" I recently visited Paisano's for a lunch date with friends. The decor was charming, and the service was prompt. We started with calamari which was tender and flavorful. I ordered the oxtail ragu, which was delicious but a tad rich for my liking. They also charge for bread on the side, which I found a little unusual for an Italian place. Overall, I enjoyed my time and would likely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" Paisano's is a gem! I dined here on a recent weekend and loved every minute. From the delicious starter of eggplant rollatini to the melt-in-your-mouth branzino, the food was outstanding. The service was impeccable; the staff went out of their way to ensure we had a great experience. I'm definitely planning on returning to try their famous desserts next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just got back from a family dinner at Paisano's, and it was an amazing experience! Everything from the service to the atmosphere made for a memorable night. I had the seafood linguini—really authentic and packed full of flavor. We also shared the desserts which were delightful, especially the crème brûlée. Highly recommend for family gatherings or intimate dining! Will definitely return. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Paisano's was mixed. The interior is lovely and creates a comfortable dining experience, but my meal fell flat. I had the chicken francese, which was decent but not memorable. The service was slow during peak hours, but the staff was pleasant. I did like the dessert, especially the tiramisu, which made up for the main course. I may give it another try. " (*Curated Review*)

" Celebrating a milestone at Paisano's was a great decision! Our group had a variety of dishes from short ribs to crab meat ravioli, and the flavors did not disappoint. The ambiance was classy, adding to the celebration. I also loved their selection of wines available byob, which made it quite special. The only downside was the price tag on some items, which felt a bit steep. However, the quality justified it somewhat. I highly recommend this for special occasions! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visiting Paisano's was truly a delightful experience! The atmosphere set a romantic vibe, perfect for our date night. I ordered the lobster ravioli with sambuco cream sauce, and it was the best I've ever tasted—truly authentic! The service was attentive without being intrusive. I can't wait to return to try more dishes. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a memorable evening at Paisano's! The ambiance was inviting. We especially loved the calamari and opted for the homemade spaghetti as a main dish with meatball. It was well-prepared and portioned. The dessert selection is enticing; I would suggest leaving room for it! Our waiter was kind, though could have checked in a bit more. Overall, definitely recommend if you're looking for a nice Italian meal! " (*Curated Review*)
