| - I came here a few weeks ago with my aunt - we were craving Italian food and she knew of Paisano's - a delicious Italian restaurant with all kinds of items to choose from. The service was always helpful and friendly and we didn't have to wait long despite the number of customers already seated.
They start you off with bread and butter but unfortunately, the bread looked just like slices of plain white bread from the grocery store.
We started off with the Soup of the Day ($5) - I forget what the soup was called (the soup of the day isn't written on the menu but the server will tell you about it) but it was a sort of creamy corn soup. I think it was the best thing I had that night - creamy and sweet it was a yummy way to start our dinner.
I ordered off their chicken pasta section of the menu - the Raffaella ($16) - chicken breast, roasted red peppers, sundried tomatoes, snowpeas, penne pasta, and a rose sauce. It was okay - I'd never had snowpeas in pasta before but it adds a bit of a bitter taste to it. I don't known if I'd order it again - it was, overall, more on the bitter side of pastas and it felt like it could use more sauce.
My aunt ordered the Seafood Creole ($16) - shrimp, calamari, clams, salmon, mussels, linguine pasta, and a marinara sauce. My aunt was really satisfied with it. I had the chance to try it and while I liked it more than my dish, I thought its seafood components overpowered the dish - I know it's a seafood pasta, and there's a lot of ingredients from the sea in it to prove it, but they didn't blend too well with the marinara sauce and with each other.
For dessert, we ordered the Homemade Tiramisu ($5) - layers of espresso & liquor-soaked sponge cake alternating with mascarpone cheese, and topped with grated chocolate. At first bite, it tasted a bit too cold - like it had been in the fridge for the day (not the freshest, but I didn't expect it to be) but it was an overall yummy dessert - had notes of the coffee with remnants of liquor and it was presented beautifully.
Overall, Paisano's was a good experience - ambient, cozy, great service, and, for the most part, good food - not amazing, but good enough. While I don't think I'd order the pastas we got this time again, I would come here again for that creamy corn soup, to try more of their desserts, or to try more on their menu - Paisano's has a lot to offer and I'm always down to try more Italian cuisine.
