CAV Restaurant

I just hosted the most perfect winter baby sprinkle at CAV. Not only is the space beautiful romantic and cozy the service was 100/10 and the food was amazing. Our servers’ attention to detail was unmatched. I have received non-stop compliments from all of the guests on the food and atmosphere. Highly highly recommend for hosting intimate events.

I have had several excellent dinner experiences at CAV, and was looking forward to trying brunch. Unfortunately, I was somewhat disappointed. The interior of CAV is eclectic in the best way. I've heard the owners traveled to Africa and returned with artifacts and a dream of opening a restaurant. I'm not sure. But the room is absolutely packed with interesting objects. For brunch this time, the food was all over the place. The coffee and desserts were delicious... These are the things they also offer at dinner time. The bruschetta was alright, but it, along with the other dishes we tried, displayed absolutely lazy and sloppy knife work. Ingredients were hacked into large chunks and uneven slices at a novice level. For my main, I got lobster and eggs. These were both cooked very well. But

First time in CAV and it was outstanding! Our server was on-point, the artifacts are amazing, and the food…. The food was excellent. We started with a gin martini and a lychee martini. Fresh and delicious. Perfectly poured. Then apps were walnut crusted Brie and calamari. So good. And large portions for the money. I got the scallops and shrimp, while hubby got the bolognese. I’ll let the picture speak for themselves. I HIGHLY recommend this place. You won’t regret it. Also met one of the owners, John, who was so nice! Make this a must stop when you’re in Providence.

What a great find! The place has a super cute, chic antique vibe — perfect for a date night. We showed up with our two kids instead, and surprisingly, it still worked out great! The food was delicious and beautifully plated, and the service was genuinely top-notch — friendly, quick, and professional. The whole place has this cozy speakeasy feel that makes you want to stay a little longer. Definitely going on our “must-return” list (and maybe next time, without the kids 😄).

Would definitely recommend! Atmosphere and service were highlights, the interior is just as beautiful as the pictures while maintaining a sense of warmth and a quaint but lively feel. The food was very well put together and very good, steak was cooked perfectly and the presentation was impeccable. A bit on the pricy side but what isnt these days. As long as it is worth the price I am fine with it, and it definitely was. Looking forward to returning sometime to try other items.
