North - Providence

Enjoyed the spicy sesame noodles Toronto drink. No sugar-free dessert. Calm atmosphere. Convenient location at downtown Providence

The menu is creative and ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS. The staff was friendly and caring to everyone's needs in my party. Kudos to the team and management! A huge plus that they care about their community (as shown by their awesome signange) and their COVID protocols making sure everyone who enters is in a safe space. 10/10

Not worth the hype. Very limited menu for food and drinks. The food we got was saturated in whatever sauce they used on each dish and the tiny ham biscuits had no ham on them at all. I also had the tuna crudo which had the opposite problem of the other dishes as it was lacking in flavor.

This restaurant is closing on Sunday, July 3rd so us being new to the area really wanted to try it before it closed. We went on Wednesday, June 29th at 6:00pm and put our name and phone number down to receive a text when table is ready. The hostess informed us that we were #50. Thinking it would be a wait, but not too bad we waited. After 2 and 1/2 hours went by, they said we were #3. After another 20 minutes, the hostess came out and said I'm really sorry but we are closing the restaurant early tonight and cannot accommodate anymore people. You can imagine how upset one can be after waiting almost 3 hours. My husband was ready to give up, but i wanted to try it again and I knew the trick was to be there early. On Friday, we went to the restaurant at 5:10pm and there was already a line! Thankfully when the restaurant opened at 5:30pm we were able to grab a table right away. We spent about 2 hours at the restaurant. The food was very delicious and came out spaced apart. The chef puts a modern spin on typical Asian plates. The staff were very friendly and don't rush you at all. It's unfortunate I won't be able to try this place again.

Well we may have had our last meal here with the chef/owner announcing closing North and Big King this summer (we tried to reserve at Big King immediately after seeing the announcement but they are booked until they close). We have had many pleasant and memorable meals starting with our daughter 's undergrad days at Brown. We arrived on a weeknight when they opened 5:30 PM and they were soon full, a number of people were turned a way as no COVID vaccine card. The place is noisy and bustling. It is clear the staff was overwhelmed although someone was in training. Our drink was a bottle of Drunken Whale sake well priced at $54. Appetizers were a 1/2 dozen N Kingston (RI) oysters superb the 3 ham biscuits, and torched lamb. We split a a bowl of stuffed chicken ramen well flavored. I thought it could have had a bit more chicken but my dining companion said the quality overwhelmed my thought of more quantity. We finished with the miso tres leches cake. Overall, a great meal with damages with tip of $150. Go before it is gone! Food 5/5 Service 4/5 Value 4/5 Cleanliness 5/5 Noise 3/5 (average) Decor 4/5
