Yes, you can get the best baklava you've ever had here (the owner trained with "the Baklava master" of Aleppo, Syria as a child), but they have so much more, from stuffed dates to shawarma to falafel. Don't visit without trying one of their teas. Voted one of Bon Appetit's best new restaurants in 2019!

New Haven-style-inspired pizzas and classic, crispy thick-crust cheese and pepperoni, plus locally harvested raw bar, clam and seafood appetizers. Pizza Marvin’s interior design pays tribute to ’80s and ’90s nostalgia, with gingham-printed table tops and retro quahog and Rhode Island Red chicken art on the walls. Even the gumball machine is stocked with colorful gumballs printed with the Pizza Marvin logo.

Oberlin is one of the best examples of Providence's fantastic dining scene—expect a wide range of excellent lesser-known, sustainably caught local fish like tautog, butterfish and bluefish, as well as a wide range of other regionally-inspired dishes like fresh pasta, homemade sourdough, and roasted local veg. The place has a real neighborhood vibe that makes you want to stay for hours, which is definitely helped by the exceptional wine list and desserts (specifically: the Basque cheesecake).

A new ramen joint with exceptional homemade broth and thin Hong-Kong style noodles and a small but exciting set of Japanese cocktails. Dessert is one of the main stars, made by former Big King pastry chef Millie, who specializes in eclectic ice cream flavors. Come during the day and you can sometimes buy a single scope from the front window!

Best coffee in Providence, hands down.
