This is such an insane perspective tbh. Almost no one outside of Providence residents will say this.

The food here in general is great, but I'll agree on the pizza. There are very few places that are above average - Sicilia, Vivaldi's, Providence Coal Fired, and of course the Frank Pepe's location in Warwick are the ones that come to mind. Then again I moved up here from the New Haven area, so my standards are high.

First, I love the name, lol

How long will this be available? I could really use it, but I'd have to arrange the day off with my job a couple weeks ahead of time for scheduling.

Not sure I agree with concrete desert, some good looking buildings around the city. The layout dates back 100s of years to when the mode of transportation was horses and they moved cattle and other animals around the city. With regards to the horrible roads and other infrastructure your gripes are well said. They waste taxpayer money elsewhere, zero accountability.

It’s definitely her lol

I agree, Boston people need to get off their high horses

And your last line is exactly why we left and came back home. Why the fuck would I pay $2500 in rent during a pandemic to have the privilege to pay $25 for a lousy burger at some mid “modern American” restaurant (seriously every other restaurant is this pretentious upscale gastropub bullshit). The two things I miss that I can’t get here are good bagels and Nepalese dumplings (momo).

It depends on the company. Some don't let you and make you toss it. Find out what the policy is before doing anything so you won't lose your job.

Area Four is on the level, wood fired pizza and hipster appeal. Providence has a lotttttt of pizza but honestly not many that I crave…

We worked with Real Property Management to get our apartment and they have been incredibly responsive. Even now if there is any issue I submit a ticket and they respond immediately. This building is a smaller 15 unit building.

contact Rescuing Leftover Cuisine! they can help identify where it might be best needed!

I’m cheering for Sly Fox Den Too, I used to eat at The Flume and I’m thrilled for Sherry. The nom is well deserved.

Great state, crappy government

Ok now this is just getting ridiculous….

Providence food bank

I second this, coffee exchange is great.

Coffee Exchange and Dave’s are my go to’s.

What are you talking about? I've been to 30 different cities and 4 countries. The food scene here is really good. Some amazing restaurants and food producers reside here. Johnson and Wales is a very highly regarded culinary school with many of their chefs staying and influencing the restaurants.

Below are some amazing Providence restaurants: Oberlin, Aguardente, Massimo, Slow Rhode, Chilangos, Los Andes, Slow Rhode, Nick's on Broadway, Broadway Bistro, Gracies, Aleppo Sweets, Jahunger, Bayberry, La Pinata, Rouge Island

We cultivate plenty of awesome local grocery items here too. Check out the new hope and main market.

Have you been to pizza Marvin, nice slice or Annas Vesuviano?

Even the food pop ups are next level here. Hanju kitchen, masa taqueria, trap box, etc

Sounds like you haven't explored Providence enough

I think so, yes. And there was also a Seekonk location.

You been to sura in Johnston?

My former ex-husband. He was from Indiana. We met at J&W

What I loved about nyc was being able to walk around all the time and enjoy the energy of the place. Providence has a more suburban feel, and although you can walk some places, depending on where in pvd you live, it’s not the same kind of thing.

Ur a gentrifier, you only seek to take from providence. Ppl like you are contributing to the economic inequality in the city, and have the nerve to complain. Move anywhere else and never return .
