ive a shoutout to Sean. He and his team were very accommodating and worked hard to ensure the event went exactly as we wanted.
Our September 2024 wedding was a dream thanks to Cafe Nuovo and their amazing team. The space is beautiful and the food is outstanding, our guests are still raving about it. The en...
tire team was a pleasure to work with and the service was top notch. Sean was a pleasure to work with during the planning process even given our short timeline. Our ceremony was originally going to be outside by the river but rain moved it inside to the rotunda which was beautiful and intimate. We are so grateful that we decided to have our wedding at Cafe Nuovo, it was a beautiful day! Highly recommend for any couples looking for a unique and romantic city venue with amazing food.
If you are looking for a wedding in beautiful downtown Providence, there is no better place than Cafe Nuovo. Our wedding day was absolutely perfect, and from start to finish they w...
orked hard to customize the wedding to what we wanted. From their cuisine, to service, and their attention to detail, our wedding day could not have been better. The staff performed wonderfully, and the atmosphere is elegant and classy. The food is also AMAZING, and you will not find better food at any other wedding venue. Our guests are still talking about how delicious the food and drinks were. We will recommend Cafe Nuovo for years to come!
Cafe Nuovo could not have been a more perfect venue for our November wedding. The staff was beyond amazing and catered to our every need. The manager, Sean, was wonderful to work w...
ith throughout the whole process and worked with us to craft an extraordinary menu, thoughtful timelines and a spectacular occasion. We hosted the ceremony, cocktail hour and reception all on site and each individual portion of the day sparkled.
Our guests were delighted with the food, ambiance and attention to detail that went into the event. I highly recommend hosting your event at Cafe Nuovo. We were absolutely wowed and look forward to our next trip to the restaurant as husband and wife.
If your going for a city wedding this is it. Cafe Nuovo delivers in every way. Firstly they have an amazing rotunda which is the main stage for all the weddings. Marble dance floor...
so no need to rent. When nighttime hits the room sparkles. Up lighting by the band amazing. From start to finish the wait staff who are not rented in they are actual servers who work in the restaurant take care of you. The food is stellar. Everything is off the menu and the order is taken that day not prior which is a massive help. I recommend the shrimp and scallops dish and the risotto crab. Passed appetizers are amazing especially the crispy sushi and crab and lobster spoons. Raw bar was presented on a gondola which goes with the theme of this restaurant as the gondolas are outside awaiting on the river. Drinks are very reasonably priced also. Can't say enough good things! Lots of photos on Instagram of the rotunda room all done up under the hashtag cafe nuovo.
I already loved Cafe Nuovo as a restaurant, and they did an amazing job as a wedding venue as well! The rotunda was beautiful, the staff was great, the manager was so flexible and ...
easy to work with, and the food was delicious! No need to rent chairs, linens, or a dance floor! It also borders the Providence Riverwalk and Waterplace Park, so we were able to take photos there, and it just happened to be Waterfire night, so we were able to take some nighttime photos with a unique and incredible background. Can't thank Dimitri, Sean, and the staff enough!
We chose this place because the location, right in downtown Providence on the water, and the food, which is amazing. We were in the rountunda, the room outside the restaurant. The ...
room its self is just simple and beautiful with marble floors. Throughout the planning process the manager, Sean, was great and very helpful and friendly. Overall we are so happy this is the place we picked. The food and service were amazingly great. We couldn't have been happier. Our guests keep telling us its the best food they've ever had a wedding. If looking for an alternative to the hotel scene I would highly reccommend. Another good thing is they have an outside area where you can do your ceremony. We couldn't because we got married in November and it was just too cold.
