Best Casual Restaurants in Providence

Nice little spot for a classy specialty drink. Menu is small but the food is spectacular.

Great experience. This was our second time at Circe. I had a Halibut special with lobster mash potatoes, asparagus and topped with shrimp. Terrific!

This was my 3rd time at the George. Food and service never disappoint! Both are exceptional! It’s pricier than other restaurants I typically visit, but it is so worth it! It is super noisy (all three times I have been sat at a 2-person table in the bar area; next time I will request to sit in the dining room area). If you love live music, the bar area is a great place to be, but don’t expect to have both music and conversation; also the locals sitting at the bar area definitely use their outdoor yelling voices to be heard over the music (so if you’re into ease-dropping, this could be your place! lol). In short, the bar is great if you know you’re walking in to a music and conversation room that will limit the amount of conversation you can have at your own table. If you are looking for dinner and conversation, I would not recommend NOT being sat in the bar area.

Pizza is amazing! Our waiter was awesome!!! It was Valentine’s Day and they did not rush us at all. Oh and the spicey tequila marg, sooooo good!

The carne asada entree and viva supreme tacos were outstanding, as was the red sangria and the strawberry margarita! Also, the service was terrific, with the owner himself coming to our table.
