"The wood oven pizza spot is open for takeout, delivery, and curbside pickup. It’s offering a combined menu along with its sister restaurant, Longbranch, next door, which is also offering wine and beer, including growler fill-ups." - Luke Tsai

Great ambiance and very friendly staff. Started with a Cesar Salad and Cheese Curds (both yum) and ordered salmon with couscous and summer pizza at the bar where we watched the Olympics. Salmon was deliciously cooked the couscous had a delectable light flavor to it. Pizza crust was cooked perfectly crisp and toppings were light and flavorful. Will definitely return, especially to try the desserts

Good place for dinner, but little underwhelmed overall. The ambience is decent, and the best part is mellow music that doesn't drown your voice. However, in terms of food and the whole package, we were left wanting for more... We ordered some wine, baked pasta, heirloom tomato pasta and tiramisu. The pasta was delicious! ...but, a very small portion. And tiramisu was very generic.

Good, unique pizza. The crust is really biscuity and tasty -- would complement meat toppings very well. I was disappointed in the margherita, however. It was basically a cheese pizza. Should be renamed to a cheese pizza. Apparently, the paisan pizza is much more in line with a traditional margherita. Regardless, I'd still happily go back to try a different pizza next time. Beautiful atmosphere with great drink options ( wine, beer, cocktails ). Great spot for a date night!

Loved loved loved PAISAN! Had my wedding reception here of 80 guests and it was beautiful, everything was perfect, food was amazing (all my guests kept saying so!) & the manager that day and the servers were all so accommodating to us and any last minute requests we needed. They even allowed us to set up the night before after the restaurant closed, thank you Paisan!

You can never go wrong with their pizza. My favorite is the potato and pancetta. I love risotto, so I couldn't pass it up on this last visit... and I'm glad I got it! It was very flavorful and filling. Parking can be tough since its located on a busy street (San Pablo), but its definitely worth your patience finding a spot.

I really liked this place. It was recommended by the owner of ohmega II lighting and he was right on the money. Very relaxing atmosphere, wonderful staff, beautiful patio, reasonably priced and incredibly delicious. The Bolognese was paired with the valplolicella, a recommendation by my waiter, which really complimented the complex flavors of their Bolognese. I love this place and will be back soon.

Paisan serves great pizza and pasta. It’s food is high end but approachable especially for families. My favorite pie is the Italian (Sausage, Broccoli Rabe, Carmelized Onion). Street parking turns over somewhat quickly so be patient if you’re driving around.
