Laura’s Bar and Grill

My friend told me about them , we made reservations for New Years Eve Dinner of 8 people . The waitress was amazing , kind , funny , patient and very attentive . Especially with my Toddler and such a large group . The food and drinks were Amazing !!! And at a very reasonable price they are not shy with the serving portions . Looking forward to coming again in the future.

Enjoyed this place alot. The menu offers quite a variety of choices for all types of preferences & diets. Our server, Shannon, was super friendly, got our orders all the way we had requested & this place, although it seems to always be packed with patrons, you don't ever get the vibe that folks are trying to hurry you out. This was my first time visiting. My 2 other friends had already been here a few times. They're frequent customers & I'm glad they had suggested it because now I have another place to try & maybe bring others.

Food was good. I systematically ordered down their menu over 3 weeks and was never disappointed. Service was good and there were several environments (bar, extended indoor porch, booths). Pricing was medium to high but appropriate. Service varied from average to excellent.

great food and fast professional service, best white clam chowder i ever had. fish n chips was huge. son loved the giant pretzel and nashville hot chicken sandwich

Sooo good! Pepperoni hot honey flatbread, short rib Mac n cheese and cheeseburger bowl. ALL delicious, and plenty for later.

Went here on Saturday around 3 PM with a party of nine. I ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp Bowl, and others in our group had steak tips, salmon, sliders, and more. Overall, everyone really enjoyed their food. The flavors and portions were great. Unfortunately, one of the steak tip plates had a small metal wire piece in it, likely from a grill-cleaning brush. Once we brought it to our server Julie’s attention, she handled the situation perfectly. She was professional, apologized immediately, and removed the meal from the bill. She even offered to replace it with something else, but the person declined after the experience. Aside from that issue, Julie provided excellent service. She was attentive, friendly, and made sure we were taken care of throughout the meal. Despite the mishap, the rest of the food and experience were very good, and I would still recommend this place for the quality and portions.

For sure busy and family oriented which isn’t bad but there were a lot of large groups when I was there and it did take away from the service a bit but not enough to make a bad experience by any means. Just a note. The website waitlist also was a bit glitchy but the wait still wasn’t too long. They did seem well staffed. The food was much better than I expected. It had a chilis or Applebees vibe at first but they had some unique flavors I was surprised to see. I got an Asian inspired noodle soup dish (can’t remember but I posted a photo of it). Coming from someone who eats a lot of Asian foods like Pho and Hu Tieu, this was an amazing dish! Flavor was epic. Filling. Fresh. And a great surprise! Bathrooms could use some attention but not nasty.

I loved my first time at Laura’s. This is the first restaurant I ate pasta and it didn’t disappoint! 5/5! I highly recommend the buffalo chicken dip, the buffalo Mac and cheese, and the Tuscan rigatoni! Don’t forget the drink— a cranberry mule sangria, I had to get two!!

Came back the next night for the French Dip sliders. We split an order and STILL couldn't finish them. Quesadilla & Taco Salad too

My husband and I stopped here on Saturday night with our son and his girlfriend. We had heard great things about this restaurant, so we were excited to give it a try. It certainly exceeded our expectations! From the moment you enter, you can see that they run like a well oiled machine. Servers moved around the restaurant quickly and effortlessly taking orders, interacting with customers,delivering food to tables, and turning over tables without making it seem like you were being rushed. The diehard sports vibe and lively atmosphere added a unique vitality to our dining experience. To top it off, the extensive menu made it easy to select a meal, and the food was outstanding! The drinks were fun, and the prices were very reasonable. This place lives up to the hype! We will be back.

Tried Laura's for first time a week ago and I have already been back. The food is great and service is good. The restaurant and bar are very big so even though our reservations were list the wait was not very long. Definitely come here. Food is great.

So I've come here a few more times since my initial review and overall it's a pretty general experience. I came for brunch this time and I was a little disappointed. On their social media you see all these creative dishes for brunch but when we arrived, there weren't any options like that. However, the food that we did have was tasty and fresh. The staff was pretty welcoming.

Mom and I are frequentl guests of this restaurant. I enjoy the open layout, the quick service, and the quality of the food. Today was a rare disappointment with overcooked and greasy fish and onion rings. I am grateful to Alexis for removing the charge from our bill. She is a solid employee. Mario

Laura's has become one of favorite restaurants. Our recent visit I didn't order my usual lobster Mac and cheese and I tried the burger. I had the build your own burger and my husband had the Cheat Day burger and they were both delicious. I also ordered a side Caesar salad so I could check if they make a good salad for next time, the salad was really good... the romaine was nice and crisp and they use a nice creamy dressing that was tossed perfectly with the romaine. We've visited quite a few times since we first tried it about 3 years ago and we're always happy with our meals (just wish they were closer!).

I don't know how I've slept on Laura's in Smithfield--what an incredible spot. We went after hiking and had originally planned on Blackie's for my wife's birthday, but they were closed, so we gave Laura's a try. Best decision! We were seated right away in a bright room with garage doors--would be beautiful on a sunny day. We ordered appetizers and they came out huge. The street corn nachos were phenomenal and gigantic, the loaded fresh-cut fries were delicious, and the eggplant sliders were perfectly cooked--you could cut them with a fork, skin and all. I treated myself to an Espresso Martini flight, and the churro martini was my favorite (the cookie and coconut ones weren't really for me). My wife ordered the peanut butter cheesecake brownie, and WOW. This thing is massive. A homemade brownie base, thick cheesecake layer, light chocolate mousse, and topped with a homemade peanut butter cup made with natural peanut butter. Absolutely delicious--worth the trip just for dessert. The staff was phenomenal, attentive and friendly. TVs all around the bar and dining room make it a great spot to catch a game, too. Honestly, I can't say enough good things about Laura's. We'll definitely be back, and I'd recommend it to anyone in the area--or even worth the drive.

Had a great dinner Saturday night at Laura's. The place was seemingly busy, and we were quoted a wait time however we were seated much faster. Host staff was very friendly. Our server did a nice job staggering our appetizer and meals since we ordered all at once. The only downfall of the visit was that it was quite cold inside. The bus boys were quick to clear any dirty dishes from the table and all around service was great. Our meal choices were awesome and the portions were huge. Looking forward to returning to try more menu items (especially their brunch).

Absolutely love the food here. The staff is friendly, the place is clean and spotless! Always crowded though. Parking can be a struggle. No reservations just a wait list.

Food here is amazing with big portions. The nacho appetizer and cheese burger egg rolls go a long way with a party of four. Ordered the bbq pulled pork Mac and cheese. This was phenomenal and everything was cooked amazing. Staff very friendly and fast. Restaurant is filled with lots of sports memorabilia. Always love to eat hear, def will be back to try more off the menu.

Checked this delightful place after a suggestion from my sister. We were happy the moment we stepped foot in there! From the friendly hostess to the attentive wait staff, We already had a great feeling about Laura's! My other half ordered a seafood pasta dish with a red sauce that he gave that plate a 10! I ordered the lobster Mac & cheese that was amazing! Don't let me forget the delicious appetizer we had also which was the coconut shrimp with mango sauce. Topping it off with a slice of a huge nice piece of chocolate cake that we brought home to share. We love Laura's so much we have been back every week since! We were told they are constantly changing their menus and specials. They Also offer drink specials on different nights. Which I peeked at other consumers drinks and they looked like a AI picture of a fancy drink. Take a drive right down 295 south & check this place out! The interior is also beautiful and well lit w/ a huge bar in case your into that!

I had the soup of the day Italian wedding soup to start, then the Greek salad with shrimp. So good and everything so fresh. I loved soup so much took second helping home for lunch the next day. Friend got sliders and enjoyed them. The service was nice and helpful. And the sports bar vibe is always an enjoyable atmosphere. Will be back.

Went here on the Sunday of labor day weekend, called ahead so no wait to be seated, drinks & food were delicious and the waitress was great too, I cant remember her name, but she was very knowledgeable of the menu & very friendly! This was my first time eating here, but I've ordered take out many times & am never disappointed!

What a great place. My friend was having a birthday and this was the place. Drinks, very well made. We didn't really do apps. Entrees? Holy F'n Moly. Fantastic. I had a Cobb salad with blackened shrimp and it was amazing. The shrimp were cooked just right. The salad itself was crisp and assorted like a great Cobb. Could have been a lot colder, but it gave me my bacon fix, as well. Looking at some of the other entrees... The Bang Bang chicken dish was lovely to behold and the person who ordered it loved it. I saw a few breaded breasts that looked amazing. There was some great looking pastas, as well. My daughter thought the pickle burger was fantastic. Service was wonderful. They were helpful and accommodating but not lurking/hovering. The ambiance was that of a regular open air down restaurant. Wasn't noisy. The place was bustling. The servers looked like it was all under control. I'd give it five stars, but they didn't have the entree or the dessert the birthday girl wanted. Ran out. Still, highly recommend. I can't wait to go back.

Me and my husband come to Laura's often and every time the service is great! It is quite loud but it's a sports bar so understandable, but it's not unbearable. We are creatures of habit and get the same wings and pizza every time or the sliders (which are amazing). This time I wanted to try the Ramen and I'm so happy I did! It was so good and it's basically perfect for two people because it's such a large portion. Would 100% recommend Laura's bar and grill for your next outing with friends or family

Friendly, prompt service in a welcoming environment. Many sports bars aren't well kept, but Laura's is. The burger was juicy, which paired well with the crispy bacon and fried egg. Fries are good, but could've been a bit hotter. Overall, good experience and would recommend for a solid American meal!

I was on a business trip and staying across the street at the Hilton hotel and was unfamiliar with the area. When I arrived I saw this restaurant across from where I was staying, and figured since it was close, I'd eat dinner there. The hostess greeted me as I walked through the door and was friendly. I looked around the restaurant and noticed it was very busy and almost to capacity. Once seated I was given a menu and had numerous choices to choose from. Since thanksgiving is only a few days away, there were some "thanksgiving" choices to choose from. I ordered the "thanksgiving sliders, thanksgiving egg rolls," and the Mashed Potatoes bowl. All were spot on!! The Turkey breast was real breast meat, not deli slices. Everything came out fresh and delicious. I'm glad I chose there to eat, no complaints.

Can't believe I haven't discovered this place until this year! Everything here is amazing. Service is always fast and attentive. They constantly have specials throughout the week. Their pasta dishes, chicken sliders, appetizers, etc are all outstanding. I would really recommend the hot chicken sliders. The pulled pork Mac and cheese really surprised me on how delicious it was. Their margaritas... killer. I encourage getting the pretzel, wings, or loaded nachos as an appetizer. Definitely a great pick when deciding where to go!

We had one of the specials, as asian chicken bowl. The chicken was hard as a rock, not fresh at all. Just terrible and usually the food is good. Also has the raspberry cake dessert. That was stale as can be. Totally awful meal!! It wasn't the waitresses fault but when we mentioned it, she still charged us for these meals!!. I had her speak to the manager, then, they took them off.

The food is outstanding the service was great and I am looking forward to going here again.

Another review for Laura's !!! Whether you are a small group, large group, date or solo this place never fails. I feel like I've had a majority of their menu (drinks too) everything is always fresh, delicious and timely. As always service is impeccable- the waitresses are always so friendly and accommodating to our needs/preferences.

This place is great! I've been twice now and both times were impressive. The menu is extensive and I could easily order atleast 20 things on it. Instead I've gotten the chicken parm sandwich with vodka sauce and the loaded mashed potato flatbread. These were both very filling and delicious! I found the prices to be reasonable and the service to be exceedingly friendly. It's definitely a place to go and one of my new favorite spots!

Short drive to Smithfield RI to have dinner with family. Started at Terrazza RI for their delicious white sangria and buffalo flatbread for an app. Then we made our way down the street to another favorite of ours for dinner at Laura's Bar and Grill. I had the chicken parmesan over angel hair pasta with a delcious pink sauce, the chicken was the crispiest I've had. The other dish was the seafood capaleinni that was on special. We finished with the cherry amaretto tiramisu, if your at Laura's you have to have their fin desserts that are made inhouse.

Impressive variety, mostly poised towards meat eaters, with many drinks and a stunningly disciplined kitchen. I say this as I watched the restaurant, slammed on a Monday, deliver table after table of food accurately. My own meal was an order of fish tacos, which were good; didn't have overly-battered fish, and were tasty. They're awkward to eat, as they're presented with three taco V-stands, a place for the "side" (could be fries to coleslaw) but no plate. Cuts down on washing, is my rationalization. I was tempted by other selections and might try others. A downside is that they immediately ask for your name and phone #, and it's not even our first date. Parking is good, and they can handle a crowd. It's not formal dining, and is parent-friendly. Prices are...reasonable given price inflation today. I wish my budgets were higher, given certain tempting menu selections. Overall, it would be tough to do badly here.

Wow! I cannot say enough great things about this place! Everything was truly fantastic from start to finish. We kicked things off with the steak and cheese egg rolls, which were absolutely delicious and the perfect way to start the meal. For our mains, we ordered a turkey BLT, mac and cheese, and the squash ravioli with braised beef -- every single dish was flavorful, fresh, and so satisfying. Our waitress (whose name I'm forgetting, but she had short blonde hair) was such a sweetheart -- incredibly attentive, kind, and made us feel really well taken care of. Service was just as outstanding as the food, which is always a win in my book. The only downside was that we were too full for dessert, which is a shame because the chocolate cake we walked past looked absolutely incredible. Next time, we'll definitely have to save some room! 10/10 -- highly recommend and can't wait to come back!

I have been to Lauras for lunch/dinner close to a dozen times in the past two years!! My family all love eating there, as well as about a dozen friends of mine. We all love the ambience, the delicious food that NEVER disappoints, and the incredible waitresses who consistently provide excellent, friendly service!! My wife and my son and I had a late dinner there tonight and we were happy with our food and even moreso we appreciated the friendly and professional service we received from our delightful waitress, Julie who was so pleasant and always had a smile to share. This was my third time eating there in the past ten days and I will be back for lunch this Thursday with close friends/former co-workers from PPAC where I used to do volunteer work!

The food, service and vibes at Laura's are always the best! Their flatbreads are HUGE and really tasty! Their martini nights are so unique and they always have great drink specials! Their bar is a great place to meet and watch a game! Definetly give the steak and cheese egg rolls a try while you watch! The 4 stars is for the parking! It can be tough at peak meal times to find a parking spot and to parking in the hotel next door is not permitted. Though to date I've never had to leave because I couldn't find parking! Definetly worth a try!

A Yelp search brought up Laura's Bar and Grill. I saw there was over 500 reviews which is impressive in itself and tons of photographs so I knew this was a place that I wanted to come and visit. Rosa was our server. My guest ordered the Cheat Day Burger and said it was huge and excellent came with 1 side choice, tater tot's was the choice. Myself. I had the California BLT wrap with sweet potato fries This was an excellent choice. It was Wednesday so it was martini day and I opted for the blueberry Apple lemon drop for $6 dollars. The drink was a miss for me. I would not order it again. The food was excellent atmosphere is good. Plenty of seating at the bar, high tops and booths Definitely a place that I would want to come back and visit again and I think you should too Go ahead and pay them a visit I'm sure that you'll be happy.

Had an amazing experience from great service to expertly made cocktails. The food was exceptional. I am vegan. My daughter is not. We both had high quality prepared food. The beyond meat build your own burger was excellent. Great flavor and properly cooked. Not everyone gets that right. My daughter's filet mignon also perfectly cooked at medium rare. Fries were hot and server checked on us at all the right times. I am 40 years in food and beverage so impressing me is not easy to do. Everything about this experience made my daughter and I have a great post xmass moment.

I came here with a friend to celebrate the completion of a huge work project! This place was packed on a rainy Friday night! We got there around 4 PM and were seated quickly - we sat at the comfy high tops near the bar. My friend had a watermelon mojito and I tried the spicy watermelon Paloma. We both loved our drinks! My friend ordered the sliders with fries. She enjoyed the sliders. I tried the mango habanero wings with fries. The wings were good - crispy with a little kick! The fries were okay - I wish they had some seasoning on them. We spent hours yapping & drinking - our server was kind & attentive to make sure we had everything we needed! I wish this place had happy hour specials but all the parking & good vibes means I'll probably come back

This place is not too far from my house. I decided to stop in with a friend. We ordered appetizers, sushi and the eggplant Florentine...... so delicious The bartenders are really nice, the service is fast and the ambience is so amazing. From the street you would not think it was as big inside as it is. There are plenty of seats at the bar, tables and booths to choose from. Give this place a try, you won't be disappointed

I recently ate at Laura's Bar and Grill. It was my first time there, but it seems like a favorite of one of my kids. They have a great beer menu, and we tried a couple of their specials, one from the land and one from the sea. The scallops over butternut squash risotto was the absolute winner. It was delicious, with both sweet and savory flavors. We ended up fighting over it and brought a taste home for Mom to try.

Laura's is good, but I think it's a little overrated. The parking lot is always a nightmare, there is often a long wait time, and the food is fine. It's a loud environment and isn't very aesthetically pleasing. I think it's a local staple, but it's all in all not one of my faves.

Our first time here, but will not be going back. It's just average food. Salad was good. Had the Philly cheese steak sandwich. They should rename it the Philly no cheese steak sandwich. When we walked in, they asked for my phone number. I asked why they needed my phone number. They said "in case you leave something at the table, we can call you". I rather doubt that. Never have been asked for my phone number unless I'm requesting a reservation, which by the way, they don't take. I said no to the phone number request and they sat us at a table. The phone number request must be so they can send text messages. Who needs more text spam in their life? Not our kind of place.

omg, great food! Chicken was very yummy! they were playing country music :) the server called my son little man :) extremely underrated! I love Rhode Island :)

I was so delighted to be able to return to Laura's recently! This time, I called to make a reservation and was told they don't take reservations over the phone. That is fine. My phone tells me the hostess spent 3 minutes on the phone with me; perhaps it is more efficient to just take the reservation and move on. It was a Wednesday, which means $6 martinis! My party tried the grave digger, strawberry (something?), and the raspberry lemon drop. They were very tasty and accompanied our food well. We also ordered the Mediterranean flatbread. This was a delicious combination of veggies. I do wish that the artichoke hearts were chopped into smaller, more pleasant pieces. One person in my party confused the artichoke for cauliflower, and was sorely disappointed (lol!). Our server was absolutely fabulous. She was very kind, quick, and attentive. I am happy that this was a more positive experience than last time. I look forward to coming back again!

Julia C was our server. What an excellent job she did with ease. The food was amazing again. We started out with appetizers. The coconut shrimp and nachos were delicious. I got the steak tips over risotto. The taste was amazing! The risotto filled my whole plate. Others had Mac & cheese filled with lobster pieces. The braised beef was delicious too. Julia kept checking on us to replenish our drinks and take away unnecessary dishes. At the end she brought out a piece of chocolate cake for the guest of honor. We all were shocked. I recommend to visit this restaurant!

This place is never without a wait, but they recently added the ability to join the waitlist on your way to the restaurant which is so helpful! They have a huge menu and an adorable interior. He menu is huge and the portions match. I highly suggest their wraps and salads. The prices are affordable for the amount of food you get. They recently added a surcharge for using a credit card though so cash is best here!

Got the chicken florentine flatbread as well as the chicken parm sandwich with onion rings. Everything tasted mediocre. The takeout order didn't come with utensils and was not packaged inside a bag. I had to hold the items individually. That's a red flag for me. Wait was around 20 minutes. The chicken florentine flatbread was very basic. The crust doesn't take like anything. Chicken is dry. Only good thing is that it's a large portion for the price. 5/10 The chicken parm is way too salty. This is the worst chicken parm I've had so far, and I've had over 10 different ones from other restaurants. The bread was grilled slightly and had a nice crisp, but it's ruined by the overwhelming saltiness of the sauce and chicken. The cheese didn't melt completely and had a rubbery, plasticky texture typical of low quality mozzarella cheese. I've included a photo of a bit of the cheese showing its stringy rubbery texture. Overall, I was really disappointed by this dish. 2/10 This restaurant is located really close to the Hampton Inn so it's convenient, but I would still suggest driving a bit further out to try another place. Seems to be a good place for drinks though.

Typical bar food, looks like the "only game in town", service was decent, atmosphere was cool, food fairly priced, nothing to "write home about".....

There's not a lot in the vicinity, and this restaurant has a nice casual ambiance with a large bar and lots of TV's. A cross between a sports bar and family restaurant. It was clean, lots of sunlight, and comfortable booth seating. Our party ordered a variety of dishes: steak sandwich, a Ramen dish and a Rhody Pizza. That pizza has hotdogs and mustard on it. Not your usual pizza. It was so odd, we just had to try it and well, it did taste a lot like a RI hotdog. So, if you have been dreaming of having your Rhody hot dog in a pizza form - here you go. The Raman dish was a huge serving. Flavorful broth, not spicy, lots of beef, onion and carrots and of course, hard boiled egg on top. Similar in appearance to an Asian noodle bowl, but with an American flavor pallet. The steak sandwich was large and lean with a nice amount of mushrooms and onions throughout on a soft roll. This is a casual dining spot with some interesting menu items along with the more expected items. Service was good. Plenty of parking around the building.

I've eaten here a few times now and I consistently order the same thing and it's so good every time. My favorite salad is the steak and blue cheese with red onions. They also have so many sides to choose from all inexpensive and so delicious. My favorites are the onion rings and sweet potato fries. You have to get the ranch from here and use it as a light dressing with the salad, it seriously is the best ranch I've never had. We normally get our food to go and I think they also offer delivery.

We went to Laura's for the first time yesterday and it was terrific. The ambiance is upscale neighborhood bar and grille. The waitstaff was friendly and efficient. We requested outside seating and it was excellent. The only negative was a contingent of Bryant graduates and family were celebrating loudly but graduation from college gets a hall pass. My wife got a salad with steak tips. The steak tips turned out to be four little steaks. They were grilled to perfection. A 9.5 out of 10. So if you're looking for a place to go to that is a little lively and serves great cocktails and food, you might want to give Laura's a try

Great spot to watch a game. Food is really good as well as the drink selection. Service is great and super friendly.

The food was amazing!! The hostesses were maintaining the front and very nice! Our waitress Madi is amazing! But i do think they need to upgrade there stalls.. no where to hang my bag and keys. Other than that this place is pretty cool! go check it out!

I really enjoyed this spot! I ordered the hot honey chicken sliders and it was delishhhhhhhh! It came with 4 sliders which was more than enough. I had to eat the other 2 later. My friend ordered the pulled pork sliders. I don't really eat pork, but it was also sooooo good! We ordered the Mexican street corn nachos as an app. It's pretty large and can feed like 4 people. Plus it was crave worthy!!! The staff was also really nice and the location is big and spacious as well. Will go again!

We were visiting the area and saw this restaurant packed with cars. Laura's Bar and Grill is a local business we discovered and seemingly enjoyed by the community. Our food was delicious and very reasonably priced. The friendly neighborhood atmosphere is something we really miss living in Orlando. We definitely would return and certainly recommend it!

Just okay. The place was jamming on Saturday night, there were no spots on their lot so we parked in the hotel lot. As for ambiance, it was super loud. The service was fine but the food lacked flavor, and was definitely microwave hot. I had the salmon. It was dry and at temperature only achieved on the microwave. My husband had the same comment about the heat of his pasta. We also had the Mexican street corn nachos. They were flavorless. Overall it was a disappointing experience.

Went to Laura's last week for dinner, our server Carrie was great, she gave us plenty of time to order and we started with the stuffies and then ordered the cheeseburger flatbread which was delicious and huge, two of us could barely finished it! Always a good time at this restaurant and will be back soon!
