Twin Oaks is a Rhode Island tradition, and it’s great reputation is well deserved. I went fir the first time in 30 years, when I came back for a visit.

We went for Dad’s birthday and we were able to seat 10. Great place for large parties. The atmosphere was a little too busy for my liking, as the front felt like a rush hour subway terminal. Way too congested for my comfort. However, the food was great and the portions were BIG. Definitely plan on leftovers when ordering from here.

Truly the best food with elite staff and a menu everyone can enjoy. The baked scallops with cheese and bacon my absolute favorite meal! I’ve never left this place disappointed and have been coming since I was a child (I’m 35 now)

Professional waiters in white shirts and bow ties. Very large menu with traditional Italian dishes. This was my first but not my last trip to this wonderful restaurant.

Exquisite dinner, vase menu, and elegant dining experience. Most definitely over priced, but that comes with the territory. I’ve never had something i didn’t like. When i need a “fancy” restaurant, or want to feel classy and rich, this is the place to go.

Food is always fantastic, priced well..I always visit Twin Oaks during my visits to RI..my friends and I were seated in the Bar area for our dinner, not a fan of that atmosphere, wished we would have been asked before seated in there, truly would have liked a brighter room..

Pre pandemic. I lived here. 4-5 days a week. Baked stuff shrimp was always my favorite along with shrimp cocktail, stuffed mushrooms..I spent a ridiculous amount of money and I tip 100% of the bill. My fave waiters were Mike and David. They had left prior to the pandemic. Mondays closed but usually there with a friend Tues through Saturday..when they reopened after the pandemic. I went with a friend and he couldn’t even eat his baked stuffed shrimp. I ate two of mine. Went downhill to the point I’d never return. Ordered the usual stated above along with calamari Ala mama. No banana peppers, not tossed in garlic and butter sauce but came with a side dish of this greenish looking slime that was very sour tasting. We were so disgusted. I Paid the bill and NEVER went back and never will. The waiter didn’t even ask why we didn’t eat anything. It’s a shame because in the past I spent almost every day in there spending thousands for years..right down hill. I’m still seeing bad reviews here and the good ones are from people who have never been here so they don’t know the difference. Shame..it was my favorite place at one time..here’s the pic of their supposed calamari with banana peppers tossed in garlic and butter sauce. No banana peppers and a yellow green sour tasting thick slime. Absolutely disgusting.

The service was great. The food, however. Average at best. Twin oaks used to be the place to go. Food has gone downhill some. I had the Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken. The Alfredo was tasteless, and the chicken was awful, I ate 2 pieces, and they were chewy. Gross. Nope, not for me. Our waiter Frank was great.
