Really nice aesthetic and ambiance. I like the vibe. I had a drink which was really good. Service was decent. I was a bit confused with saying it's black owned however almost all of the staff and customers did not reflect this. I'd give it another try and try the food read more

Recently stop in for lunch on a Saturday afternoon. They serve brunch on Saturdays which you can order breakfast or lunch dishes till 4:00 PM . It's a very eclectic, friendly & funky atmosphere.Decor & music is lively & soulful, but hip. The food is very good. They do take their time preparing the dishes but our lunches were very good. Definitely try their Banh Mi & the chicken sandwich (Sando's). I had read about this place & always was interested in trying it & was not disappointed. Service & staff also friendly & attentive. read more

Food and service is amazing. will def go again. Bar set and vibing music while you enjoy your breakfast. love ittttt

The cocktails were creative and refreshing. The menu was a little small but did have a lot of standard fare to accommodate most people. My burger felt a little simple for the price but it was still tasty. We arrived at a slow point so service was pretty smooth and fast. The bartender greeted us at our booth and came back often to check on us. The place has a tiki vibe but not overly so. read more

I have the burger of the day and it was delicious salty creamy crunchy delicious served with homemade fries! My husband had the special for that day a monkfish curry which was also delicious however it needed to be served with rice instead of a stew. Ambiance is artsy and colorful, and unique. Staff was friendly and service was great. We had a great time read more

Absolutely amazing . Great vibes as soon as we walked in - the wall art is SO unique and awesome and the music was great. I loved the dim and colorful lighting and the ambience. The seating is also so cool - there are regular tables as well as booths but also areas to chill and enjoy a meal or drink like swing chairs and the bar seemed super dope too. I ordered the Banh Mi and it was delicious - really great portion size too (I took half home and was stuffed!). My boyfriend ordered the Bifana and he thought it was super tasty as well. The fries were also different and so yummy! Will definitely be back to check out brunch soon! read more

It's been two years since I've visited Troop -- first for dinner and now for brunch! This time, I ordered their corned beef hash -- including a grilled baguette with herbed duck butter, homemade hash, and eggs. The extra additions paired well with the dish. Pretty filling. My friend ordered the stack of three cinnamon french toast with strawberry compote. Also, there was a good portion that could even be shareable. I was satisfied with the meal but thought the service was slow, and it wasn't busy at the restaurant that day. The conclusion is that the food is good, but the service is hit or miss. read more

Food is soooo good. Service is equally amazing. Had drinks and dinner one night and decided to return for brunch. Did not disappoint.

Got there at 5pm on a weekday and we were just about the only ones there...they open at 5. Got seated promptly by the open kitchen and were told to scan the QR code for the menu. I decided on the Banh Mi, my husband got the street noodles and a friend got the cheeseburger. The service was very friendly and nice, but the food took over 30 min to arrive at our table, in the meantime we had some nice conversations over the very LOUD music that was blasting all over the place...very loud.... The Banh Mi was good side. Lots of flavors the blend of braised pork belly, pate, cilantro. carrots & daikon. jalapeños. spicy mayo. french fries was really good....I liked my dish. The street noodles were very saucy, very salty, overwhelming flavor...too much for my taste. It was a large bowl with rice noodles. mixed veggies. cilantro. pickled red onion. carrot & daikon. street sauce. My husband got the fried chicken, our friend MaryAnn got the shrimp. Our friend Paul picked the cheeseburger and he was happy with it. Overall an average culinary experience. Not a place I would rush back....the loud music and the over seasoned noodles were not my cup of tea. read more

Excellent food, drinks, service, and atmosphere. The street noodles were incredible and our server was wonderful.

The perfect spot for a girls' brunch date! Service was great and the menu had something delicious for everyone.

The menu is as eclectic as the space. The art is everywhere and is out of this world. The music always fits the vibe. Come by with friends or all by yourself (like I did) - its all good. Tonight I enjoyed their beef stroganoff and a glass or red wine. A very large portion. I know what I am having for lunch tomorrow! read more

Amazing atmosphere. Great music and the menu is not only diverse but delicious. Must have

Great food, decent atmosphere. I've gone twice now, once with a large group (8) seated outside and once with just two of us sitting at the bar. Both times the food and drinks were incredible, service was great. With the large group Meg took excellent care of us, and while checking in enough she also made some great suggestions to spice up our orders, ice cream on the French toast is a MUST! It is a bit on the louder side, so just be aware of that if you're noise sensitive. I adjusted, and when we were outside it was nice. read more

Just over the state line was this beautiful brunch spot @trooppvd with its lovely decor. Friendly workers that were very knowledgeable of their menu. So we started off with the special. A Japanese Okonomiyaki pancake with pork belly & fresh veggies & egg. So unique & delicious. To the fluffy sweet pancakes with homemade whip cream with local syrup. But the stars were the warm cheddar biscuits with chorizo gravy. So let me tell you about that chicken biscuit sandwich with arugula, bacon jam sriracha. That was so juicy plump & dripping with flavor. Fresh ingredients to fresh cut fries. So worth the trip from CT to RI.. read more

I'd recommend to come here for dinner and brunch. Parking is strange people are always nice. Standard American food nothing out of this world except for the fire biscuits. I love the decor for a birthday party for your dad or boys. I am here to be genuine and I don't think it's amazing. Just average good food. read more

What an amazing place! Cool, rather super cool vibe! Dan was our server. From the get go, he was sweet and gave us good information on menu and their specials. Happily acted on our request to customize drinks or food (hubby wanted jalapeños added to the omelette too). Since he figured we like it hot, he brought some habanero sauce for us to try and it was yum (with some apricots in it). Crab cake itself was tender and fresh. Green sauce was super delicious. Much better improvement on just the regular hollandaise sauce. Omelette was genuinely the best. So well layered and mixed with veggies. Their biscuit was so flaky and yum .. it had cheddar in it and that made things more delicious. We would love to give this place another try when we are back in the area. read more

I love Troop! It's near me, so I have gone a bunch of times. They have tons of parking and their atmosphere is super cool. The drinks are normal priced, maybe on the little more expensive end but I always get top shelf for alcohol. Their brunch is amazing, and one of the best I have had in providence. It's definitely between Troop and Julian's for the best brunch in PVD. They have champagne bottles that you can get and a couple of different juices. They offer the champagne at all times, not just brunch. It turns into a bar/club at night. The staff is amazing and super nice! read more

I was really looking forward to having a fabulous brunch, but had only an ok experience. First the vibe inside is great - the décor, the bar. But the music is simply too loud for the space, for a Sunday brunch at least, especially at the tables around the bar. Of course music makes poor acoustics better (no overhearing every word of everyone at every table around you) but it also makes an intimate conversation more challenging. This may just be a one-time experience because there was a party of about 15 people sitting next to the bar, so we had music and their boisterousness to contend with and one of us is a low talker. Next, we were all disappointed that the menu limited us to ordering brunch and the brunch menu is less varied than many other places in PVD, tbh. I was hoping for the basic Troop burger; the Hangover Burger just has too much going on for me for a Sunday: bacon, egg, cheese, burger would have been too much lifting! My husband ended up getting the Hangover burger, I had the Local Farm Omelette, our friend ordered That Chicken Sandwich. The burger was delicious - but my friend and I were a bit disappointed. For me, the ratio of cheese to vegetables was way off for a dish that calls itself "Local Farm," way more cheese and fewer veggies than I expected. My friend was surprised that her chicken was fried. Now, for me that would have been heaven, but nope, she felt she should have been asked if she wanted fired or grilled like she would have been if she'd ordered the Farm Fresh Salad. Service was ok for just a regular day, but with that giant party near us I think the wait staff did really a good job. While they were a bit slow in getting to us, when our waiter came over he was attentive and thorough. So, definitely come for the burgers. Oh and the drinks, of course! read more

I freakin' love this place. They have consistently amazing food that switches up, and I dig that variety. The beef stroganoff is straight up the best I've ever had. The street noods and chicken nugs are perfect with some late night drinks. If anything isn't up to your standards, the customer service is flawless. Waitstaff is consistently awesome and friendly. Really awesome spot ambiance-wise, too. Great music, a patio, a huge bar if you just want to drink and grab a bite. Their brunch is also fantastic. This is a spot I recommend to all my friends when they come in and want a truly to have fun and hang out. read more

DE. LI. CIOUSSSSS. Went on a Sunday with some friends and the brunch was out of this world. We all had the specials, this was the Chicharrón special w beans, yuca fries and home fries. It was absolute perfection. Would 100% recommend -- can't wait to go back in a few weeks!! read more

I love this place, the vibe, the food, and the cocktails. I've been here a half dozen times now and I have to say, this is the best restaurant in Providence Let's start with the vibe, it's hipster/hip hop/graffiti/chic. There is Great Wall art everywhere. It's fun just to look around at all the stuff. The music when I went was a mix of new and old school hip hop. They have a small menu but everything is outstanding. The chicken nuggets are probably the best I've even had. I've been for brunch as well and the fried chicken sandwich on a cheddar biscuit... *chefs kiss* read more

Good place for brunch. Love their alto ego cocktail. Not too spicy and perfectly balanced with the passion fruit. For food, I got the fried chicken sandwich and key lime French toast. The French toast was excellent, was almost like a dessert pudding. Chicken sandwich is good although I'm not a fan of the jam. Fries were quite good. Overall good experience. read more

I'm always trying to find new spots to check out while traveling, and this is hands down my favorite I've seen in a while. Music is all hip hop and R&B, the decor is awesome, and the food and drinks were on point. Everyone was friendly and the staff clearly work together and care about each other. They even put Bluey on the TV for a young child who was there! They do brunch Friday through Sunday and it was phenomenal. read more

What a vibe!! I would give more than 5 stars if i could! - staff was super friendly, patient, and fun! Never in a rush, yet always checking in. Great suggestions for portions. We got the biscuits which were seriously amazing - try them! We got mimosas! I had the cardamom pancakes. They were perfect - grapefruit marmalade, whipped cream and honey butter, so good! I wouldn't normally put pancakes in a to go home box, but definitely did! It was loud inside and fun. Murals! Staff offered to help us take photos for a birthday. Disco ball! I will absolutely be back! ... oh and a parking lot! Which was such a bonus! read more

Troop PVD - THAT CHICKEN SANDWICH & vegan fried tofu BANH MI - New American Near Me - Providence, Rhode Island

I love a restaurant that has a good mix of vegan and non-vegan entrees! There's something for everyone, including gluten-free options. The vegan bahn mi with fried tofu was really good! It came on a super fluffy bread roll and the sauces were delicious. Service could have been better, it was just extremely slow. They had about 6 specials but they made the waitstaff tell us the specials verbally over the super loud music. If you're going to have that many specials and live music I feel like you should just print a specials list. Also they won't seat you if your whole party isn't there just FYI. I would come back mostly for the food! read more

I want to like this place really, really badly...I've been here twice and while the menu is creative, the food is just OK. The atmosphere and cocktails are what really drove me to go back the second time. If I go back, it will probably be for drinks. read more

WOWOWOWOW!This place is amazinggggg! The food, the ambiance, the music, did I mention THE FOOD?! My husband wanted to spend his birthday in RI with his friends so we set up a birthday brunch here at Troop. Our party had 14 people which we had a bit of trouble accommodating in their small space BUT thankfully it was a beautiful sunny day and we were able to sit outside in their patio seating area. We filled up 3 tables with our party. We all decided to order their personal mimosa package which came with your own bottle of champagne and your choice of juice (orange, passion fruit, cranberry and peach). Passion fruit was my favorite! When the food came out we were all in heaven. I think this place has THE BEST home fries I have EVER had! No exaggeration! Everyone was over the moon with their food, drinks and service. The only think I would complain about is that they charge $1 for each sauce that you request. We ended up spending a whole $10 just for sauces! (Tip: Their hot sauce really isn't your typical hot sauce. Definitely ask for only one for the whole table to taste before you order more!) Overall, I am in LOVE with this place and I can not wait to visit again! read more

My wife and I enjoyed our first visit. The decor is cool and hip (unlike that sentence). The service was fast and friendly and the food was excellent. The beer selection was perfect for us, lots of bold choices. We started with the okonomiyaki app. It was good, but I think I would've preferred something other than seafood in it, say pork belly. Bonito flakes are so strong that the last thing I needed was more seafood flavor. For entrees, I got the bánh mì, and it was spot on. My wife got the fried chicken sandwich (which I tried). I wished the bread that came on the chicken sandwich was a little bit more substantial. It ended up getting kind of soggy by the end. The fries were dark and crispy. I'll definitely go back. read more

Do not go. We waited over an hour for our food only to be disappointed. The coleslaw on the chicken sandwich was so salty that it was inedible, the $26 hanger steak was only 3 pieces (2-3 ounces max for what is already a cheap cut of steak), and service was also not good. In fact, our server Adam H. was incredibly passive aggressive after-the-fact and did not make us feel welcome. When we politely asked about the long wait time, he said that it was a "scratch kitchen" and "isn't fast food." He also proceeded to ask us point-blank "well do you need to be somewhere else right now or something?" Trying to parade the kitchen as a made-to-order place was laughable as the street noodles tasted like the chefs had never even seen a single dish from Southeast Asian cuisine before. I've never left a bad review before, but the service, lackluster food, and overwhelming atmosphere was too disappointing with such great reviews from others. Not to mention that this was our friend's birthday dinner, and it was immensely shocking how poor the service was. Avoid at all costs. read more
