Nothing against the restaurant itself just I didn't like the charcoal taste so it's on me really. Staff were great

North Kingstown restaurant is not as good as the one located on Providence RI.

This was my first time trying coal fired pizza and it was not disappointing at all. I had the pepperoni and Italian sausage pizza and it was delicious. Along with the trivia they have in the restaurant, it is a very enjoyable and relaxing atmosphere.
The successful Downcity Providence eatery opened this second outpost in North Kingstown, with a nearly identical menu and prices. If you don't feel like dropping a Hamilton on a martini, start with a draft beer: Harpoon for $5 is a good deal. We enjoy the coal-fired wings, topped with sea salt, rosemary and roasted onions, as a starter --- a smart twist on an appetizer standard. The atmosphere is bright and friendly with a big square bar and open kitchen, where you can sit and watch your meal being made in the 900-degree, coal-fired oven. Like a good New York-style pizza, the high heat produces a thin but fluffy crust with a hint of char on the outside; unlike a good New York pizzeria, the $15 you pay for the cheapest pie on the menu doesn't get you a big, round pizza but rather a middling oval. If you're not in the mood for pizza come dinnertime, you're a bit out of luck: sandwiches are only offered at lunchtime, and other than that, it's pretty much appetizers and salads. That said, you have a choice of more than a dozen pizza toppings. Butterscotch pudding is the most unusual of the desserts, and while this strikes us as more of a pizza-and-beer place, there's a pleasingly long wine list, too.
