Black-Owned Restaurants in Providence, Rhode Island

Featuring everything from Southern soul food to traditional African and Caribbean cuisines, Providence is home to a wide variety of Black-owned restaurants, food trucks and even a tea shop.

Enjoy one of The District's signature pizzas for dinner or indulge your sweet tooth at brunch with the decadent Tres Leches French Toast and a Spiked Hot Chocolate Flight. Or check out The Village PVD for an authentic Nigerian meal. We recommend the Jollof Rice — served vegetarian or with your choice of meat.
