15 Point Road, A special treat in Portsmouth Rhode Island along the Sakonnet River. Busy, but not crowded, 15 Point offers casual upscale dining with an enchanting moonlit river view. A traditional menu, strongly influenced by the local bounty (especially from the sea), pleases most everyone and house specialties are an ever-changing eclectic delight of innovative and contemporary dishes. Once inside you will be entranced by the view of the Sakonnet River which leads out to the ocean beyond through the panorama of windows. While enjoying Al Fresco dining on our deck, across the river you will occasionally notice the local fishing boats as they make their way to the Tiverton fish market. If you're lucky enough, you might even catch one of the local lobstermen heading out to tend his lobster traps in Mount Hope Bay!

• Tapas / Small Plates • East Greenwich
Booked 10 times today
Tapas originated in Andalucia, a Southern province of Spain, and are considered a fundamental way of life. These tasty small dishes are traditional Spanish dishes found in every bar, cafe, restaurant, and home. A tapa is an appetizer or snack in Spanish cuisine that can be combined to make a full meal and can be cold (such as mixed olives and cheese) or hot (such as gambas al ajillo (shrimp in garlic) or patatas bravas). We wanted to bring this culinary experience to the heart of East Greenwich creating a shareable experience, transporting our guests to Southern Spain with a variety of diverse flavors and wine pairings that will entice their tastebuds.

    Arrived for our reservation and were seated promptly - Caroline filled our water glasses and we both ordered drinks - their draft selection is pretty good, had a Peroni and also a Grey Sail. Ordered an Appetizer, Baked feta with toasted Focaccia, good - but Value a bit off at $14-$16 range - just real simple and just felt not enough for the money. We ordered another round and a Bristol Pizza, have had it in the past and always enjoyed it - this night was no different, very good. Caroline was great, explained the specials, attentive and had a friendly personality. Would definitely return -

    Valentine’s day dinner was excellent! We had not been to this restaurant before. Off Thames Street in Bristol, drive thru the arch way toward the water to find ample parking. We were greeted by the hostess and sat inside near the fireplace. We ordered apps dinner drinks and desert. Our server was Matt who was friendly and answered all our questions. Great food drinks and service. This and a waterfront view too! A+ experience.
