Breakfast, with attention given to the breakfast staff, as I would an ER morning staff on a weekend from their family.
I’ve become sensitized to the sacrifices people make to serve people, especially in the morning when no one pleasures a special meal cooked at home. Think of it, someone with joy preparing a meal at 7am, without the hormonal impetus of a tray of cuisine. Drink, fruit, eggs, toast, and fats to pleasure a morning after the Best. Love you all!

There isnt enough good things I could say about this restaurant. I brought my friend here, who flew in from Nebraska to visit me after 20 years for the weekend and her birthday! I did mention in the reservation it was her birthday and there was a nice card at the table! The waitress Takyia(sp) was AMAZING. She noticed her steak wasnt well enough for her and mentioned she could take it to be cooked a little more. She also brought out espresso martinis at the end of our meals and my friends had a candle in it!! Wow, just A++++ service. I am local so I will most certainly be back. Everything we got was finger licking good! Worth every penny and then some.

We had a birthday dinner at Waterman Grille last weekend and it was fantastic! Paul, the Manager, and Josh, our server added such delightful touches that made the evening extra-special. The food and drinks (even my "mocktail"!) were delicious. The portions are generous, as well. Having recently moved back to the Providence area, Waterman Grille is a new favorite and we can't wait to go back.

We got really lucky going restaurant week and not having a reservation. We were seated right away at 6:30 on a Friday! Food was delicious. I wanted to try something new, I have never ordered a pork chop out before. I'm so glad I did, it was so good! My husband ordered the salmon and loved it as well. We also had the cheese plate app and fried calamari, it was so fresh, crispy and not greasy at all. Drinks were also on point. My only negative was (and this is my fault for not moving tables when we had the chance) we were seated right under the ac vent. And every so often it would drip on me, so that was annoying.

Waterman Grille was one of the highlights of our trip. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was warm, relaxed, and beautiful, especially along the river. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and every recommendation was spot on.
We ordered a variety of dishes to share, and every single one was exceptional. The tuna was incredibly fresh and perfectly seared, the crab cakes were packed with flavor and almost all crab, and the fried calamari was light, crispy, and not greasy at all. Even the deviled eggs were elevated with unique flavors that made them memorable.
We ended the meal with dessert, and it was the perfect finish—beautifully presented and absolutely delicious. It’s clear that the kitchen pays attention to every detail, from presentation to flavor.
If you’re looking for a restaurant that consistently delivers outstanding food, great service, and a beautiful waterfront setting, Waterman Grille is a must-visit. We can’t wait to come back.
