the sold the sauce - it was that good! We ordered the three entrees, shakshuka, tripleta on brioche and a croquetta Madame. Nothing left on anyone's plates by the end of the meal, it was that good. Definitely would come back after another market trip, this time to try some of their pastries which looked amazing!

    The food was so delicious and well worth the wait. You have to make a reservation, because this restaurant is so eapopular and busy. Only open till 2 on Thursday through Sunday. I'm so darn happy we discovered it. The waitresses are absolutely amazing. Andraea seated us and Natalie was so helpful. We couldn't figure out what to order and a customer suggested the 2 dishes we ordered. Thank you so much for the suggestions. This is a place we're going to come back to when in Rhode Island

    Chicken chicharrón and waffle
    Willie R.

    We found Little Sister from--of course--looking for brunch options on Yelp after a wedding near Providence. I tried making a reservation online, but we were too close to the booking time, so we showed up anyway and they were able to seat us after a wait, during which time we went down the street to a local shop. It's very cute inside, with an imtimate dining space. They sell local jams and things in there, which was nice, and I bought some of the apricot jam (which is in my fridge right now, and I highly recommend). I enjoyed the chicken chicharrón and waffle, which, contrary to the typical meaning of chicharrón, is not pork. The horchata ice cream was a nice way to finish up the meal. Great little place I'd be happy to come back to!

    Sparkling wine and Cava?! Sign me up! It was a fun experience being able to learn about the region of where the wine came from and how it was made. I loved how It was encouraged to give a good smell before swishing your wine around so you can embrace the taste. The Cava was okay I wish it was a bit more seasoned but they did have homemade hot sauce which added a nice flavor and really the made the meal come together. I fell in love with the pineapple hot sauce so much I'm actually thinking of going back and buying a bottle. This was such a fun experience! If you're looking to do something different I would definitely recommend going. I honestly will do it again!

    Food was poor, kitchen staff was rude. Might be fine for others but I would advise against eating here.

    We attended a Maison Ferrand cognac seminar & tasting the other night at Sapphire & it was such a…read morefun & unique experience for us. The staff at Sapphire (Melissa, Marc, & Shiv), as well as the guest bartender (Vannaluck), went above & beyond to make the experience interactive & memorable. We were greeted immediately with a French 75 made with cognac - Did you know that the original French 75 called for cognac, as well as many other classic cocktails? No? Neither did I. The welcome aperitif was a great lil' treat to kick the night off with. We were given a mini charcuterie selection to keep us busy until the main event, which began about 20 minutes after we arrived. Vannaluck talked us through the history & characteristics of cognac. We were given 3 small pours of different cognacs to taste as well as a serendipitous, bonus mini pour at the end. Throughout the night, the kitchen sent out a variety of tapas that UTILIZED COGNAC. Cognac glaze, reduction, brine, etc. Fascinating! I went in knowing next to nothing about cognac & left with a decent understanding of the spirit. I've always wanted to do something like this, & Sapphire made it extremely accessible. It was also amazingly affordable. I'm really looking forward to more events like this one. Sign me up, please.

    My husband and I decided to come to Sapphire for a drink...I had really enjoyed the cocktails and…read morethe food during the recent Yelp Elite even, so I told my hubby to check out this place with me. I loved the Jacobean cocktail, so we both got this smooth scotch cocktail...Melissa made the drink with an expertise that few have and while she was making them, we engaged in conversation with Marc, the beverage manager. Both were very engaging and very friendly, making the visit very relaxed and enjoyable....we also got some steakhouse sliders that were outstanding...the meat was just slightly medium, keeping all the moistness and flavor.... Overall a great place for a drink and/or light bites...... The ambiance is inviting and cozy and the patio outside is great for those nice warm Rhode Island evenings....
