About the restaurant

10 Prime Steak & Sushi is where East meets West in Providence, Rhode Island!

Guests can enjoy the ultimate dining experience among the backdrop of a cobalt blue, romantic, sexy setting visually landscaped with art that stimulates the senses. 10’s atmosphere becomes fun and lively with bubbles showering over our busy bar where the happy hour crowd sips on our signature cocktails and a Latin sound plays throughout the restaurant.

Developed as a restaurant for the 21st Century, our steaks are complimented by Rhode Island’s best sushi. 10 offers a full sushi menu featuring nigiri and sashimi, and 15 designer rolls, including the Signature Roll 10: Maine lobster, smoked salmon, asparagus, avocado, and caviar.

About the restaurant

Step into Sunday dinner on Federal Hill. Located in the heart of Providence’s historic Atwells Avenue, Anthony’s is where Italian hospitality meets the comfort of a true family kitchen. We anchor our menu in culinary pride, serving up plate-filling, house-made portions meant to be celebrated.

The atmosphere is lively, warm, and nostalgic with the energy of clinking glasses and shared platters. Whether you're toast-making for a milestone anniversary or just craving a massive bowl of pasta after a long week, you're family the moment you walk in.

Our Signatures:

Stuffed Artichokes: Garlic-infused, perfectly seasoned, and built to share.

The Classics: Crisp Veal Parmigiana bubbling with melted mozzarella over slow-simmered marinara.

Hand-Piped Cannolis: The perfect, sweet Federal Hill finish.

The Ultimate Perk: Skip the neighborhood parking panic. We have our own dedicated private parking lot.

Your table is waiting. Pull up a chair.

What a fantastic experience. Our server, Nicole and the rest of the team were attentive, knowledgeable, warm and exceptional. The cadence of the meal was perfect and their generosity in making the evening special truly sets this restaurant apart from all others in Providence. We appreciated the valet and their prompt service as well as the restaurant's ability to consider our dietary preferences even for the chef's tasting. The amount of thought and skill it takes to make these dishes is impressive and appreciated. Thank you Gracie's for a wonderful evening.

About the restaurant

After 30 years we present you India with a fresh new look, a creative menu offering a blend of contemporary and traditional favorites, a new kitchen & team elevating our food and service, and elegant lighting transforming the entire restaurant. Enjoy our Garden Bar and Patio in the summer and cozy fireplace seating in the winter.

America is a melting pot like India was over a 1000 years ago. Being in the US offers a chef a lot of exciting possibilities to play with the ingredients that are not commonly found in India. We are availing these opportunities to create an exciting menu that has a blend of traditional favorites like Chicken Tikka Masala and creative dishes like Bengal Fish Curry (made with Salmon that is not usually found in India). The goal is to present a creative, fresh, nutritious, tasty, flavorful and a balanced meal. Like the 21st century India, we are progressive with our cuisine and not bound by the ‘same-old’ mentality.
