At Di Paolo’s our journey began with our beloved grandparents, Maria & Albert Di Paolo, who humbly opened a family pizzeria and small grocery store known as Italian Kitchen. As the aroma of freshly baked pizzas and the taste of homemade sauce filled the air, they, along with our father, Michael Di Paolo, expanded, adding more seating to accommodate our growing clientele.
Before long, the bustling atmosphere and the buzz of the satisfied customers prompted them to evolve into a full-fledged restaurant where families and friends could gather to enjoy well portioned Abruzzese meals and lively conversation, while being entertained with live music throughout the restaurant.
What truly sets us apart is our commitment to treating every guest like family. Whether you’re a regular patron or visiting us for the first time, you’ll always be welcomed with open arms and genuine warmth. Come join us at Di Paolo’s, where good food and good company come together to create unforgettable memories.

    This was my second time having Elvis as a server and he’s amazing. We were celebrating my dad's 70th birthday and my family not only enjoyed the food but the atmosphere and service.

    We had a lovely experience! The food was delicious! Our reservation was honored in a timely fashion as it was very busy. The service was excellent! The only downside is the tables are pretty close together. Otherwise, we had a great experience and will return.

    Husband and I went for the 3 course special. The waiter (Elvis) was the same waiter we had once before 7 weeks ago. He not only remembered us, he actually remembered what we both drank! He was very attentive and professional just like before. The food was delicious and the portions were large. I had the veal parm and pasta with the caesar salad. The dressing was so good I could drink it. Husband had the stuffed flounder with the asparagus and mashed potatoes (which he really enjoyed) the strawberry cheesecake and rum cake topped off our meals. All were delicious and a great value as I had left overs too. I highly recommend Dipaolos. It’s worth the 45 minute drive.

    Table cloth had a black ring dirt mark on it when we sat down. Our server saw me trying to wipe it clean but didn't offer a new table cloth. We were seated where all of the servers had to pass our table which didn't make for a nice dinner especially when a server dropped something right by our table. Food is very pricey BUT very good.y
