Purslane Eatery

This is one of my favorite places to go for lunch and dinner. I’ve been several times and I’ve never been disappointed by the food or service. My most recent visit my boyfriend and I had their chips & caviar, butternut squash curry soup, smash burger, and their pork sandwich which were all to die for. We also had tasted a few cocktails and their spiked eggnog special was absolutely delicious! I am gluten free and the staff is always so attentive and accommodating and although they are not a dedicated gluten free kitchen I’ve never gotten sick afterwards. It is so nice to see a locally owed place doing well and serving up delicious food. Can’t wait to return for another delicious meal.

Purslane is what all gastropubs should strive to be. I live on Long Island but try to find excuses to always stop by Purslane even if it's an hour out of my way. If I'm driving to Providence or Boston, it's worth the detour and if you're going to Newport, it's a crime not to eat here. The creative, beautiful dishes are affordable with a little Asian spicy kick to them. The cozy dinning room and bathroom with whimsical wallpaper make the ambience enjoyable or, if the weather permits, the sidewalk dining by firepit with a local beer makes for a fun time with your group. No question deserving of a Bib Gourmand rating, this gem of a restaurant would have a monthslong waiting list if located in Boston or NYC.

Addicted to their smoked bluefish dip - have ordered 2 servings to go as my dinner before if that tells you something 😅 everything else is phenomenal as well. One of my local favorites since they opened!! Beautiful interior and design. edit: Their Chicken Milanese is perhaps my new favorite ?!?!

Purslane - A True Gem in Wakefield Purslane is a must-visit in Wakefield! This spot has a fantastic, intimate and cozy setting with a genuinely fun vibe. The exceptional service makes you feel incredibly welcome from the moment you step inside. The food is truly outstanding. We started with the pork belly appetizer, which was a delicious masterpiece of rich pork, fresh local tomatoes, and a kick of jalapeños. The crispy brussels sprouts that followed were also a perfect start. For our main courses, the pasta puttanesca was absolutely divine. The rich, savory tomato sauce clung perfectly to the house-made pasta, with the tuna and anchovies adding a beautiful depth of flavor. My partner’s butterhead double smash burger was equally impressive, perfectly cooked and paired with delicious homema

We came from New York to spend a few days by the ocean and stumbled upon this place and we’re so glad we did! 🩵The atmosphere inside is absolutely beautiful and full of life, with lots of real plants that make the space feel cozy and vibrant. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and welcoming, with the kindest smile she truly made our visit special. My husband tried oysters for the first time, and they were fresh, flavorful, and perfectly served. 🥹The rest of the food was just as delicious, and we already know this will be our go-to spot every time we come back. If you’re traveling and looking for a place with unique cocktails, fresh and flavorful food, and a warm, inviting atmosphere — this is the #1 place to go. 😍Highly recommend to everyone!!!
