Crime and Cuisine on Federal Hill

Преглед

A food tour with a felonious twist!

The Federal Hill neighborhood of Providence is one of its hottest destinations, home to some of the best Italian food in the world. This tour will give you a smorgasbord of its best bites and drinks, from fine wines to family recipes passed down through generations. Come hungry!

Every guest will also get a memento from their time on the Hill to take home with them. Spoiler alert: it's delicious!

The Hill was also home to some historic characters who dabbled on the wrong side of the law. Follow the intrigue of State v. Patriarca, when a future mayor took on a mob boss; learn about the corruption which brought Rhode Island's banking system to its knees in the '90s, and about a raid on an illegal dice game that sent a Providence Police Officer through a second-story window.

Guests under 21 will not be served alcohol on this tour.

Great introduction to both the history and the food of Federal Hill. Our guide was knowledgeable, projected her voice well, and kept us in the shade on a hot day.

I really wish I could have given this a 5-star rating, but honestly, the tour was less than spectacular. As a Providence local who knows the good spots and the not-so-great ones—the authentic and non-authentic—this tour only took us to two decent stops; the rest were disappointing. With my family visiting, I thought this would be a fun opportunity since I've never done a tour like this in Providence. Unfortunately, it didn't take us to any of the REAL Federal Hill Italian gems like Andino's, Constantino's, or The Old Canteen. The first location was particularly bad—they claimed their meatballs were homemade daily and a specialty, but as a 100% Italian, I can tell you they were store-bought and tasted like rubber bouncy balls. This restaurant has had issues before when it was Zooma, and it seems to have gotten worse. Additionally, the tour listing promises 6 stops, but we only went to 5. It also advertises filling portions—what a joke! We got tiny tastes, which is fine, but stop with the false advertising. I expected to be full by the end, but instead, I had to take my family on our own food tour of Federal Hill right after. The tour guide read from a script the whole time, which detracted from the authenticity of the experience.

Hello Tom- Thank you for taking the time to write a review for the Federal Hill Crime & Cuisine Tour. I'm sorry that you had a lackluster experience- the way we choose our vendors has to do as much with their cuisine as their ability to handle regular large groups- it sounds like we didn't go to your favorites, and I apologize for that. I will attest that the food at Appia is always very good when I eat there! I'd be curious to know which stops you felt were decent and which you found disappointing. Our tour lists five restaurant stops, in addition to one quick stop in DePasquale Square, which is not a restaurant. I can understand that a quick glance at the list can make this confusing. Additionally, I personally find that the helpings are generous, but I can also understand that being up for interpretation. We are a small but growing company, and a few of our guides are new and still in the process of committing the script to memory. I apologize that this may have affected your experience, but hope you understand that the practice (and this feedback) is what will make them better. Please reach out to me at [email protected] if you'd like to give us another chance, we'd love the opportunity to have you come back and try again. Sincerely, Bradly

The tour guide was knowledgeable and provided good insight to the history of organized crime on Federal Hill. It was also a great way to explore a variety of restaurants. The food and wine were great and servings were very generous.
