On route 2 in Cranston there is a restaurant called Spain. It is not cheap and prices have gone up a lot since I left the state, but the food is awesome. They have a dish called Paella Valenciana. It is 50.00 but I think it serves 3-4 easily, the fucker is huge. If they have it in stock they make Block Island Swordfish better than anyone.

King's Garden | Cranston, RI 02910 | Menu - https://www.kingsgardencranston.com/menu.aspx
Has the best in the state. It is Hong Kong style and is as good as anywhere in Boston's China Town. Prices are really not bad compared to most places. my kids grew up eating squid in that place. The squid in Black Bean sauce is killer. My kids called it chewy fish.

You need to get on the Hill, that is Federal Hill annd is the Italian section of Providence. Angelo's is the real deal.
Italian Eatery | Angelo's Restaurant | Providence, RI - https://www.angelosri.com/
Some of the best Italian food anywhere.
It is very reasonable price wise. It is a family styled place where you eat at tables with strangers. The food is worth dining like that trust me. I am sure with Covid they probably have to do take out.
