This is my go to liquor store for sure.”

“This is one of my favorite restaurants in RI. I love a good Neapolitan pizza and they do it so well. It’s great for dining in takeout. The service is always excellent, and they have some really great dessert options. My go to is always the Margherita pizza With prosciutto and a big slice of the birthday cake. The Parmesan truffle fries are excellent and they have really high-quality wings. I love that they change their specials weekly and usually theme them including their cocktails. They have some of the best cocktails around. They are one of the few places that has lavender drinks and edible glitter, and it’s just my absolute favorite all around. Five stars, highly recommended.”

“super fresh, fast and hot (temp) for pick up order. they say 20 minutes and are very timely! delicious food in which whatever is ordered, one bite compliments the next. Hyderabadi Chicken Curry and the Garlic Naan are my go-to, and it's always perfect here. ..NEVER disappoints! As-is, the spicyness is great and nice curry flavor. ill be getting it spicier next time, however. The potato/pea samosas with mint chutney and sweet molé-like dipping sauce is exquisite, I might add! I'm looking forward to trying new items in my next order!”

“This is probably the best place I have ever eaten. The food is magical and makes you wanting more. Ive been telling everyone about this place. The menu is diverse with something for everyone. This has been my new restaurant to take people to impress them. I’ve brought my whole family here. They were extremely impressed and they are a tough crowd to please….trust me. I’ve also had my whole office go out here one night and they were blown away. My friends from out of town told me that next time they come this is the first place we are going. That’s how blown away they were by the food. I can keep going on about how great this place is. Basically if you have not tried it yet run. This is by far the best new restaurant in Providence”

“First time going to this subway. Had to go to this subway because it is was the only one that honored their company coupons all of the other franchisees are cheap and won't take company coupons and if they do they shorten the menue to select items. The staff was great here and the sandwiches were excellent. Will go back as long as they accept my coupons.”

“Green Wok has been my happy place for over 2 years now! Their teriyaki beef strips are a party in my mouth - the beef is tender and juicy, and the teriyaki glaze is bursting with flavor. I pair it with their vegetable fried rice, which is always soft, fluffy and delicious! The service is friendly and always makes me feel like a valued customer. If you're looking for amazing vegan food that tastes fresh and is made with quality ingredients, then Green Wok is a must-try!”

“My family and I have been ordering food from this establishment for years! The staff is great, delivery drivers polite and food delivered HOT!!! I think the prices are good and have not increased as much as other places. Very clean inside, and always receive a friendly greeting when you arrive for pick up or dine in. I am a vegetarian, and there are several options available. Also, they will work with you to have your order created to your needs(to the best of their ability). Can't say enough about this restaurant!!!!
Vegetarian options: Vegetarian grinders, pizza, veggie calzones, spinach pie, eggplant parm sandwich and dinner. Salads, several kinds.
Parking: This location does do a lot of business. The parking lot is a good size, some businesses close at night so there may be more parking then. At peak times as in any restaurant, you might need to park a little father away. Still close though, we have never had an issue with this in years!
Kid-friendliness: I have seen many children in the restaurant over the years. I think they are wonderful dealing with the children. Please be respectful as they are a restaurant not a daycare.
Wheelchair accessibility: Handicapped parking in front, easy access to building and enough room for a walker wheel chair et. I don't know about the bathrooms for handicap, never used them. Call and ask, they would be happy to inform you of any needs you my have and if they can help.”

“My friend, Scott, took me to Haruki last night for dinner, knowing that I’m OBSESSED with sushi, the same way he is. He insisted that it would be worth the drive from Rochester, MA (my location) to Cranston, raving, “It’s the BEST!” and promising me that I won’t be disappointed. I’ll tell you this… he was not wrong!! From the sushi, to the service… A++++ Their entire staff is full of joyous energy and are super on top of everything. It’s so refreshing to see a place of business full of an entire group of people all working so wonderfully together. Getting their ish done like champs all while laughing, smiling, helping, but most importantly, they are all HAPPY. That happiness is infectious. Looking around the restaurant, all you could see was a place full of love, though and through. Our waiter, Tony, was SUCH a sweetheart. Though it was a busy night, he made time to chat with us throughout service. He knows Scott since he’s been a long-time customer. At the end of dinner, Tony truly showed his appreciation to Scotty for being a valued customer for so long by treating us to one of their most delicious bottles of saké, on the house. It was so smooth and delicious. Between the sushi being absolutely phenomenal… I’m talking OUT OF THIS WORLD (and I’m a sushi snob and a half), the rocking staff, the pleasant atmosphere and the fantastic prices, you really can’t beat this gem of a place. It is most definitely a new favorite!”

Finally, the coffee was brought out! Yes, you guessed it—COLD AND OLD!! We never got dessert. Told waitress my husband didn’t feel well and I asked her if we could get a couple of pastries to go, she refused! Paid $40 X 2!! An awful lot of money for high priced garbage and service that took well over 3 hours to complete!!”
