The quality of food and service has remained consistent for over 50 years, making it a popular choice for families and groups. While some reviewers found the interior dated, the delicious food, especially the seafood options, received high praise. Vegetarian options are plentiful, contributing to the diverse menu. Overall, Paisano's warmth and charm, coupled with its long-standing tradition of excellence, make it a standout choice for a satisfying Italian meal in the area.
Went here for dinner on a weeknight the place was relatively quiet. We started with a garlic shrimp appetizer and grilled calamari. Both were absolutely fantastic, really loved the grilled veggies with capers and onions the came with the grilled calamari.<br/ <br/ For dinner my friend and I shared a platter of shrimp and Portobello fettuccine with one of the best rosé sauces I've ever had and veal cutlets served with a mushroom sauce vegetables and pasta which was also good.<br/ <br/ The service was quite good prices are reasonabke we had absolutely no complaints about this place and we will definitely go back.<br/
There arent very many Italian Restaurants in North York anymore but Paisano's s still located on Willowdale after 50 years. My friend was immediately turned off by the interior of the restaurant but we all left satisfied with the quality of the food this place is stuck in time but nothing a good makeover and better lighting couldnt fix.
On August 22, 2015, I had the pleasure of dining at Paisano's with some old high school friends. Despite my usual preference for trying new restaurants, Paisano's has become a favorite spot for me over the years. The restaurant has been serving delicious Italian food for 50 years, originally at Bayview Village before relocating to Willowdale Avenue. The quality of food and service has remained consistent, even though the original owners are no longer present. Paisano's offers generous portion sizes at reasonable prices, making it a great choice for casual dining. My friend enjoyed the Chicken Parmigiana, while I indulged in my favorite Eggplant Parmigiana. Overall, it was a delightful dining experience at Paisano's once again.
I love this restaurant. I've been visiting for over 7 years. My parents have hosted many events here, whether it's a surprise birthday party or a confirmation celebration. The food is consistently amazing. They recently renovated the restrooms and added a handicap accessible option. The restaurant is always busy no matter the time, which is a testament to its quality. Don't be surprised if you have to wait on a Friday or Saturday night - it just shows how popular this place is. My go-to dishes are the Italian salad and the spicy penne. As a vegetarian, I appreciate that the menu is divided into vegetarian, meat, and fish options, whether it's pizza or pasta. This is a great choice for lunch or dinner.
Unplanned visit by a party of four on a Friday for dinner as our originally intended restaurant was packed.<br/ <br/ We ordered one Appetizer Platter, Seafood Creole, Shrimp Mussels, Chicken Parmigiano and Chicken Carbonara. Overall, the food was very good, the portions were filling and the seafood to pasta ratio was fair.<br/ <br/ We sat on the patio outside which was quite basic so, we can 't comment much on ambiance but, inside it looks more on the 'fancy ' side.<br/ <br/ Service was very friendly but, not flawless for sure; and, I would say that it was a bit slow for a not-so-busy night.
