Where can I eat with a group in Providence?

A moderately-priced casual restaurant for dinner with coworkers within walking distance from the Rhode Island Convention Center in Providence?

I know there is a vegetarian in the group, and probably half are drinkers and the other half not. It's dinner after a conference, so not really a working dinner, more relaxing and decompressing after a long day of travel and information.

Some of our favorites downcity that meet your needs are:

Trinity Brewhouse
AS220 Bar and FOOd
Cuban Revolution

FOOd in particular has a large number of veg and vegan options. It is very casual, but a nice place to hang out.

Union Station Brewery is a suggestion, only a 5 min walk from the Convention Center.

If you take a right onto Sabin leaving the convention center and cross I-95 you'll be either on Broadway or Atwells (Sabin forks), both of which have many great restaurants. On Broadway I'd recommend Julian's, and on Atwells it's hard to go wrong (Venda Ravioli is very good, for instance). Casserta's and the aforementioned Bob and Timmy's, which is on the corner of Spruce and Dean, one block away from Atwells, are both superb pizzerias, even by Providence's high standards).
