Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews

PAON Restaurant & Wine Bar delights with "exceptional food" and "impeccable service." Known for its traditional French cuisine, patrons praise the escargot, pheasant, and seabass. The extensive wine selection and charming patio dining add to its allure. While some note the ambiance could be brighter, the overall experience remains "superb."

Disappointed. Second time my expensive steak was overcooked. Not happy, but did not send back because I was not going to ruin the birthday celebration with the family. Not sure what is happening here. PAON has been one of our favorites the last few years. The salads were delicious…

From the very friendly greeting to our departure was a good experience. The food was delightful. We had duck confit and sea bass after a shared salad. Everything was delicious.

Our waiter got one of our orders wrong. And to make it worse, he lied and said it'll be ready in 2 minutes, so we waited. It came out in about 7 minutes. The other food was cold already when we started eating. We only eat here for special occasions, so it kind of ruined the moment. My thought is that they should have restarted our orders or at least reheated the other food. But they still gave my wife their complimentary birthday dessert, so I guess it's okay.

This was our first dining experience at PAON Restaurant and Wine Bar and it definitely will not be our last. This restaurant has a great ambience and the entire staff is dedicated to insuring that every detail, not matter how small or large, is not overlooked. The menu has many choices that will more than satisfy any diner looking for a casual or a gourmet meal.

No kids menu, few vegetarian options. Other than these two important points for our family, food was good and service was fine.
