The Village PVD
The Village PVD has been serving authentic Nigerian cuisine for more than a decade and recently opened a new location in Downtown Providence. While serving the delicious food their original location has been known for, the Providence location offers a wider selection of vegan and vegetarian options. The dining room offers a cozy modern ambience as you look out onto the bustling city street. While you're there, try some popular classic dishes like jollof rice, pepper soup, or efo riro, and be sure to save room for some delicious fried plantains or puff puff, a popular deep-fried dough ball similar to a doughnut hole.
10 Rocks Tapas Bar and Restaurant
Nestled on the border of Providence and Pawtucket, 10 Rocks Tapas Bar and Restaurant opened nearly a decade ago with a vision to share Cape Verde's rich culture through infused tapas, cocktails, music and atmosphere. Their tapas are a harmonious blend of traditional recipes and modern creativity, resulting in an unforgettable infusion of Cape Verdean flavors.
Casa Azul Taqueria
The second you walk through the doors and into the bright, vibrant dining room of Providence's Casa Azul Taqueria you instantly feel welcomed like an old friend. The selected family recipes adorning the menu are made with the freshest ingredients and the sincere love and admiration from the chefs. They care about the food they're making and the guests they're serving. Casa Azul believes everyone deserves to be able to enjoy real Mexican cooking, and offers a large variety of options for both meat and vegan eaters.

One of the city's newest and most exciting dining experiences can be found in a riverside corner of the Providence Place Mall.
