Restaurants near Roger Williams Park Zoo

I have been to Hemenway's in the past and this restaurant never ceases to be top notch. The Service (shoutout to Mia!) was fantastic and the food and atmosphere outstanding. I highly recommend Hemenway's. We were celebrating an anniversary and it was pretty cool that our table was sprinkled with rose petals and we were greeted numerous times with a hearty "Happy Anniversary! by a number of the wait staff and greeters(?). Absolutely one of my favorite restaurants anywhere!

This is a family favorite. Food is terrific and the atmosphere caters to unique needs (walkers, hearing impairment) with a smile and sensitivity. Always a great meal and experience

We went for an anniversary and Massimo does it right! They had special table set and was a great touch! The food and service was excellent, as expected! Unfortunately, it was quite noisy at 6:00 pm and difficult to hear my wife and waitress. Otherwise, another great experience.

We came on a Sunday night on the earlier side. It got busier toward the end of our reservation. We had great service overall and the food was delicious. We ordered the charcuterie board and deviled eggs for an appetizer; she got the filet mignon medium rare and side of asparagus; and I ordered the wagyu burger medium rare, which came with truffle fries. Deviled eggs were amazing; charcuterie was decent (but we are comparing to other amazing ones from our journey). Both dinners cooked to absolute perfection just as we ordered it. Steak quality was great and was similar to a top notch steakhouse. Burger was outstanding and melted in my mouth. Truffle fries did not have a truffle taste. But they were definitely good otherwise. We typically do not go back to restaurants, as we are trying to go to different spots. However, we confirmed before the check came that we would break that rule to try some of the other items on the menu. All in all great experience!

Excellent food, top quality service. Cool atmosphere. Overall excellent. Lots of great places on Federal Hill, and Costantinos Venda is right up there with the best ones.
