Paisano's - Topeka

I've always been a fan of this restaurant, and although it recently changed ownership, the menu remains the same, with a few tweaks in the preparation. Some of the dishes are slightly different...

The waitress was friendly and well-informed about the food's flavors, even giving a heads-up about the lightly spiced fragrant sauces. However, she didn't seem to have much knowledge about the wine selection.

I make it a point to visit this restaurant whenever I'm in town, and it never fails to impress. This time, my coworker and I stopped by on a Tuesday, and they offered an all-you-can-eat special...

I really miss those days in Lawrence, but what’s 40 miles on I-70 when you can enjoy everything this place has to offer? I came here in loving memory of my aunt, who used to eat here twice a day when she visited for horse shows from Nebraska. The new owners have truly stepped up; they handled the staffing shortage last Saturday incredibly well! The food was excellent, the staff was friendly, and the place was always clean. Despite the waiting time, it was definitely worth it. Thank you!

We didn't have a reservation, but they managed to find us a table. The staff informed us that the food would come out slowly that day due to a power outage. Some items on the menu were unavailable, as indicated by markings on the table. Our waitress was incredibly kind and attentive. Unfortunately, they had run out of pepper for the pizza and sage for seasoning. I felt sorry for the waitress, as I'm sure she was dealing with some unhappy customers, but despite the setbacks, the food was absolutely amazing and delicious. It's a charming little place with very friendly staff. The wait for the food was definitely worth it, and the breadsticks and salad were fantastic!
