Chef Paolino

I love that Chef Paolino offers a variety of pasta and pizza dishes. I especially love their spaghetti. It tastes like the one I had when I visited Italy. I know its a simple dish, but to me you can judge the quality of a place by how their traditional simple food is. The sauce is made fresh and the pasta is served with a smile. Definitely a place to try for high-quality homemade Italian food.

One of the few things I miss about working downtown is Chef Paolino's (or, as we affectionately call it, Pao-Paos). Located just a couple blocks from the Harbor in the Bank of America building, Chef Paolinos offers great tasting pizza, subs, and pasta for the same price as fast food. The italian cold cut is absolutely amazing, especially on the hot, crusty Italian bread. They have daily specials that encourage you to test out the menu. The lines get long at lunch time, but the staff move things along quickly. Really one of the best!
