Cafe Nuovo sits at the Gondola Landing on Providence's Riverwalk, offering commanding waterside city views. The casually elegant restaurant serves contemporary American cuisine with fresh seasonal flavors, and its dessert creations are particularly noteworthy. The extensive menu draws from regional American, European, Asian, and Island influences, with specialties like Faroe Islands Salmon, Duck Breast Confit, and housemade pasta. Alfresco dining is available in season, and the full bar complements the upscale experience.

Reservations are recommended, and free valet parking is provided evenings. The venue is popular for special celebrations and private functions. It's a fitting stop for a date night or a celebratory dinner, with a view that rivals the food. If you're exploring downtown Providence, CAV Restaurant is another local spot worth checking out.
