About the restaurant
Dine on a fusion of American and Italian cuisine at Fresco. Its relaxing atmosphere, as well as friendly service, allows for comfort while enjoying a good meal and conversing with friends or family. Chefs at Fresco creatively plate meals made to order and from fresh ingredients. Guests can choose from an array of flavorful appetizers, soups and salads before moving on to their main course. An entrée of roasted pork tenderloin topped with apple chutney or pan-seared chicken with red pepper mascarpone sauce will fulfill the appetite. Wood-grilled pizza, gluten-free and pasta dishes, as well as scrumptious desserts are on the menu. Fresco has a full bar and provides wine pairings with meals. It features daily specials, including prix fixe dinners on Monday. Reservations are also welcomed. Top review

About the restaurant
All the way back in 1955, the four sons of an immigrant millworker decided to take a chance. They opened a restaurant on Cumberland’s bustling Mendon Road with nothing to their names other than a shared dream and vision - fresh and local ingredients, prompt and friendly service, all to be had at an unbeatable value. They developed a motto and never steered away from it – “If you are not proud of it, do not serve it!”. That restaurant was the original Chelo’s Hometown Bar & Grille, and that motto can be found hanging in each of our kitchens to this very day. While times change, our values don’t. As a third generation, family owned and operated company, our food is still made fresh in our commissary 7 days a week and delivered to each of our locations daily . Same ingredients, same recipes, same classic food that Rhode Islanders have come to know and love since our grandfathers first opened our doors nearly 70 years ago!

About the restaurant
An inviting craft cocktail bar offering classics, originals, inspired & familiar flavors. We sip, we savor, we share.The inspiration for Needle and Thread came from the history of the space located at 45 Peck St. in downtown Providence. For more than half a century Antonio Conte dutifully served the professionals in the city's center, with an old world style haberdashery, providing suits, outer ware and evening attire. For more than 2 years the Needle and Thread was constructed piece by piece with the same attention to detail and love Mr. Conte poured into every garment he constructed.
