The POB offers a nice variety of seafood dishes on their menu, although I personally I thought prices on many dishes were a bit high. They do have some reduced starters and appetizers available during their happy hour. Margaritas were just okay and small at $13.00. Despite the somewhat inflated prices I did thoroughly enjoy my meal along with very good service.

Think this is a solid restaurant for oysters, sushi and drinks. Wasn't impressed by the pork milanese, short rib or burger. Short Rib was very dry. Service was great.

We ordered from the Providence Restaurant Week menu. There were many great choices. Their regular menu also has excellent dishes. We had a very enjoyable evening at POB!

There were 6 of us - four of us thought our food was very good; 2 thought it was just okay. Personally I thought the clam chowder was very good. The Cod Romana was pretty good. The pistachio cake was quite tasty. As for the service, I am not sure if they are understaffed or the staff needs to be trained. It took a long time for us to receive our drinks each time. The food did come in a timely fashion; however the main entre was served hot but the accompanying sides were luke warm. Finally, the server took her time in clearing the dishes and glasses, leaving a very messy table almost all the time.

Food well prepared and accurate for 9 of us! Service excellent as well. They kindly gave 2 diners birthday desserts for free, which is a nice touch, and appreciated. We are regulars, and this small kindness goes a long way. My only disappointment was there were fewer selections for Restaurant Week specials (from past choices), and coffee was $4.50, which I consider pricey.
