Raw Bar anyone? Talk about a raw seafood platter! This patter has oysters, clams, shrimp and lobster 🦞 Of course I wish there was more lobster but it does have all my favorites on there 😉 For a fun time in Block Island check out Dead Eye Dicks in New Harbor!

Portside Tavern, Bristol RI.

Sesame Crushed Ahi Tuna- citrus-soy glaze, seaweed salad, sriracha aioli, pickled veggies, wasabi paste and wonton chips.

Not only is this dish beautiful, but it is also delicious 😃 The Ahi Tuna was nice and fresh and the aioli sauce gave the dish a little spice! The crispy wonton with the light tuna and aioli made this dish a little party in your mouth 😉

I love Portside Tavern they have delicious food, drinks, a great atmosphere and on Sundays love music!

Based on presentation and taste of this dish I would rate the Ahi Tuna a 8 out of 10.

Parkside Rotisserie and Bar, Providence RI.

Moules En Frites - PEI Mussels, Vidalia Onions, Cherry Tomatoes, Bacon Lardons, Smoked Tomato Butter, Matchstick Fries

Providence has so many amazing restaurants it really is hard to choose one to go to! Federal Hill has amazing Italian Restaurants, downtown has many delicious burger, Greek, Korean and Indian restaurants. You can find anything you want to eat in this small state!

Parkside has amazing food, whether it is seafood, steak or chicken you will have a delicious meal. The mussles at this restaurant are delicious. It was a little different to have the matchstick fries on them, but they were nice and crispy and gave the dish a nice crunch. The mussles are fresh and the cherry tomatoes and bacon added to the light taste of the mussles.

Based on presentation and taste of this appetizer I would rate this dish a 7 out of 10.

⭐️New Restaurant Alert⭐️

River & Rhodes, Bristol RI.

It is a new restaurant in Bristol that just opened on Aug 11th.

I experienced an amazing dinner there last night. We ordered the

FIG, GORGONZOLA, & PROSCIUTTO di PARMA FLATBREAD

DUCK CONFIT RAGU & PAPPADELLE PASTA

ANGUS BEEF BURGER with a Bacon Jam!

All of our food was amazing. The flatbread was delicious and cooked to perfection. The duck was decadent and melted in your mouth. The pasta that came with it was made locally and was perfect with the juices from the duck. The burger was cooked medium well and was nice and juicy. The fries were the best fries I have had in a long time.

The staff of the restaurant were amazing people, so nice and welcoming. Leaha, the owner, came over and talked to us for a long time and she really made the experience special.

I can’t wait to go back to @riversandrhodesri and try more on the menu! I am excited for the new dining experience in Bristol!

I would recommend this new restaurant to anyone coming to the East Bay 😊

Fieldstones Grille, Portsmouth RI.

Shrimp and Lobster scampi 🍤

I never get a bad meal at Fieldstones Grille 😊 The Shrimp and Lobster Scampi special was no exception. The amount of lobster they give you on the dish was maybe a 1 pound lobster, with two claws. The shrimp were a good size shrimp and they gave you a lot of them. The sauce the scampi came in was a delicious garlic sauce that was perfect for dipping the bread in, because who doesn’t love to do that 😉

Fieldstone Grille remains one of my favorite restaurants in the area and highly recommend going if you ever have a chance!

Based on presentation and taste of the shrimp and lobster scampi I would rate this dish a 9 out of 10.

Aunt Carrie’s, Narragansett RI.

It’s not a lobster roll, it’s lobster on Aunt Carrie’s Homemade Bread 🦞

It’s not that I don’t like Aunt Carrie’s it’s just that I prefer Iggy’s lobster rolls.

Aunt Carrie’s offers lobster in a way I have never had it, on homemade bread. I got the hot lobster sandwich served with butter! The lobster is very fresh and it tastes delicious. I like the option of it on homemade bread because I feel like there is less calories and you can taste the lobster and butter better. This is a delicious option if you don’t want to eat a whole roll. The lettuce under the lobster gives the sandwich a nice refreshing crunch.

Whether you like Iggy’s or Aunt Carrie’s both places have great food and a fun, relaxed atmosphere. They both are great places to head after the beach or after a beautiful day in Point Judith!

Based on presentation and taste the lobster sandwich I rate this dish a 8 out of 10.
