Diner Reviews
  • "My brother and I took our mother to Siena for her birthday. The service was a bit slow, but that is my only complaint! The employees are incredibly nice, and definitely read the special instructions on my reservation. They brought out the correct desserts at the end, and even wrote 'Happy Birthday!' for my mother in chocolate sauce on one of the plates. The drinks were very good, and the food was outstanding. Definitely try this place out -- just give yourself enough time to enjoy it!"

  • "Visited Siena for the second time in two weeks and brought my parents along for their first visit. As we have come to expect, the food and service were outstanding. The salmon special over risotto was a favorite as well as the filet. My mom declared it her new favorite place. We arrived earlier than our reservation time but were seated within two minutes. Overall just another great night out at what is becoming one of our favorite restaurants."

  • "We were a party of 6, and were a lively group. We dine out frequently at nice places, and this was the worst service we had in a long time at any restaurant. The waitress was rude, disinterested, and made no effort to be friendly, except at the very end when she brought us the bill. In fact, she was so rude, that when she asked us if we wanted dessert, several of us said, "No thank you," but one member of our group started to order by saying, "I think...", and the waitress literally walked away. We are all still dumbfounded at how rude and short she was with us...a group that dropped over $500 on the bill. Food was excellent though...too bad they don't have the service to back it up."

  • "There is now no need to go to Providence to have a fine dining experience. The menu is not huge, but very well rounded and has many choices for every taste. The bartender knows how to make a fine martini. They are clearly driven to succeed and the charming owner, Chris, was working as hard as anyone managing the very busy and focused employees. He visited table after table to check on patrons. Jean is an outstanding server and we always ask to sit at one of her tables. We are so happy to have a place like this in Smithfield. They should have made it twice the size!"

  • "I had to make a reservation a month in advance in order to get the date and time I wanted, to take my husband out for his birthday. In spite of arriving in time for our reservation, we waited 29 minutes to be seated (one more minute and we would have left.) I let the hostess know how unhappy I was. Our waitress could not have been nicer. She was very knowledgeable in explaining the "specials" and made it a point to speak loudly enough so that we could hear her over the noise level. The food was okay, but not as good as I had been led to believe based on reviews I had read. Dessert was comped by the manager because of the seating issue. I don't think we will make another visit, based on this experience. It was disappointing."

  • "I watched for months as the former drugstore was transformed into a restaurant. I often wondered if they really needed to go to so much trouble. Well, the result was not just a restaurant but a true eating experience. I feasted one of the tasting boards of cured meats, cheeses, olives, candied walnuts, fig jam and some crostini. The calamari with a balsamic finish and hot peppers was a nice blend of hot and sweet. I did fit in a main course of gnocchi and I did save room for dessert of banana cheesecake which you know has to be good when you have a Pastry Chef. I will need to make quite a few return visits to eat my way through the whole menu. Then, I will start all over again. I'm glad you picked my neighborhood. Welcome!"

  • "While reservations must be made a good week in advance, the website reservation option was easy and quick. The table was ready when our party arrived and service was prompt and friendly. The bartender was stumped with the order of a classic cocktail and it did require an iPhone search on our part to locate the recipe but the bartender gladly made the cocktail and this is just evidence of inexperience which was compensated for by enthusiasm. Our party of four had a very pleasant evening with good food and nice ambiance."

  • "This 3rd Siena is as great as the other two Siena restaurants. This one is closer to home than the other two, though. We shall return."

  • "From the moment we met the hostess who brought us to our table (in full view of the fireplace), to the waiter and the food, everything was excellent. The ladies had the arugula salad special with goat cheese and blood oranges....beautiful presentation and just delicious. The four entrees were just as good especially the shrimp over risotto which I had. Just another great night that we have almost come to expect from one of our favorite restaurants. We have become partial to the Smithfield location and we were not disappointed."

  • "We have been to this great location 5 times. The food is the exact same perfection each time. I have had the same main meal each if my 5 times with diff apps and accompaniments and the mansa de Giuseppe steak and each time it has been cooked and served exactly the same as the previous times. 5 stars for consistently reproducing the same quality time after time. The eggplant side fish was melt in your mouth good. My date had the short ribs and risotto and it was melt in your mouth good. The cheese, olive, meat board Lucca was perfect with the addition if the Bufala Mozzerella special. Our waiter Matthew M. Was great, he was very attentive, though it was super busy for him with a needy table behind us. Thank you Sienna and Matt"

  • "LOVED the cheese board and wine. The filet special my husband ordered was delicious. I also ordered the special, salmon with lobster sauce. It was good but not etched- in- my- mind- forever good. We'll go back. I'm looking forward to trying a different cheeseboard and maybe the calamari or pizza. The cocktails looked good but we had to go with wine to compliment the food. I'll also ask for a booth next time, next to the fireplace!!"

  • "If you want great food at reasonable prices, this is a MUST visit. I absolutely love the tasting boards with fine selection of meats, olives, and cheeses. It sure adds a nice alternative to typical appetizers. I have made the rounds at Federal Hill, and I found this place better than most and much more economical."

  • "We had our first meal at Siena - a group of seven childhood friends - we were impressed by the relaxed ambience. We definitely dined not just ate. Our waiter graciously granted our request for separate checks. I was VERY disappointed, however, with the size of the portions compared to the cost. I understand obesity is related to overeating, however, all of our portions - the salmon oscar special & the swordfish were surprisingly small portions for the price. The only item that looked normally sized was the pork chop. The chocolate mousse cake was delicious! Mr. Tarro - one of the owners & the manager of the front of house - worked non-stop to ensure all guests were settled comfortably."

  • "Outstanding time, ask for Heather she was a strong server. Cheese/Olive/Meat plate for app was awesome. Nice touch not yet available at Prov or EG. Entrees delicious and reasonable <$30. Ambiance was far more relaxed and less touristy than the fed hill location. Can't wait to go back."

  • "their 2 phone calls reminding us if we were 15 min late our reservation would be given away and reminder about amount of time at the table it was like ok get here on time and leave as soon as you are done. we felt rushed they are trying to turn the tablse I understand but you cannot be that rude about it. I specifically in my comments stated, may be there closer to 6 than 5:30 which they immediately responded to but that fact, but I also I requested not to sit in the middle of the restaurant, well guess where we were seated in the middle facing the door and entrance."

  • "Enjoyed dinner Friday evening at the Siena in Smithfield, RI. Upon arrival we were seated immediately. Table for 6 was in the room to the back of the restaurant and was perfect for our group. Quiet enough for casual conversation without having to raise your voice. Service by our waiter Jeff was professional and attentive. The food arrived hot and was flavorful. This was our second time at the Smithfield location and it won't be our last."

  • "Service has never been great when we go. The first time the server neglected to tell us the specials. The last time my drink was empty for 15 minutes, and I was never asked if I needed another drink. The server also never came to see how our meal was. Food is fantastic. Atmosphere is nice. It tends to be pretty loud inside, music is loud, so people start talking over it. We love the food here, but the service is no where close to par."

  • "Sienna -Smithfield is the 3rd location in RI for Sienna, and, it is a hit. We were pleasantly greeted; thru my open table reservation I requested a round table for our party and that is what we had; I have made this same request in the past, and my request was granted. food very well prepared and presented; wait staff, Fallon,very knowledgeable RE menu and specials being offered that night along with wine highlight of the day and the wine list. The noise level can be a bit high since the restaurant is always busy; it is too bad when restaurants are designed/built/renovated that "noise level" is not well taken care of. Sometimes it is hard to block out the background noise when you are trying to communicate at your table w/your party."

  • "We were the first people in and were sat at a very small table in the center of the restaurant. There was a large table next to us and all of the booths were open so it was kind of an odd decision by the manager. The service was great and the waitress was very helpful and friendly until it got busy. It felt like she had way too many tables and we ended up waiting quite a while for our plates to be cleared."

  • "I have been to Siena several times and have always enjoyed it: this time, though, I was very disappoined. I was with 2 others and we each ordered the Bietola salad and the Clams Zuppa to share. The lemon juice to olive oil ratio on the salads was off, rendering them very sour- they also lacked seasoning and were very bland. While the clams in the zuppa were very good, the sauce itself was extremely bland and lacked seasoning. Our main courses consisted of the Frutti di Mare, the Manzo di Giuseppe, and the Brasto. All of the dishes lacked flavor but fortunately for me, I was able to add salt to my steak. We also ordered a side of Patatine Fritte which was served at the very end of our meal because our waitperson forgot to place the order."
