We have been eating in and taking out food at Paolo for many, many years but the sandwich I got today was the worst I ever had. I ordered an Italian Sandwich. The roll tasted stale. The sandwich was very, very dry to the point of being hard to swallow. Tasted and looked like it had very little oil. I had to add some of my own. You had to actually hunt for the lettuce and onions. No taste at all. It was very bland. The last time I got one the experience was very similar. I suggest unless you order pizza to find another place for your sandwich.

The food was excellent. The service was very good. The restaurant is getting a little dated and the furniture needs some tlc. The live music outside was a nice touch. The TVs showing the Eagles game was also appreciated.

Great pizza. Really good crust and sauce. Reminds me of New York style pizza. And I got to take my tour de pizza cutter for a spin.

Danielle was our courteous server and made sure our visit went well. The facility is clean and has both indoor and outdoor seating. We had the Italian sausage and flounder entrees and both were plentiful portions and came with hefty sides. The sausage was spicy and the Caesar salad was a meal of its own. Only one bathroom exists for both genders so you may have a wait. Figure $30 per person.

Ate here 4 years ago and it was good. However the other night we ate here and the fries were luke warm and my boyfriend got stuffed shrimp and the noodles were bland. And the ice tea he received was watered down. Not impress this time

We were greeted immediately with a friendly smiling face. Seated at the table of our choice from what was free, and offered drinks up front. Our waitress was friendly and easy going. Our food was hot and fresh. I had stuffed shells which came in a metal dish on a plate. The dish had obviously been in the oven to melt the cheese and I was warned it would be hot. I even enjoyed a nice slice of Reece's peanut butter cake. I would highly recommend this for a night out with family or friends.

Tonight I ordered a cheesesteak and fries. I asked for the fries to be fried hard. I got there to pick up my order and was told it would be about 2 minutes. No problem I said. Well that turned into 10 minutes and when my cheesesteak was done I saw my fries had been setting for that entire time. Of course when I got home 15 minutes later the fries were cold and mushy. If the cheesesteak had any cheese in it I sure didn't taste any or see any. Very disappointed. Will be a long time before and if I order food from there again.

Stopped here for lunch. I got a cheesesteak, which was like $13.00 with fries that were $7.00. The cheesesteak wasn’t horrible: seasoning was there, but not enough; a little too many fatty bits for my liking, as well. The fries got me heated though; unlike me, they were stone cold, dry, and flavorless. Unless they step up their game, definitely would not recommend.

The food is just bad. My daughter’s spaghetti was almost dry and the little sauce it had was very bland. My chicken cheesesteak was also dry and had a weird mushy consistency. It looked like it may have been made with canned chicken. So awful.
