The service staff was very polite, friendly and talkative. The food was great. The kids wanted Mac and cheese and it was really delicious. They ate it all up and it wasn't blue box! Appetizer was excellent. I myself had the ranchero burger medium rare(which they cooked perfectly). The atmosphere was dim, cozy and not to loud like most restaurants. Will definitely be coming back to try other offerings. Oh yeah! Try the New Old Fashioned cocktail.

Such a great place.. The food is always fantastic, service impeccable. Great music always playing and the ambiance is perfect.

I had never been before but I have been told this place has been around for a long time. We tried it because we were participating in a pizza challenge. There is ample parking and plenty of seats so you won't have trouble with either. We grabbed seats at the bar because we are casual folk and prefer it. They had a decent craft beer menu and my hubs enjoyed his ipa. We got some potato skins to start because ... potato skins. They are life. These were very tasty. Loaded with bacon. . We have been told this place is more known for comfort food and dishes so it was really great to get to try the pizza. It was thin with lots of cheese and garlic. The pizza sauce was tangy. Our server took great care of us. It was a great experience and I'm glad we got to try it. We will be back for sure.

Came here for #rifoodfights #bestpizza. Pizza was good. Flatbread crust. Service was decent for not being busy. Place is good, reason it has been here for long time.

Yet another stop on a Sunday excursion for the RI FoodFights 'Lord of the Pies', hell I didn't know this place existed and my first thought upon walking in was 'that's the biggest bar I've ever seen in RI' and the bartender confirmed for us it seats 37. It was pretty quiet when we walked in late Sunday afternoon and I don't think it got all that much busier. Needless to say their pizza was pretty good even though it was my 3rd stop for the day. Larger, oversized but thin slices pepperoni and the sauce had a nice kick to it. Thinner pizza but with a nice char to it and an edible and tempting crust too and I was pleased with it.

I haven't been here in YEARS and probably came for a party or something back then. Anyway, we returned to use our Food Fights deal and nosh on some burgers. We started with calamari and a spicy stuffie. Both were good although I'm still in search of *really* good calamari that I haven't found yet. I had the Ranchero Burger which was a high noon showdown of flavors on a pillowy bun. The ranchero sauce was a spicy, tangy marvel that tied the whole burger together with just the right amount of kick. The jalapeño peppers bring a little fiery burst of flavor that'll make you sit up and take notice. They're spicy enough to keep things interesting without overpowering the burger, striking a perfect balance between heat and flavor. I may not return for several more years so I hope the Cowesett Inn is still around when I do.

I'm going to go five star because I think the negative reviews need to be balanced out. In terms of first impressions, it did sort of remind me of Gregg's with better lighting - some historical touches, fireplaces, a lot of wood paneling, very 70s vibe. The menu had pretty much anything you could want, from burgers to pizza to chicken parm to "heart healthy" options to steak. Usually when I see a menu that extensive, the quality of the food is...well, chain quality. Fine but eh. In my experience, however, everything we had was incredibly delicious and homemade. Some highlights: Tiramisu martini - one of 10 martini options, this was is truly desert in a glass. Made with rumchata. Absolutely loved it, and it's a hefty portion. Pierogi - these are made from scratch by Polish women who visit the restaurant a few times a week. They are hand pressed, totally made with love. Hands down the best pierogi I've ever had. Sausage ravioli - I think my hopes were pretty average for how it would taste, and I was surprised. It was REALLY good, as good as any place on federal hill. My friend ordered the ribeye and she said it was perfectly cooked. The sides they offer were very generously portioned. Dessert - I've never had grapenut pudding before, and I was told it's a RI right of passage, so we ordered it. It was okay...I don't really have a reference point. But the cheesecake! One of the best cheesecakes I've had in a while. It came with strawberry topping and honestly, it would have been better without. So velvety and decadent. Also, if you're looking for a space to host a part of 10-20, there's not a lot of good options in my opinion. This place can totally accommodate larger parties. Our server did an amazing job, too. Personable and helpful with great suggestions. I'd recommend it!

I went in and sat at the bar for a treat myself dinner. I wanted to have leftovers but the food was so good I couldn't stop eating. I got the steak a La mama - and the steak was excellent - but the best part was the spinach. I devoured it. Katie - my server - was a great bartender. She got my drinks so fast and with such a fun vibe and attitude; she made some mixed up drink on the spot and it was so tastyyyy. I honestly ran in while I waited for my son to get out of a movie and didn't know if I'd be rushed - but they were so quick I had so much time. I am looking forward to the leftover bit of steak I still have. Definitely will go again - and hope I can catch Katie again! I like that she seemed to know her regulars well - makes you want to be one!
