Best Italian food I’ve ever had in a restaurant. You have to try the gnocchi. Unfortunately, it isn’t always on the menu but when it is you must try it. Never disappointed with any of their dishes. Great dining experience.

Christmas Party Time Again... Pauline's graciously agreed to open on a Monday to accommodate our party. I had never been here so I was excited. I came through rain and heavy traffic from Bensonhurst, Brooklyn. I arrived half an hour early. The place was dark. I did not know they were opening just for us. I parked and waited in the car. Soon a knock at my window and a man asked if I was there for the party and invited me to come in. This was the start of an amazing adventure. As I waited for people to arrive Patrick, a seasoned part of the staff shared his stories of Bensonhurst and we laughed and remembered how it was. He invited me to taste the bread. I did and asked him where it came from. It was crusty on the outside and chewy on the inside. He said they got daily shipments from Brooklyn. I knew that was the case. As guests arrived they added tables to accommodate the extra people. This restaurant is beautifully decorated. The tables were set perfectly.
After eating the bread, Patrick told me to slow down. There was a lot of food coming. One plate after another arrived, each cooked to perfection. The baked clams were mini clams and so good. The calamari was also delicious. There was fresh Mozzarella that melted in your mouth. There was a fried cheese ball that was beyond delicious. Then the soup with sausage followed by a salad. The choice of entrees was just perfect. My Rib Eye was cooked to perfection. The Lobster tasted amazing.
Then came the Italian Pastries and a double espresso. Need anyone say more?
Pauline's is a Tiny Gem, bringing the amazing flavors and culture of Italy (via Bensonhurst). A big thank you for a wonderful evening. Everyone had an amazing time. Your staff is amazing. Barre From Brooklyn....

So I mainly order online and all I can say is amazing and the packaging is perfect never any spills and the cardboard in between the dinners is a great idea 10/10

2nd time here and very disappointed. Food was very bland and watery. Portion was small and spread all over plate to make it look like more. Won't becoming back, better food elsewhere. Overpriced for what you get. The only thing good was the service.

Nice. Driving by, you would think it's just another restaurant. It's actually a little hidden gem and BYOB is a nice touch.Definitely worth a return trip.
