Reviews
I’m not a fan of a crudo used as anything other than an amuse bouche, as it requires the least amount of technique or effort to make. Consequently, I was underwhelmed in the first course, by yet another beautifully cut, yet under-seasoned, cut of fish served atop some boring acidic base with pretty garnishes. It’s as predictable and boring as parsley garnishes were in the 1980’s.
In another course, the pillowy hand-made gnocchi were executed beautifully, however, they were hard to enjoy after the acerbic, hickory-smoked bacon garnish kicked in nd left a final bitter note to each bite. I personally prefer a fruit wood for smoked pork products, but to each their own.
There was far too much micro kale, and too many micro greens on the fish dish, which also lacked salt.
The fourth course, the wagyu dish, was perfection on a plate, expertly seared with classic mushroom and red wine flavors.
Sadly, the dessert was as uninspired as the crudo, I was served an anemic, rubbery pana cotta topped with a tasteless passion fruit gelee combo, it lacked texture, flavor and inspiration.
A note on the cocktails – The beverages were 100% knockouts. I appreciated the perfectly chilled yet appropriately briny ‘dirty’ martini with blue-cheese stuffed olives and the rich espresso notes in the Carajillo.
A few rough spots but this place is on the right track!
Inside is elegant and quaint. It did get a tad loud by the end of our dinner, but nothing crazy.
The food was incredible. What a fabulous 7 course tasting menu! From fish to gnocchi to foie gras to cheese, everything was truly special.
Service was top notch. shout out to Nicole, our waitress, who did in amazing job explaining all the wines and varietals of the wine pairing. And Elijah also did great, and it was his first day!
Gracie’s is absolutely worth the visit. My brother and SIL have been here before so I already knew dinner was going to be exceptional. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere felt warm and welcoming. The host and our server were genuinely pleasant, attentive.
The food was excellent across the board.
– Tuna crudo was fresh and well balanced 8.5/10
– Russet potato gnocchi was so comforting and flavorful 9.5/10
– Point Judith sea scallops 9/10
– The wagyu steak was good but not my favorite dish of the evening 7.5/10
– S’mores mousse was an amazing dessert to end the evening 10/10
To top it off, the espresso martini was made exactly how I like it, strong with just the right amount of creaminess.
Overall, Gracie’s delivers an elevated dining experience with excellent service and memorable dishes. I would definitely come back again!
The food is amazing but the gnocchi was definitely my favorite. A really stand out dish that I highly recommend trying when you’re here. I don’t even typically like gnocchi or mushrooms like that but I kept going back for more.
Beautiful atmosphere and plenty of staff so you’re never ignored, even when it is busy before a PPAC show (or Trinity repertoire ; which is directly across the street and can be seen from the windows)
I just love when a place really puts a good amount of detail in their plates and makes their staff happy enough that they stay working here for a long time.
Definitely worth a trip, even though it is pricey – you will leave full and happy
When we arrived, an incredibly polite valet named Andrew spoke with us and took the car off our hands.
We walked inside, and our hostess, Ash, immediately took us to a beautiful and secluded table that had its own wooden benches and walls separating us from the general dining room.
On the table were adorable little stars in the form of glitter, a gorgeous flower in a vase, and a very sweet card wishing us a happy anniversary. Sarah was our waitress and paid attention to every detail of our meal. She checked multiple times on our allergies, worked with the kitchen to customize the tasting menu, and was entirely on top of the service.
To cap off the night, Ash organized us to have a complimentary Creme Brulee which is my all time favorite dessert. Even with that caveat, this was easily among the best creme brulees I’ve ever had. It was chock-full of fresh vanilla beans straight from the pod and had a delicate but crunchy surface. The entire team made the night so special and we enjoyed every single moment. Neither my partner nor I could stop gushing for the rest of the night about our experience.
I highly recommend Gracie’s for anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion in Providence.
The coat check was unattended, with guests freely going in and grabbing their belongings. It felt careless and disorganized.
Our waitress was excellent—truly the only positive part of the night. She was attentive, accommodating, and clearly doing everything she could to make up for the rest of the experience. (SHE DESERVES THE 5 Star Rating)
Although the dining room wasn’t cramped and the music wasn’t loud, it was still difficult to hear servers describe each course. This was a service execution issue, not an environment problem.
Dinner dragged on until almost 11:30 PM. For a 7-course tasting menu, the portions were underwhelming and we left still hungry and exhausted.
Bussers and servers repeatedly hovered and cleared or dropped plates without saying anything, which felt awkward and unpolished rather than attentive.
Overall, I’m not sure the experience matched the expectations set for a special occasion dinner.
