What People Are Saying
from Google"I wish I could give a higher review on the food. We weren’t super hungry and we were grabbing cold cuts for later and wanted something light to hold us over. OMG it was the best calamari EVER! We’ve had calamari from coast to coast and hands down the best ever. It was light, buttery and no heavy breading. It was so tender. I can’t wait to go back someday for more. Also we had the anti pasta plate. It was very good. Great selection of meats & cheeses. Be sure to stop by the deli next door. 😋"
"Our first time here. The mushroom arancini delicious. The Bolognese absolutely delicious. Highly recommend a trip 😁"
"We had such a wonderful experience at Constantinos! Our server, Alex, was fantastic—attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect. My husband and I dined outside, and it was absolutely beautiful. The food came out quickly, and our drinks were spot on—he had a Whalers, and I enjoyed a peach Bellini martini. We started with the eggplant rolatini, which was delicious, and shared the veal piccata. They even split it for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. Between the amazing view, the sound of the water fountain, and the relaxing atmosphere, it honestly felt like we’d left Providence and were dining somewhere in Europe. Highly recommend!"
"Amazing pasta in a beautiful setting for an outdoor summer meal. Service was a mixed bag (understand now how a place so nice with food this good could only rate 4.1). For us, it was still a very good experience. When we walked up, we were a little apprehensive. The party in front of us was greeted by short hostess in a grey sweater without the slightest hint of a smile or enthusiasm- quite the opposite as she impatiently asked they had a reservation (restaurant was sparse) and spun on her feet, grunting “follow me” as she darted away). Fortunately, a more pleasant server came over, greeted us, and sat us at a nice table. Hard not to notice the other hostess walking back/forth during the meal glaring at customer and staff with a scowl on her face (really seems like a bad fit for that role). Anyway, our server was very nice and service in general was on the ball and pleasant. I had the Cavatelli woth Sausage & Broccoli Rabe. It was awesome! Savory with just the right amount bitterness in the rabe and a hint of heat from chili flakes. Texturally, the pasta was perfect. Similarly, my wife’s Cannelloni was very nicely done. My daughter’s pork raguot with rigatoni was rich and delicious. We also tried the fried gnocchi was yummy in its own right. It’s lively and on a wait by 6:30p. Probably a good idea to do a reservation. Definitely worth a try."
"Came on a Saturday night, loved the live music and the overall atmosphere. Food was great, I unfortunately don't remember our servers name but she was really good."
