We drive by their plaza all the time & never knew they were there. They have a bunch of sauces but were offering: - 401 (buffalo base sauce mild in nature & savory, it's a little twist on their buffalo mild) - 716 Mulberry (buffalo base sauce its a medium spice, it's a little twist on their buffalo medium) - Loganberry BBQ (it's a berry BBQ sauce with a blend of raspberry & blackberry infused into BBQ sauce) Hubby ordered the 716 Mulberry, I ordered the Loganberry BBQ. When you close your eyes & dream of the perfect buffalo sauce for wings, this is it. We also very much enjoyed the Loganberry BBQ with the char on the wings, not too sweet & a nice bit of heat. We were in the mood for a little something else so we ordered a small cheese pizza. YUM! We got to chat with one of the owners for a while & she couldn't have been nicer. She made us try the PJ's Crystal Beach Original Loganberry drink they have at the soda station. Not my cup of tea but hubby liked it (especially if you added a spritz of vodka!). We will be back for the Beef of Weck. And we will forgive them for being Buffalo Bills fans! NOM NOM NOM #YUM

This was my first stop for the 2026 #LordOfTheWings RI Food Fights challenge. I had heard good…read morethings about this place from colleagues and I was excited to try it. For the competition, they were offering three of their signature sauces I went with the 716 Mulberry. Their menu describes it as a "Buffalo Base Sauce. It's a little twist on our buffalo medium". The wings came out hot and were so crispy. No breading, just a crisp wing with the perfect amount of sauce. The spice was medium in my estimation BUT I know a lot of people will find them a bit on the hot side. The base was definitely buffalo as advertised with added spices that really switched up in a nice way. They were on the salty side, but not in a bad way. I very much enjoyed their take on a traditional buffalo sauce. The atmosphere of the restaurant was nice. We went on a Sunday during football season so they had four screens playing the days games. Most people seem to be coming in for takeout which makes sense but they were plenty of tables for beauty said that if you plan to eat at the restaurant. They had both fountain and cooler, soft drinks and a beer selection on tap. They offer counter service and our cashier was very friendly and answered all my questions about the menu choices. They do charge about $17 for 10 wings which I find a bit on the pricey side however they are a good quality so if you're gonna splurge, you won't be disappointed in the wing

RI Food Fight- Lord of the Wings 2025 Review:…read more First time at TD Chicken! When we walked in, immediately received a nice greeting from the cashier welcoming us. I noticed it was 1. modern and 2. clean. (But I also noticed that there are 2 steps as soon as you walk in- just a heads up.) Our order: Thai Chili wings 1 ham & cheese empanada Water juice diet coke Cheetos And it only cost $6 (Keep in mind we had the wing coupon) But it's also 2025 and I LOVE that they are not price gorging the customer! 1. The empanada: 2 were in our bag! I liked their empanada. Cooked just right. The ham was tiny little cubes and it wasn't oozing with cheese that it's messy. It was just right! 2. The wings: I liked the wings. I do think they aren't fresh but if they were in my neighborhood I would order from them every so often. The thai chili was standard. The owner walked in. Another super friendly greeting! He was super chatty and I learnt that they have only been open for 6 months. I also learned that they have a few more flavors not currently posted on the screen- so ask! Overall: I am rooting for this place!

Wieners are a bit pricey - but tasty I've had several menu items and all hit the spot. Looks like they are opening a second location in West Warwick - even closer to me - so I'm excited to frequent there more often. A+++

We decided to check this place out, because I LOVE wings! I have to say we were very disappointed!…read moreThe service was terrible, we waited at the bar a long time before being acknowledged and it wasn't even busy. The bar tender seemed very distracted. Once we finally ordered our food took close to an hour to come out. We ordered wings with buffalo sauce and blue cheese on the side and fries. I didn't care for the buffalo sauce at all. The bar tender never came back to ask us if we liked our food. Thankfully a young woman who gave us our food checked on us after a while and told the bartender we needed a refill on our drinks. The ambiance was pretty typical for a small bar. While we were there they had a Gin Rummy night and the people taking part seemed to be having a good time. Not sure how they became runner ups for best wings. We won't be back. Too bad because it's close by and if the wings and service were good we would have been regulars.

Rosario Drive has a dead end and Tomaselli's at Rosario is at the end of the line, across from a…read morefactory in Silver Lake. You're there because you meant to be there. And you made a great life choice. Walk into Tomaselli's and you know what the building used to be. Walls covered in decades of family photos, weddings, graduations, communion parties. Gaming chairs at the bar. Banquet tables with black tablecloths. Hardwood floors. Multiple TVs playing whatever game is on. Stackable chairs. This was the Rosario Society, an Italian-American social club. Tomaselli's moved in here in 2010 and kept the bones intact. I ordered a small pizza as an appetizer. My friends got wings as a meal. Lots of wings. The pizza came out on a black pan. Square. Thick crust, about an inch and a half tall on the edges. Pepperoni cups scattered on top with fresh parsley. I picked up a slice and it crunched, then the interior had great chew to it. That texture held through to the center. Sauce with real body, plenty of it, more savory than sweet. The cheese pulled hard, but let the pepperoni do most of the flavor work. The slices never sagged, never folded. This isn't Detroit style or grandma style. It's thicker crust Italian pizza without needing to fit into someone else's category. The wings arrived and the table went quiet. Tomaselli's offers twenty-six wing flavors. Not variations on buffalo sauce. Twenty-six actually different things. Bouryaki, a bourbon-teriyaki. Pink Vodka. French Toast wings. Pepperoni Pizza wings with chopped pepperoni, pizza sauce, and mozzarella on chicken. Antipasto wings with Italian cold cuts and banana peppers. Chicken Parmigiana wings with marinara. Our friend Jim, a legit foodie who has traveled the world, tried the antipasto wing and laughed out loud for a full minute. We couldn't tell if that meant good or bad until he finally said, "This is f-ing awesome." The consensus from our crew, who've been scouring the state looking for the best wings: these are the best wings we've had in Rhode Island. Half-price on Wednesdays for dine-in, by the way. Just saying. The chicken parmigiana arrived next and I understood why they keep aluminum catering pans behind the counter. A butterflied chicken breast the size of a pterodactyl, covered in marinara and melted mozzarella. Pasta on the side. A bowl of chicken soup. I ate until I couldn't eat anymore. Two large pieces of that chucken breast still sat on my plate, mocking me. Twenty-four dollars for the parm. Three meals from that one plate. Quite a bargain. Silver Lake was settled by Italian immigrants in the early 1900s, most from Southern Italy. They built St. Bartholomew's Church in 1907. They formed societies like Rosario where families gathered and celebrated life events together. The building remembers that history. So does the food. Places like this don't make sense anymore. The portions are absurd. The chicken parm needs an aluminum catering pan to get it home. But walk into that old social club building at the dead-end of Rosario Drive, sit down at one of those banquet tables, and you'll understand what Tomaselli's is doing. They're feeding you the way Silver Lake used to feed its own. The way famiglia feeds famiglia. Mangia.

Wow. Just wow. I think I've found the very best wings in Rhode Island…read more I came here for a solo dinner tonight with a coupon from my RI Food Fights Lord of the Wings coupon. Tomaselli's took over an old catering hall, and I was concerned before I came that I would be one person at a giant table. But then I saw a picture of the bar surrounded with leather padded deal chairs and I knew I needed to sit at that bar asap. The building is set back from the road and the parking lot is of a decent size, if a bit tight at some of the turns. Walking in, you definitely get the sense it's a hall but if you're solo just head left and the bar is right there waiting for you The bartender was a friendly guy, I never got his name. He took great care of me, checked in regularly. They have an incredible list of wing sauces, and I chose the pepper relish parm wings, which felt so freaking Italian I couldn't pass it up. I also got a small cheese, pepperoni and black olive pizza. Finally, a sangria to sip while I dined. The wings....the wings were incredible. Definitely my winner for the month by miles. They will be hard to beat. It was super oily from the peppers, it was dripping down my chin, but it was so tangy and delicious I couldn't stop eating it until they were all gone. The wings themselves were very meaty and fried hard like I would get in New York state. I think someone in their kitchen is from somewhere upstate New York because I rarely get wings that well fried outside of that state! After I polished those off, the pizza came. It was piping hot, rectangular and cooked to a golden brown. I ignored the heat and went for a slice. Buttery and crisp crust, rich and thick sauce, extra stretchy cheese, the pie was a lesson in generosity. The pepperonis were crispy like I like and the black olives had a more pronounced flavor than you usually find as well. Top notch pizza all around. I couldn't wait to tell my friends about this place, I was texting them in the car about my great experience. Living on the other side of Providence I will definitely be back, for more wings (half priced on Wednesday) and to try some of their entrees. I hear the chicken parm is outstanding! Until next time, Tomaselli's. You've gained a new regular customer out of me!

It was the first time for my group so I was excited to introduce them. We got an order of the pretzel sticks to start and they were great. I was busy yapping with Keith at the bar when they arrived so no picture of that lol Our pizzas arrived and we dove in. We got the Italian Sausage Margarita, All About That Pig and a black olive pineapple pizza. My group mates really liked the pizza. The pig pizza had an awesome Carolina Gold BBQ sauce on it (my favorite style), the sausage went fantastic on a margarita, new flavor combo unlocked! And the roommate that got the black olive pineapple pizza inhaled it and said that This Guy's Pizza is Two Thumbs Up all the way for her. I really love the texture of their crust, it's a delicate kind of crispy and yields to a pleasant softness. Given that we live about 12 minutes up Route 6 from them, I know it's only a matter of time before we're back there again!

The staff was very courteous and the whole ordering/paying process was as it should be - easy! I took it home and it had just cooled enought to eat it. This is the type of pizza I love. A thinker crust, loaded with mozzarella, and a nice sauce that was not overwhelming. The sausage had a nice spice to it. (For the record, I am not a fan on New Haven style pizza, which seems to be popular in RI - this is not that. Nor is it New York style - which I do like BUT not over the style that Maria's serves.) I aslo added some wings to the order (this time spicy BBQ). Those were good as always. It also should be said that I had left over pizza and it reheated nicely! They now are my go to pizza place.

We both ordered the Classic Smash Burger, one with cheese and one without. Unfortunately, both burgers were utterly tasteless, with virtually no seasoning detected at all. The Chomp Sauce that was supposed to elevate the burger was so sparse it barely made an appearance, leaving the burgers bland. Honestly, the bun was the best part. The brussel sprouts I ordered also lacked flavor and seasoning aside from the char, and his Cajun fries were so salty they were nearly inedible. After driving from Massachusetts to Rhode Island as a special Mother's Day treat, it ended up being a very disappointing experience, especially given the overwhelmingly positive reviews. We may have caught them on an unusually busy night, but unfortunately our meals fell far short of our expectations.
