“Funky place with interesting food”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 November 2012

Good, fast food in a small restaurant. Looked like most people stopped by to get lunch to go. My colleague and I ate lunch there and were able to hold a business meeting. There were plenty of vegan options, and the food was satisfying. Would recommend this to anyone looking for quick food that's not "fast food"!

“One of the best artist spaces in the country”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2011

AS220 really has it all--multiple gallery spaces, a performance space that has multiple events almost every night of the week, a great restaurant and bar, community classes, workshops for students, an open darkroom and print studio, artist living spaces, and so much more. It should be at the top of the "things to do in Providence" list because of the... More
