We truly enjoyed our dining experience. The bruschetta and calamari tasted fresh, and our shrimp pasta was well portioned and cooked perfectly. Service was equally good
My friends and I ordered the lasagna and the spaghetti bolognese. They were all tasty, well-seasoned and saucy. Ambiance is also very nice. Servers are pleasant and attentive.
I visited Paisano for dinner and had the lasagna. It was good, tasty, the sauce was a bit acidic for my taste yet enjoyable because I finished the whole thing. It's a great portion for value. Would return to try other items.
We ordered meat lovers today, the crust is crunchy and chewy, best one in North York area. My son like the Shrimp Al Pesto, taate good as well.
The food is amazing! Love the pizza and white wine-mussel. Feel like home and love the music and vibe. Service excellence and the people are so nice. Will come again for this!
Saw this place a few times driving by and decided to grab some lunch here. I got the lasagna and my wife got the Mediterranean pizza. Overall, they tasted decent. Pizza was better I would say. The quality of food is good, nothing too standout -ish but basically your better than average run of the mill Italian place! Good service, good food, and good atmosphere. Prices were good too.
Very good service and great food. Order anything and it’s good seems to be the way to go. Heard that from a couple of other diners as well. Sangria actually had a decent amount of wine! I ordered the seafood creole. Seafood was perfectly cooked and not rubbery! Tiramisu was moist and delicious!
Friendly staff. The food came out extremely quickly so that kinda makes you wonder how. Food overall was okay, not the best but not the worst. We enjoyed the patio area.
Excellent value. Polite staff. Convenient location. Recommended!
Always come and check on you. Orders comes on time.
Beautiful interior restaurant with comfortable seating. Staff are very friendly and attentive. Lots of delicious food options at reasonable prices.
Food is delicious and service is excellent.
Great service! Food is cooked fresh and delicious. Every course was served on time and temperature was perfect.
I ve been here a few times and the food as always been really good!
It pains me to review a restaurant with good food with only 2 stars, but I cannot say my experience with them was good. We went to this restaurant to celebrate a special occasion with some friends (about 20 people in total), however our order (my partners and mines) was forgotten and nobody told us anything. We were basically the only group at the restaurant during that time, so I really dont understand how they forgot about our order. When I saw some other people that ordered after us getting their orders, I asked about our order and they proceeded to the kitchen to check. And that was it. Nobody came to talk to us, and after a while waiting (again), our order arrived. Dont get me wrong, the food was good, but this kind of attitude of not assuming a mistake to a customer and simply vanishing until the order is done: that is the reason I am giving this place 2 stars. I hope they change their behavior because mistakes happen, and I am fine with it as long as you held yourself accountable for it. Offer your customers a discount, or an appetizer on the house, or something else, but dont simply vanish and let hungry people waiting even more for their food.
To the Indian looking guy wearing glasses, please learn customer service when I told him the menu for takeout doesn t match what I was charged on the register, which is actually very misleading. He goes and tells me that the prices were updated and refused to honor the amount on the takeout menu and instead charged me extra. When I asked to speak to the owner, he said he was the owner, which I knew was a lie, because some Indian person would not be an owner of an Italian restaurant. It is highly unlikely as I ve been coming to pay sign up for many years and I ve never known it s Indian owned I go to Italian restaurants because I know they re managed by Italian people who know Italian cuisine. Anyways, he was extremely rude and condescending in front of me and my girlfriend when we were getting takeout so whoever the owner is, should review him and have a word with him and also update your menus because what you re charging people at the cash still does not match the prices on the menu. I understand errors happen but then you should honor the amount that s advertised and not overcharge people that s actually misleading And a bit fraudulent
soooooo much love for the amazing experience in here. Everytime we visit, it doesnt feel like we were just a customer but a part of a Family. They always provided us with a good service. Would love to go back again and again!
The escargot is well done. Alfred took very good care of us, and the overall experience was great
I ve been coming to this restaurant for a few years and I love the food, atmosphere and the service here. I m gluten intolerant, and they have really good gluten free pasta. Dietary restrictions: Gluten free pasta option
Love coming here with my friend, super comfortable seating and the food is delicious
Came back to try other menu
I ve been coming to this very restaurant for years and they always serve the best quality food, not only is the food amazing but also the service is top notch, would highly recommend!

Food was not great. Both vegetables and potatoes were cold when served and I was not the only one to experience that.
Great restaurant, with comforting food. Feels like home
Came on a weekly basis can t leave each meal without their soup, pasta and dessert
Been coming here for years. Food is always solid, service great, fabulous atmosphere. We feel at home here. Highly recommend.
Kid-friendliness: Kids Menu is delicious! Portion is big! Food
Good ssrvice , medicore food. Margarita pizza was a joke didnt taste like a pizza. Veggie pizza was half cooked! Even after cooking in it again we had to ea it with spoons !
The atmosphere here is great and classy. Our server Elia was very friendly. I will be coming back. Props to this restaurant
overall great experience! we had the chicken mushroom marsala and from the special menu we had lamb chops, last but not least for desert we ordered ice cream sandwiches and need to say it was spectacular! really enjoyed all the food. recommend all the food we had!
Grilled calamari is to die for! And I don t think Gordon Ramsey himself could say anything bad about their honey garlic salmon. Service is fantastic and servers are great.
Food was yummmmmm ..
From food to customer service, Top of the line.
The vegetarian Alfredo was good! The sauce was creamy and flavorful, and the portion was perfect. Great dining experience overall!

One of my all time favorite places.
Wonderful food, wonderful service!!! Thank for great night guys!
Very great salmon and Rose sause, and very lovely environment.
I am still trying to figure out how this restaurant is getting all these 5 star reviews . I believe there are two Paisanos Restaurants, one is in Willowdale and than this one on York Mills Rd. I have ordered pizza and pasta from the Willowdale location once before and it was very good- but last week, we decided to order some pasta dishes for delivery from this location, and could not believe what we were given. My wife and son ordered the bacon carbonara and I ordered a simple spaghetti and meatballs dish. My wife and son both complained about a funny taste to their dishes, stating something tasted off- they got half way through their dish before throwing it in the trash can. My spaghetti and meatballs were absolutely flavourless and bland, the sauce tasted like plain o tomatoes! Half that plate also went into the trash can unfortunately. For an Italian restaurant, this was by far, some of the worst pasta dishes we ve ever had. I have had better meatballs from Costco! That s not an exaggeration either. Suffice to say, we will not be ordering from this restaurant again.
Service is slow Vegetarian options: Limited would like more Food : 4/5 |
Great place for casual yet tasty Italian food. Service is excellent, the staff is very attentive. Food arrives quickly and hot. Definitely recommend!
Its been a week since I was there for dinner. Overall Im rating a 4 because the quality and portion size are very good. The staff are very friendly too. My suggestion though, dont go off menu. 2 of 7 meals were not what was expected and so a couple of us did not enjoy our meals. Maybe a little more communication might have helped. Having said that, the ceasar salad, pizza and arrancini appetizers were very good. Stay on menu and youll enjoy. Sorry, no pictures this time. Everyone was too hungry to pause for photos :)
Ordered grilled salmon. It was $30 for an unseasoned tiny piece of fish. Vegetables on the side were unseasoned and undercooked. Would not reccomend.

Very nice place with great carbonara and seafood pasta! The staff is super friendly as well.
Great and efficient service.
Really nice place to enjoy an evening with friends or for a date.
Great Italian place with awesome food and service. Highly recommended. I really liked their spaghetti and meat balls and also their chicken pizza. The deserts are great as well.
A very and boisterous place to get dinner. The kitchen seems overwhelmed and perhaps they need a bit more staff there. The waitstaff was courteous and helpful.
Food was delicious, had the chef special which was fabulous, and will definitely be back for the signature menu The Service was speedy, and very consistent. Our server was incredible, kind and very passionate about the menu. Really improved my experience. The atmosphere was beautiful, well lit, and the interior design is spacious and well furnished, Italian decor is incredible. Will be back, hungry for more.
Very nice place, food is good and service too.
Amazing Food, Great Service, Highly Recommended, such a warm and welcoming team, makes your dining experience so special.
Warm and attentive service. Quaint atmosphere. Good, hearty cuisine.
We have been going to Paisano s for over 5 years. The food is great, price is reasonable and portions are generous. We had our daughter s 1 year birthday party last week and the service, food was amazing. Thank you for making my daughter s birthday enjoyable and all the guests really liked the restaurant. Especially thank you to Ilyo who was our server. Thank you again!
Food was delicious! Staff was friendly and kind. Parking: Free parking. Food : 5/5 |
A solid choice for pasta lovers! The dishes are flavorful, and the pasta is always fresh and cooked just right. Service is friendly, and the atmosphere is classy, yet comfortable. A dependable spot for a satisfying authentic Italian meal.
Parking: This plaza gets busy, sometimes parking is difficult. Food
Food is fresh and amazing. Our one pick is chicken Parmesan! Service is great and they always greet us with big smile. Vegetarian options: They do have great selection of vegetarian!
The food was amazing! Must checkout
Fantastic dining experience! The pizza was delicious with a crispy crust and fresh toppings, and the bruschetta was bursting with flavor. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, enhanced by soft, soothing music. The service was friendly, and attentive. A perfect spot for a relaxed and enjoyable meal!
Callum and Elia
I ordered food through uber eats from this restaurant. The food was only warm when it arrived, but the food itself was Terrible!!! It was supposed to be chicken alfredo but there was hardly any sauce in or on it at all and what there was, was watery and thinner than skim milk!!! After complaining to uber eats, they said they would get bad to me to provide a refund, and then the restaurant refused to provide it and it was charged back to my credit card. DO NOT every order from this restaurant, especially on uber eats. Rating -10
Very nice experience, our server Elia was very attentive and friendly!
Callum was an exceptional server which is so rare to find. Honestly probably one of the best servers we have ever had. He was attentive but never intrusive. He always filled my water right on time cleared dishes as soon as i was done to keep the table clean. Food was prompt and excellent mussels were great! Highly recommend!!!!
this restaurant used to be our familys favorite restaurant for the past 6-7 years, but their caprese salad is keep getting smaller and finally became 4 slices of tomato and bocconcini cheese on top and that was $16 haha... their service was still good but I dont think we will visit again
Great place with good specials for lunch and dinner.
Noodles are cooked very nicely, just the right amount of chewy! We got the shrimp Portobello and chicken alfredo, the shrimp was really nicely seared and cooked, the sauce the the alfredo was incredible!
Kid-friendliness: No kids menu Food
Great authentic italian food, great atmosphere, great service. Cant go wrong here. My fave is the chicken parm. Good size portion and not too expensive.
3 of us had lunch at Paisano on York Mills. We were pleasantly Greeted,Seated byAlfred or host,server. Very spacious,clean looking establishment. Alfred was professional, yet friendly,and very helpful when asked for his input regarding the choice on the menu. We had Bruscetta to start. Very tasty,satisfying. As mains,2 orders Veal with mushroom sauce,1 Spaghetti with Meatballs. All arrived in a timely manner, All tasted very good! For deserts,1 Creme Brule,1 Tiramisu. 2 Cappuccino coffees 1 double espresso.. All Very Good. We were All Very Happy with our Lunch at this Paisano York Mills.!! This is NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANOTHER OF THE SAME NAME! Which pales in comparison to York Mills location.! Everything here was spotless. The Bathrooms were gleaming. A GREAT sign of a quality establishment, are their facilities... We were not surprised that everything was fine quality. Thoroughly Enjoyed or experience,we will be back to York Mills Paisano,to be sure!!
Ordered from uber eats and the food was actually terrible, barely any sauce on pasta and the mushroom salad was just some wilted iceberg lettuce with some barely cooked mushrroms on the side, would absolutely avoid ordering from here
Amazing place for Italian food
Vegetarian options: Great vegetarian lasagna Food
Sun dried tomato salad was a bit salty but good. Shrimp Portobelo was great. Normal pasta pomodoro was also good having vegetables in the sauce. Parking: Enough numbers and even behind the building.
Everything was perfect..
Highly recommend for anyone craving great Italian food!
I love the Fettuccine Salmon.
They were so nice with me and also the food was delicious! A great environment for a nice and a relaxing place after a long day. Food
Very good food and delicious Tiramisu! Friendly service!
Pasta is amazing and the dessert, especially the homemade Tiramisu! Btw, the service was awesome!
Great place, nice staff good food highly recommend
First time I went to this Italian restaurant the appetizer was perfect , The food was ok , The staff and the service was perfect. Parking: A lot space for parking
Very nice Italian restaurant. The waiters were very enthusiastic and the food was of good quality. We ordered two pasta dishes for lunch, and the portions were just right.
It s the service that makes this place good. The food is alright.
Had a late dinner date after the Friday night dinner rush. We had excellent service, great wine (for half price), and I had the Tuscan pasta with salad, which was so tasty. Great portion size for a late night dinner.
Food was average and they have limited veg options
Very disappointing. Dont waste your money here. Definitely not Italian in any way. So sorry to say but its the truth:(
Wonderful experience. Really great food. Definitely recommend
Neha was a lovely waitress! Great service. We love going with our family. Kid-friendliness: Great for kids and families. Lots of space. Kid menu. Wheelchair accessibility: Wish there were more wheelchair parking spots! 2 isn t enough.
Wonderful service and food, highly recommend!
Food was amazing and our server Callum was very attentive to our party of 5. He recommended the spicy olive oil to add to our food and it was indeed an amazing addition to our dishes. Will be back very soon!
Nice cozy neighborhood restaurant
Great experience
Food was great, Price was right, very enjoyable meal and service was fast
Delicious pizza, crust was perfect balance of chewy and crispy, great flavour, price and portion. Wheelchair accessibility: Spacious interior
Food was good basic Italian
We enjoyed the rose gnocchi and arugula prosciutto pizza! It was tasty and perfectly cooked. Service was great too!
Paisano is an average spot for a meal. The food is decent, though nothing particularly stands out. I tried a couple of dishes, and while they were okay, they lacked any bold flavors or creativity. The ambiance is okay, but its nothing special. Service was a bit slow, and the staff seemed a bit disorganized. Overall, its not a bad place to grab a bite, but I wouldn t go out of my way to visit again.
Nobody takes care about you, the customer Not only that the food is well below average, the Service is awful / I have been here 5-6 times as it is right in front of my hotel on Yorkmills / Tje Pizza is OK but meats and fishes are well below standard / The service does not save the quality of the food a missed opportunity ! Here it is clear nobody is in Love with food, cuisine and the concept of making customers feels they are welcome !!!
This was our first time in Toronto and first time at Paisano! The food was great and our server Eila, was fantastic!! Dietary restrictions: They were sure to ask about allergies before making suggestions. Parking: Easy parking
Terrible food. East side Marios is awful yet better than this. Lasagna was not fresh. Pasta in rose sauce was a pool of oil. Pizza was okay, but not great . Definitely not recommended.
I came here for summerlicious. $35 for dinner which is good value for 3 course meal. However the food was just ok. The presentation of the food could be better. The almond crusted cod was just a few flakes of almond sprinkle on top. Overall, it was just ok.
Great food and service, it is a little loud but I am very sensitive to noise. Wheelchair accessibility: Not easily wheelchair accessible (narrow entrance) Food : 5/5 |
It shows that the food is frozen and reheated, it is not fresh, and it tastes very bad.
This restaurant was recommended by friends, coworkers and family. I visited on July 25 to order takeout for first time. The hostess provided a us with take-out menu, I asked her specifically about chicken options. After the hostess gave me the overview, I decided on the Pan-seared chicken breast topped with a lemon sauce, served with penne pasta and vegetables. When I got home, my family and tasted the Pan Seared chicken breast was gravely disappointed. There was no seasoning on the entire food and the chicken tasted like cardboard. Wasn t edible. I kept it in the container to take back to the restaurant the next day. Next day I contacted the restaurant and spoke to the manager. He said he would follow up with staff and call me back. Within minutes he called back and ACCUSED me of modifying the Pan seared chicken meal AS PER INFO HE GOT FROM THE COOK. (of which I did not) and said that he had to follow up with the hostess who comes in the evening time. I found that rather unprofessional and inexcusable. For a manager if a customer is unsatisfied with the quality of the service/food. It s THE MANAGER S responsibility to resolve the matter and instead of putting blame on the customer. The first impression is key. My friends, coworkers and family were not correct in stating this local restaurant which we try to support local, was offering good food and service. This restaurant left a bad impression. The end goal should be for the MANAGER to come with a solution that is satisfactory for the customer and an apology. Since then, he GHOSTED me and hasn t followed up with an explanation or apology. Goes to show the integrity of this restaurant and their staff and lack of professionalism. I DEFINITELY WOULD NOT RECOMMEND OR BE VISITING THIS RESTAURANT AGAIN!
It has the worst Italian food.
Vegetarian options: Lots of good options Food
We have been going to this restaurant for many years. While it was never the best Italian food it was convenient. But this evening was probably the worst Italian meal have ever had! We preferred the Summerlicious dinners and they tried to charge us for a la Carte! And the dinners were awful. The eggplant was underdone and tasted pasty. The chicken with pasta was old tasting and the pasta tasted like it came from a can! Under no circumstances would we ever return! Terrible food and game playing with the bill. Never again!
Authentic Italian food with excellent service from Callum. Well be back for sure.
I ordered delivery to try this place for the first time. The chicken penne alfredo was bland and runny, I had to add extra seasoning to make it more tasty. The bruschetta was mediocre, the tomatos tastes as if it is about to expire, and the garlic shrimp that I ordered tasted also mediocre, if you cook it yourself it would taste 10x better.
The service is excellent. (Ask for Alfred). Food quality is excellent. Portion sizes are generous. I enjoy the comfort and ambience of the leather booths. Always an enjoyable dining experience.
Enjoyable dinner out with family and friends.
DO NOT GO HERE. Visited with my family. We waited over an hour for food and drinks while new diners were being served both. Different waiters kept asking to confirm our orders 40 mins after we placed it. No one has a clue whats happening there. Its all over the place. Seems like they prioritize some diners over others. Poor poor service. The food however was decent for the price. Still never going there again. It was my 2nd time with the same experience.
I got some shrimp marinara and garlic bread for takeout. For me, this meal was delicious and comforting. I would have expected the shrimp to have the tails removed in a pasta dish like this, but it was really tasty and a generous portion. The garlic bread complemented it perfectly. I was a little confused by the order system when I ordered for a future time, but they were very kind about it and did exactly as I ordered. I would eat here again for sure.
good
Had a wonderful dinner made better by a spectacular server. Elia was spectacular, our waters glasses were never empty and his courtesy was NEXT LEVEL.! Thank you for a great evening
Elia was a magnificent waiter Very friendly and all his recommendations were spot on Food here never disappoints Vegetarian options: The salads are tasty and very hearty
We had our sons First Communion lunch here with a party of 20 people. The staff was friendly, accomodating, and made our special occasion flawless. The food was amazing, and good portions. We were located in a private area close to the bar. I highly reccomend for special events.
Paisano is a hidden gem offering authentic Italian cuisine in a cozy, rustic setting. The menu features delightful dishes. The wine selection is impressive The staff is attentive and knowledgeable . We had two kinds of seafood pasta, escargot that were delicious Highly recommended for anyone craving a genuine taste of Italy!
It s a good place , Very authentic Italian food, will come back again sometime
Hello, I am from Taiwan, and I am very happy to have a try at their restaurant. We were staying in the hotel opposite and discovered their restaurant. We ordered salmon salad, Italian, salmon steak, etc.. Everything was very good, we Friends who live nearby said that they would take their friends there to eat in the future. And I like their service very much. They are very polite and enthusiastic. They constantly help us add water. Seeing that I drink water quickly, they prepare a beautiful kettle and lemon slices for us, and every time We all smiled when we came here once. I can only say that their service really makes guests feel comfortable.
Good food and nice atmosphere
The food was great, the bathrooms were clean, but the service was sub par. We were asked for our drink orders before wed even taken our coats off or sat down, and then no one came back for at least twenty five minutes after we did sit down. No table check was done during our meal. Waters were never refilled. Nobody asked if we wanted another when cocktails/wines were finished. At the end I was still eating and all the other plates were taken away and dessert menus were dropped, and we were asked for our dessert order WHILE I WAS STILL Eating. Service staff were polite, so theres at least that, but they could use some training for sure with their lack of attention to detail and etiquette.
First time to dine here and really enjoyed the food! The Penne Al Baffo was creamy and delicious plus the bruschetta as an appetizer was perfect. Can t wait to try the other dishes for our next visit.
Ordered some pasta for my father and I through Uber eats. Tasted lovely but 26 dollars for the tiny take out containers just isnt worth it.
Food was very good. Service was slow.
I came in here with my wife and 4 year old and were immediately ignored by the many bus people who kept walking by. We would eventually be seated by someone from the back of the house. Once seated, we waited another 5 minutes for a server who came to our table with her mouth full of food - yes, thats right, they were eating food while asking us if we wanted water. A little stunned, we asked for water and explained that we were ready to order since so much time had passed since we had entered the restaurant. She seemed to have dismissed us as she didnt respond and just walked away without taking our order. We then proceeded to wait another 10 minutes for a server who would never show up. We decided that this service was ridiculous and walked out of the restaurant. Went to the great Thai restaurant next door and were served appropriately. Would not recommend coming here unless you enjoy waiting hungry and dealing with unprofessional staff who eat food while speaking with you. Very classy service.
I went for summerlious, it was awful.i ordered my fav dish, egg plant parm, there were 5 thick slices covered in tomato sauce and cheese, not very appealing visual or taste wise, they did offer me something else, but , after having a piece of Italian bread which was a embarrassment to serve, I declined anything else offered
Paneer Parmigiana
We had a lovely family dinner at Paisano at York Mills and Leslie. Our server Callum couldn t have been more attentive. The food was well prepared and flavourful. We ll be back! Food : 5/5
After being seated, no one acknowledged us for 10 minutes. Not even water. We left
Every time I am in T.O. I bring my elderly Mother. We use to love this place but it was either an off night or things have gone downhill. Gone are the cloth napkins. While there were many open tables we were crowded together with tables all around (we had made reservations). While our server was good, others serving the table beside us were argumentative and rude - they brought the wrong wine, and were irritated responding to questions about anchovies and menu items. Food was fair. I wish entrees could be with a red or white sauce ( lactose intolerant people can t have the white sauce with cream). One thickly slice piece of bread comes on the plate with pasta. No butter for the bread. Parking: No wheelchair accessible spots were available Wheelchair accessibility: No available spots
Delicious food and great service! Will come back.
Great food! Deliciously cooked. Succulent veal and white wine mussels. Very attentive service. First time here. Highly recommend and will come back shsin
Great ambiance and perfect location for having Italian food Parking: Didn t count Food : 5/5 |
Nestled in the heart of downtown, Paisano is a gem for pizza aficionados, especially those with a penchant for vegetarian delights. This cozy Italian eatery exudes a charming and inviting atmosphere, perfect for a casual dinner or a special celebration. The star of the show is undoubtedly their Veggie Lovers Pizza. The crust is perfectly crisp on the outside yet wonderfully soft and chewy on the inside, providing the ideal foundation for the generous toppings. The service is another highlight. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely enthusiastic about the menu. They are more than happy to accommodate special requests and dietary restrictions, ensuring that every guest has a memorable dining experience. Vegetarian options: Vegetarian options available
Great place to come with awesome menu and taste
Paisano Restaurant in North York offers a cozy atmosphere and authentic Italian cuisine. Standout dishes like the rich pasta and perfectly cooked veal, along with attentive service, make it perfect for a romantic dinner or family gathering. Highly recommended for a delightful taste of Italy.
The eggplant parm was great! Vegetarian options: Lots of veggie options available Food : 5/5 |
Good food and good service. Very consistent. Dietary restrictions: They have gf options and are accommodating for this. Food : 4/5 |
This place is amazing. Outstanding! From the food to the service, everything is perfect. I have been to over 30 Italian restaurants across Toronto and this is definitely a top 3 and MUST TRY! Menu is extremely versatile and their cocktails are out of this world. If you want to have a great night, paisanos is the spot!
The menu options were fantastic, and Muralis service was truly exceptional! The customer service was absolutely fabulous! Vegetarian options: Well prepared and delicious. My favorite; Paneer Parmigiana without the parmesan.
The calamari was served on lettuce with taziki sauce for dipping. I have never been to an Italian restaurant that used Greek dip for calamari. I have the veal Parmesan which wasnt bad. The veggies were carrots and peppers and one piece of broccoli. Nothing spectacular and probably wont go back.
Terrible service
My son ordered chicken pasta, after first bite, he said he have to come back! He said the food is great and the server is friendly. My little guy ordered spaghetti bolognese, he said it is good but bit too much sauce. Mine was linguine Al Pesto, l love it! Definitely would come back. Vegetarian options: I like the fact that they have so many vegetarian choices Parking: Enough spots Kid-friendliness: Kids menu available with lots of choices
Great service, wonderful food
Great service with delicious Italian food. Like the place and furnishing inside.
We ordered food as take out. Portions were average sizes. The cheese and spinach ravioli tasted average. The butter chicken pasta was okay. For dessert we got the chocolate cake. The outside of the cake was very dry and did not taste good. The strawberry cheesecake slice was small and does not have much of a crust.
Very nice place for an informal Italian meal in York Mills
This is absolutely one of our favourite go to restaurants! The food, the service the ambiance are all great. We love the wait staff. They are always friendly, upbeat and very accommodating
Hosted my child s reception for his communion during lunch hours. Was not busy at all so the service with the food coming in was great. Staff was super attentive and the food delicious. The set menus are very affordable and the manager was able to make a tiny change to the menu selected with no issue.
Great soup and friendly service. We loved all the italien dishes.
The food was exceptional especially the basic pizza. Loved the service and value for money !!
Amazing food and great service!
Great food and great place to have a wonderful pastas. Recommended !!!
I really liked the chicken carbonara. Good food with good atmosphere
Its really quite simple. You order a carbonara. It is not prepared with eggs. Its not a carbonara. You have no business serving Italian food.
Lunch specials are good value for money. Ample parking and good staff.
Had an amazing experience here and the food was great
Absolutely delicious food! Knowledgeable staff and great service. A must try!!
Please save your money! We had a burger which looked and tasted like it is frozen patty s from no frills and came with fries that were like frozen ones from Costco! and a grilled eggplant which was supposed to come with bocconcini but it came with cheap hard mozzarella ( thankfully there were some broccoli and carrots on the side that I could eat. I think overall it costed them 5$ to make this cheap, disgusting food. We also had blue lagoon drink that didn t feel like had any alcohol.
Amazing service, delicious food
Chicken Parmigiana was great. The portion size is generous. The waiter paitently answered our questions and helped us choose. Quite friendly and welcoming environment.
Delicious food, very good service
food was great, serving size for pasta is large and quite satiating, menu has something for everybody love that they didnt play pop songs, had calm music that suited the meal. service was quick, food was hot, very friendly staff. will come back on a warmer day, thank you :)
We ordered Alfredo Pasta from UberEats and picked it up. They have a good buy one get one promotion that makes it worth the price. The food was just fine!
Delicious food and great service!
First time here mussels were mouth watering and the shrimp and scallop pasta was perfect will come again
Nice Italian spot in the Don Mills area! Overall: 4/5 Food: Salmon Rosé Pasta - 3.5/5 - Not amazing but I enjoyed it :) Penne a la vodka - 4/5 - my mom ordered this (not pictured) and it was good, I d go back and order that! Ambiance: 4.5/5 I like the restaurant a lot; very nice vibe, cool area, and nice that they have a patio. They also had a pianist the day we were there! Service: 5/5 - it was busy and our server was being pulled everywhere, but he still made sure we were taken care of well. Very friendly and prompt!
Good pizza with a reasonable price
Good pizza with a reasonable price.
Very nice and cozy Kid-friendliness: They provide with color and stuff to keep people occupied Food : 5/5 |
Food tasted decent. Not the best pasta but the pizza was delicious. Service is pretty slow, difficulty getting a server to our table but overall worth the try. Quite $$$, the plate is big but the food portion is decent.
The food was good. I expected a little more flavor for an Italian restaurant. Very good service
ordered from uber, the dishes look ugly , spaghetti is dry and over cooked, fish is burnt. not worth it
I had a large party for my daughter s baptism at Paisanos and I couldn t be happier with the food and service. The staff were wonderful and the food was delicious. All my guests were raving about how good it was and how large the portions were. Highly recommend for dining in and parties. Thank you very much Paisanos!
Paisano offers an authentic dining experience with a cozy, inviting atmosphere. The menu features a wide range of classic Italian dishes, from rich, flavorful pastas to perfectly cooked meats and fresh seafood. The service is attentive and friendly, making guests feel like part of the family. Standout dishes include the lasagna, pesto and chicken pasta, and tiramisu for dessert. Ideal for both casual dinners and special occasions, Paisano delivers quality cuisine. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a delightful Italian meal.

overall It was good experience. Will come back soon Vegetarian options: Yes i am Vegetarian so they have special section Parking: I didn t use one but its there
Great little local spot for some nice Italian food and some top notch non franchise style pizza. Delivery through Skip the Dishes or pick up works too. Meat lover Pizza is my favourite thus far as I work my way through the options and the Chicken Parm was on point too. Support small business and give them a shot one day July 2022 update Even though it seems they are skimping on the toppings lately if you compare to my previous pics the pizza is still coming out good but we have to deduct a star due to lack of consistency
I selected the spaghetti with meatballs and meat sauce. Very rich and delicious! Also had the bruschetta. Very fresh and tasty. Helpful and friendly staff. Will definitely be back.
Horrible experience, horrible service , empty restaurant and food came before drinks. No manager or owner on duty to take responsibilities, ruind our anniversary and wasted our time. Sucha great experience! Service super slow and they cant even prepare a caprese salad made the drinks completely wrong made the salads completely wrong sent it all back to the kitchen and they still tried to charge us for everything. Shut this place down was way better many years ago. You can offer me free food for a year you wont see me come in again
My friend and I had the most amazing experience, including delicious food and exceptional customer service, at this restaurant. We were particularly appreciative of Murali and Mahdis who served us that day. I highly recommend this Italian restaurant and we are looking forward to returning very soon
A delightful atmosphere paired with delicious cuisine.
Great experience and awesome customer service
We walked in to an almost empty restaurant. It was unbelievable as we expected it to be bustling given the reviews. Perhaps weekends are downtimes. Service was slow with the amount of workers we have seen by the counter. I don t recommend this place nor will come back.
Our server Sum was EXCELLENT. One of the best servers I ve ever had. Food was so great as well. We ll definitely be back! Parking: If the parking in the front fills up, there s lots more in the back plaza or closer to the karate studio at the other end of the plaza
The sausage penne was delicious so as the sausage pizza. Will definitely be back.
Amazing food and service! Very kid friendly too!
Food was delicious
