Was told we couldn't get dessert and to chug our half bottle of wine because the private party who booked the whole restaurant arrived 30 mins early. Us along with 4 other tables were given the boot. No notice. Just the check when we finished our entree.
It is an authentically old world Italian trattoria. It has a gentile quality and the menu concentrates on flavor and excellence rather than trendiness. No, it's not a red sauce kind of place. It's just so much more.
Paola's has been a family favorite for over 30 years. The mozzarella and Bolognese and carciofi can't be beat. The boss nova music is lovely, but at a good level so one can easily hear conversations. Service is always gracious and attentive . The combination of the forgoing makes for a warm and delightful evening every time.
