Offering a setting that is unlike any other in Providence, Waterman Grille is situated along the Seekonk River in a former bridge gatehouse that dates back to 1871. Serving dinner nightly, and brunch on weekends. Offering weddings and celebrations in an intimate, waterfront location.
Order the pork chop! It's seasoned to perfection, and the greens/pasta are a perfect compliment. If I lived here, it would definitely be a weekly visit type of place. Also the atmosphere outside was so picturesque and serene. Perfect for date night, or catching up with old friends.

Had a wonderful meal tonight at Waterman Grill. We sat at the bar and Jocelyn was our waitress and did a great job. The food was delicious. We had a hamburger, black cod, crabcakes, Korean chicken wings, and escarole Caesar salad. Everything was fantastic.

We are regulars and always have wonderful service and great food and drinks! We sat on the porch looking out over the river for the first time and loved it. Our food came out underdone (my salmon) and overdone (his burger), but there was no problem having them recooked, and our waitress made sure we had fries to munch on while we waited. This has never happened before and was probably just a fluke. Everything else about our meal was perfect! Abigail was an excellent server.

Lovely dinner tonight at the Waterman Grille —it was the perfect night to sit upstairs in the coziness of the loft area by the fire. ( Who would have thought that the fire would be needed in May🙄). It was such an excellent backdrop to the scrumptious food that we ordered. We had potato leek soup-which was heaven in a soup bowl. Then their grilled pork chop with spatzel-so moist and tender and the spatzel a wonderful complement to the dish.

We had an amazing experience at Waterman Grille from start to finish. The food was outstanding—everything was full of flavor, beautifully presented, and clearly made with attention to detail. The ambience really set the tone, with a warm, romantic atmosphere that made the whole night feel special without being over the top. The service was just as impressive—attentive, friendly, and perfectly timed throughout the evening.
What made it even more meaningful is that this was our first dinner as an engaged couple, and it truly couldn’t have been a better place to celebrate such a big moment. The entire experience felt memorable and effortless, and it’s definitely somewhere we’ll always look back on and plan to return to in the future.
