Celestial Cafe Restaurant Review: Exeter’s culinary scene generally revolves around family restaurants and diners. Celestial Cafe, located in the Oak Harbour Village Shopping Center on Route 2, is the exception. The dining room and lounge décor speak more of Providence or Boston than farms or forests, but the proximity to Rhode Island’s de facto “bread basket” isn’t wasted. Local produce features prominently on the menu and in the special farm-to-table dinners served each month: Schartner Farms sweet potatoes and Narragansett Creamery ricotta in the sweet potato wonton appetizer, for example, and local oysters, clams and scallops in the Rhody Risotto. The kitchen’s reach sometimes exceeds its grasp: the right ingredients and recipes are there, but the preparations lack a certain “oomph” --- everything is good, but nothing is especially memorable. The menu samples dishes from all over the globe, so Celestial is a good destination if you can’t decide between Italian or seafood, Asian or Cajun. South County residents can get a big-city meal in the country, while adventurous diners may want to stop in and see what all the local buzz is about. |
