Just bumping this up to record for posterity that if you happen to be in Providence, be sure to get over to Atwells Ave. It's an old Italian neighborhood that's hung on to a bunch of restaurants serving very good Italian-American food. I had some excellent veal and very good lobster ravioli at a couple of these places. There's also a bakery that claims to have been started in 1916 that has an eye-popping array of cakes, pastries, cookies, etc.
It's a nice area for soaking in that old Mafia-boss-hangout feeling.
