    We celebrated our son’s wedding at Providence and it was phenomenal. They recently renovated the restaurant and it is beautiful. We were seated in a separate room which was so thoughtful. The food was fabulous, amazing cocktails and super friendly and efficient staff. Amazing experience!

    The food was great and exactly what I expected as my wife and I had been there once before. The wait staff was better than great. We never waited for anything and, at the same time, were never rushed. Anytime I wanted something, staff was right there and at other times they were not in my way. My water glass was always full. Great restaurant. I have eaten at Michelin two and three star restaurants all over Europe. The problem with this restaurant is that it is only two stars. It was great.

    Amazing experience! The Ambiance, the service, and the food made this a memorable dining experience. There was no dish served that wasn't deliciously unique. The 8 course meal (not including the amuse - bouche) was all timed perfectly. We never waited long for our next dish, nor did they come out too soon. We had time to savor and enjoy what we had in front of us. Many of the fresh ingredients come from the restaurant's roof top garden. The servers were well educated on the dishes they introduced and very friendly. The rapport was fun and engaging. They went out of their way to make my husband feel special on his birthday and even printed out his very own menu with a birthday salutation on it, that we got to take home as a keepsake. I would highly recommend this place.

    I've been to Providence a total of 4 times. I think this might have been my first time there since it earned its stars. I've always loved Providence, but my most recent experience was exceptional. The food, the service, the beverages, all outstanding. The pampering you get from the staff really does make you feel special. All were very knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating. Our server noticed that I ate the amuse bouche from my girlfriend's plate and asked if she didn't eat beef. She said she did not and two minutes later he brought her a tomato based version, which she thought was absolutely delicious. It's the attention to detail (in all regards) that makes this dining experience well worth the hefty price.
