Living in a foodie state means we eat really good. New restaurants, which often give us the chance to expand our culinary horizons, are always opening. Sometimes, though, we prefer a meal at a restaurant that's stood the test of time, where we know we're going to get a delicious meal time after time. This family-owned restaurant in Rhode Island has been around for decades, and it's about as good as it gets when it comes to delicious food.
Although it sports an unassuming exterior, Louis Family Restaurant in Providence doesn't disappoint when it comes to flavorful food and hearty meals.
The beloved neighborhood restaurant has been a staple since 1946, so you know you're sitting down to a quality meal with impeccable, friendly service.
You'll feel right at home in this cozy diner that follows the motto, "We always put customers first."
You'll have to find a parking spot on the street near the diner, which could mean a short walk. However, one bite, and you'll realize the effort was more than worth it.
Louis serves breakfast and lunch daily, and you'll see all of the classic breakfasts on the menu - pancakes, French toasts, and sandwiches, for example.
Whether you're having breakfast or lunch, your taste buds will love you for trying the fresh, homemade bread. It really is to die for!
Heading over for lunch? Expect a crowd, which will give you plenty of time to decide what to order. From cold and hot subs to burgers and hot dogs, the menu offers a little bit of everything.
Although the diner closes at 3 p.m., it still serves a range of delicious dinners, including lasagna, fish and chips, and spaghetti.
Check out the day's specials, too. Tuesday's star Shepherd's Pie and Friday is fish and chips.
Specials are offered Monday through Friday.
