Five Restaurants To Try In Your Area!

The kitchens in the 903 Providence Place Apartments are immaculate - spacious, granite counters, modern appliances. But sometimes, it’s nice to sit down to a meal you would never consider making yourself. It’s also really nice to not have to clean up after that meal. Here, five finger-licking good restaurants within a short distance of the 903 Providence Place Apartments.

The Capital Grille

    Though many might disregard most nationally known restaurants, the Capital Grille stands as an impeccable downtown steak house. Known specifically for their delicious aged meats and wine pairings, the Capital Grille also has impeccable service. Classy from the moment you walk in, this restaurant is perfect for date night- especially when sitting on the patio and watching the famed Water Fire. Though pricey, their surf and turf dishes are a true party for your taste buds.

   

Mediterraneo

    In the heart of this predominantly Italian city is the Mediterraneo Caffe. An authentic antipasti bar, this restaurant is big on tradition and flavor. Enjoy cooked-to-order pastas, filets, seafood, or chops brilliantly garnished by their chefs. Don’t forget to try their highly recommended tiramisu or gelato! Afterwards, take a stroll down the notorious Atwells Avenue and take in the sights of historic Federal Hill.

The Red Fez

    Keeping authentic Mediterranean cuisine in mind, The Red Fez is one of those rare gems which change the menu according to season. Located in the center of downtown, the Red Fez is the perfect place to start out your night. The food is a real treat- fresh and healthful yet hearty and satiating. The atmosphere is comfortable and moody. The experience and service you get at The Red Fez will make this a frequent stop.

New Rivers

    Nestled in College Hill, New Rivers’ mission is to create a bistro-based menu with local ingredients delivered daily. New Rivers’ long-time chef offers innovative entrees, delectable charcuterie plates, and sumptuous desserts. Small and cozy, you can expect friendly, knowledgeable servers and gorgeous views.

Pastiche

    For those nights when you need to curl up with a fantastic baked good and some java, Pastiche serves up just that. Most famous for their heavenly fruit tart, Pastiche also serves up homemade cakes, cannnolis, chocolates, and brownies, to name a few. If you would rather curl up on your couch with your pastry, that’s fine too- take out is also available. Whether it is for a milestone event, a small celebration, or just a treat for you, Pastiche is the bakery to trust.
