Food was excellent and service was very attentive. I think prices are reasonable. Was disappointed that we had to sit in the other room on Valentine's Day...it was bright and no fireplace. No real decor. The main dining area was much nicer.

Went here for lunch with family & friends. They set up a buffet-style luncheon with chicken, pasta, salad, salmon, dessert cakes. The food was delicious, service was timely & professional.

Octoberfest special terrific. Chicken liver, sauerbraten, red cabbage and potato pancake all excellent. Even the pretzel before the dinner was great. Service excellent. Price very reasonable for 3 courses.

Had a private party of 50 and they opened just for us. They did an outstanding job. I'd love to go for dinner when I'm back in Hampton Bays. Parking is easy and the restrooms were clean and nice.

We had a great experience here. Very old school , and the older woman who was on the floor was a little overbearing. Our service was great and they accommodated us without a reservation. Our server was amazing. The seating is very open.Kid-friendliness: I wouldn't bring young children here.
Food was very good but service was extremely slow. The waitress disappeared for long periods of time and we think that was because she was only 1 of 2 servers working that night.

I used to eat here many years ago. (Many). We found ourselves in the neighborhood and had to go in. Our waiter was Frank and he was so friendly and attentive. (Thanks for the Netflix recommendation ? ). I ordered spaghetti and meatballs and to my surprise they were actually amazing. Definitely homemade. Hopefully we will be back soon!

We unexpectedly found ourselves at Villa Paul this rainy afternoon. The service was beyond commendable, from our waiter to the bussers, we were doted on and treated very well. The food was excellent and plentiful. We've wanted to dine here for quite some time and we were so glad that we finally had the opportunity to do so!! We will be back for sure!!!

Villa Paul is the best and perhaps last of Nassau County's "Fine Dining" restaurants. It is actually NOT an Italian restaurant, in the traditional sense, which is a good thing. Rather, Villa Paul is a very fine, "Continental" restaurant. Sort of a survey course of European Culinary Traditions, mostly French and Italian, tweaked to American tastes. They've been doing it for over 50 years and Nobody, does it better. Their Roasted Long Island Duck, served stuffed, crisp and with homemade Cherry Sauce is a standout and worth a trip on its own. Their seafood, locsl Flounder etc is clearly well sourced. The service is professional "Old School" To top it all off, they bring you amazing desserts like the famous Peanut Brickle Cheese Cake and Classics like amazing tartuffo, pistachio mousse and Creme Brulee, etc. The prices are not cheap but compared to NYC, where I'm from, are an absolute bargain given the quality, and service. Bonus: the wine list offers extremely well priced bottle options and top notch reds and whites at $12/glass! If you are a "Lawn Guyland" mook in a Jets jersey who does not own a sport coat, a shrill loud pretentious "real Housewife of da Hamtinz"type or someone more accustomed to $8 Groupon buffets in Flushing ( and dress the part) perhaps this is not your place. If however you are seeking the last of the old school South Fork Fine Dining American Bounty Establishments, get dressed up, head to Villa Paul and Enjoy!
