    Lemon Crme Brle
    Ashley J.

    This was our fourth time at Siena. Whenever we have an event in the Providence area, we are happy to make the hour+ trip from CT knowing we can stop here. Delicious, quality Italian food. Drinks and wine are always on point. Ambiance is perfect for date night or for a group dinner. Last night we were in a little time crunch before a show and our waiter Chuck was super personable and accommodating. We were so impressed by him and everything he did to get our drinks, meal and dessert all out in less than an hour - while still keeping the experience intimate.

    Had an awesome experience at Sienna. We went in without a reservations on a Sunday night and were able to find a seat without a problem. The food and service were both wonderful. The crab and lemon pasta was definitely the highlight of the night for me. Would 100% order that again. Lots of chunks of crab with a ton of flavor. The short rib was also spot on and super satisfying. The amaretto coffee was a great way to end the night along with the creme brulee.

    Writing this review while sitting down at dinner, that's how good this place is. Really nice atmosphere, amazing service, food tastes good. The deserts..... Don't skip the desert. Eat half your food to make room for their desert. You'll thank me later. Bravo team here. Look forward to returning!

    Came here with reservations for 3 on Friday night for an early Mothers Day. Had to wait 30 minutes past reservation time with no room to stand, and the hostess seemed annoyed. Food and waitstaff were exceptional.

    Birthday cocktails!

    Never a bad time. Went last night to celebrate a friend's birthday and it was a wonderful time. We were seated in a booth in the center of the rotunda at the front of the restaurant. A perfect spot for a party of 6. Interior is warm and well designed. We started our evening with wine and cocktails all of which were delicious. The black fig martini was fabulous! Arancini and calamari were next, and both were good. A great sauce on both, and the breading on the calamari was light, and not at all oily. Meals included pastas, and fish mostly and everyone enjoyed their meals. The carbonara was very tasty and made without cream! Bonus points! Two in the party ordered the swordfish and enjoyed that as well. We had three desserts all of which were tasty but the crème brûlée with the lemon curd and raspberry coulis was the standout for me. Overall a wonderful night out; would definitely be back!

    Dessert - dough boys, eggnog cheesecake, banana cheesecake, and chocolate cake.

    I'm pretty sure this place takes the win in Guinness Book of World Records for the largest sangria…read moreever!!! I was shocked when it was brought to the table. Not only was it absolutely delicious, but it also doubled as an arm workout for the day. LOL Our waiter went above and beyond tending to every detail. He provided exceptional service. The chefs outdid themselves with their salmon dish, and my husband loved his steak. Usually, we find seating at the bar, but this time we sat in the dining area which felt more refined. If you haven't been here yet, you have to check it out! It's an oldie but goodie... a RI staple.

    Ambiance and service are good. However, I would argue that the food and the value isn't good…read more Most of the food is lacking in portion size for cost, as well as general flavor. I found that the tuna steak appetizer was slightly overcooked (not sure how) and had a fishy taste. The portion sizes of the food and what is charged for them doesn't really add up. If you add chicken to the pasta with marinara, you're looking at ~$28 for what is the equivalent of maybe 4 fork fulls of angle hair and a chicken nuggets worth of chicken. Its a leg up from Greggs or Chelos, but I would argue that Greggs and Chelos are probably a better value for a somewhat equivalent meal. The service staff do a great job and are attentive, which is the saving grace. Probably won't come back unless we get a gift card.

The ambiance was cozy and inviting, though our table was in the middle of the aisle which felt a bit cramped. Unfortunately, the service itself was inconsistent. We had to ask for bread three times. When we ordered two brownies and one coffee, we were brought one brownie and two coffees. At the end of the meal, we asked for both my meal and my son's meal to be wrapped to go. My son's plate was accidentally thrown away because other plates were stacked on top of it. When I asked about it, the server explained what happened but did not offer to remake it, remove it from the bill, or apologize, which was disappointing. That said, it was a busy Friday during Restaurant Week, so I would consider coming back and hope the service is smoother next time. While writing this review, I actually received a text from the restaurant letting me know we left our son's plate behind, which was thoughtful and appreciated. If Yelp allowed half stars, I would give 3.5.

Thank goodness for takeout boxes. My favorite plate was the QUESO DE CABRA CON MIEL (goat cheese with honey) served with crusty bread. We paired it with the CHORIZO LEÓN HERRADURA. It was just perfect together. Dessert was worth mentioning. The warm double chocolate brownie with ice cream is a definite yes please. So rich, so gooey, so worth the calories. Bocado is a tapas restaurant, but I found these small plates quite generous. Roll me home I'm done!

A friend and I came in and put our names on the waitlist, waited for about 45 minutes at a bar down the street, and then had some of the most fulfilling tapas ever! We got a Prosciutto & Salpicao board, the Queijo de Cabra, and Frijol Dip. I also got a nice portuguese red wine that paired well with some of the cheese we received. We sat in a very sweet and cozy nook and enjoyed every minute! I will be back when it's warm out and the front patio is open!

    My friend and I came here on Father's Day expecting it to be packed, which it was, but there were…read morestill a few tables available, both inside and outside. At their front patio, they had the World Cup game playing, but the back patio felt cozier so we opted for that. The inside though was a strong second since the lighting is very low, creating a cool and calm environment. Walking through the restaurant to get to our table made me realize that each table is unique, no two are decorated the same or have the same furniture. It was a hot day but the overhead mesh cover blocked out a lot of the sun. Our waitress made us feel very welcome from the start and told us about their drink and food specials. My friend ordered Guatemalan beer as well as a Spanish beer. For food, we ordered the plantain fries, octopus, calamari, and shrimp salad, and grilled lamp chops. The seafood salad came out first. According to the menu, it was going to be paired with cornbread. It looked like sourdough bread but had a far denser consistency. I was expecting the salad to have lots of shrimp to act as a filler but surprisingly, it was about 60% octopus, 25% calamari, 10% shrimp, and 5% onions. The seafood was very flavorful, tasted fresh, and cooked perfectly. The portion size was great for two. Next came the plantain fries, which I was least impressed with as it was essentially fried plantain chunks. I think it would have been better if they were cut into smaller pieces that can be easily dipped and consumed in one bite. The plantain was gently ripe, so just a little sweet and the dipping sauce was like a less sour sour cream. Lastly, the lamp chops came out and the presentation was wonderful. They were a bit skinnier and less tender than that I was expecting, but flavor wise they were good. We enjoyed the food, ambiance, and service here.

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.

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....
