I visited Medici Lounge for the first time today for the RI Tacos and Tequila Fest with a friend…read more Overall, it was a fun afternoon and I'm grateful we were able to go. The venue itself is spacious and handled a large crowd well. The multiple margarita stations were a great touch and added to the experience, though a few could have used a bit more ice as the day went on. There was a long line for tacos and at one point we had to wait for fresh batches, which slowed things down a bit. I also wish there were more options for those with food allergies or dietary restrictions. That said, we enjoyed connecting with a mix of new vendors and familiar faces, which made it feel like a great local event. The nachos from Casa Azul Taqueria were definitely a highlight. We also loved the photo booth, it was hysterically fun trying to switch props in three seconds. Another standout was making succulents with @sassysucculentsri, such a fun and unique addition to the event. Medici staff were friendly and kept things moving during a very busy event, which I appreciated. The music added to the energy, though it was a little loud at times. One small note, GPS brought me to the wrong entrance, but signage helped once I got close. It was a fun experience overall. A few tweaks would make it even better, but I'd absolutely check out another event here.

A few more seats or tables would have been nice. Tacos were very yummy, but the line was super long and they ran out when we finally made it to the front. The ones we finally got (steak---not sure if that was meant to be the only option) was delicious.

On a summer weekend, it gets very busy up there, but on a fall weeknight, we had the outdoor area all to ourselves. We just did drinks, so I can't comment on the food, but the atmosphere and view alone are worth the visit. Blu Violet has both an indoor and outdoor seating area, making it suitable for all seasons. The bar is located indoors and there are a variety of tables indoors. Last night we saw couples dining, as well as hotel guests working on computers. The outside patio is lovely, with tables & chairs, and also comfortable couches. The view looks out to the East, and is very lovely. For drinks, Blu Violet has a cocktail menu, with most of the drinks in the $17 range. They also have a few beers on tap, bottled/canned beers, and I tried the most delicious cider I've ever had: Pumpkin Jack, Made by McKenzie's in upstate NY. My husband had the Narragansett Musik Express IPA, which was on tap. Loved our visit to Blu Violet last night and hope to go back again soon!

We loved their drinks, appetizers and service, as well as the great views from the rooftop patio. My wife loved the Watermelon + Feta salad and we were so happy that it is gluten-free.

Indefinitely recommend this place.

Enter the walkway from Dyer St and on your right, cross the newly opened little bridge parallel to the river. You are now on the Urban Coastal Greenway to Point St. Park. Or, walk straight, cross the pedestrian bridge over the river, turn right and follow the walkway to a new open greenspace. Either way, these new segments of the East Coast Greenway bring green spaces, places to bike, walk, meet up, and be with nature by a running river. There are plans to bring even more food vendors to the park during warm months on the west side of the river by Dyer St. This is in addition to the food trucks that park on the east side by the pedestrian bridge already.

When the weather is nice, this park is a great place to visit with beautiful views of the river and cityscape.
