GRILL 262,
262 South Water St., Providence, 751-3700.Grill 262 proclaims itself a brasserie, which, as the menu explains, is "louder and showier than a bistro." In its effort to attract such a showy crowd, the place opened earlier this year with a cigar lounge downstairs, complete with walk-in humidor. The elegant bar area has 30 beers on tap. Upstairs, the decor strikes a decided Yankee note. A menu high point is the mixed sausage grill ($14.25), which includes duck, turkey and garlic sausages served atop a tangy braised red cabbage. The spit-roasted half chicken ($13.75) was also succulent and flavorful.
