We went to dinner on a rainy April night (no surprise itâs April ) we arrived to find the place packed but we were assured it would only be 10-20 minutes and was given the drink list while waiting. We ordered our drinks and they were bright to us in line while waiting on a table. We got our table and a carafe of water and glasses were brought to the table as we pondered the menu. I chose the dashi bowl and so delish I would order this many times over. My wife choose the crispy duck breast which was tender and juicy but could use just a touch more crisping. All in all a great meal and drinks with friends . The atmosphere was a bit loud but not where you couldnât hear your table. Julianâs is a true hidden gem a must try

A highlight of coming to Providence is enjoying fine dining. Hemenwayâs fresh seafood entrees are second to none. We enjoyed swordfish, king crab legs, salmon and a NY strip. Our server was delightful too. Thank you blueheaven1989. We are very happy you enjoyed and it is always a thrill to hear we were a highlight on a trip to Providence. We appreciate you joining us and hope we see you again soon. Gratefully,Nicole ChristieAssistant General Manager

I stopped here during a badly needed break from driving. Location is very clean. Menu is a bit different but you will find something you like. Try the applewood slab bacon, you wonât be sorry!! Food is fresh and hot and delicious. Staff here couldnât be friendlier!! Annalee was my waitress and she was absolutely sweet and professional. This place is not to be missed!!

Biggest problem with Greggs is the menu is to large so when you haven't been there for awhile it takes forever to pick something to eat. I had the sea scallops (which I can't get in FL where I live) and they were good. The side salad is always fresh here & can't beat the pickles & hot rolls. The other two friends had the chicken cutlets & a club which both were good. None of us splurged on the desserts....maybe next time!!

In Providence for RISD we looked for a gourmet white table cloth modern vibe venue. Gracies is it. Wonderful salad with locally sourced greens followed by fresh fish was cooked perfectly. Member of our party had pasta which was all dente and special. Excellent wines an elegant service. Iâll be back!

When we lived here we used to go here quite often but haven't been there in a few years. The food was as good as always....we had a pastrami pocket & a meatball & pepper torpedo. The bread is made there & very good. Only a couple bits of caution: the ice tea is horrible & the air conditioner was on about 58 but luckily had jackets in the car (wasn't even a hot day outside!) The waitress did take the ice teas off our bill & replaced with sodas.

Atmosphere is lovely. Busy bar scene. Immaculate, excellent service. I never had to request more water. Bread sticks and bread upon request. Choices for vegan and gluten free. Handicap accessible. Veal parmigiana was very good. Wonderful sauce/gravy for the pasta. The Pasta Con Pollo was good, but was weak on the chicken portion. Chicken pieces were very small and thin; much was over cooked.Thank you Bobbie. Thanks for the very kind review and we are glad you enjoy it here at Avvio. We are always glad to know our service makes a good impression. We will share your feedback on the Pasta con Pollo with our culinary team. They are always listening to guest feedback to find out how we can keep getting better. We hope you come back and join us again. Gratefully,Raul EstevesGeneral Manager
