If you want a classic romantic night which involves dinner and a show, then Gracie's and the nearby Trinity Repertory Company make a great combination. This AAA-four diamond restaurant features ingredients from local farms and fisheries as well as its own rooftop garden in order to bring the bountiful harvest of New England to diners' plates. There are two tasting menus, one is five courses, the other seven and both offer wine pairing as an option. The tasting menus as well as the prix-fixe ones present plates that vary according to season.
Waterman Grille conveys an unpretentious casual attitude yet there is still something quite refined and elegant about it. The restaurant follows the small plates in seasonal settings mantra, for example, a sample menu could include pork belly tacos, harissa meatballs, lobster grilled cheese or Block Island fluke. All plates can be paired with wine from their vast selection. Additionally, from Sunday to Wednesday, the prix-fixe presents a three-course dinner for two at a great price.
Hemenway's is a restaurant along the edge of the Providence River that specializes in seafood, in fact, it's one of College Hill's most beloved oyster houses. Since Providence is close to New England's greatest seaports like New Bedford, Boston, Gloucester, Cape Elizabeth and many more, Hemenway's is where you'll find the fruits of the Atlantic. The restaurant is dedicated to the founder's grandfather, Charles M. Hemenway, a local and big-city entrepreneur who loved New England. Needless to say, almost every ingredient on the menu can be sourced from local farms, fisheries and producers, just ask your waiter and they will know.
This restaurant at the confluence of the Providence and Moshassuck Rivers is considered one of Providence's best New American eateries.

It's located near on the river's edge, a very short walk from downtown hotels and only a few blocks to College Hill.

Here at this little restaurant on Hope Street, the menu is as eclectic as it can possibly be, with dishes that range from fish & chips to Korean-style bimbimbap, the kitchen is more than creative. Most of the menu items are sandwiches, in which there are vegan, chicken, pork, turkey and fish options. The Korean influence also makes another appearance with a Bulgogi steak sandwich on the menu. This sliced, soy-marinated masterpiece served on a garlic Bulkie roll is one of the best versions of this sandwich in the entire state of Rhode Island.
