We got a few apps including the Brussel sprouts (amazing and big portion ) and the southwest egg rolls (also very good, smaller portion). We got the pizza of the day which was a chicken vodka ... wasn't that great, to be honest... but we asked for more sauce and they gave us some and it helped a bit. The smash burger was classic and I got mine lettuce wrapped instead of a bun, which was nice! Music was loud, but that is expected.

We stopped into Sports & Leisure for RI Food Fights Best Burger and it absolutely lived up to the…read morehype. What a fun spot. It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon and after a coffee run nearby, we decided we needed a snack. We walked in not even knowing what games were on and the place was packed, always a good sign. We grabbed a couple seats at the corner of the bar and were greeted right away. All three women behind the bar were personable, friendly and on top of everything, which made the experience even better. We started with spicy coconut margaritas which were so good, then split a cheeseburger and sweet potato fries. I had mine as a lettuce wrap and it was flavorful, juicy and delicious. The fries were cooked and seasoned perfectly. Great energy, friendly service and a really solid burger. I will definitely be back soon to try more of the menu.

They have a few beers on tap and in bottles plus a full bar. Food menus are available and specials on are a big blackboard on the wall near the bar. After chatting with the cook for a bit seems he can make your spicy food as spicy as you like it. Just let them know. Pro tip. Besides bar seating a few high tops are scattered around the small space. I believe there is one bathroom for all, but I did not use it, so not sure. Entrance is up a couple of steps on the front or back of the building. A small covered outdoor seating area is at the back to enjoy the beverages in fine weather. Parking is across the side street in a lot shared with another business (that building looks uninhabited, but I'm told it's an event hall) or street side. Nice staff. Lovely locals. Super casual.

Dave's has a homey feel with decent prices. I hate to be critical since it always seems packed and…read moreseems to be well-loved, but they just keep missing the mark. A cocktail, food, and specials menu are provided, but they have a ton on tap and yet don't tell you what it is. You have to request a menu for non cocktail drinks which is crazy. The servers never seem to know what is on tap when you ask them, either. Service was great last time I visited when we had the lovely Favor helping us. More recently when I had someone else, service was slow and not amazing, I wasn't offered a water refill until I was packing up to leave. She did say she was newer, but the cadence of her visits was strange. I give Dave's extra points for serving their mozzarella Sticks with a homemade marinara (it leans heavy on a green pepper flavor so sadly it's not my favorite, but you can tell some love went into it and it didn't just come out of a jar). I asked for a small container to go for the marinara sauce to go with my leftover mozzarella Sticks since I didn't touch too many of them, but no container was given. I didn't notice until I got home and then was so sad, since eating leftover mozz sticks plain is just not fun...giving you sauce for the road should be a given when I had so much left! Obvious things like this just seem to get missed by the staff; they are always slammed on nights I go and are running around frantically. It seems they just need to add more servers, especially on trivia night - nearly every table was full! Most alarmingly, on my last visit, my friend was given spoiled sour cream with her meal. I ordered a Blue Moon with an orange slice, and somehow both the beer and orange tasted expired and off. I had my friend taste test to make sure it wasn't just in my head, and she confirmed it tasted not right. I sent it back and got a Cherry Cider, which was delicious albeit a little too sweet (asked my server for the brand since I like some ciders and hate others, but she never got back to me...it'd be nice to know). When my bill came, I was charged for the Blue Moon I had 5 sips of. I questioned it and the server gave me a little attitude to be honest. I couldn't believe I had to fight to get an item that was expired taken off my tab. She almost made me feel in the wrong and embarrassed for asking, when that should be standard customer service practice. Ultimately it was removed, but I was made to feel like I was being high maintenance....not cool. One of the two women's bathrooms always seems to be closed due to an issue. At least there's plenty of parking in the large lot since you can use the spaces for the building that looks like a liquor store next door (I'm told it's the same owner and this is used as storage space and is not an operating liquor store? I'm unsure) It seems they just need better training for servers and more of them on busy nights so they aren't stretched so thin. This place has potential but the thought of eating expired sour cream makes my skin absolutely crawl....please keep a closer eye on ingredients! I will say that my friends have always been pleased with their meals for the most part, especially when it comes to their decadent desserts. The seafood options also seem to be a hit, but I have not tried them myself.

I have been to Tavern in the Square in Garden City twice this summer and I've had really good…read moreexperiences both times. My only sadness about Tavern in the square is that they don't have any type of fried cheese. Sometimes if I'm just grabbing late night cocktails I just want some mozzy sticks to nibble on. However, they do have some really nice apps, in the past, I've had the pretzel, the whipped feta dip and burrata and all have been great. For an entree, I always get the same thing - the Bayou Chicken Pasta. I'm not usually a huge fan of cream sauce and pasta, but I love something with a good kick. This pasta has chicken, corn, tomatoes, slices of some type of green pepper that I think gives it a little bit of heat as well as Cajun spices and Parmesan cheese on top. I usually ask for extra sauce and add Tabasco sauce and it has some great flavor. I've been really impressed by the cocktails here lately. I ventured in February and was made a delicious gin and guava cocktail. I don't know if they have guava anymore, but it was so good and I wish I'd gotten the ingredients. On the menu for Summer is this lovely lavender haze cocktail, but I do not like the citrus cold foam because it's a bit too bitter so I always have that taken off and add a little bit of Club soda instead. I also really like the salted caramel martini, and in the past, if I wanted more lavender or didn't think the salted caramel martini tasted enough like caramel, they have always brought over simple syrup or even a little more of the flavored alcohol to give the drink the intended flavor. I really appreciate that type of service and I've never been nickel and dimmed for that either. The service has always been phenomenal, and I overall like the vibe. It's a really big restaurant and so I've never waited very long to be seated. The bathrooms have always been clean, which is a huge one for me. I definitely will keep this in the rotation, especially when they have a lavender gin.

We found ourselves in Garden City and stopped by for an informal meal. It was our first time here…read more The place was noisy but pleasant. We ordered drinks; my wife had a Prosecco split and I had a tall Shiner Bock a Smooth Texan beer on the recommendation of our server. It was new to me and will buy a case soon. For food my partner had the Ahi Tuna bowl- a tasty dish. She took home some of the fixings. Not having had a burger for a while I had the blackened bacon & blue with a side of crispy fries. It was large and good and I finished it. We couldn't have a dessert as we were satiated. Our server Craig was efficient and pleasant, and patient. The check came to a reasonable $74 for the two of us. It was just the right meal for us that day.

Picasso's has a big gravel parking lot that's usually busy but never so full I can't find a spot…read more Service is friendly and food comes out pretty fast. The food is delicious (although some pizzas that contain garlic really have a lot of garlic!) - I love their eggplant parm sub an insane amount, the bread is just so fresh and crunchy and fluffy. I tried the cinnamon dough bites today and let's just say they were worth burning my mouth for! I wish they came with an icing type sauce or something though. I've only been on trivia nights, which is fun, but very loud. I wish the trivia company they use projected the questions on one of the approximately 15 screens this place has. I tend to forget the options immediately after they're read to me. Drinks are very economically priced, which is great for a casual friend hang or when you're tired of the overpriced cocktails that seem to be absolutely everywhere right now. You can get a good deal on a pitcher of beer or sangria. Bummed there is only 1 Women's and 1 men's bathroom for the whole restaurant, you often have to wait if there's a decent crowd in the place. It's a small space and the mirror is facing you when you're on the toilet, so that's....an experience. The biggest drawback is that it shares a wall with a cigar / smoke lounge, so it can get smoky in here. Every time the door opens, since people tend to smoke on the patio, a new waft of it comes in. I wish there was a way to improve the ventilation system and/or somehow get rid of this issue, since otherwise this is a cozy and fun spot with great food and lots of events and entertainment.

We ended up at a table on the grass with a gorgeous view of the boats and marina--it was the perfect setting for a beautiful day. We kept it light with chowder and clam cakes, and it hit the spot exactly. Everything tasted great, and our waiter stayed attentive and helpful throughout, despite how packed the place was.

When that happens, it's time to pay attention. If you love old school RI Greek pizza, Dimitri's Pizzeria on Warwick Ave is exactly the kind of place you'll love.

As this place was selected by my co-founder, I needed to go by myself, have some pizza and scope out the place. Plus get to meet Dimitri himself in case he had any questions. The space is lovely, a good amount of tables and a small bar. I ordered a pepperoni and black olive and found a seat at the end of the bar. After not too long of a wait, my pizza arrived. If you were to look up Greek style pizza in the dictionary, you would see a picture of this pizza. As I was chowin down, I realized it's like the most perfect textbook version of the style. The crust is crispy and airy, the cheese a little chewy, stretch and salty. The sauce hits just right and the toppings bring it all together. Its perfection makes sense given Dimitri has been making pizza for almost as long as I've been alive, and I'll be 41 this year. Even after he retired himself from Cowesett Pizza, passing the torch to Britt, his former employee, he could only last a year before he was called back into making pizzas. And I'm certainly glad he did. This pizza hit the spot and then some. I had to hold myself back from eating the whole thing. Mostly because I didn't want to put myself into a food coma They offer so much more than pizza, but you should definitely get the pizza when you come here.
