I have been to Luigi's quite a few times. On thursday nights they have a special which is bottle of wine, salad or soup, one entree each and dessert for each for $39.99. The stuffed sole portion was very small but the lobster sauce is very good. Chicken marsala is great and so is the fruitti de mare. I dont... More

The food is outstanding, especially the chicken francaise, ziti al forno and spinach salad. They have catered multiple family events for us and have always exceeded expectations. They even delivered an extra tray of chicken at a very discounted price when we didnt order enough food one time. Can't say enough about this place! More

Had a meal there the other night. It was outstanding. Sauce is delicious, soup fantastic and the scrod mouthwatering. The desserts were to die for, especially the red velvet cake. More

I have been to Luigi's several times, and most times the food has been excellent. So, I decided to consider them for a baby shower in March for my daughter. I called and the manager was unable to come to the phone. I asked for the banquest manager and she was in that position also. She was to call me... More

I've been there in the past and expected high end Italian food. Meal was good but not great. Service was slow and forgetful, but pleasant. Wine list mediocre but well priced. More

Luigi's is my favorite Italian restaurant in Rhode Island. The food is always amazing with huge portions and gourmet flavors but without the gourmet prices. I'm never disappointed when eating there. You literally cannot pick a bad item on the menu. During my last visit there, my husband tried one of their specials and the waiter told us he was... More

I have been going to Luigi's for over 25 years on and off. Three recent visits there with family and friend found the refurbished dining rooms to be less formal and much more comforatble. The place is always busy and the expansions over the year including a couple of banquet rooms and a great deli speaks of the fine food... More

We moved to Rhode Island in May 2000, this place was trying to be a steakhouse because of the booming economy. When everything in the economy fell apart in 2001 and then the Station fire this place regressed back to medicore Italian food. I am in my forties so Italian food is just subsistence. I don't need a mound of... More
