Dante's Kitchen · East Greenwich
A New Orleans-style kitchen in East Greenwich serving gumbo, slow-roasted pulled pork with caramelized onion and barbecue sauce, and a classic jambalaya built on shrimp, chicken and andouille sausage. Rhode Island Monthly's 2024 brunch and breakfast feature covers it as part of a wider look at where to eat in the morning around Rhode Island. East Greenwich sits about fifteen miles south of downtown Providence, well within the metro.
The Royal Bobcat & Sadie’s On The Bayou · Federal Hill, Providence
A Federal Hill bar that pays tribute to 1920s New Orleans without leaving Rhode Island, serving Korean-Cajun food from Hanju Kitchen alongside its cocktail program. Rhode Island Monthly's late-2025 roundup of the city's secret bars and speakeasies places it in that same lineage of low-key, theme-driven spaces. It's an unusual pairing of cuisines under one roof, worth visiting for the food as much as the drinks.
