You know you have been waiting for the grand re-opening. And oh, is it worth the wait. Kitchen 37 at Culinary Affair is so, so good! My new favorite dish -- so far -- is the smoked grilled shrimp. The sauce that comes with it is honestly crave-worthy. Add a side of the pastine & veggie couscous and it makes a perfect lunch! (See photo) My husband loved the fried chicken sandwich which was a very generous portion. (See photo) And, the new décor is inviting and fresh, while the family-friendly, welcoming charm of Chefs John and Michael, plus their staff, endure to make this local favorite your go-to for takeout or dine-in. We can't wait to try all the new options on the creative menu!

The food here is very good. They have a great chilli, not exactly what you expect and the steak bruceta sandwich with sweet potato French fries, delish

Culinary has been my favorite restaurant since I was a kid! This is my go-to comfort food. I was so excited to hear they were doing a remodel and couldn’t wait for them to reopen. Initially I was not super enthusiastic about their new menu, as I said before their food was perfect the way it was. However, I ordered delivery from them tonight and it turns out they do still have many of the favorites I need (on a rainy day like tonight is). It’s delicious as always. I have to give them credit - the delivery service was amazing. It’s so convenient and really nice to have. Also, I noticed they cut down on their plastic waste and they’re using more environmentally friendly packaging. We ordered the lentils, pink sauce pasta with chicken cutlet, and the new arugula salad. I like the salad although I might think the original with beans and mozzarella pearls is a tad bit better. I can’t wait to try more new menu items and dine in!!!

First time back since the remodel. Good food as before. Miss the potato pancakes. Different atmosphere inside from before. Glad they are still open.

Excellent food! My lunch was tasty and reasonably priced. Kitchen area is clean and lots of made from scratch dishes. Check out Culinary Affair in our October issue of The Rhode Island Wave and the video that goes with it. :) Tanya Signore The RI Wave

Culinary Affair has been around for many years and I have had the pleasure of eating in, taking out, and catering for years of Christmas parties at my home. You are family. So happy you guys are back and love the new concept and food. Keep moving forward. Hoping the best is yet to come. Can't wait for my takeout this week.

Since they reopened we have been wanting to give it a try. The night we went we were glad to see that they had the gemelli on special. We were surprised to see that they now serve food in cardboard like bowls, and plastic plates. The pasta sauce soaking the bowl made it very flimsy and started to ruin the taste. We got the brisket too but it came out very dry. The new concept is more like a deli, no waitresses, plastic plates and plastic utensils. Can’t see dining in there again for dinner but will be on the look out for some specials I can order to go.

As the old saying goes; “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.” Before this MAJOR change I would go to Culinary 1-2 days per week. You must give the people what they want. People want burgers, chicken dishes, steak dishes, and the former pasta dishes and FRESH BREAD with oil that were once served before this change. Other than the changes, the staff are still their happy, cheerful selves and a pleasure to talk to.
