Summer is coming, and that means meat is on the mind. It’s the time of year barbecue pits open up, folks bring their grills out and for those who leave the meat to the professionals, a new restaurant in Tiverton is open with an emphasis on this quintessential seasonal protein.
The Sakonnet River Grille’s menu centers around slow-roasted meats and char-grilled steaks, including slow-roasted prime rib on Fridays and Saturdays. “We also offer slow-roasted baby back ribs made with our house-made barbecue sauce, which has become a staple of the menu and is a must-try item,” says owner Dave Gorman. “Fresh, local seafood, pasta, chicken and a wide variety of appetizers and sandwiches fill out the remainder of our menu.”
The restaurant business runs in the Gorman family. Dave’s parents ran an ice cream shop in Scituate and The Roast House in the Swansea Mall. In 1998 the family opened Four Corners Grille in Tiverton, which still operates today. For Dave, “Being raised in the business and observing how much joy comes from seeing a family enjoying a birthday party, a couple celebrating a wedding anniversary or a family re-uniting over dinner…. all of life’s special events, I could never picture doing anything else.”
The Gorman family loves Tiverton, and was excited to open another restaurant in town. Considering how much they love the neighborhood, the Sakonnet River Grille reflects that sensibility. Could life be any sweeter? As a matter of fact it could, and that would be by sipping on their Peanut Butter Cup Martini to end – or begin – any meal. 534 Main Road, Tiverton. 401-816-6944, www.SakonnetRiverGrille.com
