Not sure how I have not visited the Roasted Garlic previously, do NOT make the same mistake I have and miss out on this deli delight!! Plenty of sandwich, soup and salad options to feed that hunger. One can even build their own if they want to change it up from the normal selection. Have a party? They cater as well! This is an amazing place to take care of your food needs! Had the Italian as part of RI Food Fights menu and it was a phenomenal combination of ham, capicola, salami, provolone, lettuce, tomato, red onion, pepperoncini, OG vinaigrette on a baguette. Good portion of meats with the fresh veggies that tasted delicious. Grabbed a juice along with a little swag, premade corn beef and cabbage meal and a chourico pie for later. Breakfast menu and drinks look tasty and look forward to sampling those when able as well. Small kids menu to keep the little ones at bay. Service was very friendly as I asked a ton of questions being in for the first time. Ensure to stop by, you will not be disappointed!! read more

My friend and I were in the area while on a mini-vacation. We used Yelp to find a good place for lunch. We certainly did! I had the Chopped Italian salad and my friend ordered the Harvest salad. Both were fresh and delicious! I took the menu to leave with my son, who lives in Pawtucket. read more

Stopped in for a quick sandwich today. Delicious! Friendly and efficient staff. Huge selection of sandwiches and salads. I chose a Cubano and it was huge (ate half and saved the other half for dinner). I didn't have anything to drink but it looked like they had cold brew on tap. read more

Stopped in yesterday. Ordered an egg and cheese on sourdough. Talk about a healthy sandwich! Two eggs with cheese and it may had a lite sauce or flavored butter. It was delicious!! I usually go there on my way into Newport periodically. I'm never disappointed. Plus all the people there are amazing! Amazing menu! I definitely recommend. read more

Stopped by for lunch recently and, wow, we we impressed! Just an ordinary little mini strip-mall storefront. The kinda place you don't even notice driving by. Inside, it's clean, warm and welcoming. We had planned on grabbing our sandwiches to go. This would be a great stop en route to the nearby beaches. But, an open corner table convinced us to stay eat in. I chose the Thanksgiving and was very happy with that selection. Unusually, it was made with fresh roasted turkey breast - not the turkey deli meat you usually find. Perfect balance of stuffing, cranberry & mayo on a crusty French roll. Delicious and really hits the spot when you are craving a turkey dinner! When my partner picked the Cubano, I was a bit concerned. We had lived in South Florida for more than a decade & had enjoyed Cubans from some of the best. Could this live up? While we lack good Cuban bakeries for the perfect bread in coastal RI, the pressed baguette was a good substitute. And, like our other sandwich, the fillings were high quality and well balanced. Another great sandwich! A delicious, huge cookie, chips and drinks rounded out a very good The Roasted Clove is our new favorite sandwich stop in the area! read more

The Roasted Clove in Middletown lives up to its bold slogan: "Treat Your Garlic With Respect." And wow, do they ever. We were doing the RI Food Fights #BestSandwichRI challenge & we were so happy to find this gem! The atmosphere is warm & inviting, staff clearly takes pride in both their food & service. You can tell this is a place that values quality ingredients & thoughtful preparation. I selected a personal favorite: muffaletta. The first time I came across this delicious sandwich was in New Orleans at Central Grocery in the French Quarter. There it starts with a large, round, sesame-crusted Italian loaf. At The Roasted Clove, it was on a more focaccia-like bread. Then it is filled with a stack of soppressata, mortadella, black forest ham & provolone. The real star (for me) is the zesty olive salad: a tangy, briny mix of chopped green olives, garlic, capers, celery & carrots, all marinated in olive oil & herbs. YUM! Hubby selected the Italian: ham, sweet capicola, Genoa salami, provolone, lettuce, tomato, red onion, pepperoncini with the OG parmesan vinaigrette on a baguette. He loved it. From the take out cooler, I selected the Sweet Potato Salad. It was so good that I found a recipe with similar ingredients & went to the grocery store to buy them so I could make it at home. Sweet potatoes, dried cranberries, crumbled feta, red onion slivers, chopped parsley with a dressing of Dijon, honey, cumin, paprika, apple cider vinegar & EVOO. Savory yet slightly sweet, light but filling. A perfect accoutrement to the delicious sandwiches. Highly recommend read more

There's something deeply satisfying about a place that doesn't try too hard but still manages to get everything right. The Roasted Clove in Middletown, RI, is a culinary diamond that isn't very rough - a place where quality ingredients and skilled hands converge without any unnecessary pretension. Walking in, you're immediately struck by its unpretentious clarity of purpose. Clean lines, wooden tables paired with black metal chairs, light-filled space with blue accent walls - it's a spot that says "we care about the details" without shouting it in your face. The soundtrack of Taylor Swift, Ariana Grande, and Dua Lipa pulsates through the space, creating an atmosphere that's decidedly millennial but welcomes all. This isn't some faux-rustic temple of reclaimed wood where you pay for the Instagram opportunity as much as the meal. No, this is a bright, welcoming place for people who expect to get what they pay for. The menu board - a massive, hand-lettered masterpiece - looms above the counter with a depth and breadth that might induce a mild panic attack in the chronically indecisive. But here's the beauty: whether you land on the "Surfer's End" with its grilled chicken and avocado, or the "Thanksgiving" sandwich that brings November's greatest hits to your table year-round, you're in good hands. Their "Build Your Own" section offers an embarrassment of options - various breads (baguette, wheat, sourdough, wraps), proteins ranging from roast beef to turkey to veggie options, and cheeses from provolone to feta. The "Pressed Sandos" section promises the grill-kissed goodness that promises to transform a good sandwich into something approaching transcendent. And don't sleep on their house "OG Sauce" - a magical concoction of red wine vinegar, Parmesan, roasted garlic, mayo, and Italian seasoning that elevates whatever it touches. I went straight for the Meatball Sub, and my friends, this isn't some phoned-in, sauce-from-a-jar disappointment. These are serious meatballs - tender, well-seasoned, sitting proudly in a sauce that knows its role isn't to overwhelm but to complement. The provolone and parmesan add the necessary sharp, salty counterpoint, while the baguette - that crucial delivery system - strikes the perfect balance between crusty exterior and chewy interior. What makes this sandwich work is restraint. The sauce isn't overloaded with oregano trying to scream "I'M ITALIAN!" at your taste buds. The meatballs aren't dense orbs of despair. Everything plays its part. The display cases reveal a wealth of other treasures - house-made spanakopita, meat pies, various salads (the tarragon chicken looks tempting, roasted vegetables, and sides like mac and cheese and sweet potatoes. The Roasted Clove is not reinventing the wheel - it's just making a really inviting, tasty wheel. Just quality ingredients handled with care and served in a space that makes you want to hang out. This spot isn't trying to change your life. It's just trying to make lunch better. And in that modest but essential mission, it succeeds admirably. read more

I've passed this strip mall 100 times on my way to the growers market over the summer. But thanks to the RI Food Fights Sandwich Showdown, I finally made my way inside. The interior is bright and open, with a variety of drinks and prepared foods on display. They have a good selection of sandwiches and wraps but we settled on the meatball sub and the roasted veggie wrap. The young man at the counter was quite patient with us as we haggled with each other over what to have and who would pay The meatballs were tender and had good flavor. Definitely lived up to the Nana title. The baguette was slightly chewy but didn't resist too much as you bite into it. The wrap had a nice mixture of vegetables and the arugula was fresh. The bites that had the garlic aioli were quite tasty but the vegetables were a little under seasoned otherwise. I was wishing for a zip, a zing... something tangy. The pricing was very reasonable for the two sandwiches and you can tell they try to use top quality ingredients. I'm glad I stopped through this month, because now I know my go to spot on my way to the markets this summer read more

The Roasted Clove, very happy to have found this little hole in the wall. They have quite the selection of food, cold cut sandwiches, hot sandwiches, pressed sandwiches, soups, salads, classic deli sides, you name it, they probably have something for every mood. I ordered the cubano. This sandwich from most places is typically solid, but many fail to stand out- this one does. A pressed buttery baguette with some deliciously seasoned pulled pork, mustard, a generous amount of Swiss, mustard, house made pickles, and a few slices of black forest ham.. It was fantastic. From the first bite, I knew I was in for a great sandwich. Most places just have some plain ol shredded pork and don't take the time to thoroughly season it, this pork could have stood on its own without the other sandwich ingredients. The acidity from the pickles, richness the Swiss lends to things overall and the crisp buttery baguette made this sandwich hard to put down- I didn't want to stop chowing down. This was a roughly $13 sandwich, a great value. I was a little hungry after, but if you get a side you will likely not run into that, I have an abnormal appetite and we did a ton of walking before this. My wife got the surfers end and it's a bit more of a substantial portion mainly because of the vegetables and the volume that 2 big grilled chicken tenders brought in. It was tasty, I was able to sneak a bite. Value, quality, flavor and service earned this place an easy 5 stars. Will absolutely be back and highly recommend! read more

Delicious soup. My son got the beef strew. I got chicken noodle soup and since I have a head cold, just what the Dr. ordered. Called to confirm soup of day and service was great. Distractions because so many yummy things to eat. read more

I stop at the roasted clove at least twice a week on my way home from work and it never fails me. Food is always fresh and prepared quickly. Everyone who works there is efficient and kind. The menu is extensive and you can make your own sandwich if you want to. This is the best deli on aquidneck and a must try for all sandwich lovers!! read more

I hired them to cater an event for me last summer. The food was absolutely amazing! The quality was all that and then some. Additionally, considering the above it was also very reasonably priced.

Warning this restaurant is habit forming! I moved to Middleboro 2 months ago and have been there at least a Dozen times. Food is fresh quality and delicious. Staff are friendly and accommodating. One of the best deli style places I have ever been to. If you haven't been there yet you are missing out! read more

I've gone 3 times in just as many weeks, getting something different each time and I have yet to be disappointed. Every sandwich has been well balanced in flavor and texture. The baguette bread is both sturdy enough to withstand the sauciness of the marinara on the meatball sub without being so hard that it makes it hard to eat. The pressed sandwiches are beautifully crisp on the outside and hot and soft on the inside. It's hard to pick a favorite as every sandwich scratches a different itch, but the Fig and Prosciutto is probably one I will always be in the mood for. Everything is quite reasonably priced as well! read more

I didn't actually end up eating here so I'm not sure. I heard so many great things about this place but the service was so bad I walked out. I stepped up to the counter and ordered one of the sandwiches. I wanted to make one modification to it, which was omitting cheese and the girl at the front must've been new. She didn't know what she was doing. Looked at me told me we can't do that. Meanwhile, there's a senior person behind assembly sandwiches and she looked back at her and she's like I don't know how to do this we can't do this. We can't modify cheese and for like 14 minutes they sat there trying to modify cash register button so that they could tell the guy who's standing right there to make my sandwich without cheese at one point I just said forget about it guys. It's not a big deal. I don't need a sandwich and I walked out. read more

I visited The Roasted Clove for the first time, not knowing what to expect from this little sandwich shop / deli in a small plaza in Middletown, but I was pleasantly surprised! First off, the name is so cute! The Roasted Clove! I know you shouldn't judge a book by its cover, but I did (because I love garlic) and it worked out in my favor in this case. The store was quaint and inviting, light and bright - good initial impression. The worker behind the counter greeted us with a smile and politely took our order. They have an extensive menu consisting of a wide variety of sandwiches, wraps, and salads. There really is something for everyone here. I ordered the Surfer's End wrap and I really enjoyed it! This wrap was massive, I certainly did not leave hungry. In fact, I needed to go for a passeggiata afterwards. The chicken in the wrap was cooked really well. It was juicy and moist. I also liked that it was a whole chicken breast, rather than chunks or strips. The basil aioli melded with the avocado very nicely, and the arugula provided a refreshing crispness. This wrap would be the perfect accompaniment to an afternoon on the beach. I would certainly go back and I'd recommend this spot to anyone looking for a filling and satisfying sandwich. read more

This was OK. I saw this business in Instagram and couldn't wait to try them. I was vacationing in Narragansett and visiting from CT. I ordered the Tarragon Chicken Salad Wrap. The garlic wrap was good. The chicken salad was bland and they did not include the bacon that was supposed to be included It was a big disappointment I did buy one of each of the cookies they had on display to go. Hope it makes up for it. read more

Great counter service. Good selection and excellent food. Small shop with limited seating but great for pick up and go.

Beyond wonderful - interesting and delicious.; I will drive back from Mass just to get another Frenchman or Queen Brie!!

4.5-Yelp, please give the people what they want-1/2 stars!! Put this place on my 2024 food bucket list. We got a Thanksgiving, Italian, 4 small sides, 2 chips and 2 salted caramel cookies-total was $54. The sandwich was great. My only small issue was there being too much flour on the bottom half of the baguette-however they bake their bread in house so bonus points there. All the "salads" we got were great. My faves were the farro salad and the blt pasta salad. Service was great-high quality ingredients-plenty of parking-inside tables. Will be my go-to on the island. This place should be packed, all day-every day. read more

Stopped here for lunch with a friend. This place is new to me and in my general neighborhood. So happy we decided to give it a try. We both had salads. They were delicious and a good value for the money. My only small complaint was the tomatoes (one of my fav ingredients) in my salad were icky so I took them all out but otherwise yummy. My friend enjoyed her chicken Caesar salad as well. They have a varied menu, fair pricing and the staff was friendly. Very clean establishment. Be patient as it's currently on a street that's under repair. read more

I picked up French Onion soup - to go. It was packed so thoughtfully- I asked for the croutons on the side so they wouldn't get too soggy. When I tell you I stood at the kitchen counter when I got home much later and tossed in those amazing crunchy croutons into the rich onions and the cheese was melted perfectly. It didn't make the transfer to a bowl. I ate it out of the container and it was so delicious. I never write reviews- but this soup was so perfect. Weather was dismal, cold, slush & rain. I was so happy to go into the deli and it was bright and warm and everyone was so cheerful. OH!! And I forgot the best thing! I bought some of their house made pickles and put them in the fridge. Later on I tasted the perfect not too spicy just kicky enough crisp & fresh. I loved those. Going back to try sandwiches. Thumbs up. read more

Good spot for ordering sandwiches and salads. Got a large sandwich platter along with the Greek salad and the Mexican corn salad. Sandwiches were all very good and the presentation was excellent. Both salads were quite good; each salad can easily serve 18-20 people contrary to what the website says. Their sandwich platter went up in price from $90 to $120 :/ Overall it was a good experience. The road leading up to the store is under renovation. read more
