Salted Slate - Providence

I reviewed The Salted Slate when it first opened last year (July 31st, 2014) and although I generally enjoyed my experience, I said I would give them about a month to iron out the kinks before I went back.  A year later and although generally speaking they're pretty darn good, it's a risky game of farm to table roulette. One day you can have an amazing meal, the next time (when your parents invite their high standard friends for dinner) pieces are missing, food is cold, portions are unimpressive.  I still root for The Salted Slate with all my heart...and STILL hope they can find the consistency they need to keep me coming back. goodeatsmundial.com

Ben knows what 's up! The pea ravioli with mint was outrageously good! Bacon burger was perfection. I had a delicious glass of wine, or two ????????????. Ryan(bartender) was a ????. If you 're single like me, and don 't feel like going out to eat at a cozy,intimate place, don 't fear. I felt safe and at 'home '. I want to go back tomorrow.

I have been at Salted Slate many times and it never disappoints. The menu is carefully crafted and every dish is special. Today we went to have breakfast and we had ricotta pancakes and salmon eggs benedict. The pancakes were adorned by fresh fruit andwere amazing. Egg benedict with salmon had capers and tiny sliced red onions. Our server Ryan was at the bar making crafteddrink and it was fascinating watching him: I wanted to order every single drink he made but it was too early to start,especially after the last night party. Ryan was professional and fun, cool and composed, you can talk to him about anything andhe was able to combine serving, crafting drinks and friendly talk. I wish we can go there every week. Instead, we go every otherweek! Bravo!

Nice, cozy bistro in Wayland Square. I've been here multiple times with friends! I've only tasted their dinner menu once though, the other times were for snacks and drinks. The cacio e pepe starter was probably my favourite dish of the night, well seasonedand creamy!! The main dishes are quite generous in portions, but I didn't particularly enjoy my lamb as much as I thought Iwould. They have a beautifully wide selection of wonderful wines. I love their charcuterie board, it is perfect for sharing. Iam obsessed with halloumi so I also got that starter to share when I was visiting with my cohort. Service is great and theambiance is perfect for a wine night. One of my favourite places to grab a drink in Providence!
