Reviews
Iggy's Doughboys and Chowder House won Best Clam Shack in Rhode Island Monthly's readers' poll and is in its Hall of Fame for winning more than 10 times. Gayot calls Iggy's fried dough "sinfully tasty" and the Providence Journal places it in Rhode Island's quintessential clam shacks. Yelpers give both the Warwick and Narragansett locations a 3.5-star average.
- It's got all the chowder-house usuals, but its calling card is the servings by the dozen and half-dozen of its doughboys…The fried fish is splendid: hot tufts of flaky fish steam from the plate as you break into the crust. – Meredith Ford, Providence Journal

About Iggy's Doughboys and Chowder House
In 2011, CBS's the Early Show lauded Iggy's Doughboys and Chowder House for having the best clam chowder in America. Perhaps that’s because each batch is made with clam juice instead of water, with clams added at the very end to ensure tenderness. Or maybe it’s because owner David Gravino whips up the Manhattan-style red chowder using his mother's special recipe. Whatever the cause, the effect is a zesty stew flecked with celery, pepper, garlic, dill, and basil that people have been happy to stand in line for.
Recently celebrating their 25th anniversary, Iggy's, which has also been graced with a recent visit from Nick Jonas and Miss Universe 2012, also dishes out clam cakes, stuffed quahogs, and landlubbing entrees such as burgers and BLTs in a dining room overlooking Narragansett Bay. Housemade root beer and raspberry-lime sodas complement each meal, alongside doughboys—pastries topped with ice cream, cool whip, and powdered sugar. In addition to the main location, there’s a seasonal outpost in Narragansett proper that stays open from March until Columbus Day, the holiday which celebrates Christopher Columbus's discovery of a new world inhabited solely by fish.
