Red Stripe
Red Stripe is a traditional brasserie with an edge. Classic, and unique. Red Stripe has the distinction of being upscale yet relaxed, where you will find people from all walks of life enjoying their dining experience. Red Stripe serves comfort food with a French influence – simple in context, yet refined in taste. Food that is reasonably priced and made with passion! Come try one of our originals – like the mouth watering Red Stripe Grilled Cheese, made with prosciutto, poached pear and basil; accompanied by our oven roasted tomato soup or hand cut frites and aioli (surely unlike any grilled cheese you’ve had before) or our wide selection of moules (ten to be exact!) always a house favorite!
Red Stripe is located on the East Side of Providence in bustling Wayland Square and was recently awarded “Best Neighborhood Restaurant” by Rhode Island Monthly.

"The restaurant was packed, we had to wait a few minutes for our table to be ready, but our hearts sank when we were seated in an awkward corner. There was maybe one foot of space between the table next to us, which made it feel like we were dining with the other party. It was very tight to get to our seats, and difficult for the servers as well."

Your Review:
It was such a perfect day, Red Stripe had its large front window open! It was great to feel a gentle breeze and hear the outdoor sounds while still being in the comfortable restaurant. As usual the food was delicious. Even my picky 4 year old nephew ate his Mac and Cheese with gusto! Our waiter, Aaron, was very attentive. A candle-lit piece of birthday cake for my sister topped off a wonderful birthday lunch."

"Drinks arrived one by one served by different servers over seemingly a long time and well after we ordered entres. Food was average except for the bread (best bread!) and mussels that come with different broths to soak bread in. Food came out randomly so our group of eight had to wait out of courtesy, hence cold fries etc. Hostesses seemed stressed and never smiled. Servers the same and hurried so didn't explain food other than "it's good". We ate there on a Sunday night."

"The menu has plenty to offer and I enjoyed my salad with wood grilled salmon but others in my party were less excited by their meals. Fish and chips was good but not exceptional. Half chicken with lemon sage came out looking like it had been fried over - there was a crispy, dry skin and a side bowl of a gravy with a slice of lemon sitting in the bottom of it.
Looking around, looks like there are plenty of good options on the menu, but we didn't hit gold with all of our choices."

"Really good food, really knowledgeable and helpful wait staff, great location, terribly noisy if there are more then a few tables in use.We avoid Red Stripe unless we can get in before the crowd; the noise level is just awful. The combination of a hard floor, no carpet, a hard ceiling, and absolutely no sound absorption materials anywhere makes it tough to enjoy the really superb food."

"The setting is fun and in a cute neighborhood, but food just wasn't very good. Sweet potato latkes that were fat and mushy. Paella with dried out chorizo and rubbery seafood. An onion soup that one member of our party couldn't eat because it was so greasy (she told the waitress, but the waitress did not offer to get her something else or comp the soup). At best, I would call this mediocre bar food."

"Red Stripe is our go-to place when we're in town visiting our daughter at Brown. With enough time, we can reserve a table for 6 to include many of her friends. At the height of meal time, it can be noisy but the last time I was there, we went after a performance at 9:30 and it was calm and quiet. I love the food, I usually order one of the many mussel dishes but last time I went for the seared tuna for something a bit lighter since it was so late, the tuna was perfectly cooked although I wish the julienne veggies had come with a little less peanut sauce for a lighter taste. The kids wanted a taste of home so they went for the Lavender Brick Chicken and the Meat and potatoes so everyone was happy!"

"The food is good. The wine list is very limited. The worst thing is on a Saturday night it's too loud to hear anyone speak. We only had four people and I was hoarse when we left from trying to make myself heard over the din. Even the waiter misheard every item I ordered! They need sound blocks or carpets."

"Red Stripe is definitely a neighborhood gem. The kind of place you almost don't want to tell others about, because it will get too busy. We have eaten there twice recently and have loved everything we had. The Steak Frites are especially good, if you are looking for red meat. The service is attentive, knowledgeable and friendly - a great combination in this kind of restaurant."

"I have been to Red Stripe several times and enjoyed the many meals I've eaten there. I finally tried their 10 oz. hamburger and was extremely disappointed. I ordered it medium rare and it was well done and very dry. In addition to the burger being over cooked, the bun was hard and dry as well. I will eat there again, however I will never order another hamburger there again."

"I have been dining at Red Stripe since they opened years ago. The food has always been good for the price. With the exception of the roasted beet salad with blue cheese, everything was off. Duck confit in the shepherd's pie was dry and tasteless. Even the bread, which is usually outstanding, was stale."

"I don't understand what has changed with Red Stripe. I know the ownership has but the food has really gone downhill. It's becoming more of a corporate restaurant type feel not the cozy east side restaurant I used to love. The menu hasn't changed in a very long time and they don't ever have lunch specials. I feel like they need to revamp something's in order to compete with the restaurants in providence that are always doing new and creative things. The service there is what it is. The waiter actually slide the butter across the table at us I had to catch it. He was nice but have a little more charm with your customers. The tomato soup which I used to love had a metallic taste. Stick with moulés and frites. They can't mess them up."

"Surprised that such a great restaurant is in a neighborhood setting rather than a more downtown setting. Definitely will go back again. Very small and tight seating so not good for group"

"We were a little disappointed with the food which we thought was heavy (a lot fried and creamy food). I didn't think that the cooking was especially inspired. The chocolate dessert that others at the table had was very enthusiastically received. This restaurant is noisy, but there is nice energy. I would go back, but would try to pick other food items next time. The waitress was very nice and hard-working."

"Red Stripe is a fun, vibrant neighborhood restaurant. They advertise as an American Brasserie, which is very accurate. Our server was just the right amount of attentive, and was knowledgeable about the menu. The atmosphere is noisy and the tables were a bit too close together, but it was still a good choice for a group (there were 6 of us). We plan to return again."

"The food was good, but the service was poor and despite making a reservation 5 days in advance, our table was in a crummy corner near the kitchen. This was a terrific disappointment. If the waitress insists on memorizing what people order, she better get it right. She didn't. It took five minutes to flag down our waitress just to tell her the meal was incorrect, and then it was another 10 minutes of watching my peers eat their meals before the waitress thought about offering me a salad while I waited."

"Where do I start. I went with a group of four during valentine day and I though the ambiance was amazing. The food was not good at all. The appetizer usually is enough to fulfill the entire table but we ordered a crab cake which was the only good food that night but the portion was horrible. Since when is appetizer just two crab cakes. ( we had to cut it into four pieces ) now the actual food comes quick and its all made on the stop this according to the waiter who to,d be my sauce was made from scratch. My friend and I ordered the burger which was to big to eat I had to cut it with a knife like usual but it still wasn't enough. The meat was not seasoned and I told the waiter well done and it was rare. My friend ordered steak which was good"

"It was good for a young couple to have a special night out. While it wasn't in our budget to go on a regular Saturday, it was not outrageous either. The food was delicious, and the staff was attentive. The worst thing about the experience is that the restaurant is quite loud, and while it was not a huge issue for us as a couple, I could see/hear larger groups struggling to yell over the collective noise to be heard at their own table.
TL;DR: Good food, good service, a bit loud."

"We were there Valentine's Day for dinner. Both my husband and I had the prix fixe dinner. We both had the potato leek soup which was delicious. I don't usually order meat, but the rack of lamb tempted me and was excellent, My husband had the blue crab stuffed ravioli which he enjoyed immensely. It's a warm, comfortable atmosphere, a little on the "lively" side, but we were able to have a conversation. We had an excellent waiter. We would definitely return. My only criticism was that I felt a little rushed."

"We eat at Red Stripe fairly regularly and have never been disappointed with the quality of service or food. The restaurant is are rare combination of family friendly and casual elegance. Paid parking is available in the lot behind the restaurant, but it's easy enough to park on the adjacent streets for free. Highly recommended."

"Aside from amazing food (mouthwatering Sourdough Bread, Mussels, Garlic Broccoli Rabe), what made this meal so enjoyable was truly the service.
The waitor even advised me to go with a different wine for the same price with less of an acidic finish. He was very attentive to our group of 6 and we all felt no pressure to leave upon finishing our food. Overall, a wonderful experience."

"This was my first time at Red Stripe and I was very impressed. I loved the decor and the restaurant had an energetic buzz. The sounds of others conversations did not drown out your own. The waiter was attentive, polite and had a good sense of humor. The food was excellent both in presentation and taste. My only "complaint" is that a glass of "house" wine was $9; a bit steep considering the price point of the entrees. I have driven by this restaurant numerous times without realizing it was there; better signage might have helped. Apparently, this does not hinder their business as the place was hopping! I will defintely be coming back."
