Amazing. Great food, great service, and charming Italian atmosphere. My husband and I each ordered a dish off of the specials menu, and they both were super flavorful. Our server was very attentive and friendly. He also had what seemed like assistant servers helping him which was nice, and we felt well taken care of. We have traveled to Italy as a couple in the past and the hospitality and delicious food at Pasqualone's made us feel like we were back in Italy for dinner tonight. Thank you!

The owner greeted our family of 9 at the door and started selling "Family style". The waiter did the same. We bit-big mistake. For the table, we had two appetizers....Antiposto which was lame and stuffed meatballs that were great. Then four main courses...lasagna, a pasta dish, chix parm and chix Marsala. Lasagna was really good. The sauce is good. Marsala was mediocre at best. Chix parm was 10 small pieces- I'd equate it to 2 1/2 Orders if ordered non-family style. Our bill with drinks and 2 desserts was $140 a person. Take the drinks and desserts out of it and we were still at @$100 a person. If we all got the most expensive dish on the menu, it would not have been more than $50 a person. Our Fault ---we never asked about pricing for family style....And it's not on the menu. So we got taken. Owner laughed all the way to bank and refused to negotiate his absurd pricing and claims he is a small business - so apparently he can take advantage of people. Never again with this crook.

We were severely taken advantage of because we were from out of town. Encouraged family style dining and it came to $140 per person. No bottles of wine or beef. The owner and waiter truly led us to family style which was incredibly more than ordering off the menu. Spoiled the evening. Bill of 1261 is crazy for pasta and chicken. Absolutely scammed by David Pasqualone.

Our family of nine had dinner at this restaurant at my brother’s recommendation. We were charged $88 dollars per person for a family style dinner. The owner and our server pushed family style but we never saw pricing on the menu after seeing our bill for $1261.00 with tax and tip included. We thought it would be cheaper that way and a good way to try a few entrees. We were wrong. We were all very upset when we got the bill but were polite and paid the bill which we should not have. We spoke with the owner the next day and he said he would look into it and adjust the bill if it wasn’t right. He did not. Said he would give us a gift certificate when we came back which we will never do. The dinner was definitely not worth that amount of money. It was criminal what they did to us and so upsetting that a small business owner would take advantage of people like us.

My family has gone to Pasqualone's for years and it's always out of this world. Such a hidden gem! Small room, limited tables, intimate setting, top tier service, and insane food.
Very intimate place with a great atmosphere. You need a reservation to be in here, so book early. The food was outstanding and the service was great. A well-kept secret in the area!

We kept hearing great things about this little Italian restaurant, tucked into the Columbus Square strip mall, and we finally got ourselves in there to celebrate our anniversary. Wow! It's rare for us to find a place where the food, drinks, service, and atmosphere are all amazing. This is one of those places. The Lasagne, the Special homemade pasta with Bolognese, the Veal meatball App, and the limoncello tiramasu...every bite was a burst of deliciousness. Even the side salad, fresh romaine and a tomato slice, dressed simply with olive oil and seasoning (I think?) was so good, I thought I'm going to start dressing my salads this way at home! Their House Toscana wine paired perfectly, my pomegranate cocktail and even the decaf coffee rounded out the perfectly authentic meal. My husband is from New Jersey, and he said it felt like home being there. I have to mention the service. Matthew and his team didn't miss a beat, flowed from table to table with ease, pleasant engagement and attention to details. His recommendations were spot on. We can't wait to go back. The price was worth every bite, and the portions are very generous! Thanks Matt and all for making our night perfect!

We’ve visited this restaurant 3x now and always excellent food and service. It had been awhile since our last visit but our visit 5/3/24 did not disappoint. I cannot recommend this restaurant highly enough. Great wine selection too.

I went here with my girlfriend for date night. The food was decent. If you order anything here you should get the veal meatball appetizer because it was to die for. We also ordered the lobster ravioli special and the veal bracciole. The ravioli was pretty good and the veal bracciole was decent, but a little tough. The atmosphere is also nice - a small interior with only a few tables. The service was the only downside about this restaurant. Our waiter started us off by reciting the menu to us which is fine. He then offered to bring us more bread after we had finished the first basket and we said sure. However, no bread arrived. He also told us not to eat more bread because of the entrees that were arriving soon. Secondly when asked if we wanted pepper or parmesan cheese with our meal, we said yes but the cheese was never brought to the table. Overall the service could have been improved, but the food was decent. A bit over hyped.
