I got the chicken plate and gyro plate, which came with 3 sauces. The guy at the counter put the plates together right in front of the glass counter, so i could see everything going in. He asked me with each item if I wanted it -- lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, pepperoncini, olives, etc. I asked about the parsley greens and he mentioned they have gluten in them, so he clearly knew his ingredients and was steering me well. But it also caught me off guard -- most restaurants have no idea about gluten and I'm used to having to check everything myself, so there was a mismatch between his obvious knowledge and how rushed I felt trying to keep up and make decisions. Kind of annoyed me, even though I appreciated that he knew what he was talking about. Otherwise people were nice. We took food to go so didn't experience the ambiance but it seemed nice inside.

The first time I came, it was a rainy weekday and this time it was a sunny weekend, so I was expecting an even larger crowd; and my prediction was correct. The line was just out the door but because of their awesome staff, the line was moving very quickly. While we waited in line, we could watch them making pastries through the glass, a couple feet in front of us. I admired that level of transparency. When we were third in line, the kindest lady asked us whether we'd be eating in or taking out and she took down our name to help us find a table when it came time. She did the same for the rest of the people in line. She also gave us some recommendations, including the cinnamon bun - apparently they're so good kids cry when they sell out. I didn't intend to order anything with my drink, but I couldn't get the cinnamon bun out of my head so I ordered it along with my iced spiced chai latte. The hen (I think it's their logo) on the aprons of the employees are super cute. We did secure a table. The tables are close together to maximize the number of people who can sit down but I didn't mind. I love their art all around, mostly of birds which I am obsessed with. I love that they have a lot of natural lighting coming through their tall windows. I also like the navy blue and white theme they have going on. The chai latte was perfect. It was the right color (a dark tan), meaning the ratio of tea and milk was good and I could taste a lot of the spices. The cinnamon bun blew my expectations away. The second my teeth made. contact with the icing, it was a magical feeling. I couldn't quite put my finger on what it tasted like, but the closest I got was dulce de leche. It is truly unlike any other cinnamon bun I have ever had. The dough is soft and there is a good amount of cinnamon. It's also $4 which is not bad. I had a bite of their canelé, which apparently requires a lot of work to make. It was very moist, with a great caramelized finish. I am super excited to try their new weekend dinner menu, but also more of their all day menu items.

I've eaten my way through quite a few things here over the years, and while there are plenty of good choices, I keep coming back to the Smokey and the Bandit smash burger. At this point, I probably know what I'm ordering before I even sit down. There's just something about that combination that keeps winning. The food here is consistently good. Everything I've had has been fresh, hot, and full of flavor, and the kitchen seems to have that part figured out without making a big production of it. The menu has enough variety that you can come in with different appetites and still find something you want, but it doesn't feel like one of those places with a menu the size of a small novel where you need twenty minutes just to decide what you're looking at. The beer selection is another reason I enjoy Chomp. There's enough variety to make choosing a beer part of the experience rather than simply grabbing whatever happens to be on tap. Prices are also pretty reasonable for the quality and portion sizes, which is increasingly something I notice because restaurant prices have a funny way of creeping upward when you're not paying attention. The location is another part of the appeal. Chomp sits in a great little part of Providence where you can easily make an evening out of being in the neighborhood. There are plenty of other restaurants, shops, and places to wander around nearby, so it doesn't feel like you're making a special trip just to eat and then immediately getting back in the car. Tonight, though, I have to give a special shout-out to Bella, who was our server. She was outstanding. Friendly, personable, attentive without hovering, and genuinely helpful. She suggested adding bacon to my Smokey and the Bandit, which I probably wouldn't have thought to do on my own. I'm very glad she mentioned it because it was an excellent call. Sometimes the best recommendations are the simple ones, and she nailed it. One piece of advice if you're planning on coming here: make a reservation if you can. Chomp can fill up quickly, and given how good the food is, that really shouldn't come as much of a surprise. It's the kind of restaurant where people come back because they already know they're going to have a good meal, and I'm certainly part of that group. Five stars from me. Great food, good beer, reasonable prices, a fantastic Providence location, and genuinely good service. I've tried enough of the menu over the years to know that Chomp has plenty of options, but apparently I'm still incapable of walking through the door without ordering that Smokey and the Bandit. Add Bella's bacon recommendation to the list of reasons I'm going to keep coming back.

The worst item by far was the Caesar Salad. Honestly it looked like someone sliced up lettuce like you would for a sub sandwich, or used a 1990s Salad Shooter, and threw it in a styrofoam dish. It didn't even resemble a salad I'd avoid this place.

Last evening was an incredibly disappointing experience, to say the least. Some of the "highlights" are listed below: 1- Our waiter got one order wrong; while we understand mistakes happen, he did not apologize nor ask how to make the situation better. There was no concern for our dining experience. He simply told us he "pressed the wrong button," because of how we ordred(?). Rather than try to correct the situation, he made us feel like we were at fault for the error. 2- The Tandoori Chicken did not come with a cilantro rice pilaf; the plate had plain jasmine rice with an herb resembling dill, not cilantro. It was not particularly flavorful, either. 3- I couldn't find a hint of almond in the "Almond Crusted Swordfish;" the fish was grilled, bordered on dry, and had a dark sauce on top. 4- My 26-year-old daughter said that she could have made a better ragu, and left half of the portion on her plate, disappointed at her birthday dinner choice. 5-Lastly, there was a long wait between dessert and coffee, which was not properly brewed. When it was served, I could see the bottom of the cup, and given the timing I was done with my cup before anyone got their dessert. While the vegan white bean soup was good, and the desserts were wonderful, I'm sorry to give such bad news; however, it was indeed one of *the* poorest dining experiences we have ever had. read more

Dined at the renowned Mills Tavern for our fifth wedding anniversary - though if you ask me, we're still basking in that "just married" glow! Mike, our server, was nothing short of spectacular. If you're lucky enough to visit, make it a point to ask for him. For the thirst-quenchers, my lovely wife sipped elegantly on a red from Brancaia, Toscana, Italy, while I kept it classic with a neat Macallan 12 - as handsome as the gentleman drinking it, if I do say so myself. Now, let's talk appetizers! We dove into a full order of Point Judith, RI Calamari, gracefully paired with julienne bell peppers and a delightful sweet and sour mango sauce. And for the pièce de résistance: the 32oz Imported Australian Wagyu Tomahawk Ribeye. Cooked to medium rare perfection, its companionship with Mill's Steak Sauce was truly a match made in culinary heaven. On the side, we indulged in the Creamed Corn (Chef's Choice, mind you) and the Roasted Red Bliss Potato with Caramelized Onion. Both as delicious as they sound! All in all, our evening at Mills Tavern was a feast for both the heart and the palate. Looking forward to many more celebrations here! read more

Seemed like a nice place. We had a reservation for a large group. Everything was great apps, drinks, atmosphere. I was lucky enough to get the last swordfish they had left. Was really looking forward to it until they dropped it on the floor in front of me. When I was told it would just be a few more min till my plate was done I asked is that because it was just dropped on the floor? I was told that was not mine. 1/2 our table saw the server drop it and the staff knew we saw it too. So they still tried to serve it to me anyway after washing it off and cooking to to a ridiculous temp. The manager immediate came over and said it would be taken off our tab, but made up an excuse about me having to wait for my meal instead of just telling the truth. Mistakes happen, not a big deal just be honest. I would have gladly ordered something else. But once I was lied to,dinner was over for me. Just disappointing since the check was almost $700 for the table. Will not be back read more

We decided to go there for my birthday. We had gone in the past and wanted to give it another try. Sat at the bar which usually equates to immediate attention. We asked for menus, bartender gave us one menu then never returned, not even to ask if we wanted a drink. What seemed like forever he finally came back to get our order and then again 20 minutes later to clarify our order. It seemed like he had forgotten to put in our order because we had to wait another 20- 25 minutes, 50 minutes in total from when we first sat down By the way, restaurant was one-third full, bar was empty. My husband's main dish was unappetizing and mine was not what I asked for. When visiting a restaurant of this quality and price range the level of service and quality of food should be much higher. read more

Good, but not great. I agree with a previous post about the hostess, not pleasant and almost seemed annoyed to do their job. I have been to Mills on several occasions but will not be returning because the rude service upon entering it turns you off from the start. I recently called to book a party of 10 and it was like I was crazy for asking especially on a Saturday or Friday night. The manager never returned my call and I am happy.

The service here is truly exceptional, genuine five-star, old-school hospitality that is so hard to find anymore. Tommy was our server and was absolutely wonderful. Attentive, personable, professional, and made the entire evening feel like an experience rather than just dinner. Salvatore, the owner, has really created something special here. We started with the shrimp cocktail and WOW. I have tried shrimp cocktail at so many places and this has officially become my second favorite ever. The shrimp were HUGE, fresh, and absolutely delicious. I also loved that they bring you a jar of extra horseradish so you can make the cocktail sauce exactly as strong as you like it, along with hot sauce if you want some extra heat. Such a simple detail, but it makes a difference. Amazing appetizer and absolutely worth ordering. Then came the Steak Diane, prepared tableside by Nick, our flambé chef who trained at Johnson & Wales. Watching him prepare it was an experience in itself, but the steak was on another level. I am not exaggerating when I say it was sincerely the BEST steak I have ever had. No joke. The filet medallions were unbelievably tender and beautifully glazed with so much flavor. The roasted potatoes came out piping hot and perfectly crispy on the outside, but soft, buttery, and almost creamy inside. Everything was phenomenal. The restaurant itself is also incredibly clean, elegant, and respectful. There is something special about Capriccio. It has that classic, old-school dining experience that you just don't find everywhere anymore. Please don't change it. Some things don't need to be modernized or reinvented.

We went in December and the ambiance was really cozy and is decorated beautifully for Christmas. The reason for marking them down to four stars is that they now charge a fee when you pay with a credit card. I've never heard of this at a restaurant and was quite surprised when the amount I was charged was higher than the bill.

Overall an enjoyable night out.

THE PORTIONS!! I love how large the portions are here-- we were all satisfied and three of us had a…read moremeal for the next day. The place is massive and the only downside of that is parking-- it's hard to find a spot! We did a couple laps until we got one. Even at 6:30 on a Saturday, we were sat within 5 minutes and had an enjoyable meal. We were there for probably about an hour and a half, so I'd say it's a place to go for a slower meal as opposed to a quick bite. (While waiting there was also a very nice bartender who got me a glass of water so I could take a medication I needed to-- I really appreciated that!) We'll be back!

My wife, I've never been and I wanted to take my uncles out to a nice dinner. They don't set you until your entire part is there, which I like. We do have to wait a little bit, but they are very organized and went quickly. Mind you, we went on a Wednesday night and it was packed! I always recommend using the valet here as the parking lot can be kind of a nightmare. It was just as I remembered. I know things have been updated, but the ambience is exactly the same, even though all male wait staff. It was very nostalgic. Our waiter, food runner, and busser were fantastic. Our waiter greeted us and brought us our bread and some oil. I ordered a spicy tequila Cosmo and was apparently all the Talk because no one had ever ordered that there before. This seemed pretty impressive considering how long they've been open! My drink was fantastic. I love a place that can make a drink that they've never made before and make it a 10 out of 10. I ordered the Chicken Milanese as that's my favorite Italian dish. The lemon vinaigrette was one of the best that I've ever had. The chicken cutlets were also cooked perfectly! I was really happy that this place is still remain the same, with the same great service, same great quality and just a little bit more expensive than when I remember. Absolutely worth it.

For her meal, she had the Grilled Faroe Island Salmon, which was accompanied by blistered cherry tomatoes, capers, and roasted garlic, served atop red quinoa. It was a beautiful presentation, and G liked it a LOT. I started with a Side Caesar Salad which came in a small black bowl. Not only attractive, but also utilitarian... easy to pick at. For my meal, I ordered the Gemelli (a short, twisted pasta that looks like two strands of bucatini wound together but is actually a single strand folded and twisted). It was served with house-made fish sausage, rapini, some calabrian chilies, pangrattato (bread crumbs), and aglio e olio. The FISH SAUSAGE (who ever heard of such a thing!?!?) was the primary reason I ordered the gemelli. I just HAD to try it. And it was even better than I'd hoped: meaty and slightly spicy. Definitely a meal I will order again.

The service was friendly, professional and FAST despite it being a busy Saturday night. Loved the intimate but casual vibe in the lounge area by the bar. Excellent cocktails and great wine list. I could have ordered the whole menu and will definitely be back to do just that!

We sat at the bar and were very happy with our seats. They have a decent selection of wines and an extensive martini list. I got the tenderloin tip special that came with a mushroom demi glaze, asparagus and mashed potatoes. The portion size was large and the tips came out cooked medium. I ordered them medium rare so next time I will order them medium rare +. The grilled feta salad was fantastic. It was made with 2 kinds of whole olives with the pits in them, 2 large pieces of feta, and the tomatoes, red onion, cucumbers and lettuce were very fresh and ripe. I really liked the salad dressing (vinaigrette type). The oversized stuffy was ok, but I wouldn't get it again. Maybe I got a dud out of the batch? The stuffing was good, but it was nothing more than celery and onion. Unfortunately, there were no clams or seafood in the stuffy. For $8, I wish I went to Dave's Market for 2 stuffies.

The waitstaff is top-notch! I like that every race and ethnicity is represented in their waitstaff!!!!! Everyone was friendly, welcoming, polite and professional. We started with their delicious crispy yet soft bread and yummy dip. Then, we had an eggplant appetizer with delicious chunks of tomato. My dinner companion enjoyed the Bolognese pasta dish, and I loved every morsel of the short rib tagliatelle! For dessert we enjoyed the salted caramel gelato and the bomba spumoni. Everything we tasted was perfect! I have not enjoyed dining at the other two Fresco restaurants, in East Greenwich or, especially the lousy one in West Warwick (too noisy, cramped and lousy, unfriendly service). But, I am so glad I gave Fresco, in Cranston, a try! I will berating, with more friends!

Parking is available in large parking lots. When we went it was during lunch time and was not too busy so we were sat down right away. We ordered lobster mac and cheese and Caesar salad to start. Caesar salad was nice and light. Lobster mac and cheese was delicious. We ordered bucatini and frutti de mare for our entree. Bucatini was tasty and thick pasta was interesting. Frutti de mare was flavorful. Lots of seafood and great flavor coming from it. Service was excellent and servers were very attentive. Overall the place was good.

For the most part, I loved everything! The staff was really nice, the food came quickly, and the drinks were good. The scallop entrée with risotto was really good. I do wish there were more vegetables than carrots and peas, but not a huge deal. The Arancini was really good, but it needed more sauce. There was a little green sauce at the bottom of the plate, but I wish there was more . Unfortunately, I did not love the calamari. It felt over fried and was quite crunchy so I would not order that again. However, I would definitely go back and I would try a ton of new items.
