"Walking to Paulie's was one of our favorite things to do when we lived around the corner. We've since moved, but will always go back for their hand-made pastas. There is nothing regular about their regular-sized pasta dishes (pictured is one-half of the serving), so keep that in mind when you have eyes bigger than your stomach. It makes a great lunch the next day. A must for your dining experience, I'm not even joking, is to drink the cucumber water. It's so refreshing during a Houston scorcher. They also have wine, coffee, and desserts. If you're not looking for a full dining experience, head next door to their bar called Camerata." - Curiosity and Curiosities
"The fairly standard casual Italian counter-service cafe Paulie’s serves a menu of fresh pasta, smashed paninis, massive salads, plates of piccata, and personal-sized pizzas. Everything tastes pretty good, especially seeing how generous the portions are compared to the price. We appreciate that you can grab lunch solo, split a few glasses of wine with your fellow fettuccine freaks for a casual dinner, or whatever combination of food and meal in between. Make sure to grab a cookie to-go." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"Paulie’s, a casual Italian restaurant in Montrose, makes filling your body with delicious pasta quick, easy, and affordable. Because sometimes, that’s all you really want. Order at the counter, throw back some mozzarella paninis, and get fancy with chicken piccata. Or just grab a big bowl of canestri alla funghi and enjoy the extra toast to pull the last bits of sauce. Now that’s romance." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
"Slinging filling portions of homemade pasta, salads, soups, sandwiches, and more since 1998, this family-owned Montrose cafe is known for its comforting and affordable Italian eats. Stop in for a classic hoagie, or stay awhile with a dish like the canestri alla funghi, a creamy mushroom pasta. Pro-tip for groups: Order the half portions of multiple pastas and share." - Marcy de Luna
"Paulie’s, a casual Italian restaurant in Montrose, makes filling up with delicious pasta quick, easy, and affordable. Because sometimes, that’s all you really want. Order at the counter, throw back a mozzarella panini and an iced coffee for a quick lunch. Or grab a big bowl of canestri alla funghi because every order of pasta is so large you might need a crane to air-lift it to the table, so there will definitely be enough leftovers for your roommates." - gianni greene, chelsea thomas
