Food was very good, service was good for busy night with a lot of very big parties. Uncomfortably loud and towards the end of meal temperature was also uncomfortably warm. Will go back again. Thanks

I LOVE THE FOOD here- and the service is excellent- but the noise was a dealbreaker the 4 of us all well over 60 said we wouldn't go back because of the noise - deafening- we made the best of it- but definitely wouldn't go again- which is sad- because everything else is so damn great
Overall, I love this place. It's just a bit too noisy for my sensitive ears. Great menu, with excellent selections. My “French Tini” cocktail was wonderful! The only issue with the food was that, across the board, too much sauce on each dish! Excessive amounts of salad dressing, pesto sauce and even too much blue cheese. In this case, all was delicious, just over sauced. Less is sometimes better. If the quality of cooking and ingredients is there (which it definitely was), moderate quantities allow the flavors to shine. Ps, don't skip the excellent rolls and fresh butter that are brought to the table...skip the carbs some other time because Plum Point bakes THE best rolls!!!

Been going there for years and NEVER had a bad meal. Always cooked to perfection. In my top 3 in RIVegetarian options: Fluke is Vegetarian and if you ask they'll try accommodating you if it can be done.

Arrived on time for our reservation, hostesses said table ready n 5 minutes then waited 35 minutes to be seated. Food was great but the noise level was so high shouting was required for conversation. Clearly, there was no “front of the house” management present to resolve issues for people waiting.

It was a Friday evening and we were placed at a table not far from the very busy bar, so it was so loud we really couldn't hear each other talk. Maybe it would've been better on the other side of the room, but we paid more than $225 before tip and spent 1 1/2 hours saying "what?" to each other the whole time. Disappointing. The great foot redeems it somewhat. Next time we'll try a different time of day or something.

You multiple choice answers for the previous questions don't actually have an accurate selection to describe the noise level in Plum Point Bistro, 'energetic' I assume is the loudest... Well-- this place is well beyond that; can't have a conversation with your dining partner without shouting. Added to that is piped in music that on it's own is played at a level above "background"-- thus causing everyone to talk even louder. I know a number of folks in the area, who like me, love the food, but just refuse to go there singularly because it is so loud. Hardwood floors, glass and and tin ceiling are all so visually attractive-- and also don't offer any sound diffusion or absorption. Still a wonderful restaurant...

Everything was awesome! Can't remember our servers name but he was great. We had a party of 8 right at the peak rush hour and the food was out super quick! Server, hostesses, and runners/bussers were super attentive to whatever we needed. Would recommend to make a reservation. First time going here and we will definitely be coming back
As always the food was outstanding. Our server, Christina was attentive and knowledgeable. The only reason I can't give it an overall 5 stars is because it is incredibly loud.

Plum Point Bistro is one of my favorite restaurants - always busy and the ambient noise is a bit loud. That said - cool vibe, wait staff is awesome, and the food is superb. I'm a fan.

We had a fantastic meal here. The chef accommodated my request to make an appetizer an entree. The mussels in coconut curry was fabulous one of the best dishes I have ever eaten. Our server Jen was phenomenal! I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. Can't wait to go back

Delicious, always busy here even on a Tuesday night in February. I wish it was a little larger, but got a reservation so no problem. Summer can be tough to get in though . The twin pork chops are fantastic and all the pastas are too
Always love love this place! And yes, we love good food, and are never disappointed! It is our go to since we bought a house in Narragansett two years ago. They serve food late, which is important to us since we're not early diners ?. Everyone is always friendly, their employees, as well as, other clientele. We love the sense of community and comfort we feel here. Thank you for making us always feel welcome, special and serving us great food. And now that we're almost locals, we split our time between Connecticut & RI, we too dread busy season because we're afraid we'll never get into our favorite place ❤️. Overall great busy fun vibe with fantastic food (& drinks). Thank you!
