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.

    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

    Food was decent, but not earth shattering. We had the buffet and it was just OK.

    We have been to DiPaolo’s numerous times and we have never been disappointed. I always order the calamari with hot peppers because it’s the only place I KNOW that I won’t end up with a plate of rubber bands. It’s always tender. The food is always delicious, the drinks are always well made and the service is always friendly. What more could you want? You can never go wrong here.

    The chicken parmesan was as expected, subperb ! The aldente, spicy cavdetelli bolognese was just that, yet meaty and flavorful with a dolop of fresh and creamy ricotta for a winning combination ! Our waiter was charming, knowledgeable, prompt and extremely professional. The service was impeccable. We had a uniquely positive dining experience ! Highly recommend DiPaolo's.
