About the restaurant

Residing inside the historic Agassiz Mansion at Castle Hill Inn, Aurelia is the next evolution in Castle Hill’s culinary journey – one that has been lauded as one of the best dining experiences in New England. Nestled on forty magical acres, the property has been the backdrop of memorable occasions for more than a century.

The Forbes and Relais & Chateaux restaurant, known in its original incarnation as The Dining Room at Castle Hill, offers a six-course prix fixe menu with imaginative dishes utilizing the local bounty of produce, seafood, and artisanal producers.

Aurelia’s dining rooms overlook Narragansett Bay in all its raw beauty. As the bay’s seascape and surrounding landscape change subtly with the seasons, so does Aurelia’s menu, culminating in a truly memorable experience.

We had a special dining experience with a guest chef from Manoir Hovey in Quebec. It was a delight. Both the Ocean House chef and the Manoir Hovey chef interacted with dinner guests throughout the evening. Food, presentation, wine pairings were all sublime. A great evening from start to finish.

Everything was fantastic! Food and service was outstanding! Waitress was very attentive! The kicker was the end, one of the employees wanted to go home and it was cold out, in order for him to go home he had to make sure all the outdoor seating was open again before he left, so he opened all the outdoor seating and we sat and froze until we were finished. We were not the only ones seated there either!! That should definitely not be done until everyone is gone from that area of the restaurant.

About the restaurant

A favorite of Julia Child - Pot au Feu Bistro is so much more than a restaurant... Established in 1972, our cozy Bistro is the oldest French Bistro in America. Pot au Feu Bistro kicked off the Providence Restaurant Renaissance being the first to offer something other than “steak, spaghetti and chow mien”.
Located in the Historic Downtown we are just minutes from all the hotels and convention center.

We went for the first time last night after years of hearing how great it is. It did not disappoint! Service is fantastic and the food is outstanding! We enjoyed the Escargot, foi gras, mushroom pate, beef Bourignon, pot du chocolate and creme brûlée. It’s the best French food outside of France. The ambiance feels like you stepped into an old building in Paris.

The setting was absolutely beautiful. Right on the water we sat outside, enjoying the warm breeze. The quality of the food from the cruel to the octopus with excellent. The service was marginal as the staff didn’t seem very interested or engaged. Would still recommend and come back for another try

There are few restaurants that you can say that over time they absolutely have been able to maintain the quality of the food and the quality of the service. Mill Tavern is that place. The food is outstanding; the wine list is outstanding; the service is outstanding. There are not a lot of restaurants that can say that.
