What People Are Saying About Walters Restaurant

The Scene – Ever wonder about the recipes brought to Italy by Jewish immigrants after the Spanish Inquisition? You've come to the right place. Walter's specializes in cuisine with an Italian-Jewish pedigree. The adventure begins on the second floor, where the warm interior of rich reds and exposed brick will make you feel like you're back in the old country. Fortunately, the down-to-earth waitstaff also double as translators. – – The Food – It's hard to believe, but this flavorful food is cooked without extra fat. The secret is in the restaurant's trademark use…
Editor's Tips
- Seasonal Change:
- If you find a favorite dish, make sure you watch the calendar: The menu at Walter's changes seasonally and your new favorite might not make the cut.
- Attention Vegetarians!:
- Don't be discouraged to find many of the dishes flavored with meat. Get creative and sample an array of antipasi salads, most big enough to share. Don't miss the house salad of finely chopped greens, bits of orange and apple slices.

Best restaurant on Federal Hill

My family and I went to Walter's this past weekend. It was phenomenal. I can't say enough about this place. The food was exceptional, the service was terrific. My waitress, I think her name was Kati was excellent. Very knowledgeable about the food and wine. The recommendations she made were appreciated by all, especially the Goat Cheese appetizer served in a little clay dish, piping hot with marinara sauce and crostini. The Fried Calamari dish had shrimp and scallops in it too. What a bonus.
When my family comes to visit me in Providence I always want to take them to a great restaurant. This, by far is the best and most authentic Italian Food in Providence. Hey, the Chef even has an Italian accent. He came over to the table and gave all of us tricolor pasta for us to try. Again, delicious. I highly recommend Walter's Ristorante to anyone who wants to have a delicious meal in a warm and friendly place. I felt as comfortable as I would have at home. Doesn't get better than that.
- Pros: Best food and service I've had in a long time
- Cons: None
