Yankee Magazine – Best Of New England
FAT BELLY’S PUB, Warwick & East Greenwich
Yes, you’ll find “chowdah,” wings, nachos, and beer. But you’ll also want to sample the New York-style pizza and pasta dishes (Warwick) and the grilled pizza and paninis (East Greenwich). Both serve marvelous Black Angus burgers. 254 Old Forge Road, Warwick, 401-884-2112; 241 Main St., East Greenwich, 401-884-3434; fatbellyspub.com
The Phoenix Best 10′ Winner
Fat Belly’s Pub is the creation of Scott Parker, who opened the place last May. Parker was the chef/proprietor behind Sophia’s Tuscan Grille, in Warwick, and its to-live-for linguine with red clam sauce. He sold the restaurant so he could raise his family with the reduced stress of a smaller place.
On our visit, he was chatting up the room in his kitchen whites, and when we told him we’d ordered a grilled pizza, he insisted we try his New York style version, for which he apprenticed at a Long Island pizzeria. more
