Paesanos 1604

This restaurant provides a lovely atmosphere, delicious choices of Italian fare, moderately priced, generous portions, and kind, efficient wait staff. We enjoyed the quiet ambiance inside, while watching a wedding party outside enjoy their celebration. Paesano's can provide both. Family friendly or intimate dinners. A lovely choice for any occasion. The manager, Debra Jones, greeted us at the hostess stand to welcome us with honest hospitality & appreciation for our business. She made us feel welcome! Our server, Angel, was attentive, kind, and professional, with a personal touch.

Our server, Payton was the best! We enjoyed our early dinner experience without any hiccups. Payton came back often to see if we needed anything! I called the manager over to let her know it was one of our best experiences in their fine restaurant.

Excellent experience with attentive employees in a nice mellow atmosphere. Food was cooked perfect with a fantastic paella and the special salad. To follow up with an Apple Tart sealed the deal. Highly recommend

Since arriving the hostess was very friendly and smiling quickly taking my wife to our table while I parked the truck. Once back they showed me exactly where my wife was. Soon after we met our waiter Adalberto what a fine person he was very knowledgeable of the dinner menu and Wine menu. A few minutes passed. We met the General Manager of Paesanos Mark. What a terrific man he went out of his way to make our stay memorable. The Lobster Ravioli, Baked Ziti, Santa margarita Pinot Grigio and Malbec were outstanding. The butternut squash soup wasn’t that great. Ruth Cris has it better. The the bread and hummus was good and oil to dip. The Creme Brûlée was exceptional and the cappuccino was outstanding 5 out 5 Stars

Honestly I want to say that the restaurant is very nice and the staff is very kind, friendly and professional. Dinner was exquisite, the wine was very good, I recommend the house’s Cabernet, delicious, smells very good, tastes super good and is strong. We ordered the ceviche as an appetizer and it was delicious, lasagna and delicious pasta too. The atmosphere is nice but I put about 4 starts and I would like to recommend some classic and elegant instrumental music in the restaurant, I didn’t hear any music while we were eating, I only heard the people at each table talking and I felt like I was in a dining room with many people talking at the same time. Everything else very good, in general very good restaurant. Yes, I recommend it and we are thinking of going again some other day.

Enjoyed a brunch with friends. Haven’t been here in ages due to all the construction on 1604, but we thought the ambiance was nice. Service was professional. Place was not packed so we were able to have a relaxing get together without feeling rushed. It was not loud there so conversation was very comfortable. Food & wine was good.

We were welcomed warmly as soon as we walked in and seated quickly. Food was amazing - every meal. The only downfall was not serving Coke products.

Came in From Denver to Celebrate my BF Birthday and OMG everything was so delicious 10 out of 10. Our server Ernie Was so nice and sweet and knowledgable about the menu. Such a hard worker and his work ethic was inpecable. My Favorite was the desert we ordered the banana pudding omg i cant wait to go back to SAT to have it one more time!

We bade farewell to Diane L., a longtime AXO alumni member of the San Antonio group. We had lunch at Paesano's 1604 this past Monday. It was fairly quiet at the restaurant so we were not rushed. I had the Eggplant Parmagiana that came with a house salad. Karen and Suzanne both ordered the Petite Shrimp Paesanos. Many of us took leftovers home. Generous portions. The service was great!

A little underwhelming I had my first experience at Paesanos with a larger dinner party and only a couple of us were truly satisfied with our meal. The atmosphere of the restaurant itself was nice, service was decent, and the dishes I saw at other tables while we waited on our orders looked absolutely delicious, but it became quickly apparent that looks were the best thing about the food. I had the Lobster Ravioli, and the first thing I noticed about this dish was how fishy it smelled. I think it may have been the crab butter emitting this odious scent, but despite the smell I had a very hard time actually tasting the lobster itself as the rest of the ingredients completely overwhelmed it. There were far too many peppers topping the pasta, and if they weren't enough to take away from the lobster, the crispy prosciutto sealed the deal. Both another party member who'd also ordered this dish and I shoved the prosciutto aside in the hopes of better tasting the lobster, but we both ended up having to dig through peppers as well. To top it off, the pasta was just too thick for the minimal amount of filling. Overall, it was just an extremely disappointing dish. I'm not sure I'd return here as the majority of my party agreed that it was a disappointing meal despite the array of dishes ordered. For such an interesting menu, it was a let down that it was an average meal at best. I'll give Paesanos a 5 for venue and cleanliness and a 3 for the food for an overall 4 stars.

Food: We had the bruschetta which was simple but delicious. The mussels I was excited to try but I don't know if I would recommend them. The broth and bread were amazing but the muscles still had a seafood taste but not in the nice way. The was bread offered for the table with hummus on one side and olive oil on the other. For the entree the salmon was okay. The cherry glaze made for a sweet crust which wasn't the favorite for the night. The pasta was delicious and the chicken Peccadillo was also really good. The chicken dish wasn't what I originally expected I thought it would be chicken on side and the veggies separate then the potatoes on the other but it was chopped up and all together with a really good sauce. The drinks were also really good the favorite of the night was the lemon lavender definitely recommend! Service: They were kind of busy but the waitress was attentive. Drinks came out fairly fast so did entries and appetizers. Ambiance: It was really nice and moody. Perfect for a date. The decor and entire ambiance was aesthetic and pleasing.

Paesanos 1604 has amazing food and a stunning tuscan style building, but many people may not know that they have separate rooms for parties. We chose to host our daughter's small scale wedding reception here after contacting their event coordinator. Adrienne was amazing with recommendations and accommodations allowing us to truly add a personal touch to the event. They facilitated everything from personalized table decor to facilitating a space and set up for our own wedding cake and of course allowing us to have mariachis. The food choices are extensive but the menu and options are so easy to navigate. We had a buffet style meal and a bar area complete with our our own server. The event coordinator, Adrienne, the manager and the entire staff was so professional and helpful in creating a flawless and well executed event. I highly recommend planning an event at Paesanos 1604 as they make it so easy because they clearly know what they are doing!!

Came here with the family on a Friday evening to celebrate my mom's birthday. My family was seated while we were just getting there. I don't believe there was a wait, but if there had been it was very short. Our table was tucked away in a corner near the bar area. After looking over the menu, I finally decided on the Fettuccini Margaret. I got a house salad to accompany it. The entree was great. I liked the combination of flavors. Salad was pretty standard and did not particularly stand out. I will definitely be back.

Paesano's 1604 is in San Antonio, TX. It has an Italian flare with a delicious, unique cuisine. As you walk into Paesano's, you feel like you walked into a modern-day castle with extremely high ceilings and gigantic round chandeliers. The bar and reception area have counters covered by lights...a cool modern vibe. The restaurant features indoor and outdoor seating, providing a serene, inviting vibe. The restaurant is draped in a canopy of trees offering shade and an inviting environment. The interior is sleek and contemporary with clean architectural lines. I met my brother for lunch and we both ordered the same thing - Shrimp Paesano, one of their signature dishes. This pasta dish features jumbo shrimp, which was sautéed to perfection...crispy around the edges but so super moist inside. The shrimp floats in a rich, creamy butter sauce with garlic, lemon juice, and fresh herbs (parsley and chives.) It was served normally with spaghetti noodles...that's what my brother ordered. I modified my dish to include capellini (thin noodle). The dish came with a fresh house salad. Paesano's serves a lunch version of this dish with 3 shrimp (full dish features 5 shrimp.) Portion sizes are extremely large. I ate half of my food and took the remainder home. Conversely, my brother ate his entire plate of food. I suppose he has a healthier appetite. Bummed that my picture of our entrees was blurry. Parking is abundant around the restaurant. All parking is complementary. In addition, we had no reservations and were walk right in. Our server, Alberto, was very pleasant and knowledgeable about the restaurant. He shared that the 1604 location was intentionally different from the Quarry location. One example is the walnut cranberry bread served at the Quarry but not at1604. The 1604 location has only sourdough bread, but it is extremely tasty and different from the Quarry location. Exceptional dining experience...recommend choosing Paesano's for your dining pleasure.

My fiance and I have been here several times and really seems to get better each time we are there. Our latest trip here was on a Saturday around 3. Their Happy Hour times are Tuesday through Saturday 11 to 6. It is also all day on Sunday and Monday. My fiance and I love going during Happy Hour for their Appetizet Specials. We usually get three different appetizers to share and a couple drinks. This time, we got their Calamari, Oysters and Mussels. The calamari here here is the biggest pieces that I have seen. The sauce that comes with it was very tasty and complimented the calamari. The mussels were delicious and served in an amazing broth. We joked that the broth is so good that you you can almost drink it like a soup. I suggest saving some of the complimentary bread that you get at the beginning so that you can soak up this amazing broth. The Oysters had the best presentation of the three appetizers. They are presented in a way that makes it seem like it's a one bite. Even with my big mouth, I felt more comfortable cutting the Oyster in half first. My fiance and I were discussing what to get for dessert. The server must have over heard because he let us know that he highly recommended Toffee Banana Bread Pudding. This is not something that I normally would have though of but we decided to give it a try. Now that I have had it, I recommend it to anyone that goes here. I suggest this place for amazing food and service.

Our go to and anniversary dinner spot! Great food, great wine and awesome service! The also made our rehearsal dinner for our son a great night!!!

Called in an order it was right before the closed. I had the Lobster Ravioli. It was just average nothing to jump up and down about.

I've frequented this restaurant for years and I can honestly say all my favorite dishes just keep improving with time. This is also my favorite restaurant to celebrate personal milestones. They have great happy hour drink and food specials which we've enjoyed many times. Their giant calamari with the sweet and spicy dipping sauce is a stand out appetizer second only to their delicious mussels in a rich delicious tomato broth with toasted bread and fried oysters with remoulade sauce. We enjoyed several well-made cocktails today including a filthy vodka martini, lemon drop martini, midnight old fashioned, and ended our delicious meal with perfectly made carajillos. This is an Italian restaurant with many delicious dishes, I've never been disappointed with any dish I've had from here but their Baked Ziti and buttery shrimp Paesano are my favorites. The Cappuccino pie is my most favorite ice cream based dessert but they're all good and yes I think I've tried them all. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating with lovely warm lighting inside and a sweet coy fountain outside. This location is right off 1604 with plenty of parking, just look out for 1604 highway closures. If you want to enjoy the happy hour specials, keep in mind you can only enjoy them in the bar area. We greatly enjoyed our meal today and will keep coming back for more!

Ambiance: Upscale Italian & modern restaurant with a nice ambiance! Perfect for a date night, celebration, or nice lunch out. I got the quail - delicious! Loved the chorizo grits that came with it! Parking onsite, friendly service, and an amazing wine list. I love visiting Paesanos when I'm in San Antonio!

I was invited to Paesanos for an educational event and I can't wait to return at a later date. The atmosphere seemed very romantic and the food matched the mood. At to that friendly staff, I can't wait to return.

Okay... consistently delicious signature dishes: Shrimp Paesano, house salad, eggplant, pasta with either butter garlic or tomato sauce. Paesano's is my go to, "I want Italian"restaurant. But today I decided to go rogue. I ordered the mussels and dates along with the house salad, bread and hummus and olive oil. What an elevated experience! When it is served with the warm and familiar face of Julio, who is absolutely the best server we've ever known, in the beautiful solarium space on a cool and sunny day, you might as well consider yourself on vacation! Don't forget about the restaurants that put San Antonio on the map as a culinary destination.

I go to this restaurant often, so I decided to try the Veal Parmesan. The meat was terrible, hard, stringy, almost impossible to cut. The breading was wet and not from the marinara, just from not being fried to a crisp; I was so disappointed and at $30+ a dish you would expect some level of quality. The waiter and service were great and the calamari is divine: soft, flavorful and plentiful for an appetizer. The place was ricking and it was VERY loud. The bread, hummus and peppered oil is great to get you going but I must say that I was really let down by the veal parm. Poor quality and it was unmistakable.

Paesanos is one of my favorite places to eat at in SA. This location offers lots of seating. With a n option to be seated indoors, outdoors or in between in what I like to call the sun room. The sourdough bread and hummus are one of my many things which Jew me coming back. You can't go wrong with anything on the menu but my Persia l favorites are the chicken Parmesan and shrimp paesano. The servers are super helpful when it comes to ordering and also come by frequently for refills. I always leave here satisfied.

The food is delicious and staff is very friendly. I highly recommend . Atmosphere is lovely too.

Paesanos is an absolute treasure when it comes to food! It totally lives up to all the great things people say about it! The elegant ambiance sets the stage for an unforgettable dining experience, and the impeccable service makes you feel like a VIP. The calamari is one of the best I've had, striking a perfect sweet and spicy balance. Don't miss the amaretto crème brûlée, with its delightful texture, and the pan-seared day boat scallop semolina crab gnocchi--both are inventive and delicious. Every aspect of my meal was fantastic.

I joined the Braun Station retirees for their Christmas luncheon today. It was my first time to ever dine at a Paesano's, although I always wanted to go after hearing rave reviews from others. Let me tell you... It is a popular place for holiday lunches. The place was absolutely packed when I arrived shortly after eleven. As usual, we were seated at a large table. I had a comfortable spot close to the people I know best from the group. Our server, Alberto, had already brought plates of bread. There was one sitting right in front of me, which I passed down to the end of the table. It looked very good. The ladies all said it was very good. However, my brain was in one of its moods and interpreted the smell of it badly. Trust me- it was just me and not the bread. I ordered Jalapeno Pesto Fazzaletti. I had studied the menu the night before and made my choice after using Google to look up all the words I didn't know. This is what it was: fazzaletti (long sheets of pasta), Peroni pot roast (a HUGE hunk of delicious pot roast cooked in a delicious sauce with a touch of Peroni beer), and cipollini (small flat onions that were delicately pickled). All of this was smothered in a wonderful jalapeno pesto sauce that was thick, rich, and tasty as HELL! I think it was the best Italian food I have ever eaten. Take in mind that I am saying that based on the taste sensations alone. I had never heard of this dish. It was just all the textures and flavors together that sent me off on an explosive taste bud journey. Did I mention that it had goat cheese sprinkled on top? All of the other dishes that the ladies ordered looked equally delicious. Nobody seemed to have any complaints. If I had been with my family, I would have begged for tastes of some of them. I want to talk some more about our server, Alberto. Y'all know how much I like a good server. Alberto was fantastic. His style (and maybe the entire service staff of this venue) was very formal. He served me iced tea while I was in the middle of a conversation without my even noticing. He did some extra things I usually don't see often except in really expensive fine dining establishments. For example, he went around the table shifting everyone's bread plates to make room for the salads. After removing the salad plates, he went around again and took everyone's salad fork and gave the ones eating pasta a large spoon. He also replaced any knives that had been used with clean ones. I thought it was kind of funny. When I was growing up, it was considered vulgar to use a spoon with pasta unless we were at home. On the other hand, Mama would never give us a clean knife or fork at home. You got one and used it the whole time. I give Alberto cudos for being super attentive to everyone's needs without making it obvious. I asked him for a box to go, and he took my plate away and packed my leftovers in a neat black box for me. At first I thought he heard me joking about stealing the pasta bowl (I really liked the shape!), but he packed everyone's leftovers. Well not everyone's. Most people ate all of theirs. I would have, but my diabetic medications won't let me!

The usual dim lit Italian atmosphere. Great company and decently priced wine. The bread with oil and dip was a perfect appetizer, but the eggplant parmesan was to die for. I ordered the lobster ravioli with crushed prosciutto and it was creamy and full of flavor. It paired really well with a side of broccoli, which could have used a little lemon. The waiter did his best with how many people were at the table, moving seats and paying on separate bills. Overall, great experience.

Loved our time at this quaint spot. Although they were super busy and the parking lot almost had no space left they had no trouble seating us. Our server Alberto was knowledgeable and very very helpful. Excellent service all around and the food was extremely delicious. I had the chicken parm and my wife had the fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken. Super yummy. Probably the best chicken parm I've ever had (I am young though!).

Everything is always perfect. Food, drinks, staff etc. Love the 1604 location. Great date night.

Went for my birthday the food was not good and the smell of musty moth balls and dust was just not good, this used to be a go to place but maybe covid I am not sure I do not recommend

This place had been on our list for awhile and we finally made it last night with our dear friends for dinner. Think of an intimate setting - as lights are pretty dim and decor was dark and modern. But, business was busy and tables were bustling with all ranges from families to couples. Our server Reagan was the sweetest and the best! Attentive and informative, she checked on us frequently. They have a very large wine menu, but I opted for the black orchid martini. Went down smooth and the addition of that special black cherry was yummy. I'll have to find those special dark cherries at the store lol Fresh sourdough with olive oil and their house made hummus was complimentary. Bread was nice and soft with a slight crisp on the outside. Menu was small print, so be sure to bring glasses for those of you who can't see like me : D After debating back and forth between the cioppino and the scallops, I went with the scallops. OMG the best decision ever! Beautifully plated, but tastefully excellent. Three large scallops cooked and seasoned to perfection were atop a bed of asparagus. The scallops were melt in your mouth and even the asparagus were cooked to a nice consistency. It came with small semolina crab like croquettes and a pepper sauce. The menu said gnocchi, but it was more of a croquette texture. Nevertheless, the entire plate was delicious. The house salad my dish came with was awesome as well! - Idk what the dressing was, but it was good. Others at the table had the capellini with added chicken- excellent choice! Very tasty with a tiny bit of spice. Beef tenderloin- 4/5 per my friend. It wasn't cooked to her liking and the truffle croquettes didn't give off true truffle flavor. Overall, good food, great service! We'll be back

Such a beautiful restaurant, with amazing ambiance. It definitely gives off higher end vibes, but also great for a casual-ish lunch. I took my little sister, who's probably the most pickiest eater on the planet. She asked for more pasta 3 times, which should tell you how legit Paesanos is. She absolutely loved it so much, and was even asking for it again the next day. I got the Cheese Ravioli with red sauce and it was amazing. The cheese was so flavorful and the sauce was the perfect compliment to the pasta. I hate when places don't give you enough sauce, but you definitely don't have to worry about that here. They give you so much sauce with your pasta, so make sure you ask for extra bread to dip in it. The service was quick, and our drinks were full the entire time. The pasta came out pretty fast too, which was nice. If you're looking for a nice Italian meal, you definitely need to pay a visit to Paesanos.

Oh my Goodness how I love Paesanos Bar!! It was crazy busy tonight but Taylor was simply amazing! His service and knowledge are incomparable to anyone else's! Thank you Taylor! We had the eggplant stack bread and calamari which was all delicious!

Spencer was an amazing knowledgeable and courteous server! The food was fantastic! Will be back! Portions are huge! Loved it

It was ok. Very chic inside...fancy, even. Service was great. Quick to clean up used dishes and refill drinks, though one guy who was cleaning up doesn't seem to know how to smile. Maybe he sees too many snooty people. My lasagna was lackluster, unfortunately. It wasn't very thick. Although the sauce was nice and didn't taste metallic or too acidic, the rest was bland. The description had black angus as the protein, but I tasted nothing except tomato sauce. I'm willing to try something else; my co-diners had more appetizing dishes. Here's to a better meal next time.

While the parking lot appeared to be very crowded when we arrived to Paesanos (1:00PM on Sunday), it wasn't as crowded inside. We were seated right away at a table inside. Both the inside dining area and the outdoor patio were very nice and had a good ambiance. We were brought bread which is served with hummus as well as olive oil w/ seasonings. Butter is available for the bread upon request. The bread was warm and soft (yum) and the hummus was good but did have an unusual flavor to it. I ordered the chicken parmigiana which came with a salad. The salad had cucumbers, croutons, tomatoes and a delicious dressing. The chicken parmigiana was about average with some bites being better than others. I also tried my friend's veal parmigiana which wasn't my favorite - the chicken was much better. The veal seemed to be a tad overcooked. The server did a good job at keeping our drinks full and checking on us. I would definitely go back and try a different dish next time.

A go to place for Italian food and a good time. They accommodate large parties and staff are always attentive and welcoming. Ambiance is always chill and elegant. We tried the steak, sesame crusted tuna, and well known butter/ garlic shrimp pasta dish. All were delicious.

Had the Shrimp Paesano for lunch. Great size portion and was able to share. Quick and prompt service. Do wish they had something other than soda for non-alcoholic.

I love the shrimp paesano here! It's always consistently good. I also a lot of their martinis. I had a lemon drop on happy hour and it was good!

I had a recent business lunch here and my organization reserved one of the private rooms on the upper level for several hours. I highly recommend if you need a private room with service for a few hours at a reasonable price (no rental fee just a food & bev minimum that was very reasonable). Throughout my organization's 4-hour meeting, the staff was perfectly timed with when they entered the room to refresh drinks, bread, begin food service, etc. and our wait staff super friendly and accommodating. I ordered the pork chop as my entree and really enjoyed the hearty portion size and super delicious marinade the pork was prepared in. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a business lunch and I would gladly return.

The shrimp Paesano is fantastic. Just typing this my mouth is watering. The menu is extensive and everything is amazing! You will go back over and over again!

Great food! The shrimp paesano was amazing! Recommend greatly. Oyster (appetizer) was so delicious had to order a second one. The server (believe his name was Adrian) was absolutely attentive and very friendly. Place was very nice.

Beautiful Italian restaurant with creative menu options and delicious food. Our server was attentive throughout and gave us good advice. A specialty is Shrimp Paesanos, either as an appetizer or entree. We shared a Caesar Salad and the bread offerings were outstanding! My Eggplant Parmesan was very good flavor, but a tad overwhelmed with way too much cheese and housemade Marina. Delicious, but needed more eggplant. But I'd go again. . .

Had a very nice time at this location yesterday, service was good, food was very well prepared. We had our company dinner meeting here , over 20 people attended. Staff was very attentive and engaged with us. I had the 4 cheese ravioli and meatballs which were amazing. Meatballs had a good kick of spice which I enjoyed, lots of flavor Great drink and wine selection, amazing appetizers. The cherry peppers stuffed with goat cheese were fabulous. The restaurant itself is upscale rustic, great vibe with good food and service. Well done

This paesanos on 1604 is a far cry from the original one. The food isnt even close to as good and the menu isn't the same. Against my better judgment today, because I was in town, I went to the 1604 restaurant. The shrimp was waaaay overcooked, the tomato sauce for my pasta wasn't even close to what it tastes like at the original restaurant. I know this is an upscale Place and I have no problem paying for it, but I was soooo disappointed. I am every time I go there. I don't know why I thought this time would be different. I don't know if it's the same owner, but yuck. I have NEVER had a complaint for the original restaurant. What a waste of money and time

This is the best Italian food in San Antonio and the fettuccini margaret is creamy and delicious,, so good! We Can't wait to visit and grab lunch here out on the tropical patio!

I've been here a couple times as a guest for a birthday dinner with 10+ people and the service is amazing! The servers are so quick and the food comes out sooo fast. I ordered the Fettuccine Alfredo with Grilled Chicken. It's delicious and the portion size is perfect. They bring out your drinks immediately and are very efficient with refills. They also box your food up to go for you making the entire experience more enjoyable with the people I'm eating with since they handle it all. It was very packed the times I've been and the waitlist is always pretty long but the vibe of the restaurant is still great. I completely forgot about the long wait the second we sat down since they were so on top of things. Definitely recommend!

We came here late in the afternoon on a Sunday. It was pretty busy, but we were sat right away. The main dining room was large and it looked like there might have been some addition rooms with more seating. The restaurant is off a side road and has a large parking lot. There was complimentary bread with oil and herbs. The bread was warm and crusty. My wife got the baked ziti bolognese and I got the cioppino. We both really enjoyed our food. The food came out quick and the portions were generous. Our server was very attentive and gave us a wonderful experience.

The service was amazing! Reagan was our server and she was personable and attentive, we enjoyed her. The food was very good, they brought bread, olive oil and hummus for dipping. I felt the olive oil had a strong bitter flavor but the hummus was good with a lighter flavor. The drinks were good but I expected the Pineapple Chipotle Margarita to have more spice (heat). Our meals were tasty, I ordered my steak medium to slight well and felt it was a little on the dry side as they cooked it more on the well side and the truffle croquettes weren't as favorful as I thought they'd be but it was still all good. The other meal, scallops, were very good, cooked perfectly. The restaurant itself was clean, had lots of seating, and food arrived fairly quickly. I gave 4 stars because I feel my meal and drink could have been better but it won't keep me from going back and trying something else.

My friends and I met for Happy Hour this past week and we were baffled that this situation was allowed by management. We were sitting having our appetizers and drinks. The bar was quite full and a gentleman came over and offered to buy us drinks. Of course, we were flattered and two of us (out of 3) ordered second drinks. Fast forward to us getting our checks and paying, Apparently we were charged for these drinks and when we questioned it, the waitress told us "oh yeah, he was just trying to help us out"...meaning what??? She was embarrassed and offered to take it off our checks and we were embarrassed as well to be questioning it and gave in and paid for the extra drinks. Why is this scam allowed and isn't this lowlife behavior? Apparently, it is allowed and the waitress was "in on it"...??? Love to hear from Paesano management since we are regulars and it sure takes a nice establishment to low depths...

Cools place Small bar area God for groups Service is good Beverage selection is par for this kind of place Would not go out of my way to come here but wouldn't mind eat there again to see what the menu has to offer I was here with a large group and had limited options but were al very acceptable no complaints

FOOD: very good SERVICE: excellent AMBIENCE: below average due to extremely poor acoustics PRICE: good VALUE: good Definitely would not go back and sit indoors because you have to yell to be heard by the diner next to you. Outdoor seating is a better option, weather permitting.

Always so tasty!!! Servers were very attentive to our large party of 12 for my graduation! Ambiance is always so cozy and warm in there

The service was over the top here. I asked them for a specific type of wine and they went out of their way to bring it over from the bar to our group event. The Tenderloin Steaks were delicious. And the cheesecake was fantastic. I'm looking forward to going here again Ben

My family has been a fan of Paesano's since the 70's. We went today to the 1604 location. We were disappointed. The service was excellent but the food was almost bland. Their signature dish "shrimp paesano" lacked garlic, butter and lemon. The house salad is what you would expect from your local diner. In previous days, their house salad had artichokes, water chestnuts, black olives, a creamy Italian dressing and more. Please bring back the recipes of old.

Very disappointing. Waited about 40 mins to get our food. Calamari was very bland. The rest of the food we ordered were aight. Will not go back.
