125 Canal St., Providence, RI 02903
401-272-3620
Cuisine: American / Bistro-Trattoria / Eclectic
Price: $$
Taking over a bistro that has been part of Providence's restaurant scene for over 25 years, new owners Julie and Bill Nahas have changed little. So many things, such as the sole amandine and especially the German sausage plate, have remained on the menu. The oversized, hand-carved wooden salad bowls are still home to spinach and Greek salads. And while the Nahases and chef Julio Quinonez have added a few new items such as steamed mussels Dijon, for the most part things seem the comfortably familiar.

852 Newport Ave., Pawtucket, RI 02860
401-726-6410
Cuisine: American / Japanese
Price: $
88 Asian Restaurant combines Chinese and Japanese cuisines. It's a challenging combination, because as much as we in the West like to generalize the East, these two cuisines don't have too much in common, except rice -- and even that is prepared differently. Casual. Reservations accepted for parties of six or more. Wheelchair accessible. Smoking section. Open Mon-Wed 3 p.m. to 2 a.m.; Thu-Sun 11 to 2 a.m. V, MC, DIS. On-street parking and nearby lots available. Highchairs available.
