Kerrie and I stopped by Sparky's Coney Island Systems in East Providence on our way home from the mall last week. I had driven by the location several times before and wondered what the dogs were like. Well, I'm happy to report that they were worth the wait, although I wish I had indulged in the warm atmosphere of the shop sooner. Although the building itself sits at an awkward angle to the street, the interior harkens back to a simpler time where corner cafes and restaurants offered citizens a chance to socialize and communicate. There's a retro counter with chromed stools as well as wood paneling circa 1970. These elements combined with our super-friendly waitress added up to a truly positive experience. We'll definitely be going back before the summer's over. The coney dogs were definitely up to par as well.
The Final Word: 5 Stars
