Amazing fresh seafood in a beautiful little Bayside restaurant. Excellent service tooParking: Decent amount of space in an unpaved parking lot, but be aware of some serious potholes near the entrance, may damage low clearance vehicles

Ordered steak medium-rare, it came out well done. It took a long time for a new one to come out, and it came without sauce and the rest of the dish, as I had already eaten it while waiting. Other food was fine and the server was friendly. I understand things happen, but I was surprised that I was still charged full price for the very disappointing steak and eggs.

From starters to seasonal desserts, every bite was heavenly. And our server, Lauren, was a delight!

I’ve been twice now and had great experiences both times! Went with my wife for Valentines Day, and another time with family. The food was excellent both times, service was great, and will definitely come again!

Tonight my husband and I went to the neighboring restaurant, Chomp. There was a gentleman in the deck of the Trafford who appeared to be shouting at me while I was parking. He was waving his arms in the air and yelling to not park in a specific area. Well, all I have to say is by the time my husband and I left Chomp (a little after 6 PM) the Trafford had maybe 5 cars in front of it while Chomps side was full and almost every table was taken.All I have to say is, if you’re going to be that picky about where patrons of other places park, maybe don’t embarrass yourself by telling them to move only to show that you don’t really have many customers to begin with.The staff at Chomp apologized on that gentleman’s behalf, I told them not to worry because it only made it clear that I’ll never have any interest in going to Trafford’s if that’s how he treats people. Not a mystery as to why you had no one on “your” side of the communal lot.As a side note, maybe worry about fixing your potholes before worrying about telling people where to park.

We were excited to try this restaurant but we're ultimately dissappointed. The seafood didn't seem fresh and the cost was much higher than your typical seafood restaurant. We also ran into a particularly rude employee yelling at us about where we parked. It really was a weird experience.

Quite simply, this was an exceptional and outrageously delicious experience. My friend and I ordered cocktails, which were amazing, a Brussels sprouts appetizer, which were, without question, the best Brussels sprouts I have ever had, and two seafood dishes for the main meal. My friend had the baked stuffed sole, and I had the scallops. They were superb. You know how when you taste someone else's meal and you end up thinking that you chose better or that the other person chose better? This time both were so incredible that I cannot wait to go back, repeat my meal, and then systematically order all the others! I had never been to Trafford Restaurant before, but now it will become a go-to for me. Cole, the chef, is so talented, and the woman who waited on us had the perfect blend of professionalism, comfort, and positive energy. I am so happy to have another dining option that supplements and even elevates the options we have close by on Aquidneck Island. Well done!

The staff at Trafford were top-notch, providing helpful, accurate, attentive, and friendly service.When it came to the food, we ordered the Sunny Side Burger, which is a solid 3/5. We were pleased with how the meat was cooked. We also ordered the Trafford Burger, which was rated 3/5.We tried the Buttermilk Chicken Tenders as an appetizer, and they were amazing. The buffalo sauce added an extra kick of flavor to the already tasty chicken tenders — rating 4/5. However, we were a bit disappointed with the quantity of the tenders.Overall, our experience at Trafford Restaurant was positive. However we did a review on Instagram and the owner got back to us, he was very rude and disrespectful. He couldn’t accept our feedback — it was a personal experience and we rather be honest instead of giving a 5 star.That being said regardless of the owner’s rudeness we would recommend this restaurant to others.

First visit.Very pleasant atmosphere. The waitress was hepful,friendly,and very efficient. We started with the crab cakes which were one of the best that I've ever tasted. We both ordered the braised beef bolognase and the presentation by the owner,the balsamic drizzle on the beef and pasta just made it taste over the top.It was slightly sweet and so delicious.This is a restaurant worth visiting for sure.They also take reservations.I would prefer to give them a ten star rating.We will definitely go back to try some of their other offerings.
