This is one of my favorite Italian restaurant and I have been to this place a few times now. I am vegetarian and this place has many options for starters and entrees. I love pesto dishes and I like my food very spicy. They can make the dishes the way you like it. It’s very tasty food. Friendly service.
It’s mostly crowded whenever I have been there for dinner (generally on a weekend). The clientele is mostly local and that’s adds to the charm of the place.
Dietary restrictions: Plenty of vegetarian options.
Parking: Lots of free parking available

A humble, no-BS Italian restaurant like you can find in most corners of the East Coast. The food is excellent, what a joy.

Outstanding service and food. Traditional Italian food passed down from one generation to the next. Italian Pot Roast and Clam Fettuccine are incredible. Also a big fan of the Chicken Picatta.

We are local and had been disappointed by Il Fornaio, Tomatina, Melo's, etc. We used to go to Mary's Pizza Shack in Napa after they closed in Walnut Creek. Il Pavone was a big pleasant surprise. The food is really good and I could taste the garlic in the sauce.👌🏻 The soup of the day lentil soup. It was delicately spiced by the celery. Overall a great experience. We are definitely going here and saving on a long trip to Napa.

I liked this place.... The pizza was delicious with homemade sausage and onion, free refills on drinks and great service... attentive but not pushy.

I’ve been eating at Il Pavone regularly for eight years and it’s been an unadulterated heavenly experience each time. True Italian fine dining, prepared with care and excellence. The house made raviolis are elegant pillows, the pasta carbonara is TDF. Entrees such as Petrale Sole or their daily specials rival any Italian restaurant. Friendly staff, excellent wine list and full bar make for a memorable meal. AND their freshly made pizza was a pleasant surprise. MOLTO BENE!
We live about 15 miles away and still try to get there every couple of weeks. My wife is Italian and loves the food and the people, as I do. If you like authentic Italian food and friendly people, I highly recommend IL Pavone.

The atmosphere is nice, although outdated, but the food is sorely lacking in flavor, quantity and temperature. Especially for the horrific prices. Sad decline and takeover of a new careless generation.

Everything was great. We were a party of 5. We had cocktails, Caesar salad, dinner, wine, dessert & cappuccino. We were in no rush and had plenty of time to talk. FYI~ there is a 3.5% charge for using a credit card.
