Need a great restaurant for dinner in Providence Rhode Island Fast
 
We need a few good restaurants for dinner in Providence, Rhode Island. We like a wide variety of food. My husband likes seafood, although this is not a favorite of mine.
Many thanks.

I have always liked Al Forno's.

We just ate at Hemingway's this weekend and it was excellent.

Cali, I'm in Boston. What's the food like?

Try Camille's. 71 Bradford St. Federal Hill. Great food, great presentation, great service.

Another vote for Camilles.

If I'm not mistaken, "Al Forno" means in/from the oven -- not a guy named Al with lastname Forno!

But as citysearch says about this place, it's "snob central". Still, the grilled pizza's very good.

I'm not sure about its' rep, but I've always liked Mediterraneo on Atwells, also in Federal Hill. DH just took me on my birthday (also a Waterfire evening) and the food was great, the service attentive without being pushy. Nice thing about Atwells is that after dinner you can always stroll the street and count all the Italian restaurants (not to mention cute valets, Porsches, Ferraris, etc) and you will eventually get sucked in to buying cannoli somewhere... Have fun!

I second the vote for Heminways especially if your husband likes seafood. I also recommend the website tasteri.com which has links to reviews of the restaurants and information regarding restaurants throughout Rhode Island.

Hello,
I recommend the Barnsider on South Main in Providence (barnsiderrestaurants.com)
They have a good menu and a great salad bar. enjoy! Kenm
