    Paesanos Italian Restaurant – A Perfect Afternoon! 🍝🍕🍷 Had an amazing afternoon at Paeseanos Italian Restaurant with my girls squad! From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect. We started with the bruschetta, which was fresh and full of flavor, followed by a delicious salad that hit the spot. The pizzas and pasta were beyond amazing—so authentic and full of rich, hearty flavors! 🍕🍝 And let’s talk about dessert—absolutely heavenly! 🍰😍 Every bite was a sweet delight, the perfect way to end our meal. The service was top-notch, and our server Tiffany was beyond wonderful—attentive, friendly, and made the experience even better! Highly recommend this place for a cozy, delicious Italian meal! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐✨

    Got seated outside; very nice view of the river giving a nice ambiance. Our server made some nice wine recommendations, they have a unique wine selection. Service was alright, our server was pretty occupied with a lot of tables. Food is ok. For appetizers, get the sampler for two if you want to try different items (calamari, garlic shrimp, fried artichokes). Crab stuffed salmon is alright, pasta is tasty but the filling is more of a bread-stuffing with some crab. Lobster ravioli is large but I don’t think it’s made in-house fresh. Being on the Riverwalk, it’s a convenient dining option.

    I booked a reservation here for my wife’s Birthday and it couldn’t have been better. From the moment we walked in, we were treated like VIP’s with them acknowledging my wife’s birthday and answering questions about their extensive wine menu. The lobster ravioli was exceptional and worthy of another visit soon. They also provided tiramisu after the meal with a happy birthday topper. Our waitress was so attentive despite how busy they were and felt like a good friend by the end of our experience. We will definitely return soon.

    It was a wonderful experience. We reserved a day ahead and we sat down immediately when we arrived. We sat outside right by the river. The server did an excellent job. Will go back again

    The service was excellent and Jacob, our server, was very helpful and prompt and friendly. The patio is very overcrowded with tables so poor servers have little room to maneuver. The food is very reasonably priced and overly generous in portion size. However, it is typical chain type Italian. Don’t go here if you are looking for fabulous Italian cooking. Sauces are heavy tomato. Eggplant Parmesan is two thick cut fried pieces over spaghetti with lots,of tomato sauce. Good but not great.
