    Frittata [gf]
    Maryann K.

    Great little place with indoor and outdoor seating. Service was super friendly and the place filled up quickly for brunch. The menu had a variety of options to meet the needs of my group of friends with various eating preferences. I eat gluten free and they had good options for that. I had the frittata which was tasty and filling. My only feedback is that the potatoes got a little soggy in the sauce. Flavors were so great I wasn't bothered much by it. This is a must visit place in Providence!

    Calamari
    Erie E.

    Went here for a quick lunch with some friends. I loved the calamari and the Caesar salad didn't disappoint. Our server was very helpful and the service was pretty quick. The space was nice and cozy and they also had a small patio area if you wanted to enjoy outside. I would go back for sure.

    Fried calamari (EXCELLENT) and a knife with magnetic properties!
    Scott G.

    Really good place. The Fried Calamari was fantastic. Beware of the Avocado Toast... the "toast" is like 1-1/4" thick. Real good though, and my daughter loved the somewhat sweet salad dressing on the arugula and spinach on the side salad. The Benedicts were really good too, and mine was the Crispy Chicken. I wasn't expecting a spicy Benedict, but it was mixed with buffalo sauce. I did like it though, and they're really into something with the pickled onions. Great combo. Even the home fries were good. Loved my iced tea with some simple sugar. The wife discovered that the base of the knives are magnetic, some stronger than others. That was interesting. If we could change one thing, we would make it just a tad less noisy, but it's a nice atmosphere and we had a great meal. Happy 4th!

    Fried Chicken Eggs Benny
    Bar S.

    Went with a group of 6 and we had mixed feelings. I thought the food was delicious. I got the fried chicken eggs benny. It was really good. I thought one of the best eggs Benedict dishes I've had but others felt it was just okay. The wait time to get the food wasn't great. Leaning towards the longer side. The real issue was an automatic 22% gratuity added for large parties. I'm not sure if I consider 6 people a large party and 22% seems excessive for automatic gratuity. 18% makes more sense and giving the option for more tip is more sensible. On top of that there is a 3% credit card fee. The food itself thought was already pretty pricey to begin with. Nice vibe but likely won't go there again.

    We drove by and thought this might be a place to stop and have brunch especially on a rainy day we weren't expecting visiting from AZ. Sean was our favorite exceptionally amazing person waiting on us that made our experience that much more special during our stay in Providence. I'm sorry Sean if I spelled your name incorrectly. I should asked. He was the best. The host which I failed to ask his name was also very attentive to us which was unnecessary but appreciated. He should also be praise for excellent service. I have nothing but wonderful things to say about The Patio. If I were a local, this would be my place to be. The food, cocktails and service were exceptional by far and I've been to many foodie places. I would come here over and over again. Thank you.

    Focaccia CBR
    Katie N.

    Nice spot for brunch. We will definitely come back but it's not likely to become my favorite spot. We were able to get reservations the night before and it seemed like there were a few open bar spots for a 10-11am seating on Saturday. Our waitress was very friendly and checked in regularly. Street parking only but it's not too challenging to find a spot. The food was tasty, it seems like they have their savory dishes in lock but their sweet plates are just ok. I got the focaccia CBR, which was good. The focaccia was herby and chewy but I'm not sure I would call it a fococcia. My friend got the breakfast burrito and said it was excellent! My husband got the short rib benedict and it was SO good, however I recommend finding someone to split that and another dish with as the flavor gets to be a lot for a whole dish. The last person got the s'mores French toast and felt it was just ok. The coffees looked better than they tasted, perhaps the cocktail versions are better.

    I really like The Patio! I was so happy to see this restaurant have life again, The Grange was here previously and was amazing. I have eaten at the patio for brunch and dinner, it's always very good, space is clean, and staff are friendly. They have really good brunch cocktails and options for different dietary restrictions. I recently went to the patio to celebrate their 3 year anniversary. Food was good. My only complaint is that they didn't put out enough plates, napkins, and utensils for the appetizers they had out for the event. I'm going back for brunch in a few weeks when Sam is bartending!

    Another fun night at The Patio on Broadway! This time a special event with my girlfriends to celebrate the restaurant's 3rd birthday party and it was such a great time. The provided lite bites were delicious and we each sampled a few different cocktails throughout the evening that were all fresh, fun and perfect for kicking off summer in the city. The atmosphere here is always upbeat and welcoming. Everyone on staff was delightful and Mike, per usual, was his amazing self making sure everyone was having a great time. Congratulations to The Patio team on 3 years! Cheers to another fun summer season in Providence. We'll definitely be back soon.

    Personalized mocktail

    I came here with some friends after an event across the street. I only had time for a quick drink and chose the lavenade. I was impressed with the bright magenta color. My first instinct was to lick the sugar and lavender rim, followed by taking a sip. There is a perfect balance between lemonade and lavender; neither overpowers each other which I was very thankful for. The initial flavor is lemonade, followed by a lavender flavor that kicks in halfway through. Shama waited our table and did a fantastic job of bringing us everything we needed.

    Chicken and waffles!

    I went in to talk to Sampson, very good bartender! Everything was on point. I ordered the Lavenade and substituted mezcal for the vodka. It was so good it could drive you to moon. Very refreshing cocktail, made with lavender simple syrup and dels lemonade. I wish I could order one to go!

    Coconut cocktail
    Maria J L.

    Food/Drinks: I genuinely love going to this spot for the food and drinks. I've gone three times, and each time the food has been top-tier, especially the Milanese and rigatoni. It's genuinely so delicious, the portions are great, a bit larger than other restaurants, and extremely filling. I have to say the best part has been discovering this coconut cocktail. I wish I knew the exact name, but it's definitely coconut something. This drink is beyond strong. My husband and I have gone there and gotten two each, and let's just say that by the time we left, we needed an Uber. So strong and so delicious. I haven't tried their brunch yet, but if it's as good as their dinner menu, this is definitely the spot! Location: This location has dim lighting for dinner and is very modern and spacious. It has a bar, and it's just very nice overall. I would definitely dress business casual. This is a perfect place for special occasions, meeting up with coworkers, or even a date. They do not offer valet, and I recently found out they have parking, but whenever we've gone, it's always been full, so we've had to find street parking. I won't lie the street parking can be a bit tricky and sometimes requires a bit of a walk. Service: The service has always been great. The last waiter we had took a bit longer with some of our items, so he didn't charge us for one of our drinks, which was so nice of him. Honestly, we didn't even feel like we were waiting that long. Wish I remembered his name to give him credit for his kindness. I will definitely be going back, no questions about it!

    Delicious cocktail
    Alicia B.

    What a great experience! We had a lovely dinner here. The drink we had was called Providence and it was sweet, unique, and delicious. There was a nice dinner week menu with great deals for $40 (a three course meal). I decided to get the chicken n waffles though and it was a wonderful choice. The bacon was nice and crispy. The waitress Christine was friendly and helpful. She gave us great suggestions and fantastic service. The atmosphere was clean and beautiful. Clean bathrooms. Highly recommend!

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.

Rock music played not too loudly in the background as we were served and as we looked at the menu. The menu is digital. I hate this. Maybe they had a physical menu, but we didn't ask. We grumbled amongst ourselves and scanned the QR code and used our phones. It might seem like a small thing, but I really, really hate using my own phone to look at a restaurant's menu while at sitting at the restaurant. Anyways, I digress. For drinks, we got the chai latte (with oat milk) and coffee. We ordered the Special Eggs Benedict (half portion, for one person) and the shakshuska. The coffee was good. I appreciate the attentiveness of our server and that they came to refill the coffee. I really like the chai latte and glad that they listed which one it is (Rishi Masala Chai). The egg benedict has a really thick homemade bacon. It is soft and falls apart readily, but was a tad too salty. The bread was a bit tough and too thick for our liking (maybe we should have read the description more carefully oops, because when they say thick they meant thick). The fries were tasty. There was just one egg for a $26 benedict. The shakshuka was my first time trying shakshuka! To me, it tastes pretty similar to chili. I really enjoyed its tangy tomato and spicy flavors. There were two eggs in it. Honestly, I think it would be better with like four eggs. Now, the garlic bread: the garlic bread was so good, so garlicky. The garlic bread was both of our favorite. Overall, good vibes and good food and good customer service.

Self serve milk was at a station in the dining room area. Coffee was good, cold but I would have traded some coffee for a bit more ice to stay that way as I drank it slowly. Both of us were surprised when our meals were delivered: the plates were beaut! In particular his omelet was absolutely gorgeous! Now for the flavors: the omelet had a generous helping of perfect cooked eggs (not sitting in a pile of grease, as restaurant omelets frequently are). It was so fluffy that we both thought "that's way more than the advertised 3 eggs," and the lox was thickly layered whole slices nestled inside the fold. Most places chop the lox like vegetables, add it to the eggs, & make it like a veggie omelet - meh. This iteration was perfect; the lox tasted like smoked salty fish, losing none of that flavor to the omelet itself. The potatoes? Fabulous! Great spice mix, cooked until they were crispy. That was a tasty bit of marble rye toast too. My shakshuka was very good, but a bit less successful. The elements were all excellent; the avocado was actually guacamole since it was mashed & there were tomatoes and spices in the dish. The combination worked, except for the bread element. The dish as presented was really more of an avocado toast with shakshuka on top. It might have been more successful to add the avocado/guacamole as a unique base on the plate, with the tomato sauce and eggs on top with toast on the side (as is the way shakshuka is traditionally served) because halfway through the bread got really soggy & less appetizing. Still, the first few bites, while everything was still warm? So good!
