Staff is always sweet with kind smiles while you wait for that delicious food to arrive at your table, or take home. Don't skip on this spot due to the smaller size or you'll regret it!

Food and service is just amazing. Reminds me of the food my grandmother makes. Bring a lot of my non-Portuguese friends here, and not a single person has disliked it. Cant wait to get to go back again :)

Some of the best Portuguese food in East Providence. Friendly, fun environment, always excellent service. Ordering take out is also very easy and convenient. Dining in is always a pleasure as well.

My parents & I discovered this place almost 12 years ago. One of those places that you pass and you are always curious about but never go in. Let me tell you this is the best Portuguese food you will find. I live in Fall River and have plenty of amazing Portuguese restaurants minutes away from my house. O Dinis takes the cake. Portions are huge, food is amazing and the staff is excellent. Worth the try of you are in the area!!!!

We go here often with friends and family it's a place where everybody knows your name the food's pretty good although it fluctuates in quality sometimes. it's a small cozy place and good prices. If you have a very large party call ahead

They have the best authentic Portuguese food in Rhode Island. I've been to Portugal many times and I was raised by my Portuguese grandparents. Because of this I know what amazing Portuguese food taste like. Also the portion size and the staff are incredible. I always recommend family and friends to come here.

Go here when you want to eat well, cheaply, and with amazing people around you. This small restaurant is the Cheers of neighborhood Portuguese food. The wait staff either know who you are or treat you like they do. Service was super fast and spot on. Neither of us knew what we wanted exactly, but our waitress handled it for us. "You want the soup. You eat this bread with this dip. Try these Portuguese beers. It's Saturday, rabbit is traditional." So, I went with the rabbit. Amazing! Bill got the seafood skewer. Also amazing. I will drive the three hours back to eat in this warm, cozy place with people who sure felt like family for at least a little while.

Went for lunch on Sunday, i just order fish sandwich, which was very delicious. I gave a 4 becsuse of the long wait there were 5 of us. I think they should get a larger place, since so many people, go there, and have to stand while waiting for a table. Maybe because it was on a Sunday.. but very friendly staff. Good food.

Went for the first time. It’s highly recommended by many ppl. The service was great. The food came fast and hot. The only disappointment was the frozen shoestring fries. I have never been to an “ authentic “ Portuguese restaurant and been served frozen anything!! I’m Portuguese and what a corner to cut.

You don't go to this place for look, but for the most delicious Portuguese food around and the most outstanding costumer service. If it is your first time trying out Portuguese food, feel free to ask the servers for suggestions. If you are a Portuguese foodie, you will have a hard time deciding what to eat.

This is a restaurant with great personality, the waitress is totally awesome, the store is decorated with old radios, which brings back memories of my Portuguese Grandfather, The food makes me feel like my Grandmother's cooking , full of love ! For me it's a reminder of where I came from ! Fresh bass was a special on the day we went. Whole fish breaded and lightly fried ! Excellent food ,and a wonderful time !

I've been to lots of Portuguese restaurants. One thing I always look for while dinning is an authentic tasting Portuguese food. The only word I had as I was having dinner here was, OMG!! AMAZING! Everything was absolutely amazing. Definitely will come back again and again.
