    If you’re on a work trip and need a reliable cut, look no further. I found this no-frills, old-school gem nearby and Roberto managed to squeeze me in on a Saturday.
    Roberto has owned this shop since 1979 and he is an absolute master of his craft—I got a solid cut and an amazing fade.

    I was visiting the city and found Roberto and his shop. He is a gentleman and a genuine, professional, old school barber. I felt right at home. Great haircut and reasonable price. Had a great conversation. I will return for sure on my next trip. This is the neighborhood barber experience we all remember fondly and is increasingly hard to find.

    I ended up at Roberto's after a few other barbershops in the area told me they couldn't accommodate a same day cut - and I'm very glad I did. Roberto was able to get me in immediately - and did an excellent job. He clearly has an eye for detail - and gave me a great cut. If I ever need a haircut again in Providence - I'm coming straight here.
