Yummy, came on multiple times and the food was great both times prime rib was good. Service was good. Food was delicious. Interior was awesome. Haven't been here in a while since it was owned by other people but now I feel like it's finally great. We will be coming back. I definitely recommend this place. read more

After hearing good things about the food getting better from the first time we tried it... decides to give it another shot. We definitely won't be back. The Tuscan wings were soggy. The veal saltimbocca was inedible, it tasted like chemicals. The lemon berry cheesecake was alright but nothing that would bring us back. read more

I so wanted this to be 5 Stars. The atmosphere and staff was a definite 5 Star , but Prime Rib (that was a special) was sent back and they still served it raw. I know the difference between medium rare and raw, this was raw (twice) read more

Great local Italian food. Bar pizza. We always have great service and we love trying the rotating specials always fresh tasty.

We hadn't been to Paisano's in Kingston in a while, so we figured we'd give the restaurant another visit and are we glad we did! Fresh, house-made focaccia and dipping oil started our meal and then we shared the coconut shrimp appetizer and it was delicious. My companion had the spinach salad and it too was delicious. I had the Veal Saltimboca and it was super. Five stars all around. Super service was provided by our waitress Sam. Ambiance was very comfortable with lowered lights and crisp tablecloths and cloth napkins. We had a great bottle of Sancerre which complimented our meals well. Live music at a perfect volume level was provided by John Foster on vocals and guitar. He should not be missed. Prices were on the very affordable side considering the quality of the food and size of the portions. The very varied menu gives diners many items to choose from and a daily separate specials menu gives even more. We will be back! Well done, Paisano's! read more

A good sized bar and a get tvs (no keno). The bartender Chrissy was a wealth of information and a very personable person. I would to back just to have her as my bartender/ server. The charcuterie board looks great but only served after 4:00. Have to go back in the night to check out some other food options! read more

I'm sorry for this review. Let me start with the positive things. Love the fact that this corner restaurant is back up and running. The bread that served is excellent the wine list is limited but was a good pour and cold. The charcuterie board we ordered had great meats and cheeses. That's about where the positive ended. We did express our concerns to the owner and he's aware of this review but I have to post it here because I want this place to survive The charcuterie board didn't have any crackers to eat the meats and cheeses our waiter was very kind but had limited or no training on how to serve a meal. We kept hearing the place was packed but honestly it really wasn't that crowded. We asked for more crackers and got Ritz peanut butter crackers interesting Here's my suggestion you need to get a really good food supplier for both your Seafood and your Meats whoever you're using is not doing you any justice. The Boston Cod piccata should be removed from the menu until you have a better choice of seafood. We didn't receive the correct meal and when speaking to other people around us two other tables also complained about their steak tips I'll come back and sit at the bar and maybe get an appetizer but your staff needs some serious training thank you and I really hope it improves read more

I came for an app and a few drinks. Food is amazing, restaurant is very classy and beautiful it was super busy and food still came out prompt and beautiful..I will say not a lot of personality from staff or bar staff but food is good enough to ignore that! read more

Paisanos has quickly become one of my favorite go to spots for a nice meal on the South Shore. The inside of the restaurant is beautiful and every meal I've had there so far has been delicious. Tonight I was particularly impressed though. My amazing server, Eduardo, suggested I order the special tonight, which was Picanha and oh my god...it was so good! I normally don't order steak if I'm not at a steakhouse but I'm glad I listened to Eduardo. I'm hoping they add this to the menu permanently read more

Paisano's kingston - VEAL SALTIMBOCCA - Italian Near Me - Kingston, Massachusetts

The WORST veal marsala I have ever tried. As I live here, I had ordered it as a carry out. I am very sorry I ordered it. It had one small piece of veal, which was so over cooked it was like shoe leather, along with about four or five mushroom pieces. The sauce itself, which normally is one of my favorite, was absolutely tasteless. I couldn't pick up any taste of Marsala, so I went to my wine closet, selected some and heated it up very slightly, adding it to the "sauce". It did taste slightly better with the addition, but it still was rather repugnant, so I threw it all in the trash. The original Paisanos had been wonderful. This new place, not so much. At the very least, stay away from the Veal Marsala. I have photos of it on my plate and in my trash, if anyone wants them. read more

Tried this place twice, won't be returning. The first time was recently after it opened, the food was really not good. Figured we would give it a bit & try again. 2nd time the chicken parm had a bone in it & the seafood pasta dish was terrible (all the seafood was cooked to death). The staff is nice, although both times there was no hostess at the front and we had to wait a while for someone to show up & seat us. read more

Had been many many years ago and went tonight with a gift card and was extremely pleased with everything! Absolutely amazing service from Mason, food was quick and well plated, loved the updated look and the quiet music made the ambiance! Finished the meal with the Nutella churros and will definitely be coming back! read more

Had fish n chips. Substituted roasted potatoes instead of fries. Haddock was very good, but smallish portion size. I will definitely go back. Good drinks. 7:30 ish and out of prime rib special which was my first choice. All in all will go back read more

Food was amazing! Our waiter Eduardo did a good job but was not annoying. We got shrimp and scallop fra diavlo and a seafood rissotto. Each dish was amazing and perfectly cooked. So hard to cook so many different seafoods and have them all perfect! The blueberry ricotta cheesecake was excellent and even though it was $8 it was more than enough for two people! Please go here! I want this place to be open for a long time! read more

The server was very accommodating and always checked back to make sure everything was okay. The ambiance was relaxing and made me feel comfortable. Food portions were generous. Everything came out quickly and presentation was beautiful. I would definitely return. read more

We ventured off Cape Cod to experience Paisano's and are we happy we did ! The restaurant is a welcoming environment with modern decor and friendly staff The best part was the food. The Cioppino is a must! Lots of fresh seafood and lobster raviolis. The Clam chowder the perfect balance of clam taste and creaminess. We will go back to try some of the other entrees that looked so good passing by our table ! read more

Let's start with the positive. Staff was very welcoming. Our server was very friendly, helpful and just a nice guy. Bar looked very cool with low leather seats on one side and bar stools on the other. Gas fireplaces in the side room. We ordered the arancini and the meatballs for apps to share. Both of which were very good and the highlight of the experience. Taste was an 8.5 out of 10. Good job! The entrees were a different story. My wife got the chicken parm, while I got the Veal marsala. Both were heavily under seasoned. We both tried each others meal and asked each other what we though. Same answer on both sides. Not sure what is going on the kitchen, but every chef should be tasting what they are putting out. Just glancing over the reviews, this seems to be the default. So sad and so easy to fix. I also got a dirty martini which I could tell by the clarity was not dirty at all. Olive brine is expensive, I get it, but, make an attempt. The salads that came with the meal were also on the brink of being frozen and had barely any dressing on them. You could tell these were all premade and then covered with a wrap and then stacked in a cooler. We had 3 bites and then put it to the side. Disappointing to say the least. It was our first time here. We tried but will not be going back. read more

This was our second visit and we were pleasantly surprised. The bartender was friendly and professional and we were both pleased with our meals. read more

I ordered one of the specials, chicken carbonara. what I got was fettuccine Alfredo. No pancetta, no flavor, chicken medallions were pale, not seared, did I say no flavor? Pasty. Creme sauce was present, but pasty and .......wait for it, no flavor, actually a black hole of flavor. the specials menu stated the this dish was "made the right way with egg yolks".......absolutely not true. I suppose if I was 95 with the taste tolerance of wallpaper paste (which would probably have more flavor) I would enjoy this shallow serving dish of rudimentary gruel. I am still seeking the perfect carbonara on the south shore like I would expect and get in the North end, and being an optimist I still hope that will happen some day. Waitress Meghan was great, no need to punish the messenger. lesson for Paisanos is that just because you have cooks in the kitchen and a nice bar and dining room, please please please don't be disrespectful to Italian Heritage and push out what you think is food unless you really know what you are claiming to be authentic. Most importantly, taste what you are producing or at least have someone with some Italian pride approve of the flavor profiles for your fare. read more

Pisano's in Kingston was such a delight. The service was amazing. We had Krista who was very attentive, kind, and friendly as well. The steak tips with fries and asparagus were delicious. The chicken parmigiana with linguini was scrumptious! We will certainly be back. The fireplace was cozy! It was a lovely evening at Pisanos! read more

Excellent experience.. Perfect ambiance in a beautiful remodel! The Wine selection is amazing (and the staff is knowledgeable!) + the cocktails are delicious! Best Italian restaurant in the area.. by far! read more

Ordered take out expecting one of the old menu items to be as fantastic as it used to me. I thought wrong. No one wants to dig out jumbo shrimp with tails from a fettuccini dish. The serving size was small for $28. The sauce was meh. The old dish had small shrimp (no tails) and small scallops. Made no sense to have giant hunks of seafood in a pasta dish. I was expecting better. Hopeful they improve since they opened recently. Maybe they are working out some quirks. The inside of the restaurant looked nice. read more

I have ordered the steak tips meal twice. Both times I felt the steak tips were very bland. Also I got asparagus with the meal and both times, it only included three pieces. For the price, there should be at least five pieces of asparagus. It does the job but could be better. read more

Mediocre food. Bland. Presentation is nice but does not live up to the expectations. Old tired facility. Wish they updated the place. Oh well best of luck to them read more

This is the second time being in since it has reopened as Paisano's. I am told that these are new owners. Both visits were on a Wednesday night., and sat at the bar. I wasn't going to come back. My first time in a bartender was so rude and bossy to the other bartender Wendy that the poor girl had tears in her eyes. I felt so bad for her. We knew Wendy from another restaurant that she worked at. I wish I said something but wasn't sure what was going on. I decided to give it another try because the food was tasty and the atmosphere was nice. For this visit I had the Caesar salad to start. It was good but they put tomatoes, olives and pepeccinis on it, which is weird. My friends met me and we shared a few plates. We had a Pepperoni with hot honey flat bread. It was very good. And a couple of other appetizers. I'm still not a fan of that Wednesday night bartender. She's just snappy and rude. She kept interrupting us. So next visit will be on a different night. read more

The food was good. Overpriced. The atmosphere is a bit strange. Not very comfortable. Our server, Anna, was attentive and friendly. Should have had a busser on as it was busy for a Tuesday. read more

Excellent food, fast and efficient service, a great place to get together with family and friends, not to mention that they have a cellar with high quality wines. I highly recommend it and I will come back often with my family. read more

We were excited to see Paisano's re-open in Kingston as it used to be one of our favorite places to eat back many years ago. On the plus side, the inside is very nice with brick wall accents and a nice wine-display. We went on a Saturday at 5pm and we had the section to ourselves which is fine but it isn't a good sign, but we wanted to use a gift card. Our party was three and the drinks were very good (Chianti red wine and sangria). However they shouldn't bother with the free bread and olive oil. The bread was very bad and lacked any taste which is sort of the theme here. Our dishes were the seafood special which had lobster, scallops and swordfish on risotto. The dish was very poorly done with very little taste and the swordfish was nearly unedible, they must have microwaved it. The risotto had nearly no taste to it (and no, we don't have COVID). The white sauce linguini was only average with very little zest to it or flavor. The chicken parm was well-prepared and my daughter liked that dish. Outside of the drinks and just average chicken parm, we cannot recommend this despite our desire to see the place succeed. read more
